The Celtics know this is it if they lose. They are going to come out like a pack of wild dogs. Defend the home court at all cost.

Watching Mozzarella's post gm interview was brutal, yet again. Every question was criticism & media treating him like a special needs person. He continues to justify their mistakes. There's no wisdom there, it's mostly arrogance.

Somebody asked defensively what did Miami do, in the last 6mins, to make it hard for Boston to score. Parmesan replied w/ "They played zone but i thought we played better plays. Jayson made the right play & when we didn't turn it over i thought we got good looks'. Again all arrogance, no wisdom.

Camembert is clueless he's getting out coached. The snake rots from the head down, if your leader is clueless, blind & arrogant the ship will sink when the pressure rises & that's what we're currently seeing. He's exposed. Ricotta is melting & he's taking his players down w/ him.


Below is Tatum defending his clueless coach. Both going down this sinking ship lead by Feta.

Read on Twitter



Contrast to Brown's statement saying they didn't make plays down the stretch. He states after asked about Heat's zone "We haven't figured it out how to exploit it. Every single time down the floor we gotta recognize certain situations". Very different to Cheeseman's justification. This is a coaching issue & it seems Brown may have inadvertently pointed the finger at Mozzarella.

It was strange watching Tatum's post game. He's aloof & acts as if this is regular season & not the ECF & they're about to lose their opportunity at going to the finals & winning an NBA Championship. He's not angry, doesn't look frustrated or has any resentments. This is also the same guy who's got ZERO field goals in the 4Q this series acting like everything is ok.

Read on Twitter



There's no real leadership in this team. Steven Adams & Udoka were good leaders capable of guiding Celtics but Gorgonzola ain't it. If you're best player acts like this after losing 2 at home & he ain't it either. This is why they'll not only lose gm3 but will be swept in gm4. What possible game plan does Brie have that Spo won't already have several counter punches for.

Jimmy & his dogs are ready for the kill shot. This series was over before it began.
Let's go for their throats here, then their hearts on Tues.

This is so underrated. Esp. str8 after the so called foul that gave Tatum 3ft's (revealed was an error). The Stones on G-Vince.

3-0 would be such a death knell. Don’t give them oxygen. Assert dominance and blow these phuckers out.

Go in with the mentality this is a must win! They are good on the road. They win this one, they’ll feel like they can win another. Cannot give them confidence! Win this one, and then the rest will work itself out. The disrespect is huge. The books are picking the Celtics to win by 3.5 points. ESPN Analytics says we only have 35% shot at winning the series.
PHUCK THEM ALL AND SHOCK THE WORLD!!!

The Heat went 0-5 in the regular season with Tony Brothers, but are 2-0 in the playoffs.

We're playing with house money now fam.

Whatever happens, this team exceeded ALL expectations. They gave us a ton of memories. They're giving it their all.

Nothing to lose, everything to gain.

Now Now, lets take a step back and really digest this. I digress that sure if your sitting at home at the end of the regular season our expectations were very different than prior to lazing them up before game 1 of the season. We were a number 1 seed last year, with players whom were expected to improve in their games, the expectations from the beginning were that we should at a minimum find ourselves in a competitive series in the eastern conference.

Your looking at this from the point of view we all had as we started watching this team during the regular season "we significantly started to drop those expectations", but lets not loose sight of what we as fans thought was our real expectations, go no further than reading the thread where we all took turns guessing our regular season numbers for the team.

Now our team somehow woke up, remembered how to shoot, or locked in, regardless of whatever the combination of different factors that got us back to playing Miami ball from last year. We now find ourselves within the expectations set by the coaching staff/ownership/management/players themselves, I trust they never lost sight of that ceiling even as fans lost it watching this team.

They should get passed the Celtics at this point being up 2-0. This means they have officially as of now met expectations in the grand scheme of things. There is no house money, on the table until they get into the Finals, once day one of the finals vs Nuggets you can say what you just said above.

Big game tonight. Need to keep setting pace for the series on focus, intensity and poise.

Right now Boston is clinging to some garbage narrative that they're a better road team than home team. Well this Heat squad ain't the bunch that is prone to allow the opposition to come into their home arena and dictate. Let's hold the fort and get our shooters hot at home and let the doubt continue to creep into the Celtics players' and coaches' minds. This is a PRIME opportunity for a statement game at home for Miami.

There are definitely adjustments to be made. Boston found their most consistent success last game with the high pick and roll. I don't know what the best counter to that is, but I know Spo will be cooking something. The high pick and roll seems to allow Tatum to have an extended runway to get downhill and either pierce through the paint defense or collapse the D and hit open shooters. Perhaps it's a matter of throwing more bodies at Tatum to restrict his runway (a la Giannis) but Boston has some shooters that can make us pay. Responding to this dynamic will be crucial as Boston will surely look to lean on this.

As always...

1. F**K boston

2. Just keep STROKIN
