Series Thread: 1) Miami Heat vs. 2) Boston Celtics

[The Q]

Hello all, new poster here but former poster on realgm and insidehoops. I come in peace, just a tatum and kawhi fan who likes to talk hoops.

Am I the only one who believes Tatum is not getting near the amount of hype\respect that he should be getting? he's having an alltime great playoff run averaging 27\6\6 with elite defense and outplayed\eliminated durant\giannis.

We still got idiots on realgm comparing his peak to Bam hahahahaaha

In the last 15 years, the only playoff run close to what Tatum is on right now was 2019 Kawhi and 2016 Lebron.

He's a 1st team all nba with nobody else on his team selected to all nba.

Tatum hasn’t consistently Brought jt all. I don’t think he’s close to those guys

See what I mean?

Yeah yeah lol...

 

[The Q]

If it’s the Heat and Warriors honestly I would just as soon see it settled with a Tucker and Draymond cage match.

Tucker would eat him alive

 

[Black Adam]

Everyone was previewing a celtics/warriors finals today like the heat just wouldn't show up tonight lol

You weren't sure they'd bounce back like this, man. Don't lie...

 

[bksballer89]

You weren’t overly optimistic were you?

I didnt think the series was over. As Spo said following game 5, the 3s they missed was in their wheelhouse.

Tucker would eat him alive

That’s why I would watch, the cage is to keep Draymond from running away.

Jimmy’s playoff run this year is looking a lot like Kawhi’s run in 2019. This man has been amazing and he’s doing it with a wonky knee.

Boston may have the better team, but we have the best player imo. Game 7 let’s go!

Tatum just has to shoot more then 12 shots (especially when he's hitting all of them)

And brown has to have more then 2 points in 2nd half

But butler just played like the best in the world, credit where credit is due.

This deserves a game 7

I knew they would competed

I know I was. No Herro, guys banged up, on the road, etc

 

[HurricaneDij39]

My ready Keef avi not headed to the recycle bin yet here tonight.

 

[Kawhi_2_Murray]

Smart playing 40 minutes and stinking up the joint. I don't know if he's choking or just hurt. If white started and smart sat out, I feel celtics win

 

[msgkings322]

Not yet. But agreed he's still too inconsistent

 

[bksballer89]

 

[Kawhi_2_Murray]

Tatum hasn’t consistently Brought jt all. I don’t think he’s close to those guys

30/9/4 on 75% FG and 8/8 from the line is still pretty damn great

Not his fault that smart and Horford went 2/15 from three point line

 

[Kawhi_2_Murray]

Reminded me of Tatum's game 6 against bucks.

Should be an amazing game 7.

 

[msgkings322]

It was reminiscent of LeBron in the same place and same situation 10 years ago

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Haha

Jimmy fucking Butler

Legend shit

Yep very very similar. Only difference is heat dominated that one. Bron would have dropped nearly 60 if Boston competed in that one
