Kind of a weird game. Kuz and Morris both scored 19, but all of the starters underperformed. Despite that, they actually took the lead at some point in the 4th.

Gonna be hard for the Heat to replicate that game. Don't know if JB will score 40 again, or if AD will have that quiet of a game.

They need Lebron and AD to play to their standards and three of Rondo, Kuzma, Green, Caruso, KCP and Morris to match Morris and Kuz’s production from this game.

If they can just go up 3-1 and then close it out in 5, that walk off will be forgotten.

Bron did the same thing last series. Idk why people care so much about that. If you're pissed after losing a game a lotta times you just wanna get away and move on to the next one.

Also hard to think Kieff and Kuz will be this good, at least on offensive

Kuzma has tools on both ends, but so damn inconsistent

He has lapses on defense sometimes that just make me want to sock him in the face. Why did he jump on that Jimmy corner 3 that led to a drive and foul by Bron. Big momentum changer there I felt like

Poster above had it right, we need 3 of our role guys to have plus games above averages and Lebron and AD to be their usual superstar selves.

Rondo, AC, KCP, DG, Kuzma, Kieff, Dwight

Not sure why Dwight wasn't playing more.

Not sure why JR even played 1 second.

That should be the 9 man rotation, THAT IS IT

Miami finally started to send help and double AD it seems like. That is legit their only option

So apparently Bron told Jimmy theyre in trouble at the end of the 1st quarter lol

That's why Butler repeated the line to him in 4th then if so.

Yeah thats what Jimmy said in his post game conference

Seems like this people are coming out the woodworks on here and other places now with jokes

Time for this team to to step it up, this is why I wish we had stepped on their throats tonight

We don't have the talent that those GSW did so maybe it is just harder to be consistently dominant when you are really top 2 heavy and then a bunch of role guys, but I liked hot they just dominated teams in 2016-2017 and the cavs in the 2018 finals

He just had to back it up and didn't this game :lol:

Not surprised Butler went back at him.

Lakers have always had a dud game in every series so far. I see no reason to think this series will somehow play out different to the rest. They'll bounce back and win in 5.

Read on Twitter

Crazy considering the players he's faced in the finals, that Butler is the one who does that. Pretty remarkable.

Hope so, I don't want any more games past Friday...END IT

The stat that Jimmy outdid Lebron in each stat is impressive, but Jimmy is a kind of bootleg lower end version of Lebron

Jimmy is pretty complete compared to most guys he has played though. Not like Curry will usually have high rebound games and KD or Kawhi won't have tons of assists

J Shuttlesworth · Post #156 » by **J Shuttlesworth** » Mon Oct 5, 2020 4:59 am

Did anyone else get deja vu vibes of Game 3 vs. Denver? So many similarities

-Up 2-0
-Opposing player scoring 40 in insane efficiency
-Shimmy/Snarl from opposing player
-Down most of the game, comeback in the 4th
-LeBron body language looking off

I guess the big difference is Heat having those two major injuries. Hopefully, this series ends the same way the Denver one did. On the bright side, LeBron should be favored for FMVP now

kayess · Post #157 » by **kayess** » Mon Oct 5, 2020 5:56 am

I guess it's too late in his career for us to be worried about him suddenly losing the plot and having a meltdown. This isn't like 2018 G1 where losing game 1 meant pretty much losing the series, so I don't think he's injuring his hands out of frustration or something.

But obviously can't help but get worried lmao

That’s funny. That kind of thing can always come back to haunt you.

McBubbles · Post #159 » by **McBubbles** » Mon Oct 5, 2020 7:00 am

I didn't catch the game this time round, but I predicted LeBron would have a **** tonne of turnovers. I thought to myself what are the odds that he ends the finals with a ridiculous 7:1 turnover ratio? Not very high, he gonna regress to the mean and stink it up.

Joey Wheeler · Post #160 » by **Joey Wheeler** » Mon Oct 5, 2020 7:07 am

Both Lebron and AD had meh games, especially AD with the ridiculous foul trouble. Meanwhile Butler was incredible. Good, Miami didn't deserve to be swept tbh
