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

[SerialChiller]

Locked on Knicks said Heat paid the refs hahahahaha

[3ammy3uck3ts]

All I hope is Miami trades for RJ Barrett. Spoelstra seems to be a master at figuring out how to make him look like an all-star, quasi-All-NBA player

Other than the blatant rigging this pissed me off most. Every time this dude plays us he looks like peak Paul George

[Shewasfly]

It was sickening watching those calls go against us live. Barely wanted to go to dinner afterward.

The worst part of this loss is not just the refs screwing us, but the confidence we gave their 'stars'. We didn't shut down or at least make it uncomfortable for anybody. I think they will mentally write off their first game performance as a fluke and that confidence is not a good thing for us.

I expect Jimmy to shut down Randle, at least for the time he's on him, but what about RJ Barrett? Even with Tyler out and that scapegoat no longer viable, he still looks like a slow in the face all star against us. And Brunson is so shifty and crafty, we don't really have anyone that matches up well with him from a size and IQ perspective except Jimmy. But he can't guard everybody and also be what we need him to be on offense.

Once again, I think we will have to depend on our shooters shooting to win out.

personally i have no worries the knicks were behind 8 points before the 3 point debacle and were struggling to keep up with a depleted heat team. the refs won that game for them. they needed that extra oomph in order to beat the heat 5/6 points.

a good team takes the opportunity to dominate a hurting team like the heat,the failed to do so because they suck. we know that, their fanbase deep down also knows that. so the only way i could see them beating mia in a series is if the heat gets more depleted or they get more "help" from the refs

series just tied and we have 2 games at home. i like our chances here

"The turning point was me running into what's his name"

I can't shake the feeling that this comment is going to come back to bite him and us on the ass. Watch "what's his name" be the death of us.

Not to mention that it doesn't speak well that you're not even familiar with the guys you're playing against.

[Wiltside]

I suppose it’s too much to ask for the league to give an explanation on the “shot clock violation” and the 4pt play where the foul occurred prior to the shot.

Anyway, it’s done. We move. Want a Jimmy 40 piece and a W.

He knew his name he’s just being a dick, if we’re going to lose the series because of a backup center then so be it. We didn’t deserve to be there anyways if that’s the case

Or the Lowry slam that led to a 3, or the bam and1 layup that wasn’t called, or the countless over the back plays.

Heat in 6. Last game confirmed to me this team has no chance in beating us when Jimmy comes back.

[Tony15]

So long as Jimmy is relatively healthy, and our shooters shoot well enough we're in great shape.

Just heard Perkins on PTI saying Knicks have the edge in this series because of Josh Hart......**** injuries man, this series would be a ****ing sweep.

Perkins is a dumbass and the media dick rides whoever is playing us. Had we ever decided to go all in and get an all star 3 level scorer at the guard position Jimmy would have a LeBron like stranglehold on the East these last 4 year and they wouldn’t be able to say anything. We’re going to get one this summer I think.

There's something not right about Just Fart. Dude's weird. Also sick of his flopping & has been getting away w/ dirty plays.

The very last thing to worry about in this world is anything Kendrick Perkins ever says about anything.

officiating was a head scratcher but ultimately we couldnt execute in the 4th starting with that Love lineup. Duncan and Highsmith the moment is too big for them they kept fumbline the ball u could see they were nervous. Duncan flails too much when he is in good position causing him to pick up fouls. Heat really need to work on him learning to control his body and be more decisive and in control on defense. Proud of this team so far though.

Agreed on Highsmith, and a lot of others for being sloppy with the ball, but Duncan was one of our better ball handlers yesterday! I always hate it when he tries to drive, but yesterday he seemed good at it. Made some nice passes, including the one that led to a Highsmith layup.

Just wanted him shooting more during his minutes on the floor.

This one cld not have only hurt 'what ever his name is' but Lowry too. It's reckless. I hope we're aware of his antics the way we were w/ Portis resulting in UD having words receiving a tech. Dude needs to be rectified.

I have this odd feeling that the league doesn’t give a crap about anything we have to say in regards of its refs.
When there is an agenda to be obtained, all the complaining in the World falls in deaf ears. The refereeing calls were at a blatant level. In your face has never been more true, and yet you hear nothing but crickets. Don’t expect anything fair in this series, when the commissioner’s favorite team is playing what has to be his most hated rival team, at such point refs are playing with house money.

The turning point was running into Scott Foster, as I pointed out Tuesday morning, before it spread throughout Heat and Knicks Twitter (nearly verbatim).
