I said that after game 1. The Heat only chance is letting Jokic whoop their ass and letting others have to earn it.

Yeah...

Seems like the best plan of action is to let Jokic have the bucket and make someone not named Jamal Murray beat them on the perimeter. Lot of talking heads and NBA old heads said it's better to let Jokic score than to facilitate.

We were the number one 3P shooting team and number 1 seed last year, with this same core. :francis:

You’ve been a victim of the moment for like 4 series straight lol

incorrect…I half assed watched the knicks series…and didn’t really pay attention to miami until the last round in which they almost gave up a 3-0 series lead…so yeah I was still sketchy on the team especially after game 1…you’ve watched them all season as a loyal fan…of course you have a better perspective re: the team than I do

Honestly, Denver defense wasn't much better in Game 1. Miami missed a lot of open shots and were overreacting to Jokic. As long as they settled down on defense and stopped turning the ball over, they would always be in this game.

Don't know what's up with this idea that the Nuggets are unbeatable. Heat can somehow beat the #1 and #2 teams in the league but can't be competitive with the Nuggets :comeon:

That was their first win in Denver since 2016, btw

Joker getting a foul at the 3 point line when Bam didnt foul him doesnt show up on the box score either :manny:

Yeah that was a disgraceful call.

Remember when Butler was CLEARLY out of bounds, kicked it out to Vincent who drained a 3 and every ref missed it?

shyt happens on both ends. Fact is Miami got way more favourable calls tonight. It happens :yeshrug:

That letting Joker score rhetoric has some weight but Heat barely won. Need Murray and MPJ to play a lot better and show up consistently in these Finals.
