We shouldn't have lost this game (or any game in this series) to a depleted Heat. The only way we could lose is if we come unprepared - and it is all about Joe right now
Oh, I thought it was obvious - because anytime we lose we have 20+ page threads filled with overreactions, people whining, complaining, acting like the sky is falling, acting like the world is ending, and we need to fire the coach, come up with JB trade ideas..it's toxic..it's not fun to read pages and pages of negativity (case in point, the part of your post that's in bold)..I'd rather do something else that''s more enjoyable and less stressful.
Everybody is freaking out, panicking over 1 game.
I'm a big fan but we need to have some perspective here. It really doesn't matter that much in the grand scheme of things if the team of sweaty men we root for throws the ball into the hoop more times than the other team of sweaty rich men. It's not worth it to get so worked up over this stuff..
Bottom line, if we win the championship, I'll be pretty excited. If we don't win it, I'll be a little bummed out but life goes on - I'll go to work the next day, and it'll be basically like nothing happened..I'll move on with my life. But I'll definitely try to avoid this place - because being around such a high volume of toxic negativity where so many people are all complaining and writing novels about how the coach sucks, the team sucks, blah blah, is just not fun and not good for my mental health.
It is only basketball, but I am a fan. I want to win it all, all the time. I get excited when we have a great team that can win it all.
As we see from this team, it is talented but flawed. And I am afraid that what happened last year will happen again. This game was played like Miami controlled our soul. We couldn't win it if we would play for 24 hours straight
IMO it is not overreaction but a creeping fear. I had no doubt we will easily beat Miami. Not anymore. It won't be easy.
A feeling that even when the heat’s lead was just 8-10pts, it feels like we are down 20, and can’t seem to trim it down
