No way was that a flop.

Please get to full strength just to kick this Heat team's ***.


Jimmy 'Kevin Garnett' Butler. Jokic would absolutely obliterate him and he knows it :lol:

Guess not a flop since yeah, he was pushed to the ground. I just meant more acting of being on the ground for five minutes. Half expected to see this:

Boy I'm so surprised that the Heat aren't some East juggernaut when they can't try-hard against teams resting guys or with a boat load of injuries to starters. Oh wait, the Nuggets were missing two starters? Oh well....

No excuse for violence, but a good lesson for all of us to not start **** if you can't be bothered to watch how it ends.

While we're here, can anybody point me toward the origin of the Haslem mythology? The idea from Heat twitter that Jokic is supposed to be scared of a 41 year old he outweighs by 50lbs...

Doctors probably wouldn't let Haslem in a boxing ring but he's supposed to get in a street fight with a sea monster? Leave it tf alone. If Morris can't handle it Haslem definitely can't.

Same origins as the mythical "Heat Culture," as if all teams don't look for hard-working players. Just a load of crock.

Came here to discuss this. Weird start - maybe they've already started tuning McMillan out after there was talk of the impending Hawks dynasty? And unlike the Bucks, I don't know what it takes for them to get back to winning since, like you said, everyone is playing for them. Maybe a classic case of too many cooks (too many cooks!) and a consolidation trade - Ben Simmons.... come on down!

Everyone came out of that looking awful. Morris is dirty as hell, and the Heat are just generally much more into the aesthetic than anything of substance (lots of "hold me back!" energy with that franchise), but Jokic needs to get his temper under control. This isn't the first time he's lashed out like this, and he's lucky he didn't actually hurt Morris.

This is like some Serbian mafia **** and I absolutely love it. The "Jokic Brothers" have a joint twitter account? Incredible.

They created it solely to reply to Marcus! You've got to figure the Morris' have been bullies their whole lives, gotta suck to finally run up against bigger, meaner bullies.

The Heat players attempting to see Jokic in the hall after the game is absolutely hilarious.

As a rather non-violent person, I love it. Karma is a bitch and if your dumbass cheap shots a 300 lbs Serbian and you are dumb enough to immediately turn your back on him, well, I for one am not going to feel sorry for you when your ribs crack in response.
