The Cs Dispatched The MVP & Now Face Super Saiyan Jimmy! | Official HEAT (#8) vs. Celtics (#2) Eastern Conference Finals Thread

[Rain]

Miami hit 14 threes.

Boston hit 7.

Miami only had 5 turnovers. Boston had 12.

Miami had more assists.

And Boston still won

Breh, Jimmy & Bam combined for an abysmal 9-37. All those other stats are cool, but you're gonna lose 9/10 when you're 2 best players play that terribly.

Bam going for a block and accidentally touching the rim led to Boston getting a 4 point play

Accidentally touched the rim?

He GRABBED that shyt, nicca

That’s goal tending. Check the rule book

Analyzing that last play, Mazzula drew up a masterpiece. But also, it was supported by Miami putting two guys on Tatum, one of those guys being Strus. So nobody was assigned to Derrick White who makes a basket cut baseline after the inbound, forcing Bam to either box out White or stick on Horford for the box out there. Bam chose to stick on Horford which left White open and unguarded to crash the glass. Great play by Mazzula and great read by Derrick White. Can’t even blame Strus cuz he did his job which was ball denial on Tatum.

If you wanna blame anybody it’s Bam for not switching onto White and instructing Strus to get Horford. But on a play of that magnitude it’s hard to blame Bam for not making that read.

Lol @ masterpiece
Yeah he totally meant for Smart to miss a contested 3 and for White to get a tip in with 0.1 seconds left
That ball bounces the other way or a half inch higher and there is no game winner

Game 7 Tatum on the way...

 

[Green Ranger]

Yah another game where the announcers can call out Jimmy & Bam for playing like a bunch of bytches
Another game Jimmy wont shoot jumper even tho there giving him space
Watch our Role players not show up since they empty the tank tonight
More Lowry minutes where he can flop & turn the ball over

Bam back to normal looking like a bytch next to bigger guys & coming up small more pump faking & not putting his head down to attack
I just can't wait for game 7

All time playoff classic

You're NEVER allowed to grab the rim. It doesn't matter how close it is, rim grab is auto goaltend and tech...on offense and defense

Aight I’ll give you that but they called a tech AND regular foul on that play

That extra point on that play gave them the game

And that whole scenario stopped Miami momentum completely

 

[EarlyEarly]

This dude Jimmy double dribbled into 3 FTs. They can hold that shyt.

 

[DJK]

Tatum and Brown wanted no parts in deciding that game.

I don't understand it.
How many times has Smart been the one to take the last shot?
It happened vs Sixers and in last year's playoffs too.
Tatum and Brown are supposed to be all-NBA

 

[GunRanger]

THAT COMMENT FROM STAN
MADE NO SENSE...

WHAT YOU MEAN SPACING?

HEAT WERE ON fukkING DEFENSE
AND PUT IN A NON DEFENSIVE PLAYER



​

Strus didnt defend the inbound. He left to double tatum

 

[Ziggiy]

Jimmy Butler’s theme song tonight

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

All y'all punk ass nxggas in here were dapping @Draje's shyt bumping my posts after the Heat were up 3-0. None of y'all are anywhere to be seen now.

Front-running ass fakkits.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

That was a horrible shot by Smart in that situation although it almost went in. Maybe that was the game plan all along though, to get a shot up early to give yourself a chance on the offensive boards.

That's what Mazzulla just said in the press conference. Someone needs to get a shot off quick and then crash

Go cry somewhere else.
