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

[trojanfan12]

Did they win the championship last year?

Or did their immaturity show in the Finals against a more experienced group?

I don’t agree with what this guy is saying. Tatum and Brown have plenty of experience to win a title.

But you are the one choosing to interpret everything under the sun as a slight against Miami.

Last year Boston wasn’t good enough to beat Golden State.

I doubt any Warrior fans here would take that as a slight against their team. Because it isn’t.

Yeah, I don't get the complaints.

Miami is making a helluva run, they're doing it in an unprecedented manner (winning 7 games where they won only 1 quarter, having 5 UDFA's play major roles) and the press is reporting it as they should.

Hell, this playoff run is showing everyone once and for all that "Heat culture" is a real thing, while making Wiggy look like a retard for the shit he's said and some Heat fans are choosing to play victim.

One of the oddest things I've seen.

Like I said, 7.4 percent

Yeah extremely rare. The only thing on the Lakers side is Lebron did it twice which is basically what 25% of the time. Still, that’s just one player

 

[Shanemansj13]

i don't think so. Jimmy doesn't go out of his way to get Grant who is a solid defender on him. He is the last person to do that to

Once saw Jimmy get that and 1 on Grant after Grant decided to run his mouth, I knew the game was over. He had the same look in his eyes that he had game 5 in Milwaukee when him and Jrue was going at it

No doubt Williams should just play. If we are talking about Boston’s superstar talking-go for it-still not smart but the C’s offense went into a spiral. They need to be better in late games, that’s two in a row. The Grant-Butler thing just adds to it. If Boston wins, none of this is matters but Grant still knows to keep his mouth shut. Now he just looks like the big loser.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Brown had no business making all nba, and it makes this miss and now summer so much more crucial

I’ll take him. Put together a package Koby-Ainge-style.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Respect to Grant Williams.

That is how you respond to talking shit and getting your ass kicked.

Dillon Brooks should pay attention.

Hard for a competitive player to not get caught up in the moment, still a young player-sometimes emotions just take over. He just picked the wrong dude and it backfired

And he owned it.

 

[Shanemansj13]

And he owned it.

Sign of maturity from a young player. That’s tough to do. I mean Klay is a veteran and he wouldn’t own that shit

 

[trojanfan12]

Yeah, but it's one player with huge influence over the team. Cowherd was talking about that even before game 2. He was saying that even though the Lakers have a bunch of guys who don't have much playoff experience...they would be unlikely to panic because they will be looking at Lebron and he won't panic.

Obviously #1 for me it's Lebron getting #5 because that means the Lakers get #18.

But after that...it's easily Jimmy getting #1.

You don't want Lebron to get #5 because of my +4750 bet I made on them a couple months ago?

 

[bksballer89]

Playing a ridiculous amount of clutch games in the regular season is paying off

I bet the odds drop to 100% for the Celtics if Miami wins game 3.

Your anti-Heat bias is clear as day * mud * for anyone with a working brain, or at least 1 good eye, to see.

….and that’s me saying this with absolutely no dog in this race.

Not that @bksballer89 said you were…

But, it’s possible to have a differing opinion without being a troll or a hater.

Nah 45% probably if Miami win game 3

BOOM.

 

[Hambombs]

What a run by miami

 

[Hambombs]

Heat are -175 and Celtics +145 by the books, heat are 63% chance of winning now lol that’s a low line for them, after winning 2 on the road

Did you bet real money?
