A lot of the comments were directed towards Haslem playing off the bench, or just sitting the game out. Many asked him to retire, or just take up a coaching spot and help others win. However, judging by what Haslem has to say for himself, the 41-year-old is not going away for at least some time.

Is Haslem a legend for Miami?

Fans did defend Haslem as well. However, there is truth in him playing fewer games now. Since the 2016-17 season, Haslem has only played 58 games. He has been with the team since 2003 and is certainly a valuable star for the community. While some joked about him taking up coaching, many fans pointed out what being in Miami, and losing in Miami, actually means for Haslem.
