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.

He had Tatum run 35 ft away from the hoop at the top of the key when they were only down by 1 with 3 seconds left. Masterpiece :mjlol:

I still dont know what happened, shyt was a blur..

Can someone explain the technical foul 4 point play for me, was that legit? Also was the time change legit?

I never seen soo many stunned fans in my life, I cant remember a moment like that, gonna definietly go down in south florida sports infamy..

Closest I can think of is UM-OSU OT, Miami thinks they won back 2 back National titles, Sean Taylor throws his helmet in air in celebration, then ref throw flag and UM aint been back since.. :francis:
This really had to happen with us!!!!!!

Bringing back Jaylen when he had four fouls with five minutes remaining in the 3rd was a helluva gamble by Mazzulla.

If he picked up another foul during that stretch we probably would've have seen him until late in the 4th. Those six points he had when he checked back in made the world of difference, especially given the fact both teams were struggling to generate offense at the time and Tatum was ice cold.

THAT nikka SCORED
ONE BUCKET IN THE 2ND HALF
AND SHOT 36% FG OVERALL.

HE WOULD BE GETTING
KILLED RIGHT NOW IF
WHITE DIDNT GET THE PUT BACK.
:devil:
:evil:


Lmao. He’s getting doubled as soon as he touches the ball. He Impacted the game in other ways, setting up for his teammates, rebounding and defense. Put Jimmy Butler in a straight Jacket every single time. 3-3. Hate to see the Coli Ringless favorite go out like this.

He put the Cs on his back in the first half. Let’s stop acting like only certain parts of the games that fit your narrative matter.


That doubling Tatum strategy cost Miami the game last night, Strus never recovered.

GMS 1 & 2 WERE PROOF OF THAT.

He can score 10 points in game 7 and if the Celtics win Monday, that Larry Bird ECF MVP Trophy going to St. Louis with him. He been Been the best player in the series.

And he only didn’t score a 4th quarter point in game 3 because he didn’t play.

IF HE STUNK IT UP

WHITE WOULD GET THE MVP.
