I’m still sweating. Thank you Hayward in this game.

Stop blowing leads.

Guess no one told the Boston Celtics the series was over. Again.

We've been up big in all three games. Miami are serious fighters, incredibly resilient. But, when you keep making yourself dig out of 20 pt holes, eventually it catches up to you.

Three days off for Gordo to keep getting stronger and get fully re-integrated. I like our chances.

This is only the Heat's second loss of the playoffs. Win Wednesday and they'll start doubting themselves.

Great win tonight, by the way. No doom-and-gloom post-game thread is a bonus.

Jaylen the MVP. Points in the paint 60-36 was huge.

Smart woke Jaylen up. Heat should be concerned.

JB no question. Effort and D led the team tonight. Hat tip to Tatum, Smart, Kemba and Hayward. Great team win really.

Gave the VC to Brown despite that late-game booboos. Partial puff to Smart for LIGHTING A FIRE UNDER EVERYONE'S ASS.

Happy they won. I still think they have no poise at all in close games. Heat shot 27% from three and almost won because the Celtics don't know what they hell they are doing in nut cutting time.

Phew. Admittedly, I melted yesterday, but this looks much more like the Celtics I like.

A) it cannot be understated how much of an improvement it is giving Hayward all of Semi’s minutes and most of Wanamakers

B) My god was Theis straight ass on offense

C) I love Grant

D) I love and trust Marcus

I want a Duncan Robinson. Where can we get one of those?

Great win, terrible late 4th quarter again we need to play the full 48 minutes and not take our foot off for one minute otherwise they’ll hit 2-3 3’s and get back in it.

Love to see Gordon back!

Brown all day long.

Almost tempted to give it to Stevens for benching Kanter in the second half though

Voted Brown but Hayward's true effect on the game won't show up in the boxscore but there were at least two times where our offense was stagnating and it looked like the Heat were about to make a run, only for Hayward to make a big transition pass to get us some easy baskets.

I look forward to how he'll look with a game under his belt and another 3 days of rest in G4.

Brown played some great defense tonight.
