No one block the guy who throw the ball in front of him, then time went !!
Good experience for other coaches in the future!!
Jason LT, this is not about Butler vs Tatum, Miami´s best plyer in the last 3 games is Martin. In yhese playoffs the superstars have inconsistency and lapses. It is a team sport.
Heat! Believe in yourself! Fight for it! It doesn’t matter if win or lose but get up and focus on the game like b4
Jimmy! No needs to worry too much! Just go for it as I said win or lose is fine as long as u find yourself….. just go for it we will support u guys💪💪
I can think of a few instances of crazy finishes at the end of regulation, in the regular season. there was one i remember from last season, it was Celtics at Knicks and game was tied with like 2 seconds left(?) after Tatum had tied the game and RJ Barrett banked it in for the win, all draped up and everything. But in the playoffs, an ending like this one? I I can't think of one other than the 4-donk shot from Kawhi against Philadelphia in a game 7
Amateur analysis…The ZONE is extremely effective when the Celtics try to burn the clock. When you don't attack the middle of a ZONE and pass around the perimeter or go late in a shot clock (BURN) ZONE is extremely effective. Spo, goes with a ZONE when Tatum is off the court or when Boston goes BURN at the end of Quarters or game. Its one of a 100 different reasons Spo is a great HC
In my opinion Butler has been exposed in this series as very inconsistent player. He diffidently doesn't appear to be an alpha dog……he has looked lost the last 3 games. I think the Heat was looking past the BC after the first 3 games and now can't find their way………
I guess I'm curious what else Smart/Celtics were supposed to do that was better in terms of getting a shot off with 3 seconds (and still have time for a putback unlike in Game 4 vs Philly)? And clearly Struss was told to help on keeping the ball away from Tatum–think Spoelstra reaffirmed this.
Best coaches always give up an 3-0 lead
Refs were lame af, if you know you know
I think Tatum's inefficiency, not to mention propensity to take too many shots from, mid-range until this season are well-documented. I agree–it's good to take a few, to keep the opponent guessing AND if they are open. But Tatum used to take a LOT of long-range and contested twos.
Bro I’m still in shambles 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The fatigue from Jimmy Butler is the fact that he pretty much is carrying the team by himself! All those other players teams were stacked with more help! That’s the difference
That .04 GW by D Fish in Game 5 vs the Spurs was wild. Lakers had em most of the game…Spurs came back…Lakers took back the lead. TD hits an incredible fadeaway jumper over Shaq which everyone thought won the game to have D Fish hit one of the most iconic shots of all time. Amazing game. But that was 20 years lol
Zzzzzz
Thank goodness the Lakers aren't in this one so he cant spend the entire time praising the Lakers and ignoring everyone else in the series.
Fundamentals are key. When a shot goes up, especially a last second shot, you’re supposed to box out your man. ESPECIALLY the inbounder. Complete blunder defensively. All credit to the Celtics. Since game 3, Boston regained their defensive identity & Tatum is doing a great job controlling the flow/pace of the game. Most heartbreaking loss I’ve seen as a Heat fan.
Smart’s shot was not a bad shot. In fact it was half way down.
Hard to beat that finish. The Curry three from the corner against OKC while being fouled (not called) with no time left was pretty epic. Butler looks a lot less than 100% and a couple of the pro Celtics calls down the stretch were dubious.
HEAT IN 7🔥🔥🔥nice ref job won’t win with it tho cs and the refs and still gonna lose😂🤡🔥🔥🔥
I'm calling it right now. Both of the Eastern Conference teams are flawed. Neither Miami nor Boston has a realistic chance of beating Denver. Miami has great coaching and savvy but lacks talent. Boston has lots of talent but they lack maturity, discipline, and consistency.
6:30 Horford didn't really foul him..
Jimmy as usual realized that he's a poor shooter and launched his body in a perpendicular manner AFTER GETTING AWAY WITH CARRY/DOUBLE DRIBBLE and got rewarded for flopping
Jason, you talked at length about the confrontation between Jimmy Butler and Jason Taytum. Do you think to some degree Jason has started getting the better of that matchup simply because he's younger and age starts to show deep into playoff runs? Playoff Jimmy is 33 while Jason is 25 years old.
This was one of the most bizarre games I've ever seen. I never thought I'd see a game where the Heat shot 46% from 3 and committed only 5 turnover against the Celtics who shot only 20% from 3 and the Celtics won. Hats off to Derick White for that last play, he's been great all series. I do find it interesting though that no ones talking about Tatum only having 6 points in the second half and once again being a turnover machine. His inability to close makes me seriously doubt the assumption that the Celtics will put up a better fight against the Nuggets but I guess time will tell.
Bam and Jimmy 9 shots on 37 attempts, plus jimmy missing 2 free throws at the end, a basketball that rebounds two times on the basket in the last Smart's shot and it ends on White's hands for a tap in at 0,1 seconds…. Bad luck and the two leaders who are playing like G-league rookies…. What a mess..
This is why we watch the sport man. I mean we were literally a 10th of second away from the heat going back to the finals and jimmy redeeming himself!!!!
I've been screaming if Tatum unlocks his mid range, he'll be the best player in the league
Shot variety lol. Like LeBron just barreling down the lane in the early quarters but not the last because he can't shoot free throws constantly. Lr chucking up 3s late in the game because hes tired. Definitely can't post up late because he has no elevation and gets blocked. No skill yet hes supposed to be elite.
Damn bro. I watch all your videos and It's crazy how many views and interaction your getting. Happy for your success.
My Take: Listen Up! Boston has the Defense & Shooters to Take Out Denver Nuggets BUT Miami Has NO Chance to Win the Finals & would get steamrolled! Just the facts.
The Boston cry Babies won Game 6 👎🏾 look their way and it’s a foul on the HEAT. This is the very reason the cry babies lost in the 2022 finals. The league weakens them by constantly tilting the scale in their favor. Jason Tatum is spoiled. Jaylen Brown (whom I love as a person but as a Celtic player he’s the enemy) is entitled “It’s our destiny. We’re just better” whatever 🥷🏾 Marcus Smart, a fraud. DPOY my sexy foot. Grant Williams, bless his heart. He is somewhat authentic and seems to have a good heart. A Lion. Some Heat Fans want him to leave Boston & come play for The HEAT. Derrick White, see me outside 😂. NBA officials putting 3.0 secs on the clock, See me outside 😅 this is exactly what I’m talking about. Stop babying this Boston Team. If they are truly “better” and “more talented” show us with FAIR play. Again, fair & unbiased competition. The League, stop recalling Heat 3s and missing cheap shots on our players. Heat in 7 bi$hes ❤ here we go! Bam 💥 + Kyle getting hot tonight at the same time means we WIN!! I’m a believer. Let’s Go HEAT!!
I almost couldn’t watch this episode. Too painful 😞
Who the hell said Jimmy is every bit as good as lebron they need to be drug tested immediately
Heat Spurs finals with Ray Allen hitting 3 to force game 7?
Condescending tone, treating your audience like idiots as you explain a ghost screen. Meanwhile you said GSW had elite rim protection a copy weeks ago. And you Picked LA over Denver. Lots of arrogance coming from a guy who is consistently wrong.
How is that you don't even mention Heat missing their other shot creator for basically the whole playoffs? Or did you forget about Tyler Herro?
Then mix in missing Oladipo. Granted that he isn't what he once was, but he would definitely give the Heat better minutes than Lowry at this stage of his career.
Boston is the quote better team, definitely more talented. Both those to missing players looms large and you don't even mention it.
No one breaks it down better than you. Just not working out when it comes to Miami. But love ur work !
Jus wait till they completely change there opinion after one game
😂 you picked the Celtics to win😂
