You don't want this game close, you want a blowout to try to wake up this team, sadly I think Boston has way too much momentum to go with the superior talent, it might be over, they just have to play the games. If Miami loses this series yes, Miami should move Butler to wherever they can get the most for him, send him to Charolotte.

Butler isn't going anywhere. Your boy Bam will be outta here LONG before JB.



You gotta trade Bam or Herro, and I wouldn't trade Bam beccause decent big men are hard to come by.

Would you trade Herro and Lowry to Milwaukee for Middleton and Portis?

I don't think either are untouchable. Everybody talks about how lamb is so much of a cornerstone, but I would trade him in a heartbeat for a real star, which he is not.

I would not do that trade bc we need a real star 1/2 option to put next to Jimmy. That's why yes you trade Bam and Herro for guys like KD or Dame.

Horrible game that was lost in the first quarter.

Need our guys to find their game early in Game 6 and have some confidence. Their shooters are waaaaaay too open and comfortable right now. Energy and intensity needs to be ratched up a number of notches.

maddening how much time Duncan wastes just dribbling around then going for a layup when we're down big and time is limited. just stat padding cause it ain't working to help us come back.

All this anxiousness is gonna feel really stupid if we beat the brakes off of them in Game 6.

Sports are dumb like that.

Starting backcourt of Lowry and Strus with 8pts on 3-11 shooting with 2 boards, 2 assists and 4 turnovers.

White and Smart had 47 points on 15-23 shooting, 10-14 threes, 6 boards, 3 assists and 7 steals and 3 turnovers.

After a lead like that, they were just playing keep away. Any time we tried to get momentum, they crushed us. I voted for us to win in 6, we're at the **** around stage...

At least I got to enjoy some clutch play last night by the Panthers.

Tonight 9 the entire game


Forget that, let's get real and call out Butler for that pathetic showing. Thats why we looked like a team that didnt belong on the court. Such a bi-polar player. When he cares he's great, when he doesnt and treats things like the regular season this is what we get.

Sure hope it happens. I don't want to be back in Boston for Game 7 having lost 3 in a row.

A blowout is the only thing that will make me forget this horrid game. Hate the smugness of this Boston team. Hate everything about them.

Seems like a natural thing for him to piss sitting with the way he played tonight.
