Second straight "Finals" (bubble tournament) where we come out with this shrimp sized team and get whooped on by a bigger team. I know Bam was hurt in the bubble tournament but we still had to go up against Davis, Dwight, McGee, etc.

Once again, we are undersized.

I don't watch much football, but this reminds me of teams like Oregon (college) that are quick/fast going up against a big team like Alabama (or was it Auburn?) in the championship game and getting beaten up on by those dudes that are just bigger and stronger than them.

Riley and Spo need to get it together this off-season.

I know we got past the Bucks but please, no more midget ball. The goal is to win it all, not just make it there.

I guess being the 2nd biggest team in the NBA isn't enough for some people.

He talks all this **** and makes all these guarantees and he needs to back it up, Simple as that.

You do realize that we're an 8 seed playing against a 1 seed in the Finals, right? Did you really expect us to roll over these guys? And what you call him "talking s*it" just sounds like the leader of our team being confident to my ears. Would you prefer him to get up there and say "We have no chance, we're gonna get our azz kicked"?

I thought Jimmy was fine today he was getting good looks. Just missed a lot of easy ones early. He just hasn’t had the touch on that push shot he likes to take in a while. He did get more efficient in the 2nd half but only ended up taking 8 shots compared to the 16 in the first half. I think he was 6/16 in the first half. Which makes him 5/8 in the 2nd.

I was doing both. Pointing out that we're one of the last two teams standing, and poking fun at fans that are still obsessed with big lineups like it's still the previous century. It's exactly like football fans who can't get off the "you have to be able to run the ball to win" thing.

Win and the Heat are champs; lose and we get Dame (or Millsap).

We'll see if Denver wins the series (still not over yet) while continuing their dominance on the boards and in controlling the paint.

dipo was playing much better before his injury but looking at spo rotations i highly doubt that he would have made it. who knows? that injury did suck though.

btw i havent seem him on the bench, is that injury that bad?

Return to Miami Heat
