    Well Jimmy snubbed Harden when Morey was trying to get him here.

    Up until the conference finals, there seemed to be a lot more parity this year between the playoff teams, compared to previous seasons. Personally, I've enjoyed it.

    Smart would be my favourite player in the league outside of Houston if he didn't flop the way he does.

    I laughed at some of the posts about him last series. They're probably the same people who commented about PJ Tucker being washed up and not needed.

    Some people just don't understand basketball besides having a high PPG = good.

    Jimmy Butler ain’t beating this team alone. Not KD, not Giannis, not Jimmy.

    Bam “MIA” Adebayo
    Where’s the 6th man? They need those 20-30 point performances you gave in the regular season
    I don’t think Lowry is coming back (probably ineffective if he did)
    Duncan Robinson went full Ryno…never go full Ryno
    Who is the Heat’s 2nd best player right now? Max Strus? Gabe Vincent? Caleb Martin? Victor Oladipo? :confused:

    Tyler has to come out and earn that snarl again

    Game 2 also showed why Spo kept him as a 6th man. Coach knew best.

    +/- not a perfect stat but damn... Herro was -33 in game 2. Worst of any player on both teams. Payton Pritchard of all people was hunting Herro on D. Celtics was committing some serious beige on beige violence.

    He cannot be a defensive liability . .. AND Duncan being one
    Their offense is needed but not if it is balanced out on the other end

    Of Course. Defense, Coaching and the Tatum, Brown, & Smart Law Firm gives them a chance.

    10-0 Celtics run cut the lead to 15.

    Maybe the Celtics can copy what the Warriors did last night. Warriors cut their deficit to 14 at the half.
