Wasn't Game 1 great? Let's do this again, let's get greedy
Hope Caleb is ok after that late Marcus Smart hit on his back.

Let's go HEAT!

1. LET'S GO HEAT
2. We need to do something about the Zeller minutes. IDK if it's trying to give Bam a breather during some of Rob Will's minutes to get Zeller in at a time when Celtics aren't playing 5-out or what. But, it was ugly and concerning last game. Need to give Bam enough rest to be his charged up self
3. We need to keep our offense moving. I know Celtics defense is fantastic, but if we get stagnant that plays right into their hands. They thrive off of late shot clock misses and exploiting a defense that can't fully set. That's the flywheel for their big runs.
4. Refs, please call the blatant charges on Tatum and Brown this game.
5. Just keep STROKIN

I know but none of that came against Boston. He didn't show any ability to survive against the 5-out Boston was playing and he looked lost on offense too. Hopefully Lowry can help get something positive out of his minutes. But if he's facing the 5-out lineup, I'm VERY concerned. It was basically a flood of advantage going towards Boston for the entirety of Zeller's first stretch of minutes in the series.
I trust Spo and Co. to find better ways to make it work.

His screen setting ability is very overlooked. Opens the play up in a way that reminds me of how UD used to do. I would not be surprised if similar numbers were produced with Jimmy.

Let’s not overreact to Zeller having one bad game okay? Dude has been excellent for the most part in his limited minutes.
I think Highsmith gets some burn tonight but if Zeller plays again know that it’s for a reason and hopefully he performs better

Let's go heat!
surprise them again... By far all the pressure is on them and the refs will cheat their az off If they have to ...so expect it!
But remember, you have NOTHING to lose.

Did this just become a must-win with Scott Foster out?

We need to keep moving the ball around and finding open shooters. Don’t relax and allow Boston to get any momentum hit them where it hurts and we should be up 2-0 going back to Miami. Should Duncan Rob get a few minutes or just keep him on the bench?

Yes because you have to assume he's reffing game 3 or 4. You're going to want that second win and not have the non Scott Foster game 3 or game 4 to be a real must win.

He's known to be tough on the home team too. Damnit...

8 point underdogs Game 1
10 point underdogs Game 2.. crazy numbers considering this is the ECF. The level of disrespect is insane.
Also crazy considering this boston team is more beatable than last year.
