Krispy Kreme better play tonight. I don’t care if his knee is ropa vieja.

Tickets are pretty darn cheap considering it's "playoffs"
Finding tickets in the 100's sections for under $100 is cheap

Haha yes. A Knicks Celtics Nets Lakers regular season game... you won't find tickets for less than $150 in the 100's sections for example. The pricing is barely more expensive than a regular season hawks game.

I've noticed there's less tickets for sale but plenty of solid deals. If we win tonight and the next home game is game 3 vs Boston. Tickets in the 100's will all be $200-250 minimum is my guess. We shall see.

It’s time, it’s going to be A LOT of Jimmy and then everyone else will get in where they can. Hopefully the supporting cast is more efficient this year, shooters have to keep building on their recent surge of shooting

We're really not good enough.

not a huge difference between losing to Hawks to losing 4-1 to Celtics.

Just more embarrassing, but would be far from surprising to me.

Really hard to find reasons to get hyped

The playoffs are different than the regular season.

If Miami faces Boston, they still have enough defenders to make it the games difficult for them. Miami does need a tougher 3pt shooting PF like they had in Tucker and/or Crowder, it would have been nice had Highsmith played under control on offense more like they did. Sadly, the games will need decent 3pt shooting from the role-players which has been questionable for most of the season, if they can get decent 3pt shooting Miami has a solid shot.

The timing of Trae Young being made available for trades couldnt have come at a better moment. Hope it creates a distraction.

And no, i dont want him on this team. Not a fit, and we are not giving that guy 5 years 300+ million on his next deal

I don't think it's a given Miami wins tonight, if they were still heavily tilted towards defense I'd feel much better about tonight's game, but with Miami trying to be more offensive/less defensive than last year it worries me, Miami doesn't have the offensive talent to outscore teams and if the 3pt shooting is off, Miami could get blown out like they did so much this year.

I hope ALL the Miami players are giving good effort on the defensive end now that it's win or go home time.

Vs the Hawks this season:

Jimmy (3 Games): 25-8-6 63/100/93 shooting on 13 FGA

Bam (4 Games): 25-10-4 62/0/92 shooting on 15 FGA

Herro (4 games): 14-7-6 36/21/100 shooting on 16 FGA

Hopefully Jimmy and Bam have big nights and Tyler is able to figure them out tonight so we have some momentum carrying into the playoffs from our 3 best players

yeah everyone knows that the heat has this one in the bag.

i was talking to a relative earlier and we both agreed that the play in is stupid. people in the 7th seed should be already be locked in unless there's a two or 3 way tie. i only see this as the owners to try to cash in before the post season starts. as it stands it doesnt make sense

I think you'll see that sort of line from Adebayo before you'd see it from Butler.

That said, I would have gone with "inb4 Herro, Lowry, Vincent, and Strus combine to go 7-30 on 3s in a 108-95 loss".
