Terry Rozier’s debut just another lost night for Heat as skid hits four in 105-96 failure vs. Grizzlies

MIAMI – The Miami Heat did not look Wednesday night like a team that needed a trade to find its footing in the Eastern Conference playoff race. It looked like a team that needed three or four. Even with Terry Rozier making his debut after being acquired Tuesday from the Charlotte Hornets for Kyle Lowry and a first-round pick, the Heat continued to have the look of a team stuck in midseason doldrums. Against an injury ravaged Memphis Grizzlies roster that arguably had just one NBA-level starter available, the Heat fell 105-96 at Kaseya Center to extend their losing streak to four. The Heat got...

Broward needs a new 911 center, leaders agree. But where should it be built?

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 24, 2024. Posted in Crime and Public Safety, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Local News, News.

Broward taxpayers are likely to fund a new facility to house the county’s 911 dispatch center. But finding the right location, in part, could hinge on who would retain oversight of the services. Sheriff Gregory Tony appealed to county commissioners Tuesday with his proposal for a seven-story parking garage, a four-story, 62,750-square-foot building housing a 911 call center and an 11,800-square-foot, on-site day care for up to 100 children of Sheriff’s Office employees. About 85% of the employees are women, Tony said. He wants the new complex to be built alongside the sheriff’s headquarters...

A targeted shooting in Plantation on Saturday night unfolded outside of a Best Buy, the bullets flying in the parking lot and into the store — killing a 17-year-old boy and injuring three others, including uninvolved bystanders. The victim who died was identified by his father as Terrance Farrington Jr., called “TJ” by friends and family. He was in 11th grade at Youth Under Construction Youth Center, a private K-12 school for at-risk youth in Pompano Beach. Farrington Jr. and three others walked out of the store at 12301 W.

Johnny Dawkins’ poor-shooting UCF prepares for visit from WVU

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 23, 2024. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Sports, UCF Knights.

UCF basketball coach Johnny Dawkins’ message after every game this season, win or lose, has been that his team is learning and it has to respond to what it has learned with each succeeding challenge. At Houston on Saturday, the Knights failed miserably at one part of the learning process but on another front they responded well. So it’s difficult to judge these Knights (11-6, 2-3 Big 12) as they head into another tough conference game Tuesday at 7 p.m. at home against a revitalized West Virginia squad. Controversial transfer Mikey Williams not allowed to enroll at UCF for months | Commentary The...

General Daily Insight for January 23, 2024 Discipline versus impulsiveness: this is today’s fight.

Later on, the Moon snaps at both thoughtful Mercury and driven Mars, setting off an impulsive energy within that can get us in trouble if we act on it too quickly. Do the right thing, not the rushed thing. Aries March 21 – April 19 You’re putting...

Winderman’s view: Time for the next Heat thing after Jovic?

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 22, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, Miami Heat Blog, NBA, Sports.

ORLANDO — Observations and other notes of interest from Sunday night’s 105-87 loss to the Orlando Magic: – In a meritocracy, what now with Nikola Jovic? – Sunday was the 10th consecutive start. – With diminishing returns. – Yes, more size than Caleb Martin or Haywood Highsmith at the four. – But also with zero attention from opposing defenses. – For some teams, the reasoning would be as simple as allowing for growing pains. – But this is not a lottery team. – Or a team in the midst of a long-term plan. – This is a win-now team. – Amid a closing Jimmy Butler window. – Developmental program? –...

ORLANDO – The Miami Heat’s offense has fallen, and it can’t get up. Unable to either control or shoot the ball, Erik Spoelstra’s team fell to its third consecutive loss Sunday night, this time a 105-87 setback at the hands of the Orlando Magic at Kia Center. “It definitely looks bad, it feels bad, but we’ve got to get through it,” guard Tyler Herro said. Shooting .375 from the field and committing 18 turnovers, the Heat continued their slide to the bottom of the league in offensive efficiency, with a season low in points and field goals. Not only has the shift into the starting lineup of forward...
