  1. Losing out on a lottery pick just to play 4 more games 😍😍😍😱😱😱💦💦💦 good thing the Alzfather would rather sign a UDFA from the D7 school Cock N Balls University 😫😫

  2. Balls_of_Adamanthium

    Lavine disasterclass on both ends.

  3. MediocreTake

    what does vucevic even give you that drummond couldn’t have?

  4. Palifaith

    Tough to beat a team on the road when you are missing your best defensive weapon.

  5. wouldntknowever

    Shoutout to Vucevic, Heat 4th quarter MVP

  6. PootieTooGood

    I’m just sad the Bulls don’t have Lonzo available. Their roster has so much potential… but down the stretch tonight, they just needed someone to QB the offense

  7. MySilverBurrito

    JIMMY G BUCKETS. THE G STANDS FOR GETS.

    Miami fans working overtime to scrub Max and Lowry slanders this week lol. FO salivating by the idea of running it back already lmao.

    Sidenote, Radmila Lolly with the 12/10 dress again.

  8. Brad-Stevens

    The NBA is 5-for-5 in Play-In Games so far

    Awesome games

  9. I can’t believe SVG actually said Miami has all the momentum going into a series against the Bucks with a straight face.

  10. wsbull_35

    This L solely on Derozan. Miami shot > 85% from the line. His kid would have halved that shit easy. Should have let her skip school.

    Edit: did not know about her getting death threats. Tf is wrong with people.

  11. Talal916

    DeMar really fumbled his playoff chances by not bringing Diar to the game lmao

  12. that_BU_ginger

    I just got out of Turkish prison after 23 years. Is Max Strus the greatest player in NBA history?

  13. Celtic_Legend

    Why did they bench drummond for the entire 4th. He was hot af

  14. Only_Wears_GymShorts

    I’m convinced Erik Spoelstra could manage to bring a gaggle of 3 year olds to the NBA playoffs at this point

  15. Remember where you were when Max Strus turned into Prime Ray Allen, prime Klay Thompson and Prime Reggie Miller

  16. bobbi_01

    Never did I think I’d say that taking out Drummond was maybe a game losing decision.

  17. Bulls were up 85-80 at one point late in the fourth.

  18. resident_hater

    To show everyone I’m not a sore loser, I’d like to congratulate the Heat on their last win of the season.

  19. Koppite93

    Dope ass game for for a 2000s NBA fan…defense does win championships

  20. Kbdiggity

    #biggest offensive possession of the season, Coby White is nailing big 3s, and Billy Donovan benches him for Pat Bev who has missed all his shots.

    Please please please let a different team sign him to an offer sheet the Bulls are too cheap to match.

  21. sebastianqu

    On one hand, we won and are in the playoffs.

    On the other hand, I’ve got to keep watching this team.

  22. Vermillion_Crab

    Where were you when Max Strus became a play-in legend?

  23. Heat wants the smoke

    Fuck it let’s go Milwaukee

  24. Bail____

    Billy Donovan is seriously a fucking terrible coach holy shit.

    I get Bulls fans having a better pick is probably better for the franchise but Donovan sold playing Vooch the whole 4th when he did nothing as opposed to playing Drummond.

    He sold so fucking badly my god man.

  25. dogfish1145

    Zach Lavine just wasted a Bam/Herro disasterclass…

  26. Gamesgtd

    Remember when Coby White was spacing the floor???? Pepperidge Farms remember. Wtf Donovan

  27. IMKudaimi123

    Idk how you bring back Billy Donovan

    Vuc didn’t do much this game, he put him in with 9 minutes in the fourth instead of keeping Drummond in who was playing great

    Coby white hit two huge threes in the fourth and you take him out when nobody else can score? Cmon

    Here comes a looooooooooong offseason

  28. beatrailblazer

    All y’all Jimmy haters seething lmao

  29. ccam0821

    Bulls traded Butler in 2017, went through way more than a rebuild cycle, and a 33 year old Jimmy in 2023 was still the best player tonight to knock out the Bulls
