Kind of interesting how the Heat are playing faster without Jimmy. Caleb Martin and Bam making quick decisions.

The Bulls have never been able to consistently punish Miami for going small with Vuc. Now Spo surprises everyone by starting Bam on Derozan.

These Bulls are cooked.

Hate to say it but come on, the Heat crowd hasn’t even arrived yet, and they’ve gone 4 minutes scoreless now with no answers defensively. This is looking grim.

Feels like a regular season game.

It’s so funny to me, the entire lower bowl is empty. Even during the Heatles era it was like this. I remember a crucial game in the 2014 Finals being like this too. Miami, vexing place.

There are other things to do in Miami. People are at the beach or buying Ferraris, etc.

Jovic is faster with the ball than I remember. I like seeing the Heat without Jimmy. They just play much faster and move the ball more instead letting him foul bait.

This is honestly sad and pathetic from the Bulls.
