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

i dont wanna see Spo lose like this

he doesn't deserve this on his resume

I was rooting for Spo & Jimmy but after droppin' the ball like this, and regressing back to the mean so hard....I don't think I wanna see this Heat team vs Joker & Murray. I want the team with the highest ceiling (C's) to make it somewhat interesting outside of the times they completely check out. Maybe they've figured something out and will be more consistent.

I think NBA fans are probably the worst when it comes to discussing their sport, but it would be a real low point if they view THIS as a black mark to Spoelstra's run. Thoroughly beat the hell out of the best team in the NBA and the higher seeded Knicks, and fukked on the Celtics for 3 games with an average version of Jimmy. It's one of the best coaching runs any of us have seen

It is, but unfortunately it still doesn't change the fact that he's going to be on the wrong side of history if he losses tomorrow.

150 other teams had their own story and were able to get it done while being up 3-0 and you don't want to be the first and only one to not do it. It can and should be a part of his legacy just as the case with any other coach.

WHEN HAVE YOU EVER
SEEN THEM GIVE A GUY
AND GOALTEND PLUS A TECH
FOR GRABBING THE RIM
ON THE SAME PLAY?

WHEN HAVE YOU EVER SEEN
THEM REVERSE A FOUL CALL
BUT ALSO SAY THE OFFENSIVE FOUL
WAS MARGINAL CONTACT AND STILL
COUNT THE BUCKET?

THEY WERE JUST MAKING shyt
UP ON THE FLY.

Touching the rim in any capacity on a shot is an auto-goaltend. Grabbing the rim is a tech. They're saying he used the rim to pull himself up...auto tech. He did grab the rim. There's nothing to discuss about that, other than was it inadvertently, but you still can never grab the rim.

Players get techs for grabbing the rim or hanging on it after a dunk. It's always been the case. Touching the rim is a goaltend. It just so happens this was the same play, but one doesn't negate the other. Blame Bam for that play

Keep that same energy

Watch me - can’t wait for Al to hit the timeout on a knee again when ya’ll go to empty the bench on Monday

i forgot about all that. Man, that plus the technical foul killed them.

Al Horford pushed Bam Adebayo hairline to the back of his head. Old man doing Bam worse than he did Joel Embiid.

@iamduval been quiet.



Don’t lose on Monday. Papi getting his lock back at some point.

Been downhill since this happened.

I ain’t gone lie. Jimmy and the Heat were doing a lot of front running and antics the first 3 games. They been mild as fukk the last 3.

But no team has ever come back from 3-1 in Finals. Cavs doing that didn't tarnish Kerr's legacy.

 

[steph_harden]

Jimmy guaranteed they was gonna win this game and he was shyt for most of the game.

Jimmy been making guarantees since game 5. He just needs to stfu and show up for game 7..

Ehhh there's a difference with that statement as 13 teams have done that previously before in history, so Cleveland doing it wasn't that special even with it being in the finals. It should also be noted that GS team and Steve Kerr did that exact same thing the series before in the WCF against OKC.

In the case of being down 3-0, no NBA team has ever done it and it's the only North American sport where it has yet to happen, so it definitely will hold more significance and memory if it's done.
