Serenity is far from serene. I got attacked for stating the obvious that KP, White and Tatum played a good game. I didn’t even say great game. No mention of JB from me. Didn’t feel he was super impactful.

Here comes the cult leader begging me to worship JB’s performance.

If Tobias Harris or Randall were on this team posters would claim “irrational hate”. Regardless of stats, I just don’t think those type of players have an impact on winning.

It’s a message board for basketball opinions. Don’t agree. Move on.

There are other words to describe how much Serenity rides for JB. I’ll just say “irrational love” the way he chases down all critical JB posters.

Enjoy Game 2. Signing off.


Oh cut the crap. You intentionally called Tatum, KP & White the big 3 in an unnecessary dig at Jaylen. You call me a “JB cult member” even though I’ve criticised Jaylen countless times & you’re yet to say one positive thing about Jaylen on this site. You say it’s not personal yet 95% of your posts on this site are jabs at Jaylen.

An insightful post by you would actually be a breath of fresh air but I’m not holding my breath.


I’m pretty sure there have been games PP has been on fire and posters called PP MVP and I even +1ed the post. Just giving credit where it’s due for good effort.

Did you scream down their neck for not including Tatum or JB in the convo? I just enjoy a team that plays hard, smart and together. Win or loss. Team basketball is more entertaining for SOME.

The big three reference was only used for the first time possibly because it’s on my mind due to a hip hop current event that has no relevance here. Tatum walks in…

“Mother eff the big three, it's just big me
, bum
What? I'm really like that
And your best work is a light pack”

In all seriousness. Do I really think we have a big three? NO. Could I possibly been praising White for his good game? YES.

Do I think JBs basketball intangibles are the most impactful to the success of this team? No. Been too many years and I’ve stated my 1000 reasons why enough. I don’t want to send you in a spiral calling out butter fingers for the turnovers he won’t get credited for today, his other low IQ plays, ball stopping, ball watching etc…

I rarely post and just enjoy reading the game thread. I don’t need to repeat the obvious others already called out during the game. But when I do post, “Serenity” follows me around demanding praise to the Most High.

Hell, I might reference a big 4 next game with Hauser and watch you lose your sh*t.

Touch grass.


lmao this is such bull

This alternate angle of Martin getting pushed by Jrue makes the play look way less suspicious. Weirdly some frames are missing...



Still upset that he collided with Tatum but it looks less intentional.

It's nothing.

JT got up immediately.

Those non-contact ones are what we should be afraid of.

He might have something there.

Jaylen got a Tech, for standing up for Tatum.


We'll see what happens.

Scal also said that it was weird that Spo called a timeout, down 16 with a minute and a half to go, and 30 seconds later Martin takes Tatum's legs out from him, which led Scal to ask, A Few Good Men style, "Did you order the code red!?"

Didn't really notice it until now... Jrue had Herro in a straitjacket the whole game. We don't need him to produce much if he's like this on the defensive end. Wow.

Pretty light work. I can’t see the heat winning a game in this series.

They can’t force enough misses against us to avoid halfcourt offense. Idk what the heats halfcourt offense rating was but it felt like it was as horrendous as usual.

**** Caleb martin I know there was a light push but didn’t like the play regardless. Get Tatum and zinger tf out of there tho.

Al hit a 3pt shot with 10:36 to go in the game, if we did not score a single point more from that point, we would still have won. Miami made a "run" when the game was over. And even then, our guys still responded and pushed the lead back to 20 from 12. Don't be bothered by it.

Still not about winning or losing one particular game. BUILD GOOD HABITS, ALWAYS. This could carry on to other games. And next thing you know you've unnecessarily extended a series (Hawks and Sixers last season then they were just unfocused coming into Heat series). If you're on the floor, play the right way.

Read on Twitter


Again, they're just humans. These are unrealistic expectations. They remain. Until that banner is raised.

Apparently the Heat are now 0-16 against the league's top teams this season.
