Feels like Boston is going to run away with this one.

I dont really give a shit about the Heat, but I dislike Boston and root for PJ. In summary, fuck boston. 

Bawstin has some elite flopping and this is a Scott Foster special game 7, we all know what's up.

Heat trying to get back in game by drawing fouls and shooting free throws...

Free throw disparity is a problem for Celtics.  Heat hustling better after rebounds now.

Boston better bring the effort in 2nd half and get to the foul line more...  

[ATXbronco 4060]

Not ready to root for the Celtics unless its' Celts vs Warriors...

but Horford has been pretty awesome this series.

He can't run fast, but he's lightning quick with good reflexes

 

[Pam Cummings 9553]

All flops should be reviewed and technicals issued.

Refs just started calling more fouls against the green guys...  foul trouble for Bas-tin gonna give Heat a chance to win...

[Mitch Cumsteen 18517]

Heat have to feel good only down 6. If they could make their free throws they could be dangerous.

[LTtxfan 48928]

14-22 on free throws for Heat

5-8 on free throws for Celtics

Horford 3 fouls

G.Williams 3 fouls

D.White 3 fouls

Celtics starting miss shots more and turn ball over more late in 2nd quarter.  G.Williams has to stay out of foul trouble or the Heat is tough enough to win this game.

Celtics offense when not getting out on the break was not executing well at all...

Amazing job by Heat to get back in this game.

Who is the non-star player that steps up in the 2nd half to help team win??

[LTtxfan 48928]

Smart immediately draws foul shooting ball on a drive to the basket -- Celtics need more 2nd half foul shots...

[LTtxfan 48928]

Tatum draws foul on a drive...  Boston coaches must have said drive more in 2nd half...  

[Baboontyme 2807]

Why is Mark Jones calling the game instead of Breen?

[Baboontyme 2807]

Answered my own question via Google. Covid.

[LTtxfan 48928]

Fast breaks, and drawing fouls going to basket -- more free throws for Boston.

Heat lose 3pts on review of 3pt shot and player stepped out of bounds.  

[CurlyDumps 4439]

Wow, WTF?! His heel didn't come down. They just stole 3 pts from the Heat!

[LTtxfan 48928]

Marcus Smart with 9pts in first 6min of the 3rd quarter...  

[ATXbronco 4060]

Not sure why 'dipo isn't a larger part of this offense.
Probably because he just hasn't been around much.

true, but the no call on his 3 steps negates the terrible replay review call.  If the Heat lose by 1-2 points, which is very possible, that bad replay review will go down in history, but IMO shouldn't .   The 'gather' step is getting out of hand. 

[LTtxfan 48928]

7pt run for Miami off of terrible offensive foul call on Jalen Brown, poor shot by Smart early in shot clock leads to fast break 3pt shot Miami, and missed alley-oop shot by Tatum.  

Celtics just not smart sometimes -- Miami is the tougher team right now.  

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

i remember seeing Smart at OK State vs. the Horns and thought.. who the f is this guy, why can't we cover him, does he also play football.  I think he played vs. Durant IIRC.  The talent is legit. 

[LTtxfan 48928]

Better movement on offensive end, getting to foul line, and driving the basketball better.  Jalen Brown starting wake up on offensive end again...

Seesaw game...  8pt Celtic lead.

He was there after KD. 12-13,13-14. Will always remember him getting into it with tech fan

 

[LTtxfan 48928]

Horford needs to stop shooting 3's.

This game becoming a war -- Celtics making poor shot choices again.  Heat are so tough.

4th quarter gonna probably be amazing.

82-75 Celtics lead after 3qtrs

[LTtxfan 48928]

12-16 free throws    Celtics

16-24 free throws     Heat

Celtics did get to the free throw line more times in the 3rd quarter.

Horford, Tatum, Smart, J.Brown,  G.Williams, D.White all have 3 fouls for Celtics

 

 

 

[CurlyDumps 4439]

Williams getting stripped inside giving me slight Texas last season PTSD

3pt game, early 4th quarter and GAME 7

[LTtxfan 48928]

Heat has the experience... Boston probably more talented.

Anyone's game now -- who wants it ??

 

82-79  Celtics under 11 minutes

[CurlyDumps 4439]

Refs trying to take this shit over. 

[LTtxfan 48928]

Game slowing down for injuries and Heat challenge on foul call is perfect set up for Jimmy Butler.  He needs the rest for the final 9min.  Not sure Jimmy has come out of the game yet...  

It's Jimmy Butler's time to take over... 

7pt game    86-79 Celtics 

9mins left

[Baboontyme 2807]

Warming up the hot take machine. With 9 minutes left and Boston up 7 I am 1000% convinced that Heat win by double digits. 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

Mark jackson on the successful Miami challenge: the problem is with it being successful is you lose your challenge…with 9 minutes to go in the game.

Ok nvm

[ATXbronco 4060]

They [Miami] really need to unleash the 'dipo

[Pam Cummings 9553]

Clutch play from Tatum, finally.

[LTtxfan 48928]

Tatum gets no foul call on driving shot attempt.  Butler with offensive foul and no call scores -- wiped out Horford.

REFS sometimes just suck !!!!

[LTtxfan 48928]

96-85   4mins left, Heat somehow hanging in there, but has to start scoring... 

[CurlyDumps 4439]

Not so fast my friend!

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

Smart isn’t shooting smart shots.

[CurlyDumps 4439]

That stolen 3 points is officially a thing.

[LTtxfan 48928]

Celtics stopped scoring to run off time

HaHaHaHa 😂😂😂😂😂

Heat now back in the game 

98-93  Celtics lead

Heat has the ball.  52 seconds left

[AeroHorn 735]

bad decision by Butler. Drive to basket when the other team is defending a lead.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8799]

Yeesh butler..I like the aggressiveness but you had horford 1 on 1 back peddling. That was a pretty Low percentage shot

[LTtxfan 48928]

11-0 run for the Heat

98-96

Butler misses a 3pt shot for the lead 🙄

Smart at foul line makes 2 free throws

100-96  Celtics barely lead.

11.4 seconds left

[LTtxfan 48928]

BOSTON WINS 😂

100-96

[CurlyDumps 4439]

Well that got fun for a bit there. Boston-GS should be a good time.

You gonna take that shot, you gotta make it. Butler fucked up there.

[LTtxfan 48928]

Marcus Smart with a strong 2nd half, and Tatum finally making a couple big 3pt shots helped Celtics squeak by the Heat...  

[Dutchrudder 11103]

Celtics vs Warriors for the finals. Golden State has homecourt, 53 vs 51 regular season wins.  The Celtics defense seems pretty good, but they need to step it up against the Warriors if they want to compete. I'll be rooting for Boston, because fuck the Warriors.

A walk up three when he has a defender on his heels. Gonna haunt him for a long time.
