Coby White was having a great game and then got pulled out SMH
I smell fear from Zach Lavine
Strus was on Demon time
This was the best game I've seen in a long time…and there's more to come because it's Playoff time!
What a gamee
DAMN!!! what a great game!!! I wish I could have watched it live but… had to work!!😖
Miami at home, sells more for the league. 32 foul shots to 15 for Miami. Did I mention at home and generating more MONEY for the NBA?
when you have to rely on Caruso and White, you lost the game, lol…. Vucevic did absolutely nothing in the 1st quarter 😂 one shot attempt when dude is the biggest, tallest guy on the floor
I gotta say. Strus was on fire with those 3-points off the perimeter.
But Why did they change the jimmy Butler thumbnail tho
I don't get it doe if the heat lose against the hawks how they still make the playoffs
That was a heated game, wish it was a playoff game I want to see game two😅 Great win Miami 🤩
My weird team just got the last ticket 😅, I don't know what they are up to, but I'm not surprised. 👍💪
This one was the wildest game for this play-in. Whole team got that cleaner mindset last minute. Amazing!
Demar so clutch
its fun to watch em in the playoffs
maybe next year huh
It's almost like bulls fans should've held off calling lavine baby Jordan because of the last game. I know I shouldn't talk at all but you guys built that team to win a championship and it's been a disaster. Lonzo being hurt didn't help at all. And I honestly thought Drummonds bum ass would show some kinda fight dude is still only 27 or 28 man he just fell off so fast. If you guys don't unload everyone and start over I will be completely shocked
I see butler took out them extensions 😂😂😂
Jimmy fucking buckets in the clutch 🫡
Sweet Bulls get sent home now Derozan can go teach his daughter some manners
For us South Floridians! Let us take time to acknowledge that the Heat & the Panthers finished 1st last year, & 8th this year. Wtf 🤦🏻♂️ lol
Derozan and Lavine balled out in scoring🏀🏀but Jimmy buckets scored and played amazing clutch defense with steals🏀⭐🔥🔥! Max and Tyler went crazy too 🔥🔥!! Good win HEATS
The heat are not suppose to be in the playoffs they suck. This is gunna be the easiest 🧹 for the bucks 😂
drummond is way more useful than vuc
I knew it was going to be fun to watch these two teams
Amazing game!
Surprised to see the seats empty
These play-in's are lame!
Its crazy how fast this dude colby white hair grows
My type of basketball!!! Slow paced grind em out game, the refs let a lot go, and one of the greatest closers in the nba (jimmy) brought it home for miami. Really good game!!
Miami as fans will always be undeserving of their team's success, I mean look at all those empty seats at the beginning! what a shame….such casual fans
Its gone take everything we got to beat the bucks like seriously
Playoff jimmy is the best😮
Chicago was missing their 6th best player…Demar’s Daughter..
Watched this game live even I missed some parts (due internet problems). But in that 4th Quarter Drummond was being an interior threat on the defensive end and he was giving Bam some problems but then when Coach Bill benched this guy and let his trust go to Vucevic now Bulls got a problem with that part. Bam still had a bad shooting but he was grabbing a lot of rebounds than Vooch (being a bit soft when his shooting bricks this game, his relying too much on his outside shooting that he got a weakness), that went to an advantage for the Heat. Wish Bulls could've put White when they need his offense in the clutch but I understand that they needed to put Caruso/Pat for defensive purposes but benching Drummond in the 4th when it made a difference on the defensive end was not acceptable.
Shoutout out to Max Strus who literally went Ray Allen mode with those Cold Blooded 3s 🔥😤. Great that Jimmy Bounce back (especially in the 2nd half) but Bam still struggling on his offense. Goodluck for the 1st Round matchup against the Bucks, they are not going to be easy with the depth and experience they have. Better luck next season Bulls, they need to get some bigs at least.
Bulls need Lonzo bad
They made threats to demar daughter they would of won this was on goggle
