Miami survived Jimmy Butler's absence and Kyle Lowry's ejection to win in Portland, a game that brought several topics to light:

-- PJ Tucker's continued growth beyond stable vet

-- Omer Yurtseven's string of statlines

-- Tyler Herro's shooting struggles while playmaking

And mostly, how do you put Max Strus back on the bench, after another strong game as a spot starter? And what does that mean for Duncan Robinson long-term?
