E. CONF. FINALS – Gm 6: Celtics (2) @ Heat (3) – 8:30PM, Sat, May 27, 2023

[Fierce1]

Looks like only Celts fans believe.

All the videos I come across online says this is the end for the Cs.

[Triple7]

This play right here is our offense. Smart and white waiting for a pass to chuck a 3. Why can’t smart just cut to the basket instead. Lowry is the only defender, as Bam is way out. Don’t tell me smart can’t score on lowry? We are bailing out the heat. It’s good if we make shots, but it’s better to go for a higher percentage shot inside. That’s why we get on slumps if our shots ain’t falling. and we continue to chuck 3’s to get back a defici

In pic 1 White isn't cutting to the basket because that's where the Heat defenders are, bunched up. Your own arrow leads directly to two Heat defenders.
Same for Smart. He's going to take the open corner three, which is like a 40% chance to score 3, over challenging Lowry, Strus and Love for a spectacular 1 on 3 layup.

What 1 on 3 are talking about? Lol
Lowry is the only defender. If love or struss helps, JB will be open, or Al or white, if they all cut inside. Plus id rather smart taking 5-10ft open jumpers than chucking 3’s. Less efficient and less chance for a rebound. The heat are taking mid ranges because that’s more efficient. A good coach will always favor higher percentage shots. Unless your players are steph and klay.

Yes because all nba point guard and best shooter in the league Gabe Vincent is playing. So we don’t have a chance, according to analysts like max kellerman, skip bayless lol

You know how it takes time for mass to move between point A and point B? In the time it takes for Smart to get to the paint, Strus and Love, who are closer to the area than Smart, will also be able to move and get there.
Yeah, JB or Al or White will be open...for a three. So just take the open corner three.
The Heat are taking midrange shots because Butler and Bam are really bad from the three. Their roleplayers are all taking a bunch of threes, just like our guys. Martin, 31 of his 54 FGA are threes. Strus, 27 of his 39 are threes. Vincent, 22 of 38. Robinson, 22 of 37. Your vision of the Heat attacking us from the midrange by design is entirely fictional. Their guys who can shoot threes are shooting them as much as our guys.

I just realized that your vision of a good offense is all 5 guys cutting inside to challenge all 5 defenders, like in the 80s. There's a reason why no one plays like that anymore, because it sucks.

[tbceltics34]

All gas, no breaks. C’s have all the momentum they could want, so keep up the intensity on defense and keep it rolling on offense. Show no mercy and keep the pressure on Miami to bring this back to Boston!

[CelticsPride18]

They have to be ready for Miami’s response

[The Corey's]

We lose, the dream is over. We win, I really think it means banner 18. No disrespect to the current best player in the world and real MVP.

Loolololol

[jonige94]

Would be an all time failure if we get knocked out by Caleb Martin, Gabe Vicent, Max Strus and Jimmy Neutron.

[Floody100]

This is Tatum’s opportunity to solidify himself as a top 5 bonafide player in this league

We're still sitting here underestimating Gabe Vincent? This dude torches the Celtics.

Tonight’s officials: Zarba, Tiven, and James Williams

I also think if somehow we pull off the miracle & win this series, the Celtics will win it all. I get that Denver is playing great but I just feel like at that point the Celtics will play free & easy. There will be very little pressure, we will now give them a free pass if they don’t beat Denver.

[zoyathedestroya]

“Hey kid, is this series going back to Boston for a game 7? Are you confident the Celtics are gonna play tonight with their heads out of their asses?”

[sam_I_am]

We will live or die by the 3.

Either the Cs make 40% or more and live to see another day or we wait until next year. Either they stop Martin, Strus, Highsmith and Robinson from shooting 50% or they go home.

Or somehow Tatum scores like 60 points & all that doesn’t matter. It could happen.

See what I'm talking about? It's so much easier to just stand around the arc and wait for a pass and jack up a 3. So today, so NBA2K. Forget cutting to the hoop and drawing a foul, or dishing out to the big man coming who's is free now that their big man has collapsed on you, and heaven forbid just going up strong.......so much easier to just stand around out there with your hands in the air.

C's playing their best ball and Heat playing their best ball C's win. But the C's are truly like a box of chocolates.

[Bostondave]

And **** game 7, **** banners, ........one game at a time. Win this one. Win the quarters and the game takes care of itself. Just narrowbeam focus on winning the next quarter. Everything will false into place from there. One game, one quarter, at a time. This is do or die time.
