Heats v. NY Mesquite Rats, 5/2, 7:30PM Round 2, Game 2: SHUTDOWN THE GARDEN!

[QUIZ]

Let’s not spend the next 5 days complaining about the refs, it is what it is. Regroup for Saturday and take care of business. No reason to not leave Miami up 3-1. That crowd will be electric

If bam isn’t going to take shots whatever.. atleast grab the boards

I was going to mention that, but I'm guessing he was busy closing out shooters and boxing out? I'm not sure. Wasn't a fan of what I saw from him tonight but I probably missed some stuff. Still, we did better with him in the game. There's another game Saturday and we stole game one.

Those rebounds at the end weren’t his fault. He found himself closing out to shooters in the corner. Spo needed to either go to Love earlier or abandon the zone

We zoned ourself to death a little there but honestly I can’t even complain about anything else after a blatant rigging like that. I mean you know it’s bad when even Knicks fans are saying it

I said Heat in 6 so I’ll stick to it. 5 wouldn’t surprise me though, Jimmys coming back locked in

You know why the NBA and the refs can get away with this crap? It is because there are always fans who say, "let's not blame the refs" or "don't focus on the refs" or "yeah, there were some bad calls, but if we'd just made a few more plays..."

No, this was a screw job and we cannot gloss over it. Eventually fans need to just stop watching games Foster calls.

Incoming 40+ point game

[3ballbomber]

Poor performance by Bam with Butler out.

Also Bam is useless in the playoffs. Dude disappears.

Good job running the offense you were told to run tonight Bam and not hijacking it, if not for Scott Foster this is a massive win.

Can’t say I’m shocked at the bull narrative being spewed on here. If Spo wanted Bam scoring he would’ve ran more plays to get him in his spots. He went with a 3 point barrage style offense and it almost worked if not for the ref$

He put up 10 shots with Jimmy and Herro out and was outscored by 6 guys in tonight's game. Bam needs to get his own shots, not wait for someone to call his number.

Spo doesn’t run plays for Bam and it’s his fault he doesn’t score much lol. You have to run plays for bigs.

Bam had multiple opportunities to beat randle, robinson or that other tall white guy off the dribble instead he was hesitant, took to long to take a shot or became passive and passed it out. He played like a pussy out there, scared to fail. Scared to be great

His so called go-to move that his supporters have been heralding all season has been non existent.

His bag is inexcusably light.

During the season Bam looked better than Butler. How times have changed.

In a 5pt loss Bam only attempting 10 shots is inexcusable. This is where criticism for Bam is warranted & pours in heavy. The team can continue to tell the public he doesn't need to score to make an impact to protect his frail mind...but we know if he just even puts up his season average it wld help w/ Herro & then tonight w/ Jimmy out.

We like what Bam does outside of scoring but playing you're regular game while key players are out just isn't good enough. You need to step up - This is how it works. This is how great players perform. This is what max money is for. He grabbed just 8 boards. Everybody but Love scored more than him in the starting line up. Our un-drafted starters outscored him.

We obviously protect him from scrutiny. Instead we need to push him & hold him accountable. Mental midget needs to dig deep & find his nuts.

Meh. I'm happy with the execution for the most part. Bam does not deserve slander tonight, imo.

[ShulaDon92]

Seeing these metrics. Loving these metrics

Love, Vincent, Lowry. We need better efficiency on those spamz.

Still a good job winning the battle in the city and taking it back to the beach on a winning run.

Looks like a winnable series.

Rehydrate and keep those tendons ready for more battle, ya never know how ugly it can get out there, brehz

Tonight is new yorks night to celebrate

Spo wanted to shoot 50 3s and we did, Bam was a huge part in getting those guys open and finding them open. We ran a few sets for Bam to score like the lob over the top from Lowry off a staggered screen and it worked great. Would’ve liked to see more of that but it doesn’t matter what I want. We executed the game plan almost perfectly and we outplayed them, there’s nothing we can do when the nba has the script in.

It was prob nvr going to be....we just needed more. Yet again it didn't happen. He's human though. It's ok.

– The debate remains whether Adebayo is a strong enough No. 2 alongside Butler, at least at the level of playoff competition.

– A debate that could resume with a Butler return in Saturday’s Game 3 at Kaseya Center.

– In this one, Adebayo showed versatility.

– Which matters.

– Spoelstra needed Adebayo to be his best self.

– With this arguably who he is.

– But more was needed.

– It could have been his moment

– It wasn’t.
