Well I thought Caleb was done for followed by Jaquez and Novic making every 3. It was a hurricane of 3s out there. That is one way to respond. Game 3 will probably be both teams bricking or will it be both teams shooting 60% + from the 3 and it goes into some record shootout?
Another quote from the guru:
“is anybody looking forward to this playoff game,its here ill watch and post but after seeing other teams play we are the worse team left orlando might be second worse.suks to say that but if anybody doesnt think that is the case pls raise your hand”
Can imagine being so miserable that you think you know more than Spo? Hahaha!
i have a great life douchebag.so fk u
didnt see this coming .dont think to many did.happy they won/need 3 more we shall see
It’s a major upset for sure. I’m happy we are not getting swept and we beat them on their hallowed ground. I’m okay with whatever happens from here.
I am with you. I had no idea. It’s a moment where it seems like you and I and Las Vegas and all the prognosticators know nothing about basketball. Everyone likes to act so smart and take all this credit but everyone, including you and I, are full of garbage. But that’s what’s great about sports blogs, opinions, like assholes, everyone’s got one.
Whoever that is I’m glad…we’re all glad he was wrong 😂
porzingis wearing out dude so big those long limbs gotta be tired.ready to crack
How does Dallas feel about this game?
barkley complimenting heat i must be dreaming #1 heat hater
He eats his crow well. 😀
Shaq hilarious 😂
Shaq called it before the game. Heat by 10 lol
It’s nice having forever fan Shaq in our corner.
He had the script all along lol
Really?! Lol
Simply spectacular!!
Herro instantly increased his trade value with this game.
I’m sure Portland is happy with what’s his name lol
Lmao I don’t even remember dawg name .
Heat in 7
Did this really happen? 🙂
Confirming it. Yes. 😁
So let me get This straight, we beat the best team in the NBA, at there house, without jimmy,terry,and jrich. Then beat them with there own game, and killed them with a franchise playoff record 23 3s lmaooo
Twenty-three?! The Heat is on!!!
It’s getting hot in here manila 🔥
Its happy again here at HHH 😁
Minus 1
Brown you gonna cry? lol
Remarkable. Simply remarkable win.
Absolute miracle!!!!!
Boogieman Jimmy is out…so boogiemen Heat showed up 1-1! Go Heat!!!!
This is definitely the best or maybe 2nd best playoff game of herro’s career.
his two best games are against Boston. hahahaha
How many people said we were better without Herro last playoffs?
he was fantastic rc,lets see game 3 4 5 hope for the best but u know ty is always up and down
He is. But he’s capable of giving you a game like this. He’s far from perfect, but he has value. And I don’t believe that the team is better without him.
He came back big tonight. I admit I wanted to trade him. But to think we couldn’t have used him last year in the playoffs is a little crazy.
I’m still not against trading him if we get a young player that improves the team. But my position all along is that he’s a good player with a good skill set.
herros best ft shooter in nba was last year
Game of the year for miami.
100%
anybody see knicks game other day gotta be careful with ball
TNT is 20-30 seconds behind. Weird.
Probably editing out the Boston fans leaving
