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

No, I agee.

He carried them.

He's the best player.

It was his decision.

I just wish he would have made a different choice because they were my pick.

Mine too.

 

[bksballer89]

Not upset by this season at all. Exceeded my expectations across the board. Use that first round pick wisely, trade dunc, and make whatever minor free agent signings you can make and get back at it next season

 

[fightinfunbags]

Im just happy bam showed up big time. People love to criticize him but he showed up in the biggest game of his basketball career

Yeah he played his ass off. Strus Vincent Dipo for me tonight. Just need one more guy to get 15. 8-26 from those three guys

 

[The Q]

The Warriors defense isnt terrible but it’s not Heat level. We should see Tatum have a better series.

He should eat Wiggins’s lunch

No reason to be upset. Good chance fully healthy you all advance.

Definitely admirable that the Heat didn't tank after the end of the end of LeBron/Wade/Bosh.

 

[PPhan]

Definitely take it to the hole. One on one, I like Jimmy to finish against Horford or draw the foul.

Exactly. It’s only a 2 point game, but that’s his strength right there and I believe he would have tied it. My best explanation is he was probably a little too tired so he opted for the 3 instead to go for the kill.

 

[trojanfan12]

Not if he retires now

But he's on pace for it yes

lol

If it was called The Hall of Good...You would be right.

But it's not.

 

[Manster7588]

C's will have to play their asses off to best GS

Exactly what it was

I dont know. It gave them time to get the rebound and another shot. Or to play the foul game. I prefer taking the last shot, but I understand the reasoning behind an earlier shot.

Either way, Im good with my best player taking a wide open shot.

Did the Heat have any timeouts left?

If they did and didnt use it, that would be the mistake, imo.

Yeah, he earned the right to have it end at his hand, one way or the other.

One thing is for certain, nobody can say that Jimmy isn't a #1 any more.

Don't care how much of a asshole he is.

He's a fucking killer.

Clear top 15 player in the league and borderline superstar. Turned this franchise back around

I expect that the Warriors are going to send just about everyone at him at different times.

Not saying he’s Timmy, but he kinda reminds me of how Duncan used to paced himself in the regular season and was a killer in the playoffs. Timmy did not have the best of stats in the regular season either.

No player gave Boston as much trouble this postseason as much as he did.

Yeah Jimmy doesn't care about the regular season. He plays within the game. Playoffs come and becomes aggressive and turns into the superstar that he can be

Played all 48 minutes, so we can't be harsh.

 

[Gman]

Miami got such will... damn tough team.

I had a lot of respect for Jimmy Butler and Eric Spoelstra before this series... but it's 10 out of 10 respect now.

I never felt comfortable that the Celtics were gonna win until the buzzer sounded.

 

[thunderc]

The Celtics won’t win many with Smart taking their last 5 shots
