Jimmy Butler not in to start the second half. He’s on the Heat’s bench.
Appears that Butler is done for the night. – 9:02 PM

Halftime: Heat 61, Nets 43
Nets missing Kyrie Irving (paternity leave) and Joe Harris (ankle precaution), but against a solid Heat defense, Brooklyn’s offense has struggled. KD has 18 on 6/7 FG but no other Net has more than 6.
Nets have 6 assists. Miami has 19. 12 TO’s for BKN – 8:50 PM

Real nice half for Heat rookie Jamal Cain in Brooklyn. 12 points on 5-for-5 shooting with five rebounds in 15 minutes. Active on both ends. Heat lead Nets 61-43. – 8:46 PM

What a showing from Jamal Cain in this first half
Really good stuff
Even forgetting the 12 points on 5 for 5 shooting, he’s doing all the right things in all the right spots
He’s fitting their system VERY early on – 8:45 PM

As expected, Heat’s leading scorers at moment are Bam Adebayo and . . . Duncan Robinson and Jamal Cain. – 8:44 PM

The Oklahoma City Thunder do a lot of things well already, almost everything, besides shooting three’s. Which tonight, they are blitzing the nets from deep. This roster is starting to come together. – 8:42 PM

Worth keeping in mind: While likes of Dru Smith and Jamal Cain figure to remain within Heat umbrella at G League Sioux Falls, they also will be free to be signed by any NBA team once waived by Heat, including being claimed off waivers. Heat do not have room below tax to retain. – 8:40 PM

Jamal Cain up to 10 points, five rebounds and two steals in 12 impressive minutes.
Cain was a four-star recruit in 2016. There’s talent there. 6-7 with a 6-9.5 wingspan and shot 35% on 3s in college. Raw, but he’ll be coached up in Sioux Falls. – 8:37 PM

Jamal Cain is an energy guy
But he’s showing to be a productive guy as well
So active on boards, lengthy enough to bother defensively vs different positions, and has decent touch on put backs
10 points on 4 of 4 shooting/5 boards rn – 8:36 PM

It’s really wild how every lineup thrown out there for Miami has been on an absolute string defensively
Switches and rotations have been so solid – 8:29 PM

Good opening 8-minute stint for Nikola Jovic: Five points on 2/3, 4 assists and 2 rebounds. Probably the most comfortable he’s looked. – 8:27 PM

Kyrie Irving, seated on the baseline, is in the house. The #Nets offense, however, is absent. Brooklyn just 4-of-14 from deep and trailing 45-29. – 8:23 PM

The Heat have opened a 17-point lead in Brooklyn early in the second quarter. Nets playing without Harris, Curry and Kyrie, and they just don’t really have any other way to win without shooting on the floor. – 8:20 PM

Last season, the Heat subbed out Marcus Garrett’s two-way in favor of Kyle Guy (with Garrett injured). Could there be a similar fate this time around, with Dru Smith looking sharp these past two weeks? – 8:20 PM

The Heat have run up a 43-26 lead here at the 8:09 mark of the second quarter. Nets still finding their offensive flow, while the Heat have had their philosophies down for years.
The Sixers led 42-26 at the end of Q1 on Monday. – 8:19 PM

Ben Simmons turned the ball over 3 times and recorded 0 assists in 10 minutes of play in the first quarter. The Heat are anticipating a pass — because Simmons doesn’t look to score — are denying heavy and playing the passing lanes.

Perfect timing
In this, I asked him about wanting to guard team’s best players
He made it clear that’s what he’s about
