Very crafty Brad. We can't blow a big lead in the last quarter if we don't have it.

That's some 4d chess right there.

37-17 by the Heat in the 3rd quarter with the Celtics up 13 points at the half.

One team really wants to go to the Finals: the Heat

So... it won’t be hard to have a better 4th quarter. Bright side.

Why is everyone scoring so early in the play when they can just hold to the buzzer?

What a gutless performance that quarter. No balls, no force, no poise.

He has faith in his players. Doesn't call the plays any more.

Yeah. This team just doesn't have it. I'm convinced. I'll eat crow gladly if they come back to win but I'm very confident in my stance.

Welp. We gave up a 20pt swing in 12 minutes. Making up a 7pt deficit is small potatoes.

How do we continue to blow 3rd quarters over and over and over again and never fix the issue. This is definitely a coaching issue

I'm not even mad.

We're not even close to their level right now.

UGH , What they brought a Miami fan to run the shot clock? Ball hits nothing and gets reset, and then quick on the change of procession.

Far from over. Lots of time left. But they gotta change their mindset quick. Too many dumb decisions in that 3rd Q.

Now we want to waste challenges in the third quarter? There will be at least ten bad calls to challenge in the fourth.
