Well, Spoelstra is 3-1 vs. Celtics in playoffs all time (lone loss in 2023 NBA Playoffs). Funny that it happened after Pat Riley moved to the front office, but more importantly, ever since they made the sign-and-trade for LeBron James.

If they can't defeat Spoelstra, maybe they get Spoelstra.

Thoughts on Celtics possibly going after him should they lose in the playoffs.


Lmao spo not only re up with miami but he hates the celtics as much as bam and jimmy. You not getting him even if u offer him $200m contract

The Heat didn't want this problem but they have it anyway. You wanna coast through the regular season and party? Well you have the almighty to deal with.

Being critical of my team means unlike the lot of the heat fans I ain't delusional about what im seeing.

Celtics in 5 baby.

The “almighty?” :lol: You guys just lost at home to an 8 seed without its best player and another starter. You realize everyone can see through the fake bravado, right?


I remember Jordan losing to the Nets in the first round. I remember the Mavs losing a series to the 8th seed.

Who cares. It's not unprecedented.

Call me when bron carries you to another unfilling title.

Everyone sees right through Miami fragile insecure we woulda won if we had better players lol excuses.

You lost to Marcus Smart in the ECF. That's embarrassing.


You beat a 1 leg Jimmy that took you to 7 games when Pritchard pulled his bad knee back. Heck u had to use help from the league to wipe out strus 3pointer 4 minutes after it happened hahaha. Miami dgaf who Boston have in that line up and after getting trashed in game 2 by 2 rookies, bam, role player martin and herro, you coming here bragging about Celtics winning that series hahaha. You not really saying ****

The guy just says whatever nonsense he wants and then backtracks and admits to trolling and not being serious to save face after. No use bothering with his BS. Should be banned as a self professed troll but guess that's allowed now.

in 2019 (kawhi year), the raptors lost game 1 to dj augustin and the orlando magic. they came back and swept them the next 4.

imho, celtics should win the next 3 - if this series go 6 or 7 games, then i don't trust the celtics to respond in tight games against better teams. like i would pick the knicks to beat the celtics if that was the ecf matchup.

This game is huge to make it a 6 game series. Miami needs to win this because if Boston wins then I see them winning in 5.

I didn't know the Heat had this many fans judging by all the empty seats at their arena. I wonder if they will even sell this game out?

The Heat have sold out games for the last 14 years. It is 2nd longest active streak and 5th longest all time. Dallas has longest active and all time streak.

So yeah, it'll be a sellout.

I agree with what you're saying, but the difference is heat already upset the celtics last season in the playoffs (with butler)...the magic didn't do that.

Well it's a fact lol...Heat fans on here are one of the largest fan bases with one of the most active team forums. Lets go Heat chants are heard all over the place on the road. Miami sells out all their games, but the people buying the expensive tickets don't represent the average fan.

Heat actually 4th in attendance this year and are always up there...

If anyone feels some kind of way about my ridiculousness that's on them. I appreciate you're free diagnosis though, saved me lots of money spent on therapy.

Miami fans can't handle any kind of light trolling that's on them.
Seems more like you can't handle push back. It's, again, you free to act like an **** and on everyone else to just adapt



My friend. I haven't posted a single serious take in here.

The effort it takes to get in your head is scary.

My friend, I don't think you're capable of posting any sort of serious post, period.
