Bam 5-15, getting abused by Lopez. Next to zero help for Butler tonight.

Even if Jimmy Butler goes off on offense does Miami have enough defense to get enough stops. I don't think so

This series is over because Heat have no other good players outside of Butler.

I see a 7 game series. Bucks will lose game 6.

These playoffs have been really fun so far and a lot of March Madness type feel and excitement. You’ve got the one and done of the play in, which I wasn’t a fan of at first but now enjoy it. You’ve got the “Cinderalla” lower seed teams either being competitive or in the Heat and Lakers cases taking series leads. You’ve got the blue blood programs, Celtics, Lakers, Warriors, and even Knicks/Sixers fan-base wise are good for league viewership. Then you’ve got a ton of good young players showing the future (like top draft picks often showing out in March) and a mix of the established/championship level past stars too . I actually am enjoying there not being any head and shoulders above everyone else favorites and the parity is especially good for casual fans and hardcore fans alike.

That has to be an extremely deflating.. Coming out of a time out and you give them a fast break layup

I suggested trading J Brown straight up for Butler. And I got crickets.. You guys must be Delusion..

Tatum and Butler would be the toughest duo since Jordan and Pippin

Well based on rules that should have been a technical and Butler for pulling on the rim but no referee would have the nerve to give him that lol

Cannot believe what I am seeing
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Maybe Giannis will ask out if the Bucks lose the 1st round.
