Ugh this is terrible you guys we won't have much to complain about for the next two days! Haha I'm kidding it was glorious!

Tatum, Brown, KP and DWhite led the scoring and we got an incredible team effort on DEFENSE! Celtics, baby!

Not much drama in this game. Celts were the better team and clamped the Heat offense and blew em out. Thanks for bouncing back and helping lower our anxiety, Celtics!

Game 4 Monday, Go C's!

The Heat thought they had a chance. Cute.

Complete team win. If I had to single someone out, it'd be Brown, who played under control the whole game. Another guy would be White -- super reliable. Also, Pritchard is fearless.

If Boston just plays defense like this..like they are supposed to, how the hell is miami's lineup supposed to keep up.. Not a single game should be close if we decide to play defense..

Tonight we did and look at the results.

Good win. Did what they are capable of on defense. Offense def could have been better. 2nd half was below average

They did what they were supposed to do and what I expected them to do. Losing this game wasn't an option for any serious team. Now do it again in game 4. I'm already over the heat. Get this over with. We have bigger fish to fry.

Good things happen when you close out on shooters. Starts with the defense.

White’s defense and hustle set the tone. I loved seeing him run point more today. Kept our offense composed.

JT had a solid game.

To be completely honest, this Miami team is hot garbage on offense. Just dont give them wide open 3s. We should not have lost one game and we definitely should not lose a second one.

VC to team for me. No one was particularly great but everyone had some good spurts

Tatum controlled the game, 22/11/6, no turnovers. 6-16 isn’t great, but he got thrown like 3 or 4 grenades, so whatever. The +22 definitely matches the eye test.

I thought KP really set a tone defensively. White had a great stretch, and was very under control, Jaylen got to punk Herro a bunch, and I thought Holiday played amazing defensively.

Could've been zero if JB didn't commit that offensive foul late in the 4th.

Pathetic really.

JT put this game away in the 2nd qtr.

Great passing, getting rebounds, and scoring in the 2nd allowed the Cs to score 40 points in the 2nd qtr.

Did not play our best game by far - but very good D, very good first half, balanced scoring by 4 guys, JT & Derrick super nova in Q2, no TOV.
Miami sucks.
Win M and W & wait for Cavs vs Magic.
Be done with these ****.
