Looks like we might have a game here.

It’s really hard to be as locked in as the Heat have been for the full 48.

if they do win - does demar get himself another $100 mil 3 year deal?

Maybe if he beats the Celtics but at this point I'm just wondering if they're going to get to 70 points here. Total no show so far.

That's a brutal sequence. A wide open miss to a Herro transition 3.

Celtics playing Heat without Butler or Rozier isn't really fair. But I'm sure they felt the same way having to play game 7 without Tatum.

Derozan and Caruso are both rotting on the Bulls tbh.

Is it fair the Sixers to play the Knicks without Randle?

OKC to play Pelicans without Zion or Kings without Heurter/Monk?

Pacers to play Bucks without Giannis?

Injuries happen. Sometimes they fall in your favour, sometimes they don’t.

They’re sending a soft double / hard hedge on him as well. The rest of the Bulls should be getting open looks. Just need to hit the damn shot.
