I’m not a big +/- guy as it doesn’t always tell a full story BUT I’m shocked Jaylen had the team highest tonight.

Brown is a smart guy and richer than I could ever dream to be but he's not a player I would want as my #2 option if you're trying to win a championship. The anti-Derrick White. JB's game is all about physicality and athleticism. I'll happily eat **** if he proves me wrong this POs but I doubt I'm eating poop :lol:

They just didn't pull it out, they won convincingly and limited the Heat to below 90 pts.

Yeah, poor word choice on my part, lol.

D effort was fine given the shooting, but not spectacular. We did concede the shots we wanted to and they missed em. I give their lack of offense slightly more credit for their points total, though.

Didn’t they say it was tightness?

Even if it isn’t tightness, if they were saying he was a slight chance to return it hardly sounds like he badly strained his calf.

Stan had been pretty favorable to us all season long but tonight decided enough was enough and went back to his old hatin’ ass ways. Big brother Jeff needs to talk some sense into him because I’ve scarcely heard a worse take than saying Bam can do whatever he wants after the whistle because Tatum took an extra shot like everyone in the NBA does 15 times a game.

In other news DWhite with the obvious VC, the fake comeback as the refs reward the try harder and ignore the contact we took even on makes (cough b2b White dunks cough) means nothing to me, and overall JB was straight cheeks (although I felt he took a lot of contact on his drives too).

True.

The lack of offense is legit.

They're just an overachieving bunch.

Stan was very critical but he was on point most of the time, but not the Bam flagrant. He deserved it.

I thought he was speaking as a coach, in the sense that he'd get pretty mad with any of his players if they did what Tatum did. I thought his commentary in general tonight was spot on, but it looks like I'm in the minority :)

Tatum 21.7% usage lol, 4th on the team, led by Jaylen at 31%.

This has to change against the real playoff teams.

D White smokes it tonight! Great effort on both ends and a special playoff performance….. a lot of bushleague crap going on during the game with Bam and CO. Zinger and Tatum were getting muffed up as the Heat Culture says. Hopefully Tatums ankle is good to go for Wed, that could have been ugly. Such a dirty play by his “friend”. JT needs to draw a line with these so called friends, dudes trying to hurt you out here and your trying to talk and invite him over for dinner! Smfh

It’s hard watching JB play this series like brutal. Tatum is missing shots but idk what the **** brown is doing out there. Should never have this usage rate but I guess that’s what teams want against the Celtics even if brown has a much easier assignment than what Tatum deals with.

This is really where the lack of depth gets scary. Even if we just had Grant Williams to give us 24 minutes off the bench for a couple of games, I'd feel more comfortable.

Who gets those minutes now? Hauser? Kornet? Tillman? Don't like any of those options when the chips are down. Not one bit.

Derrick was freaking awesome! Richard is a proud dad tonight, for sure.

That trade continues to look like a genius move by Brad.

Let's close em out in game 5 !!

Same. Needed a big shot from Hauser and PP today while the Heat were threatening to cut into the lead yet they couldn’t do anything
