Series Thread: ECF: 2) Boston Celtics vs 8) Miami Heat

[DJ]

It's always interesting to see what BKS is going to be crying about when we post in here.....

And his team is up, 2-0.....LOL.

God is good

Note: Jimmy Butler and the Bulls were also up 2-0 in Boston in 2017. Not over yet. That said...

Miami is undefeated at home this postseason as are the Nuggets and Lakers. My Nuggets need to use tonight as motivation, that if the Heat take care of business at home, we too got to end our series ASAP.

Good luck winning game 3 in Los Angeles.

Environment will be lit, Lakers are much better at home, and the Nuggets are not the same team (as they are at home) on the road.

Working to extend the series.....LOL.

I will always love the Bam/Dunc 2 man game. They play well off each other

See @tlance this is the shit im talking about. The media absolutely hates Miami and will go above and beyond to make excuses for their opponents rather than give credit.

All of sudden Boston starts are too young but last year at 23 & 25 they wasnt? Lol

This post has nothing to do with Miami though.

It doesn’t matter what anyone says, if it isn’t about how great the Heat are, you take it personal.

Why can’t the media be critical of the Celtics? They are giving away a golden opportunity.

Nobody, including you thought Miami had a chance to go this far once Herro went down.

Enjoy the run man! These moments are too rare to waste them getting mad about perceived slights from random Twitter personalities.

Was boston not old enough last year when they beat Miami in the conference finals? It is a simple yes or no question

This is an NBA talking head. Not a random twitter person

Let’s slow the roll here on Dipo. Truth be told, most Heat fans criticized him all season and wanted him out of the rotation. This has been a magical ride. Does Caleb Martin get the minutes he’s getting if Dipo doesn’t go down? Do they rustle Duncan Robinson from the bench? Herro is a big loss for sure because they had to replace his 17-20 a game. The Dipo loss became a blessing in disguise because it forced Spo to tap the shoulders of guys who got lost in the shuffle and those guys have risen to the occasion.

You’re right about Duncan not getting minutes with Dipo playing. But Dipo to me is like P.J. Tucker for y’all. I don’t expect much from him offensively, but defensively he’s a dawg! He was a nightmare for Tatum and Brown in the ECF last year.

Difference is one knows his role on offense and the other doesn't

True that. He still thinks he’s in his Orlando/Indiana days lol

Lakers Nuggets perhaps.

You cannot win a series down by two after losing two at home. Celtics would need to win some close ones and they don’t know how

Yeah that is pretty impossible, the team is good enough to do it but the 4Q woes say otherwise

Exactly.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Not both, no. One WILL be traded

Agree with this. Brown would be the guy to go and it makes sense he is up for an extension. If they get swept then I believe it’s a foregone conclusion. I didn’t think this after the Philly series but idk now

I would watch Bron vs Jimmy 2.0

That would be epic.

Espn got the heat at 35% to win the series.

Was 3% entering the series
17% after game 1

Shaq pretty much nails it here:

Look: Shaquille O’Neal Had A Clear Message For Grant Williams Following Jimmy Butler Incident

Environment will be lit, (1)Lakers are much better at home, (2)and the Nuggets are not the same team (as they are at home) on the road.

1. For some reason I thought the Lakers struggled on the road and were great at home this season. Nope. Only 3 game difference. Home: 23-18 / road: 20-21

2. Nuggets are much more beatable on the road, 19-22 (34-7 @ home)

And aren't your Lakers undefeated at home in the playoffs? I'm expecting a Lakers win tonight.

 

[Wamu]

Well dammit. That was a disappointing end to the game last night.

The Lakers are 6-0 at home this postseason.
