Good thing end of b2b is vs this gleague team. Heat can rest vs real competition next. Oh and thank you Cronin for refusing our boys. Enjoy ur five years of more losing. That’s just so sad for the blazers fans.
Wasn’t a 20 plus point beatdown but I’ll take it
5th seed baby
W! 5 straight! Heat just gave blazers fans the first half to rejoice
Hahahaha! Funny how we don’t see those trash talking trolls here these days
They’re already thinking of that in the first half when they were leading believing they’ll win this
Yup, they would’ve shown their faces here if they had won
dirty play 20 seconds left ahole
Raining down heat chants screw you blazers and cronin.
5th place!!!!!!
Heat fans… We don’t die, we multiply!
Heat fans getting loud in the Moda
Spo family and friends lol
chauncey why did u take this job be an assistant with a good team than get a good job when one becomes avail
Let’s go Heat
Let’s go Heat
Got that crowd all riled up in the first quarter, lol!
ty eric your the best
Cronin, you’re a dipshit.
Haha
Cal3b dagger
Cal3b dagger
Lol…refreshed the site this came out! Lol
My man! lol
Terry’s statement game. “I’m back, bitches!”
Scary Terry in effect
Took some pressure off Bam and Jimmy, which is nice with Herro out and needing some offense.
Rozier in his bag
I can’t believe I’m up this late… It’s time to wrap this up, Heat.
eric reid says thank u
That’s ok Dunc…now no more tos and end this game well
games over bring on fat boy
dunc to at least he didnt foul simons
Bring Jimmy back in to keep that edge
orlando keeps winning there pretty good
Luckily Heat own the tie breaker over them
lowry in phily terry in mia lifes good
Lowry had 3 points tonight. He did have 4 assists, but his contributions are so small now at this stage of his career. Terry is just starting to warm up for us. Love that trade
Glad we made that trade, Lowry ain’t worth that contract, now he Philly problem.
Terry looking scary
i wouldnt want to mess with him
Terry Rozier!
Are we there yet?
I like the vibe. I would look for contact with them in the bonus, which is what I was expecting Jimmy to do, but went to the bench
rozier shot looks good
Scary Terry shot
Jimmy is going to take like 10 free throw attempts in the next 5 minutes lol
no flagrant hit to head?
lets pause for a quick message from dunkin im waiting for duncan to appear
did jimmy play whole 3rd qtr and now in the 4th
No
simons has cooled off grant to jimmys balling
Jimmy you got to reach 30+ to make up for that suspension lol
I would be happy with 28 lol
Won the 3rd! Finish up good this last q. Go Blaze….oops I mean Go Heat!! 😆😂
Butler baby !
Delon was great on that defensive possession
great defender period
Delon and Rozier for Lowry and a pick. Nice.
I hope they find a way to keep him.
Won’t take much to keep him, especially since he can play for a winner .
Woke up in third finish this good and run em out in the 4th
billups great player unfort first coaching gig with a sht team
Might be his last too.
his winning % will be to low prob to get another gig
Finish the quarter strong
10 point blow out would be satisfying enough to me I guess 🤷
I guess Jovic’ game just might work in the USA
hes good on the break
Hit 2 3 pointers also, not on the break
he was wide open most nba players gonna bury those
Once again, not true. Otherwise they wouldn’t be in such demand.
Yes definitely, I think he just needs pt to workout the kinks in his game.
The lead!
Jovic balling in the 3rd quarter
You were right earlier. He can develop into playing either pf or sf.
Jovic!
Bad pass bam
Niko starting to cook from 3
keegan better than his brother
