I actually like him on Jays games because he just calls it straight, defers to the color man for baseball expertise. And doesn't do any schtick like he does with Raptors. But I'm comparing baseball Matt to Raptors Matt, not to full time baseball guys like Schulman.

I'm sick of his Raptors histrionics. He's too comfortable, tries too hard to be funny. I haven't heard him do NCAA basketball but I'm sure he's better there, more low key. I wish the Raps could get Chuck back, or Schulman. Just call the game
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Vincent IN, Brogdon OUT.

Kinda a big deal.

Horford needs to hit his 3's or the Saltics are screwed.

It is unbelievable that this Heat team have even won 3 games against this Celtics team. Celtics are just so much bigger, more athletic and more skilled. Heat really need to dig deep here to pull out another win.

It's hurting my soul because it should be a sweep. If they lose here I'll be devastated.

Heat had a magical 3 game run where they played perfect offense, Jimmy was amazing, role players shot like stars, and Boston was discombobulated. Now Boston is sharp, can Miami get that magic back?

If Boston wins in 7 does Spo lose any of the best coach in the league lustre he was getting in games 1-3?

Things turn so quickly

He is still a great coach (top 3), why would that change?

Heat have only been favored in one game this series (game 4). In today NBA the variance of the 3 can shift series cause it's still small sample. First 3 games Celtics shot poorly from 3 since then it's better.

I didn't say he'd become a bad coach. Just will take the shine off some of the adulation. Still a great coach of course

Lowry appears to be nearing the end of his career. Don't think the Heat can play him if he can't hit a shot.

Celtics process is so much better than Heat this game. It's close right now because of Heat shooting but they need to clean up their rebounding and get to the line some more. You can't let Boston out shoot you from the line and out rebound u.

This could be a 10+ lead by the half for Boston
