This is why insignificant role players should not be chirping at players who can take over a game. I don't know how Grant Williams can look in the mirror tonight and not say "WTF did I do?"

Coach Spo needs some credit.
It's Jimmy B and Spo in those last 5-6 minutes, yeah they wanted to kill each other once but they know how to max the other
Butler is one of the very best to ever put on a Heat Jersey

Bam almost a triple-double cannot be overlooked
 
I didn’t think Jimmy and his scrubs would be entertaining but they’re fun to watch and easy to root for. Everyone doing their part and not scared of the spotlight.

Deandre Hunter? Gtfo

We disagreed on one out of the East. Hunter is probably going to be the same or get better. Harden is going to get worse. Gtfo.

He just led the league in assists and dropped 40 in the playoffs. He isn’t an mvp candidate but he is a top 30 player.

He has to have the ball in his hands at all times, he isn't efficient anymore, plays zero defense and shrinks in the clutch. He isn't top 30 anymore.

As much as I love Al Horford and how hard he fights on D, at 36 the age is showing. You put Bam on the Celts playing Horfords position and they win this game.

Also ... Gabe Vincent, Duncan Robinson, Max Strus, Caleb Martin = 60 points from undrafted players. Seems to me NBA execs need to look into why they f up so much

I was thinking today I wish I appreciated him more when he was younger. He is so complete and such a competitor.

His team on paper is so much worse than this Celtics team (especially with out Herro) and yet he is willing the team through the playoffs.

Chip on his shoulder. His defense was always good, but his offense efficiency continues to improve at age 33. Did you also see Wade live at Marquette?

sure did and it was obvious he was going to be one of the best ever take that to the bank brohan

It is a mistake to put this entirely on the coach. Time and again the players have not performed up to their abilities. The coach dererves some of the blame pie but not as much as you are suggesting IMO.

heat fan and love jimmy. some players get “respect” from the hate they endured. Brady, magic/bird for the east coast west coast rivalry, Garnett. The list goes on and on. Guys who ”transcend “ the knife they put in your heart (I feel that way about Jason Tatum)

Their coach is garbage and its not like theyre getting blown out.

I agree he is in way over his head and will almost certainly be replaced if they fail to get to the finals. But I was just saying we should not ignore the play of the players who definitely shoulder some of the blame for me.

That's a great way to put it. Jimmy stabbed me in the heart, but I've forgiven him and now I'll help him stab Grant Williams.
 
Have no idea if this is accurate, but I saw a graphic on ESPN right before the conference finals they had Miami at +1500 and I thought to myself that no way should they be that underrated.
