Got to start making buckets drop.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Lowry has caught fire from range.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Bullshit non-foul call on Kemba and time out for Toronto.

 

[eth-dog]

They played a great 2OT, but * me it shouldn't have even gotten there. Refs were wearing Raptors for the entire second half

 

[BackOnOurPerch]

If game 3 didn't piss me off enough today was a killer blow.
Had to go for a long walk today to try to get this out of my system.
Why do I take this so seriously?

That was shades of 2002 Game 6 Lakers v Sacramento in terms of rigged officiating to force a game 7.

Soooo frustrating but nothing we can do now. Win or go home on Saturday.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

3’s not falling early. Playing great defence though.

 

[Borough Blood]

Brown, stop shooting 3’s. Please.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Brown, stop shooting 3’s. Please.

I’m normally saying for Smart to not shoot 3’s but he’s the only one making them so far. Lowry has Kemba covered.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

We’re getting good shots, just poor shooting.

 

[Borough Blood]

Theis looks off.

 

[Bostonian]

Brad Stevens doesn't even coach anymore.

Just lets players run iso ball crap too much.

Used to call time outs all the time to set up plays now that's far less likely to happen.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Smart and Tatum were huge this game. Brown and Kemba couldn’t get going. Williams stood up when Theis was in foul trouble.

Can see us losing the first game vs Miami. This series has been so physical and gruelling.

 

[Borough Blood]

How good were the tactical miss FT’s by Grant at the end?
Agreed that Miami will be red hot favourites for game 1 but at least there’s a decent break in between. Gordon back for game 2?

How long a break?

Need Hayward back asap.

 

[eth-dog]

Williams' defensive play on VanVleet? I think it was down the stretch was ******* perfect.

 

[Borough Blood]

Need Hayward back asap.

Game 1 Tuesday.

 

[eth-dog]

That's a week between games for Miami, they could come in a bit rusty. At least I hope it does.

 

[Memphis]

Marcus Smart played like he was robbed of DPOY.

Unbelievable defensive plays he made.

The extra rest days for Miami will be good for Jimmy.

I am tipping Miami in 5

I'm tipping us in 6. I think we're better and have shown that in the regular season.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

I think it will be a 7 game series but will be 50/50 whoever advances.

 

[Memphis]

The extra rest days for Miami will be good for Jimmy.

We should beat them in 6 or 7 the players are getting a good 3 day rest.

Even playing those extra games we did does help.

 

[srobbo]

4 day break....we’ll be cherry ripe to go. Hopefully get our noses in front in series & buy Hayward a little more time if he needs it.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Fantastic 3rd quarter by the boys. Really put the screws on the Heat's offense and made some really good and tough shots.

Making most of our Free Throws also makes a huge difference.

Let's hope they can keep up that intensity in the 4th.
