Hes an iron man, for sure.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

This Cavs 5 is horrendous on D
Keep attacking.
No need for 3's.

Heat are just outworking the Cavs

Heat are just outworking the Cavs

Pretty much what they've been doing during this stretch of success they've had. Might not always have the best player or most talent, but hard work and effort goes a long way.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I hope hes ok ( after tonight).
I hate seeing players injured.

Yep but just waiting for Cleveland to wake up. I know it's going to happen. Just proud of my boys especially without the Johnson brothers.

Just got to avoid a scoring drought.

Same. Left Leg injury won't return tonight. Hopefully it's nothing serious

I expected the same when the Kings kept it close in Cleveland a while back, that the Cavs would go on a 15-0 or 20-3 type of run and blow them out but it never happened. I still think Cleveland wins today, but at least Miami isn't just giving up.

I'm telling you every time I've seen the Heat play, I've been really impressed by their heart and hustle. They don't have quit in them. They would have beaten the Warriors easily if there had not been such a huge talent disparity. If anyone ever questioned Spo before, you'd have to admit he's the real deal now.

These last 5 minutes will be crucial. Miami currently up with 11 4:45 left.

Let's see what the score is at halftime.

 

[bksballer89]

Cavs getting frustrated. Lot of looking at the refs after missed shots.

 

[Heatles84]

Starter is no longer part of the rotation. Didn't you know that?

Apparently not. Strange times.

 

[bksballer89]

This Cavs defense is horrendous

Up 9 with under 2 in the half. Would be nice to enter the half with at least a 7 point lead.

I have a backlog of crow plates that I'm still catching up regarding Spo. He's been on a whole another level this year. I used to consider him average prior to this year. Key term being "used to".

 

[Heatles84]

I fully expect Cleveland to win this game as well. At least it won't be a blow out....so far.
