This is it Ladies and Gents. A magical ride, where I was the first OP (beating Chicago) and now will be the last. It's been a ball, so let's end this in style in 3 more games :D

I still ain't SCURRED! Let's go HEAT!!

I love this team. Let’s go Heat. Fire off as many threes as you can. That’s what got us here, don’t let go of the rope!

Whatever happens at least Heat avoided generational embarrassment of blowing a 3-0 lead. But, lets still give it a solid try to at least push this to 6 games.

That ELO forecast option (whatever that is) actually gives us a 4% chance and that's what I'm rolling with!

At the point in the series where there are no more major adjustments left to make, either we play very well and shoot near 50% from three or prepare for the Summer

Either way, it’s been a hell of a time gunnin’ for this Heat team right here. And much love to all of y’all, even Iggie, as it’s always great to root for this squad with you all!

Let’s give them hell!
Long Live Winnie. Mamba siempre

You can see Spo is flustered & some what p*ssed, in his own way, after the loss. The way he abruptly scratched his head in frustration lol. As composed as he usually is it's good to see him upset - We know we're going to head into gm5 w/ desperation & intent. We've gone through a lot of adversities to get here, this loss is going to be frustrating because we've fought so hard w/ what we've got. Spo has also coached his f*ckin' ass off these playoffs. We simply wld not be here w/out him.

He's really wanting to reiterate how competitive we are, how much we love these sort of back against the wall situations & how we've done everything the hard way and will continue to, as if willing our guys to. He says we're built for what gm5 will be about & how we love being in that environment. I think this is more a msg to the team of what's needed for gm5. He wants this gm5 win in the worst way - he has belief they can win it, this is huge mindset for the team wether they win it or not.

He mentioned how 'we're going to stack up more of those plays" talking about the hustle plays Love showed as if it's going to actually happen & he then kinda paused & stared down & says slowly, again, how our guys love this sort of thing lol. Gotta love the guy & his fighting spirit. He's ready to get gm5 started.

Still have faith. Need 2 role players to light it up from down town to have a chance. Not ridiculous by any means.

"we can talk about Max Strus, Gabe Vincent, Duncan Robinson all we want but if we're not getting it from Jimmy & Bam then it doesn't matter. Gabe Vincent & Max Strus bouncing back in gm5 that's not winning you gm5 & it's not gonna be enough to win you 3 straight games. If the Heat are gonna do something that only 1 team has done in the history of the league they need Jimmy Butler..."

As much as i'm a staunch defender for this team, i'm going to continue to be a fierce supporter & cheer our guys on in gm5, i also understand it was always going to be tough winning an NBA Finals w/ Jimmy Butler not himself. But i ride this sh*t out w/ the team win or lose......

....This is the time when the most talented players on the team must step up to win a Championship. Jokic, Murray have both stepped up, we haven't been able to balance that attack & counter w/ both Jimmy & Bam. This is a different series w/ Jimmy being himself. Unfortunately the poor guy is having ailing issues, what ever ailments that may be. He came in shooting 3s and missing 2ft's in a crucial gm5 @home....you know something's up.

I BELIEVE we got ONE MORE in us. I'll be happy if we can get two from these mother f*ckers so we can say we took 2 frm Nuggets w/ a hobbled Butler, no Herro & a buncha undrafted role players - how f*ckin' good cld you possibly be that you give 2....3? gm's to a hobbled & depleted 8th seed.

Let's take this sh*t back to the 305.
