Duncan Robinson now has 117 threes in 51 playoff games for Miami, tying him for second place in franchise history. LeBron made 123 in 87 games, Mario Chalmers 117 in 99 games.
On top of Robinson and Strus, the Heat also have black players Caleb Martin and Gabe Vincent getting playoff minutes after starting their careers undrafted. Head coach Erik Spoelstra started with the team in 1995 as a video coordinator and was eventually promoted all the way up from within. The Miami franchise does a tremendous job across the board in identifying talent compared to an average NBA team - no big surprise they are playing four whites in the conference finals, with two more (Herro and Jovic) on the extended roster (plus Yurtseven).
Duncan Robinson and Max Strus helped the Miami Heat to take a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals. They could clinch the series in a
sweep if they hold home court. Even if they win 1 of the next 2 games in Miami, the Heat have an excellent chance to return to the finals. Now
we can only hope that Tyler Herro's broken hand can finish healing to see him back on the court!
