    This is the reason why Jimmy Buckets will always be light years better than Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan would be Al-Farouq Aminu level without Pippen’s help and Phil Jackson’s coaching.

    All other arguments are considered dumb and large volume cap 🧢

    It is what it is. End of the freaking story! 🤴🐐🔥

    Gotta get something in Denver is right. Heat have taken 4 of 6 of the first two games on the road through 3 rounds. Gotta make that at least 5 of 8.

    You can see it all in Jaylen and Jayson's faces. Before MJ got to the Finals to dominate the League with the Bulls, he had some very tough losses in the playoffs. They got to fight through this and get through it together. They're young and ambitious. It's only a matter of time until they start dominating in the playoffs to get to the Finals more consistently if they have the right attitude and mentality.

    As someone who’s played a lot of basketball in New York City, FYI, Division I, high school, the Cage, and at Rucker park. I’ve seen a lot of basketball in my life. With that said, I’ve seen how back in the old days the bad boys of Detroit will play physical and brutal. However, has anyone ever notice how Miami started hurting people playing dirty, nasty and getting away with fouls with Gianni falling down on his back, Knicks center getting pocked in the and in game seven Miami player moving over and sticking out his leg, so Tatum falls on it and twisting his ankle. Plus a whole others I guess that’s all coincidence. As Miami coach Erik Spoelstra says, “his players are crafty.” I would hate to see a team as demonic as Miami playing so dirty, and getting away with it. I guess karma will come to them someday. Long live basketball and long live the Celtics and this is coming from a New Yorker.

    “Go get you one” we already know what we need to know about jimmy but this shows how great of a dude Marcus smart is. I got so much more respect for him now

    I’m a nuggets fan and I feel bad for jimmy I want him to get one but unfortunately they’re playing us and I’d rather us get ours

    Denver 1 week break
    Heat 2 days break.

    Both of them deserves a ring♥️ but if the heat won this it will be much sweeter

    Everybody is so shocked this is the second time it's happened in NBA history because I remember when it happened with the next I forgot what year that 8 seed made it to the finals they can definitely make history and if they can definitely make history because let's keep it real on each round they didn't have any easy teams

    NBA is rigged. They didn’t want the Heat to sweep 🧹 the Celtics. Ifs rigged. It’s rigged. I love Jimmy, but the Nuggets are a far superior team. Nuff said

    This is true. Only casuals throw around the word 8 seed with this Heat team. Everyone who knows ball knew there was an * on that seeding

  28. TeamRedWolf

    Martin to Butler is like Pippen was to Jordan..did majority of the work but no real credit Martin should have got MVP

    They loss to the Hawks on purpose. They wanted to play bulls and bucks. Respect to this team. I hope the nba takes notice. Next man up!
