ECF Game 5: Boston @ Miami - 5/25 @ 8:30pm EST

[fishfuego.]

Pay Victor Oladipo what he wants to keep him on our team. He is Heat culture, plays defense, AND can score the ball. We better not lose him to another team.

Please trade Duncan Robinson's contract away from our team, if we need to make space in cap.

i would be with you all the way if dipo just wasnt injury prone.

Well he needs to be signed with the possibility of an injury in mind. I doubt any other team will sign him without looking at such possibilities.

We have dipos bird rights. I’ll be shocked if we don’t keep him and it would be a terrible move. He’s ALWAYS wanted to be here and is our best bench player.

vet min signing, sure. super max? nope we already have bam and jimmy for that

[3ammy3uck3ts]

It’s hilarious to me seeing people defending the free throws. You literally can’t justify a 40 free throw discrepancy over 2 games. They shot like 2.3 times the amount of free throws we did. And again that’s not the only reason we lost last game but there was no even a glimmer of hope due to battling that on top of a 30 point deficit

Not super max, but he is worth more than vet min. Somewhere in the middle I would say. But of course, that is if he keeps performing well.

He’s not getting the vet minimum or super max lol come on guys. It is not that extreme

Injury prone? He had an injury, they botched the surgery for whatever reason and tried to gut it out to get his next contract, that didn't work and now he's repaired correctly, seems pain free vs what he was before and should be good to go and should be much better after a summer of high level scrimmages and workouts.

The issue, Oladipo going forward will be worth more than Robinson which should reflect on his contract. Miami has his bird rights to retain him so that just means going into the tax. These deep playoff runs should help pay for that tax. There should be no issue in retaining Oladipo unless he just wants to leave.

Good to hear Jimmy ain't on injury list.

So my assumption is that Herro is the only one that’s truly questionable

Yup, referee bias.
When we were leading big in game 3, the referees were on a mission to help Boston.
Miami did not get such treatment.

Rarely agree with SAS but he basically said everything ive been talking about this squad since before the playoffs began.. we lack firepower and star power. We got this far because of our defense and discipline.. but to be honest i was not going to be shocked if Atlanta beat us in the first round or if Philadelphia beat us in the second round. Not shocked either that we won both those rounds. Its been pretty amazing how far we have made it with the roster we have, with Strus and Dipo being major contributors.. strus, there were hundreds of more talented players when he declared to enter the draft.. caleb martin was a nobody.. gabe vincent as well.. dipo has been injured..

I just hope we are able to pull off two more wins because i hate Boston but the celtics are so deep. Win or lose, we have got to get creative in the offseason to stay competitive and separate ourselves further from the mid tier teams of the East.

other teams getting injury and covid restrictions helped the heat too. believe it or not

Duncan is making 18 mil a year. From what we have seen from Oladipo he is clearly worth more. Something like low 20s to mid 20s mil sound about right? He did pass up a lot of money to come here, now its time to pay up.

They’re not even “that” big. Williams is 6’8, Horford is 6’9.

We’re not going against some absolute giants. We just have to stay locked in at all times

In the bubble we took a bigger Lakers team to 7 games in the NBA Finals w/ Davis, Dwight & McGee & we're afraid of Robert Williams & Al Horford?

6 games.. but yeah I agree..

We do lack offensive fire power which is why Herro will be traded in the next year or so for a legit 25 PPG a night scorer but we made it this far because elite defense and depth and Jimmy being the best player in the playoffs by a decent margin

Same exact thing can be said for the Celtics

[3ammy3uck3ts]

Guys we are TIED 2-2 with a best 2 of 3 series playing 2 at home. It is not the end of the world idk why you all have basically given up hope! Let’s hope to god the team isn’t thinking the same!

I can’t imagine this place in 06 down 0-2 when the fuxkin goat was leading us to the promise lane

[3ammy3uck3ts]

Let’s flush out all the negativity and talk about the actual game and what we need to do to win this. We’ve had 24 hours to bitch and moan.

Good vibes only for insfo op!

[goodboy]

its rigged

it'll be a dub
