R3G1: Heat @ Celtics, 5/17/23 8:30pm 

Post#1 » by insfo » Wed May 17, 2023 12:43 am

Here we go, Boston again. 3rd time in 4 years, so are we a rivalry? We are not getting beat by size, so we have to out-execute them. I think we can do it, so let's land the first punch and grab homecourt right off the bat!

Let's go HEAT!

At this point last year we didn't have a high functioning unit going in. This time we do for the most part.

If Butler can be effective we will be tough to beat if we stay efficient.

Pretty cute comin' from a guy who's been mostly bounced in round 1 of playoffs including in the bubble where we swept his soft ass Pacers team :lol:

He doesn't know what he's walking himself into. Rather foolish to be over confident w/ the 2 series wins vs inferior teams they shld have handled convincingly.

He's about to face a worthy nemesis. I pray for his soul.

I want to see Elbows to ribs, Knees to thighs, knuckles on their soft spots, make them hurt. Even if they win I want to see them broken.

This is an extremely tough matchup for Miami. Caleb Martin is the X factor here because he is pretty much the only guy who can even try to slow down Tatum or Brown (outside of Butler). Brown has been outstanding against Miami, and it is hard to see him not having a big series. If I were Miami, I'd concentrate my efforts on limiting Brown while trying to force Marcus Smart into shooting more (basically, lazily closing out on him) and forcing Tatum to score 40+ every game.

Miami is going to need to shoot the ball like they did in the Bucks series. 31% from 3 is not going to cut it, especially if Miami chucks up 30-40 a game.
