Emwitus Cloving and Bulls-Gaf are poppin bottles right now
Live by the 3, die by the 3. Ray Allen has gone 4-5 playoff games without making a single 3 before. People get into shooting slumps at the wrong time.
Last season everyone on the Heat caught fire from 3 in the Finals. If people go into a shooting slump (which is possible), things could get bad. All a team needs is Battier AND Allen to simultaneously shoot poorly for a series and Miami's 3 point threat will drop to middle of the pack average.

when the heat get eliminated, heat-age will still be cocky confident they'll win the championship
Its not sarcasm at all, it is one of my all time favorite series. Put together by two amazing teams not made for TV ratings.

Obviously. But its only been 1 game.. It wasn't only Battier and Ray, Rio missed a couple, Bosh missed 4, and Miller missed 3 as well.

Rosé would have to be human to feel shots.
Lol
One called a charge
One called nothing
One called a blocking foul
...
So only two made calls right?
Webber....wut?!

I dont think he took the game off, Jimmy Butler was playing great D.
Or the teams that got swept in the first round.

I choose to believe he was talking about Rosé

Burn! lmao... Also he might have been talking in general. I think he is talking about the Heat but yeah it could be aimed at rose who also seems to lack in the heart department

Hats of to Bulls for hitting shots down the stretch.
That Dwyane 3 pointer might have been the worst shot he ever took. I really don't understand it.
Didn't panic when we were down against the Pacers, Boston or OKC in the series, sure as hell not going to now.
I'll just be in a grumpy mood till Wednesday besides that, oh well.

I think he was relying on lebron getting the board,you can see him make eye contact with lebron and then he took the shot.
Precisely. He's still having some bad nate nights but Thibs is really coaching him good to keep that shit under control.

Noone said the Lakers had heart. Afterall, Kobe was out the whole series and Nash was injured too.

As in, Thibs plays defensive schemes that allow Nate to stay on the floor.

the spurs defense is putrid.

Jarret Jack needs to protect that damn ball.
There's no such thing as playing great D against Lebron. At most you can hope to contain him like every great unstoppable force before him. He was passive as shit in the first half. In the fourth quarter, he was barreling his way to the rim and being assertive against the same defense and was damn near unstoppable for most of the 4th quarter.
Jimmy Butler can make it tough, and can make it so Lebron shoots a low percentage for a quarter here and there, but he's not going to be the reason Lebron plays passively and decides to only shoot up 6 shots, not attack, and not draw fouls.
Nate is controlled chaos on the bulls, entertaining to watch.

Probably, I'm not going to place entirely all blame on Wade though.
Spo playing Chalmers twice as many minutes as Cole was a colassal mistake. Chalmers isn't fast enough to cover Nate and he wasn't hitting his shots when Cole was in rhythm. Hopefully, Spo gives more minutes to Norris in Game 2 - he's a fantastic defender and doesn't let people get out in front of him.
On NBA.com or Youtube when someone put them up.
