I remember an SI article about the Spurs after Ray Allen hit the devastating shot in game 6. Pop still pulled them together and played a valiant game 7, were right in it. I think Spo will have the Heat ready like that tonight, they won't fold. Should be a great game


I'll be honest, I have no idea how Miami even had a chance to win last game. They were so bad, they were basically being outplayed the whole night, the refs basically kept them in the game and even gave them the chance to win it. I can't see the refs helping them tonight and if they play the same way Its a blowout.

Bam averaged 18 the first 3 games, and 12 ppg games 4-6. He has to be better. But he doesn't have enough of an offensive bag

Wow, imagine if it all comes down to Tatum's ankle in the first minute of the game?

Honestly strictly on talent there's no way Miami should even have made it this far. Their luck has run out. Unless Lowry comes in and channels like game 6 warriors Lowry, they look ****.

Agreed, there’s not enough offence especially with Herro out.

Miami will need all hands on deck tonight. Really rooting for them.

Heat came to play, hanging in with tough defense. Boston looks shaky from 3

Lowry with the classic booty block move. Fvv would've taken that and gotten swatted into the fifth row.
