I am 100% saying that the Heat are shooting themselves in the foot......no question....how do you not fucking match-up on the defensive end after a made bucket on the other!? How do you allow rondo to get his own fucking rebound off a missed lay-up........he didn't even have to fight for it....he just took the lay-up....followed through his run....ran back and snatched the offensive board....he didn't even have to put a fucking body on anyone.....It doesn't even look like Miami gives a fuck...
bballbuy, you're right on the ball when it comes to seeing the Miami lapses in defense. ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy kept criticizing the Miami transition defence for being sooo slow to go back to defend after scoring a basket. I was literally yelling at my TV "Hustle! Hustle!" at the Heat to match up on defense.
In addition, Boston showed better effort in getting to the loose balls, getting more rebounds that Miami. -remembered seeing the Heat getting less defensive rebounds that the the Celtics.
Game 6 will tell me how much heart, mental toughness the Heat, have inside them. When Miami faces elimination, how do they respond?
The Truth was clutch in the end with the 3 pointer.
Some of the ref's calls, especially in the fourth quarter, were very questionable. Technical foul on Chalmers??? Pietrus was flopping like somebody shot him with a gun. That call was a joke.
I wanna see a game 7! Bring the series home Miami!!

it literally feels like we're watching Wade getting older in front of our eyes... he's just.... malfunctioning is the best way to put it
and I'm 99% positive we will never see LeBron act and play with extreme intensity, the type of intensity that makes you a juggernaut on the court.
If only LBJ had half the heart that Garnett had just in his post game interview, lol
I disagree with wade part. He's playin pretty. He's shot what...close to 50%. IF they get eliminated. They can pretty much call this experiment a flop. Or they can just say they didn't have bosh.
But I respectfully disagree and dont think wade is malfunctioning

The flop was a bad call but who doesn't flop anymore.. I enjoy it if James chalmers bosh calls the opposition for flopping like they don't do it themselves. So stupid

He's playing as if this is regular season....This isn't regular season....You can't be non-existant for 3 quarters and then try to show up for the 4th....

He shootin an ok percentage but also a few pretty plays here and there isn't enough to sway me off criticizing his game. I don't think he's scored over 25 points in this whole series, he's not making his presence felt on the court in this series, except that second half of game 2 where he exploded.
But that's how he should be playing ALL the time, LeBron is droppin 30 a game, but he's doing it casually.
It stresses me out watching these great players trying to orchestrate the schemes of such a small insignificant man that is Spoelstra.... most of the time on the offensive end it literally feels like LeBron and Wade have ball and chain attached to foot with Spoelstra's name on it, fucking LITERALLY !
I've screamed at the top of my lungs a few times this series...
And I ain't even a current Heat fan, because I grew up watching the Heat of Alonzo, Hardaway and Thunder Dan, that's my Heat team right there.... I'm just a fan of good basketball and players playing to their full potential nothing less, I swear I grow a grey hair every time I see LeBron on a pull up jumper against someone he could blow past with one leg...
and I honestly think next season Pat Riley is coming back to coach, they are not firing Spoelstra, he's Riley's whippin boy who's put in too much time with the organization to get fired, plus he has a few years on a new contract anyway

There was one particular play, which you probably remember, on which Stiemsma ended up having to defend LeBron and he decided to throw up a long-range jumper.....needless to say, I fucking lost it....
^lol lebron.... I think he always wants to do a "as dagger" type play so he takes a lot of jumpshots. Fkin guy is huge abd strong that I bet he scores or gets fouled everytime he drives the hoop.
As for wade. We gta give some credit to the celts D though. I know Hes a superstar butttt. They've played him well imo. Game 6 SHOULD be great. HUGE Pressure on lebron and the heat
Didn't see the first half tho but how'd bosh play?I'm surprise he didn't play at the end to add another scorer that can hit a jumpshot .
I wanna see KG vs Duncan go at it one last time like back when KG was still in the West.
now you're talking.
and +1 on intensity and heart. look at the expressions of pierce & especially KG in the slow-mo replay after the fouls and/or getting the bucket and the whistle down the stretch...hell look at the face of KG when he was taking those clutch free throws....
i'm surprised wade misses so many free throws. glad i ain't cheering for them
yea I'm pretty sure I walked right out of the living room on the Stiemsma pull up J
oooh the KG vs Duncan one last showdown sounds very fckin exciting... they're both playing almost like they're 6 or 7 years younger...
on Dan Patrick show the other week DP was talking about them two and mentioned a story that Tim Duncan told him personally how at an all star break few years ago, Timmy was in an elevator with KG alone and KG is just standing there talking smack in Timmy's ear and eventually smack talking turns into KG intensely yelling in Timmy's face cussing him out in all different manners, all the while Tim is just standing there poker faced staring right back at Kevin.
Timmy told Dan Patrick he's "hated" Garnett ever since that day, and a funny quote from a Slam article I read reads
"Asked if perhaps all those years battling Garnett have softened his feelings for the man, led to a Magic-Larry type of kinship, Duncan leans back on the couch in his hotel room and grins. There is a pause. A longer pause. Finally he says, ‘Define kinship’”

^ they are like the extreme opposites of each other. Tim Duncan is probably the most poker face and calm guy out there. While KG is probably the most intense and verbal guy out there lol.
-a break from the serious business of the NBA conference finals.
Kyrie Irving disguised as "Uncle Drew" and schooling some youngbloods in a pickup game. -the only Pepsi commercial that I've watched from beginning to end.
"don't reach youngblood!" "These guys don't practice the fundamentals."

It may seem like peanuts to you, but you know what else is the size of a peanut? your anus. and when somebody wants to fuck u up your anus, I shall fight.
Unlike some who shall present and loudly proclaim "Have at it master!"
ESPN.com is reporting that the Raptors are targeting Rudy Gay of the Grizzlies or Philadelphia's Andre Iguodala in a trade.
The Raptors are said to be interested in dealing their No. 8 pick, along with Jose Calderon (expiring contract) and big man Ed Davis, in exchange for a stud small forward. Davis makes sense for the Sixers, who could use a good, young big man to eventually replace aging Elton Brand.

GG; Really happy for OKC and particularly Durant; down to earth, well spoken, and unselfish guy who has become a man amongst boys in just his 5th year in the league.....He's proven a lot of doubters wrong in long in such a short period of time...
