Miami is going to be a headache for any team they play in the finals.

Boston in’s trouble all of a sudden, and unlike Toronto, unfortunately I don’t think they have the internal fortitude to battle back from 0-2 hole. They should have won game 1 for sure. This one, not so much.

Also, Dragic is a ballsy mfer!! He was huge in the 4th with his scoring.

Indeed, he saves his energy for the 4th quarters.

He’s been doing it for years since he was a young man on the Bulls.

Yeah. Rookie year he played 48 minutes in a playoff win primarily guarding LeBron. At that moment I knew he was a special case. Basketball and situational IQ just sparkling. Marcus Smart is the only player who can compare on the Celtics but he simply isn’t skilled or big enough to have Butler’s team effect.


Marcus shoots too many 3's which hurts his team. Butler would never have a facet of his game which hurts the overall team success.

No surprises you’re here after that game. Maybe you should focus on your own team. I savoured every second of beating you that this series doesn’t matter

Stormin' Norman loving the 48 Minutes Of Intensity. Jimmy doing him proud!

Boston losing at “home” in these playoffs bodes well for the Heat.

This series isn't over. It's not like BOS was getting blown out.

I really want a Miami-Lakers finals. Watching Spo devise a defensive gameplan against Lebron with Butler/Crowder/Iggy would be fun

Man just feels like Miami got the juice this season.

Hell of a squad.

Zone appears to be the Celtics absolute kryptonite. They have no answers. This could be over quick.
