So Udoka and potentially Harden in Houston? What could possibly go wrong?

MVP Giannis has showed up tonight at start. Curious to see how long he can sustain it.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Jimmy Butler apparently took offense at my remark.

Heat need to stop sending doubles until he gets near the rim when they come and knock him on his ass.

The entire Heat roster outside of Butler is completely useless.

Definitely a makeup call on that screen. I know Lowry flops but that wasn’t an offensive foul

If he hadn't stuck his arm out you'd be right

Nice to see that Bam only plays well vs. us.

Miami has the best offensive rating in the playoffs? Against a elite defense?

Milwaukee has great shot blockers in the paint but I can’t see anything special with their perimeter defense. Ingles, Allen, Pat are all meh..Crowder is done. Middleton is decent..Jrue is good..it’s why Tatum and Brown always go nuclear on them..the size and pace defensively isn’t there. Jimmy doubling down on that today..

Shot making is so streaky for Miami. Bam will go from hero to bum over night and then it’s just all hope Jimmy keeps them close

Part of it is Duncan Robinson is 12/15 on threes or something

Highsmith is one of the worst players I've ever seen on an NBA court

Giannis smashed the player to get the block, post block. How the **** is that not a foul
