Kinda saw this coming, right?

Any predictions for tonights game? I predict it will be quite boring in comparison to previous matchups against Boston, but one that will still go Miami’s way. I will be able to enjoy college footballl as well while the Heat take care of Boston tonight

Miami fans will be wishing Olynyk, Faverani or both were wearing Heat uniforms rather than Celtic ones after tonight.
They're looking like ROY candidates to this admittedly biased observer.

Devastating news, that could have been worse had we not been playing the Celtics - Udonis Haslem inactive with Back Spasms … The coaching-staff favorite, Shane Battier, of course to start - because he is so special… Not. Couldve even used Beasley in this situation.

UD and Oden inactive tonight

Jeff Green with a facial on Shane and foul - Heat looking lazy so far the first few minutes

 

[Paolo305613]

Early sighting for Beasley - Everyone can relax now

 

[Paolo305613]

Good matchup for Beasley vs Olynk - Should take him to the basket every single time

 

[Paolo305613]

Suddenly Beas plays D?

 

[bksballer89]

Beasley looked great in his 2 games

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade getting it going again - Need that with LBJ playing lazy again

Sloppyy performance tonight

 

[bksballer89]

2 big shots from Lebron

 

[Paolo305613]

I know most will say a win is a win… And that is true… But this will probably be one of those we can write down as a bad win for the Heat - Shouldve been a much easier outcome

 

[Paolo305613]

Dumb timeout there, we have the ball and the lead - the pressure is on Boston to tie it or win it…Keep going and run a play

 

[Paolo305613]

Of course leave the door open by settling for a jumper
