The expectation is Miami’s Jimmy Butler will be out multiple weeks, sources said. Butler remarkably played the final three quarters vs. 76ers last night with what is now feared to be an MCL injury.

    going to be honest . think we would’ve wiped them in 5 even with him healthy. sucks for the excitement of the games but don’t remember the last champion who faced every team at full strength . luck is what matters most in the playoffs.

  2. JPCBeaverBoy

    A lot of championship runs are made by getting lucky and playing injured teams, it better be us this year

  3. boykalbo777

    I dont care if we have an asterisk lets get this ring

  4. TheFirstExecutioner

    We really have no excuse this year. With how injured and talent depleted these teams in the East are, we should be able to beat all of these teams in 5 games max

    Man, wiping out Miami and Philly in the title run woulda been so sweet.

  6. Fatty5lug

    Miami got extremely lucky with this bs excuse built in. This Celtics would 4-0 or 4-1 them.

    I can’t cheer over this, injuries suck and Butler is one of the most entertaining playoff performers in recent memory.

    However, I will be shedding no tears.

  8. Honestly sucks, I wanted Boston to run through the Heat/Sixers and Bucks so they leave no doubt lmao. At least they’ll be well rested for the finals

  9. Basic-Taro-3194

    Is everyone assuming they beat the bulls?

  10. Just annoyed we’re now going to have to hear about how tough he his for playing through it lol. Meanwhile everyone just forgets Tatum got hurt in game 7 last year.

  11. ChipotleGuacamole

    That’s shitty. Probably similar injury as Embiid and Rob.

  12. showmeyourmoves28

    Made it worse unknowingly smh. Damn. This is awful for Miami. I only want our opponents at full strength- injuries at this time are the worst.

  13. drmuffin1080

    Ngl I feel bad for Pels and Heat fans. This shit just sucks. 2 outta the 4 games a star is injured. Ridiculous

  14. Sucks to hear. I enjoy watching him play.

    With that in mind the team has no excuses. Nothing in the playoffs is easy but the door is wide open to at least make the finals.

    Hope butler gets better soon

  15. Gotta love how everyone saying how the 64 win Celtics with one of the most dominant net rating of all time is lucky because the 8th seeded team’s best player, who hasn’t looked good all season, is out for the series.

    The Heat with Jimmy butler were getting waxed 4-0 against the Celtics and the Heat without butler are getting waxed 4-0 against the Celtics. Nothing would’ve changed.

    Damn. Poor Jimmy,worst time to get injured he must be pissed.
