Does Jimmy Butler not get paid to do his job in the RS? So there's a special clause in his contract to allow him not show up for his team in the RS? No one in the organization call him out for this BS really?

Other teams should send the C’s cash considerations for bouncing the Heat and making sure none of their players get Heat Cultured.

In all seriousness. GG Heat fans. Helluva fight. Best of luck for next season and the offseason.

Complete waste of time of a series. Felt like I was watching pick up ball the entire time.

I don't know if I would say I hate him, but you can certainly consider me one of his doubters. He has a lot to prove. It's still an open question whether or not the C's can win with him at the helm. We'll see.

Said this after Game 2.

To me the only shocking part about this series is that it went to 5 games instead of being a sweep.

They still have to earn off a few millions from the Live Odds, brought to you by Fan Duel. Didn't you see? LOL

NBA is basically who shoots better from three wins


The Celtics defense on Martin and Herro has been absolutely suffocating in these last 2 games.
It's why Herro was getting so rowdy/chippy.

Celtics defense looks absolutely epic. Eg game 4, they didn't shoot well in first quarter but held Heat to 12 points. Going to be hard for anyone to beat them when White and Holiday are defending like this.
One day Marcus Smart will be defensive player of the year, mark my words.
