Chuck prolly mad as hell. Prolly just wanna start vaca and go golfing already.

a less talented 8 seed team riding super hot 3 point shooting,
gets a 3-0 lead on a more talented opponent with bad 3 point shooting luck.

and the the team up 3-0 team loses a key contributor to injury?


if it's ever going to happen this would be the scenario.

Heat are still favourites but they will be underdogs in a game 7 you gotta think.

gabe gonna be good to go sat?

7 assist with 10 TO’s. What made Heat good the first couple games was there ball movement. It’s all ISO now

Heat better not let it get to 7, the C’s are gonna be WAY too pumped evening the series out. Id say thats a blowout.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

another thing is "more than the sum of their parts" type teams are actually really susceptible to injury.

a top heavy team can afford to lose a role player or two, they aren't contributing all that much,

but the Miami Heat needs all those guys to be good.
Gabe Vincent is a tough loss.

I think you have to call out Jimmy and Lowry in that first half. Jimmy has played terribly in the two close out games

 

[Brownstone]

Heat win at home on Saturday imo, but kudos to Boston for not folding, I still think this game will be close at the end, Heat usually make a run in the second half

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I really don't want the Celtics to win, I hate the way they play.

 

[HIM]

spo getting outcoached again. Don’t let him blow a 3-0 lead…

 

[Mister Meaner]

Heats playing with their meats huh

 

[a-friend]

As an NBA fan the only downside in this is that we're gonna get an uncompetitive finals. The nuggets are gonna kill the heat.

If CELTICs win this before the 4th even starts….

 

[noblekane]

its gonna happen...

 

[aepps20]

Heat have to be worried because part of their lead in this series was they didn’t let Boston believe they could compete with their mental toughness. You can’t give a team like Boston hope because they IMO were the most talented team in the NBA most of the year.

ESPN's BPI looking at all its mentions the past week

Thats why im sayinggggg, do not let a game 7 happen. Thats gonna be too much pressure on the Heat and a TON of confidence for the C’s.

I really don't want the Celtics to win, I hate them and anybody that loves em.

 

[aepps20]

Spo goofed by starting Lowry and running the offense through Bam

 

[nikekid6]

Cmon cs. Saturday… and Monday is a holiday!

 

[noblekane]

Boston can't keep shooting like this....

oh yes they can.

series looking OVER

 

[antidope]

Bam Adebayo is really not that guy. Don’t get it

Bam Adebayo is a fraud

Legit don't know what people see in him.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Imagine if this series comes down to a game 7 Jimmy 3..

Bam aint that guy. He aint a #2 option on a contender IMO.

 

[KingdomFlatbush]

Kicking myself for not betting on this one.
