  1. This guy has it wrong …Game 6 in Boston Jimmy Butler scored 47 points and Bam scored 16 ?not 30 ….This guy isn’t geeat

  2. 19:45 How would it be a fact that the bucks would be up 3-1 if Giannas played all 4 games? In games he’s played this series the bucks are 0-2 and in the game he got hurt the bucks were down 12 when Giannas went out? Guess the real facts don’t matter 🤷🏽

  3. Did you say the Bucks would be up 3-1 with Giannis lmao? I’m glad you can see alternate timelines. I wish I could do that too 😩. As if the Bucks weren’t getting smoked in the 1st quarter of game 1 with Giannis, and game 3 the Heat couldn’t miss from 3, and Giannis played like 40 minutes and still lost in game 4. What are you on about?

  4. Jimmy is a beast, I've always seen him as a guy who just isn't phased by the regular season or individual statistics.

    But when the season is on the line, he just focuses in and take it seriously.

  5. I am having problem understanding this analysis. It makes no sense and sounds homerish. When Giannis went out in Game 1, the Heat were up 12 and then lost at the end of the 2nd. The Heat won. Game 2 the Heat got stomped. Congrats, the Heat got what was needed, a split on the road. Then what did the Heat do? They come home, blowout the Bucks in game 3 and lose a player who was pretty much a DNP/CD in Dipo. Now come game 4 and the Heat looked like the Heat of the whole season. They keep it close. People tend to forget that the Heat had the most amount of games that were +/- 3 points. People also tend to forget that the Heat had the best record for close games. But back to game 4, the Bucks get a career level game out of Lopez with 36 points. No one talks about him going off and then discounting it. Yet, they talk about Butler and discount it.

    The Heat, because of their pace of play are always ready for the playoffs. They play at one of the slowest, most methodical paces. We all know that the playoffs the game slows down.

    One other thing, if the Bucks were as good as professed, why is that the Heat has the number 1 offense in almost all categories in the playoffs. The Bucks had the 4th best ranked defense in the league during the season. The Heat were 9th.

    The Heat are pretty much the same team that last year was in game 7 of the conference finals. The Heat were in the Finals in the bubble. To call this team a bunch of scrubs . . . nah. Now look at the Bucks. That team picked up 3 of the Heat's discards in Goran, Myers and Jae. Think the Heat have improved since then? This season the Heat was one of the teams with the highest number of injuries to their team. They just happened to get healthy just before the playoffs.

  6. 15:06 everybody talking about how Lowry ain’t doing nothing but without the defense he was putting in the 4th they would’ve not made that run

  7. If I'm Milwaukee I look at it this way.. It took a Michael Jordan level performance to beat you last night on the road. Play the way you played for 85% of the game take it one game at a time and you can win this series.

  8. “Forwards and Centers and Steph Curry.”

    What??? Michael Jeffery Jordan was a 2. So was Kobe.

  9. I trust Spo to put together a game plan to win 1 outta 3 games.. Miami is pretty good at closing out series when they're up 2 games

  10. Bucks and warriors are in battles because league wants lebron to have the easiest path to a chip. Refs are deciding series here by the way they officiate.🤡

  11. Warriors are lucky with health they say but they also lost klay and kd in the finals and lost klay for several seasons

  12. Beer bealy bad had to take a fucking time out when the Heat had the run to cut the rythm

  13. Lesson here for anyone that gambles… I knew the moment he said he had a 3 team ML parlay with all the favorites that one was gonna lose. The book WOULD NEVER give you something that easy!

  14. This is my biggest gripe with Giannis. With all that talk about him being the best defender in the league, he almost never guards the opposing team's best player. Remember 2020 Finals? AD doesn't have Giannis' lateral quickness but he essentially shut down Butler in 2 games. And then a 35 yr old, in yr 17 LeBron had him contained when he was guarding him.

    I'm rooting for bro, I hope Giannis guards him and can make the comeback

  15. Clearly the Bucks are the better team and they could still win this series. Miami severely lacks talent.
    But you saying that without Giannis getting injured, it would FOR SURE be 3-1 Bucks makes no sense. Miami was leading when Giannis went out game 1 and won on the game he played and he looked good. You also don't even mention the Herro injury, he isn't a superstar, but for a team that lacks offense it's a huge blow.

  16. Game 6 was the 47-point Jimmy Game. Jimmy was also hobbled in Games 4 & 5 which is why the Heat lost those 2 games…

  17. Laughing at all the analysts saying the bucks winning everything blah blah. Its like the weather forecast just guessing shit

  18. No they're not if Giannis played all 4 games and Bucks are up 3-1. More like 2-2 maybe but Game 1 is really dominated by Miami. Stop it Jason

  19. I don’t get the logic of saying Bucks are better while they’re 3-1 down. Better or not, right now clearly the Heat have been better.

  20. Not so long ago.. when the Warriors had that bad year.. the talk in Philly was the ransom that could've been had for Ben Simmons. Keeping the player named Jimmy Butler back then, could've gotten the Sixers into the Finals multiple times. Butler is a real man. We just couldn't let go of a guy with Simmons ability.. despite the fact that he wouldn't shoot. Simmons killed everybody's dreams.. because he never really had any of his own. What a mistake.

  21. Happy wife happy life! Thanks for these vids Jason! Big game tomorrow for my dubs! Time to shock everyone and steal one on the road!

  22. What does fan duel have a to do with anything? No basketball analysis should be based or referenced to this
