    Tatum shot more FT than our entire team just another Heat Celtics game.

  2. Aggravating_Plant_39

    Bam having 2 FT that entire game is a fucking joke.

  3. LemonCanddy

    Proud of the guys. Let’s get Jimmy back and get the next one.

  4. surgeyou123

    Encouraged we can even score 120 with this team lol.

    We will get them back Friday. Save us Y2Jimmy

  5. moons_a_skull

    Missed Jimmy a lot in this one, probably get the W with him.

  6. I’m not even mad. The group played hard in this game. On to the next one. Let’s go heat!!!

  7. Cockycent

    I missed what happen with Bam. The camera wouldn’t pan to him

  8. Gave it our best shot without jimmy, that’s all you can ask for. Proud of our dudes and they have another shot Friday to look forward to with hopefully jimmy 🙏. Good game.

    Aint no way the Prince visits boston and they lose

  10. MediocreDVaMain

    The odds were already stacked against us but man these refs really have it for the Heat whenever they play the Celtics

    I don’t really like moral victories but I take this game as one since most of the team did their best without Jimbo

  11. avinash240

    Tatum – 49 points on a +29 +/-. I don’t even know how I feel about watching that.

  12. JustiseRainsFrmAbove

    Refs call ticky tack fouls away from the ball on the C’s so the foul differential looks close

    All our fouls were on their drives tho

  13. Fast-Minimum-8527

    Stop the nonsense. We deserve to loose. But If we play like this against other teams, we win 99% of the games.

  14. jbenson255

    Guys on the roster gotta have some pride on the defensive end man

  15. DTFpanda

    Where’s the heat fan who said the Celtics are overrated because we went on a run early in the second? Lol

    The zone doesn’t work against teams who can shoot. Strus plays selfish basketball and can’t defend. Highsmith needs more minutes. Jovic needs to play and UD shouldn’t be getting minutes anymore unless it’s garbage time.

  16. Most frustrating part of the game was that on NBAtv they had the Celtics homers and after every good Celtic play the camera had to do a close up on Prince William and Kate.

  17. Alex4453

    Great game against the best team. Can’t be mad F’ing Haslem was out there and the game was close.

  18. Cnutty_04

    I know I’m stating the obvious, but that is a very good team we just played

  19. Harman3112

    If bam gets ejected, he’s pissed. I hope he brings that next game

  20. Mugiwara_JTres3

    Really gonna be hard to win a game when you gotta play UD, Gabe who’s not even close to his old form, and Duncan who’s become a shell of what he used to be at this point.

  21. TheRatchetTrombone

    Too many fucking blowbys and not getting close enough contests on the 3s

    not to mention dumb turnovers in key moments

  22. JustiseRainsFrmAbove

    This stupid bitch on NBATV crying that Tatum didnt go for 50 when up by 12 with 17 seconds left

  23. Cosmic_Note

    I’m not mad with this. We kept up with the Celtics with an undermanned squad. Proud of these guys

  24. melllow_d

    Super glad we kept this close. Jimmy coming back on Friday. Hope we can grab that W

  25. Glad to see Bam get frustrated with the refs. It was a joke how Horfors could foul him on every drive and no fouls being called while Tatum got fouls going to the basket on his back. It’s just ridiculous.

    Strus kept us alive in the third but he was horrible in the zone in the 4th. Just clueless out there. Gabe was also absolutely ridiculous to begin the 4th. Just playing completely random and stupid.

    Hoping to see Jimmy back Friday, and hopefully Vic in the future. With those 2 in the rotation and no Haslem we have a shot to play better defense and compete with the Celtics .

  26. Ticonderoga2HB

    We win that game if they give us the free throws bam deserves

  27. MargielaMan568

    Not angry with this one. Boston are literally better than us in every single way so the only we would have been able to beat them is if they beat themselves and missed shots.

    Unfortunately they were hitting a lot of shots and Spo didn’t switch up the defensive scheme for 48 minutes straight and kept with the zone.

    It is what it is. Not gonna make excuses about the reffing for the sole reason why we lost

  28. LlamaDebauchery

    On a positive note Haywood Highsmith tho!?!?! Some really nice steals and an efficient 16 points and 8 boards. Hope this means he starts producing on the offensive end as well

  29. bigdogdriver

    I like how the OP posts a positive title even when we lose

    Makes me feel less upset

    Awesome work L3GACY
