"While Jones Jr. (MIA) is already driving toward Smart (BOS), who is in a legal guarding position in his path before contact, Walker (BOS) veers into Jones Jr., increasing his momentum, driving him through Smart's space."

I'm already looking ahead to lakers in the finals. Bam vs AD. Butler vs Lebron

Awesome! When he first went down I was saying we'd be fine without him. And in my defense I guess we have been fine so far. But at this point it's clear that he'll really help keep the ball moving, help the offense stay efficient, and help in eliminating scoring droughts. We just could def use another really good player out there so it's awesome that one is on the way.

If the nba want Boston vs lakers just admit it and Miami go home, but don't pull this crap on us like that

He was playing all-star caliber ball this year. People act like he wasn't really really food this year when healthy.

Nope. I think by now you should realize that the HEAT don’t mind beating both the opposing team and the refs. The more the merrier.

The Bucks were a 3-8 team since March 6th and all of their advanced stats fell off a cliff from that point on.
The Heat were a 5th seed for reasons that remain valid.
Dragic, Nunn, Herro, and Robinson, are a set of defensive vulnerabilities that Spo won't be able to hide 48 minutes per game.

This won't even be close.

Well, you sure are going to be damned surprised this series then. I would bet a serious amount of money that the Heat don't lose in less than 6, I put the chance at perhaps 1 in 500, less than 7, 1 in 20.

You are seriously underestimating the Heat. I am sure you think that the Celtics would've swept the Bucks, while having just gone the distance against the Raptors! The evidence isn't there to back what you're saying.

These are of course calculated guesses on my part and differentials do tend to tighten in the playoffs. We'll find out soon enough. So far the Heat are resorting to zone-D to hide Dragic and stop Kemba's pnr but they are playing some piss poor zone D.

I'm sticking with Celtics in 5.

So you still confident with Celtics in 5? You're predicting a back door sweep? I think last night a lot of Heat doubters just got a serious wake up call. The Heat have played their best defense, offense and overall game in the 4th quarter. They've consistently made clutch shots, made clutch blocks, and had clutch defense.

I think you and many other people were underestimating how clutch the Heat have been all season, and while that isn't always the easiest quantifiable thing, it's easily seen night in and out with the Heat. They were losing and behind in 95%+ of that game, but in the few possessions they needed to get ahead, they made the shots they needed, and got the block they needed to win.

That's the kind of stuff that is the difference between a good and great team, Heat are a good team, but when they start doing the stuff they did last night consistently, which they've been doing more and more consistently this season as time has gone on, they are making the transition to a great team.

This isn't about super stars lifting their team like with most great NBA teams, we're seeing one of the few examples in NBA history of a bunch of good players coming together to make a great team.

We're seriously seeing history in the making right now.
