Boston is well oiled machine playing without the pressure.
Heat just fell behind too much too early.
We need to stay close from the beginning.

Well, we crashed with a thud. What did anyone expect? Maybe we could have a less long injury report, is that too much to ask?

Counting on getting a buttload of players/assets for Jimmy, Herro and Duncan plus sign & trade for Martin.

NO WAY. DUMB STRATEGY. SUCK FOR 2 MORE YEARS WITH A PLAYER ON THE DOWNSIDE MAKING $50 MILLION A YEAR AND THEN LEAVES US WHEN HIS CONTRACT EXPIRES AND WE GET ….NOTHING. BRILLIANT,

I must be watching a different game than y’all.
We missed a lot of shots in the first quarter, and had a lot of turnovers in the second quarter at inflection points.

We forced Boston to play the type of offense we went them to play more often than we didn’t. If we weren’t missing shots, I don’t think Boston is making those one on one pull ups.

In other words, the formula if we execute works. Boston is not 2023 Denver in the finals. Keep chipping away Heat.

Commentator said every Celtic is a two-way player. Hint to Riley. I wonder what Miami can get on the open market for Butler, Herro, Duncan and a sign & trade for Martin? I think there are plenty of trades/free agents available out there.

The good thing is it only counts as 1 game. Hopefully, Wright and Rozier are back next game. (Wishful thinking)

GO HEAT!!!

They weren’t much better than .500 with him. 33-27 (55%) They were 13-9 (59.1%) without him.

Might as well talk to a wall. Doesn’t get it. It’s not at all a knock on Butler. Just time to get younger, taller, stronger, more capable.

You can definitely get value for him. Jae Crowder garnered five second round picks! If they keep Butler and they have another season like this, you will be the first person in line complaining all of the time!
