First comment lol LETS GOOO HEATTTTTš„š„š„
Maybe they should play hurt every playoff time like Chris Paul.
expecting a Miami Heat squad to get outworked and outhustled certainly is a take
Nice conversation as always!
Harden should go to the Bucks.
HARDEN – JRUE – MIDDLETON – GIANNIS – BROOK
This starting 5 would be dangerous.
Harden's offensive IQ would be an asset there too.
Even if he doesn't score, the Bucks have enough to supplement it.
The Bucks have elite defense, so Harden's ole defense would not be a big problem.
Even if Harden disappears in the playoffs, the Buck would still have enough to win games.
This would be a win/win for Harden and the Bucks.
Letās go heat š«”š„š„š„
Not only is Embiid the only MVP to never make a conference final, he has the largest PPG dropoff from regular season to postseason for any MVP. Tough š¬
The Boston dick eating is crazy. Especially Giving the history between these teams Miami always give Boston fits but itās all good. Weāll see yāall in the Finals.
2020 rematch – LeBron vs Spoelstra
Are these guys Boston fans?
How can you expect objective analysis?
Maybe guys forgot Literally last year in Game 7 against Boston, Miami had a shot by Jimmy Butler to win the game, itās going to be good series
Good analysis!
Settle down about Embiid. Boston is really good. They went 7
Miami's goal will be to keep the games close and be better in the final minutes to win games.
š 4:17 who caught that joker reference?
I mean this in a very nice way, I canāt wait until you two learn about what playoff basketball actually values after Miami beats the Celtics. Itās going to be fun watching yāall make up excuses about why Boston self destructed, but instead you should use it as a learning experience about what actually matters in the playoffs
Jimmy needs to be MJ for the Heat to win this series. Like the Heat are starting Gabe Vincent, Max Strus, and Kevin Love lol. And I say this as a hardcore Heat fan.
Wheres Jason? Smh
There are people that were offended by Perks comments and now Embiid have to face all retributions (on social media – Embid honestly did not look affected by loosing – he got his MVP and his money – can not be moved from NBA so it is all smoke in the wind)
Good point about Doc in the 3rd, I honestly think he mailed it in and gave up..
Clearly blue shirt guy donāt know Jimmy ankle is why he changed up in the New York series
Think we will see Bam on JT and Jimmy on Brown i believe Strus can guard Al if Boston goes big.
You guys didn't bring up the Heat's zone defense. What makes the Heat so good and hard to beat is that they are very chameleon like. They can adapt their style to fit each opponent. They give Boston lots of problems and Boston isn't hard to beat when their threes aren't falling.
Erik Spoelstra is gonna coach circles
Celtics defense is the best in the league, theyāll be able to hold Jimmy back. Boston in six
Mental weakness is a weakness dudes
They heat r not a weak mentality team
These people said Gabe Vincent is not a good defender. I'm actually speechless
Comparing the ādepthā on Milwaukee to Bostonās lmfaoooooooooo
Can we really say that the 76ers and Hawks have a better defense than Miami ? Cause they got pushed to seven both times with those defenses
Himmy and spo in 6
These guys have picked the more ātalentedā team every series. Not just about talent fellas. Bucks, suns, warriors all in Cancun. Sometimes itās about more than just talentā¦ heat are in a groove and are more than the sum of their parts right now. Best player, best coach, and tons of momentum
dam its no surprise anymore in how celtics are their own worst enemy lol..sad but very very true…
Harden, Embiid, Karl Malone the worst first ballot HOF playoff performers EVER if you look at how bad their efficiency drops and overall Numbers especially in the biggest games.
Miami fans awfully confident. Theyāre gonna have to learn the hard way that the Celtics are not the New York Knicks š¤£
These guys talk about the Heat as if they have no limitations and could do no wrong.
GET OUT HUSTLED
People must donāt look at weird stats
Like DIVING FOR LOOSE BALL PLAYS OR GANG REBOUNDING OR HUSTLE PLAYS
CAUSE THE HEAT NUMBER 1 in all those little Weird stats I said
& PEOPLE be laughing at all the undrafted players MIAMI HAVE
But THEY HUNGRY & just want it more
TYLER HERRO BROKE HIS HAND DIVING ON THE GROUND OUT OF BOUNDS
Thatās what they all say ! At some point youāre what youāre and boston might be talented but theyāre flawed period
