Great win guys. If all your guys continue to perform at their average level or better, you should close out this series easily against the Milwaukee Bambies. Without Giannis, they just have no business being in the playoffs. Honestly, this series should be 3-0 right now if not for that anomaly Game 2.

Nah. That team is very talented without Giannis. Losing Herro was bad, but now we lost Dipo and not having that combo can freeze our offense if our roleplayers aren't on fire like they have been lately.

I disagree. The Heat without Herro (& now Dipo) are punching well above their weight class. The Bucks are a better team even without GA. This series will still be a struggle and next game is very important, a must-win for both sides.

We have only two ball-handling guards left, Lowry and Vincent. Better wait to drape the stanchions with ropes.

this is bad for him and the team no doubt about it but on the bright side he's still alive so i think he'll do just fine. whether he retires now or "tomorrow" he is going to have some roll at some level in the NBA

i wouldnt be surprised to see him as a broadcaster at some point

Yes. Living is the important thing. And he's still rich. He will be ok. Needs to invest properly.

Damn what was he saying?

Yelling F bombs and screaming "NO NO NO NO NO NO!" in desperation/fear as he was running to Dipo. I briefly had my back turned to do something and it was so loud it made me turn around to see what happened. I always make it a point to watch our games on Sun Sports but I make an exception for ESPN home games and watch the above the rim feed. It feels like being at the arena since the crowd noise is much louder without any announcers and you can hear the players and coaches clearly.

Damn that sounds sick, don't think we have that in Canada though

Don't fall into the trap over overreacting to gm3 win & having the lead. Like i said after gm1, gm2 wld be different & it was. I doubt gm4 will be as contrasted but it shouldn't be an easy game for Miami. Wouldn't shock me Bucks even the series.

We're fighting an uphill battle w/ all these injuries & i commend our heart, spirit & fight. I love this f*ckin team. Eventually these set backs will be too hard to overcome, esp against the #1 team

The Dipo news really does make me feel sick. I understand exactly what Spo was saying now about wanting to throw up. So unfair to keep happening to a guy like that, and now the ultimate dagger.

Fine for him to opt in. Maybe we can use some type of injured player exception since its very likely career ending. Horrible news regardless though.

Vincent / Lowry
Strus / Robinson
Butler / Martin
Love
Adebayo / Zeller

I assume we’ll be running this, along with the two PG lineups now that Vic has gone down. Looking a lot thinner from a depth standpoint, but really, the playoffs is about an 8 man rotation for the most part.

Need shooters to stay hot to keep the defense honest, and Jimmy to continue his saiyan run.

This is where Hayward Highrise is going to come into the equation and earn a big contract from us.

with 2 guards down do we finally see spo go big and put jimmy at SG in spurts now?

Giannis is playing tonight and that should close us out. It was a good little run before the bball gods chose to smite us with injury. Our roleplayers stepped df up. Major, major props to them.

Some people never learn, when will they learn. What's the definition of insanity again? That's right doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.
