The odds are decent with kawhi out
Will write my eulogy in game recap hehe
basketball season for the heat is done , the year of the injuries.dont know what to do with jim.hes still our best player so id like to see pat just add to current roster.minus ty dunc caleb hh love bryant.not really far away from being champ contender
Meanwhile the biggest thing that happened today is no more Bally’s. That is so sad for me. I will miss their coverage.
go get att
theyll work something out 30 shortly
Congrats Celts. You did ur job and did it excellently. Humbling experience for Heat fans sad we couldn’t give you a more competitive series. Its finals, even rings, or bust for ur team. Hats off to Boston. We’ll come back next season better. Go Heat!!
Welp… injuries killed our whole season, but I won’t let it get to me. I’m gonna roll up a fat blunt, and workout at the gym to numb the pain.
have good workout and a good high enjoyed talking with u on hhh
Thanks bro and trust you haven’t seen the last of me, I’ll still be on here from time to time, and I’ll be back on phinsider soon.
i know big i see u on there to.
My wife would approve of your rsponse.
Lol you have an awesome wife !
Thanks. Yes, she’s cool.
its weird seeing cs w/o marcus smart
jason jackson getting some tnt love hes the best him and eric are heat lifers
Congrats to Boston. May you go far.
Expect Celtics trolls here in 5, 4, 3…
Seems it’s already begun
jimmy jaime hotels ,com commercial lol
hausers sweeet stroke good nba body
well..at least we didnt get swept lol
Exactly 💯 lol
think lakers beat boston
Lakers lol u drunk mad bro ??
no they were up every game vs denver mr celtic man
That very satisfying game 2 win is quickly forgotten with these blowout losses. Sad. Gotta accept defeat now I guess. Good ride this season. Not great but good ride for me. Sucks injuries sank this team in playoffs.
injuries got us 4 sure,bost very beatable denv minn no way
FOH with that garbage you win one game when Celts didn’t bother to play a lick of Defense
There’s one…anymore?
May the injury Gods bless your team as it has ours.
Appreciated your good attitude at keeping hope alive. Who would have thought we would lose Jimmy and Terry when we did. It always seems like injuries hurt the team that can afford them the least.
The only silver lining for this game is bam.
hes been good not great
10 for 24
At least he’s being aggressive. 24 shot attempts from bam is a rare sight.
yes who else out there mentality
At least we have Bam. And Rozier. And hopefully two nice draft picks and a low level starter for Jimmy. Ty will bring us maybe two seconds. The rest won’t bring much, so we keep Dunc and Nico, JRich, JJJ, HHH, and we build from there. Maybe ORob or Cain or a G Leaguer can make the team too. So that’s nine spots. Maybe we pick up another player offseason. And maybe we will be able to start our rookies and try to build from there. Just got to hit on those draft picks, have to make both count, and one has to be good enough to start. And, two way players only please.
starters will come from trades or fa not draft
that 9 spots you mentioned is mediocre, to be honest. thats a 7 or 8 seed team at best. this is a star-driven league. and outside of bam, we dont have any star
This free agency class coming is the best in years, so maybe we can get a Murray or Mitchell.
Butler, Herro, Duncan, Bryant (and Martin in a sign & trade), 15th and 43rd picks are Miami’s rebuilding chips.
I think Tyler can get us a first round pick, like if we trade him to a team that needs 3 point shooting like the magic, nets, pistons, jazz. One of them would most definitely give us a first round pick. Also I would like to trade dunc too, if possible, and keep everyone else like you said. Also I’m on the same train as you with 2 way only players.
Fair enough
Maybe Utah would give us Collins, Sexton and a second for Herro and Duncan.
id take hauser over niko
Nope wrong
disagree
niko these brothers play at a diff level than serbians
niko do u want to be a great player in europe or a scrub here
bams # 3 option next year
Just let bam or herro take all the shots.
Maybe next year we can meet on Biscayne Boulevard.
wheres the panthers parade ill meet u there 30
Las Olas?
las olas no parking there
caleb the ball has to have an arc son
Meanwhile back in Miami…
browns elbows hitting our chins .what he did to 55 few years ago ,somebody needs to ud his ass
30…looks like they’re giving up.
I miss 90’s basketball. These guys getting dominated and no one has any heart. No one is getting physical.
tys getting physical.ive never seen him act so tough.
no niko?
Second half, might be our last this season, Go Heat!!
heat needs a 10 0 start here
Just want to say I enjoyed reading all of everyone’s perspectives and the HHH site. Thanks everyone and hope to hear from everyone even occasionally during the offseason and the year to come.
30 has his panthers gl
Yes, the second round will be intense. All four second round series will be evenly matched as there is no true favorite.
bruins or leafs who do u prefer we play
I’m still hoping for one more game thread after this. Game is an eyesore for us Heat fans but got to suck it up
What dummy would give you a minus for that comment? I’ll make it go away.
Lol that’s ok. Thanks!
Likewise. We see certain things the same, and when we disagree, it’s cordial.
lac mavs who u guys like
Just down 22. Make a run in 3rd tie it by 4th and win in overtime. Great story eh? Haha…Go Heat!!
Maybe if I cheer for Boston they’ll be jinxed? Lets Go Celtics! lol
Spo will probably be our next gm.
and our next coach who would u like
Maybe Quinn, or caron
executive of the year not pat why not nba
can we get cornette they dont need him
bam sees ciornette big dude doesnt like size bamala
bams playing great minus 21 thats why that stat is flawed
ny phily unreal series
i dont watch any team but the heat during reg season.the playoffs watch everygame amazing.best playoffs for me nba
Herro starting to come alive a lil, now need some ecf Martin.
yes needed him from tipoff might be a 10pt deficit only
That’s all we need to hang around until the 4th .
where the f is bryant or orlando spobot
flagrant
Pat: Tyler sorry but that game 2 looks like a fluke so I’ll be listening to the folks at HHH and make that trade
So maybe that’s the reason Herro not playing well
I hope and pray his crybaby soft entitled ass is not here next year. Where did he get that he’s better than he actually is from?
ty can score.but hes not a team player cant defend.shoot first player
Either way he will be traded, he’s a number 4 option at best .
he cant play his d to weak.maybe 10 mins a game as a boost
Nah he’s either a starting sg or a 6th man, so he will get at least 20 minutes a game.
have u watched ty for 4 years.no d up and down have some good games and lots 3 15 games
a ty dunc lineup never works may this be the last game i see this tennis god
take bam out before he hurts himself for next year
bams a minus 27 and hes played great
a player cannot play worse than tyler herro on offense or defense impossible
