Always a great day when Marcus Smart is sent home.
Really hope Miami can give the Lakers a run in the finals.

AD hasn't faced a defender like Bam so far. I doubt he continues to be as efficient as he has been so far. Going to put a hell of a lot more pressure on LBJ and guys 3-12.
Bam hasn't played someone like AD yet.

Ya dude, its not like he played the back to back MVP or anthing.
AD is more versatile offensively than Giannis.

The heat bench is much better and so is spo.
The media is going jerk off to the lakers and how they are supposed to win this easily. Its not going to be easy
who in the media said this was going to be east, or are you making that up?
Will its been all of 5 minutes. Talking head shows will be exploding tomorrow.

Congratulations to the Heat. You have one hell of a team there. Our guys just looked completely gassed and flummoxed at the end there. I'll be rooting for Miami to win it all.

They might not be able to put Bam on AD. It might have to be Crowder

Issue is going to be Dwight on the offensive glass. I’ve barely thought about it tbh yet but at first thought that issue worries me.
If crowder is on LeBron and Bam on AD, that leaves Butler or Duncan on Dwight. Not worried about Dwight post ups (please waste possessions trying that) but the glass will be a disaster. A lot of teams have this issue against Lakers. They are huge.

Stevens is a good coach but something's missing. He doesn't have the fire you need from your coach. No emotion at all.

Congrats to heat. Well deserved eastern conference champs. But and there is always a but. Considering their road record this season. The Heat have benefited the most of all the playoffs teams playing on neutral court. In traditional nba playoffs. It would be darn next to impossible to advance to nba finals with no home court. Last team being New York Knicks in 1999 who coincidentally beat the number one seeded Heat in shorter season.

Basketball is played on two ends. If Dwight is out there he also has to guard someone. If it's Bam he'll get murdered in the pick n roll and any switches get him melted on the perimeter. I don't think Dwight will play too much tbh.

Congrats, Miami Heat. This was, unexpected and you're the only one that can stop the Lakers fans noise here and social media now. We are rooting for you.
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Stevens not challenging Smart blocking foul late makes me question him.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.
