Heat @ Celtics Game Thread

[crc21209]

Pretty big game for both teams, I figured I'd start up a game thread for it....

[crc21209]

Miami needs this game and the 2 seed 1000000000000X more than Boston does, but Miami sure isnt playing like it right now....

[Ghazi]

go Cs

[crc21209]

Miami slowly creeping back in it now

[crc21209]

:lol Garnett for 3....

[Kyle Orton]

KG, BULLYING niggas!

[DPG21920]

No call on the carry and then he hits a 3 :lol

[Giuseppe]

Doris Burke is so ugly it's almost attractive.

[daspurs]

lol how are the celtics only up 5 ?

[crc21209]

Doris Burke is so ugly it's almost attractive.

WTF :lol

[Giuseppe]

Hell, I'd watch somebody hit it.

[Fpoonsie]

Doris Burke is so ugly it's almost attractive.

:lol

She's like the pug of sideline reporters...

[Giuseppe]

:lol

She's like the pug of sideline reporters...

And that is with a ton of pancake makeup.

[Bill_Brasky]

Hell, I'd watch somebody hit it.

Hopefully someone releases a Doris Burke sex tape soon......

[Kyle Orton]

:lol MiamiHeat's love affair with Joel Anthony. Erick Dampier managed to find a team where he doesn't have the worst hands on the roster.

[Kyle Orton]

And that is with a ton of pancake makeup.
Today it seemed like she forgot her makeup, she's showing off that sexy ass pizza chin on national TV.

[crc21209]

:lol Bibby sucks....

[crc21209]

Boston should be up a hell of a lot more than just 1 point....

[Zelophehad]

:lol MiamiHeat's love affair with Joel Anthony. Erick Dampier managed to find a team where he doesn't have the worst hands on the roster.

He is by far the worst rotation player on a playoff team, probably the worst in the entire NBA.

[crc21209]

Krstic just doesnt look right in a Celtics jersey....

[Zelophehad]

Anthony has to be dedicated, he has no talent.

[daspurs]

CHALMERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bitchin out kg

[crc21209]

:lol Chalmers trying to pull the AI stepping over Lue move....

[Kyle Orton]

I don't see either one of these teams beasting LA in a 7 game series :depressed

[daspurs]

lol can jermaine even jump anymore

[jag]

It's sad that Boston now depends on Jermaine Oneal to get them another LOB.

[Giuseppe]

I don't see either one of these teams beasting LA in a 7 game series :depressed

I like the cut of your jib.

[jag]

Someones's about to go off in a wheelchair












Hey-O!

[daspurs]

Yea !!!

[crc21209]

Hell yeah I love NBA fights! :lol

[crc21209]

:lol At Jermaine O'Neal's old broke down ass trying to send a message.....

[jag]

That wasn't even a hard foul. What a vagina

[LakerHater]

The Queen hate contact?!

[HarlemHeat37]

That should have been a flagrant 2 IMO, no play on the ball whatsoever + an elbow..just an old man with no use left in the NBA, trying to use physical play instead of actual basketball ability..

[DPG21920]

It was dirty. He made no play on the ball.

[crc21209]

It was dirty. He made no play on the ball.

This ^^^

[jag]

Wasn't even an elbow. It was a shoulder. Shit's weak...

You see harder contact on the soccer field.

[crc21209]

I can't wait to watch these 2 go at it in the Playoffs, they fucking hate each other...:lol

[LakerHater]

C'mon, if thats a flagrant 2 whats it gonna be like in the playoffs!?

[Zelophehad]

Blowing this way out of proportion.

[DPG21920]

It was only weak because Lebron is a beast. If you hit someone else like that, they fly. It's like Shaq and Howard. Just because they don't move when you hard foul them, doesn't mean it's not a hard foul.

Anyways, the contact is not the issue. It's the intent with no play on the ball.

[DPG21920]

F the Celtics.

[LakerHater]

All the momentum was with James & he bulldozed O'Neal who wound up behind the basket support!

[jag]

Bosh deserves a flagrant two for that. It was very rude of him to go after the ball so aggressively.

[crc21209]

All the momentum was with James & he bulldozed O'Neal who wound up behind the basket support!

O' Neal stepped up right in front of him, he was moving. And it's not LeBron's fault than Jermaine is a weak ass old man now and wound up behind the basket supports...:lol

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol IIRC, Luva was the only poster(if not the only, then one of the few) that thought the Jermaine signing was a great move..

[LakerHater]

O' Neal stepped up right in front of him, he was moving. And it's not LeBron's fault than Jermaine is a weak ass old man now and wound up behind the basket supports...:lol
Yup, O'Neal got the worse of it but a flagrant 2 for a bump... C'MON!

I think the crowd & players made it out to be more than it was!

[DPG21920]

Can't wait for the playoffs.

[Muser]

:lol IIRC, Luva was the only poster(if not the only, then one of the few) that thought the Jermaine signing was a great move..

He also thinks Bynum is a bum and that L.A don't need him.

[jag]

:lol wow I hate Miami

[crc21209]

:lol Jump ball....

[LakerHater]

Holy crap!!!!!

[DPG21920]

:lol wow I hate Miami

That much is obvious :lol You are raging in here. So emotional :lol

[Kyle Orton]

If Horry's shoulder shiver he delivered to Nash was a flagrant two then that O'Neal foul was, the only difference between the two was Lebron getting fouled compared to Nash. One thing I hate about refs at every level is how much the strongest guy on the court is allowed to get hacked because he can take a hit and not go flying.

[HarlemHeat37]

+1 on DPG, can't wait for the playoffs..

I love the intensity + scuffles in these types of games, some of these teams in potential 1st/2nd round matchups seem to already dislike each other(Miami-Boston, LA-Dallas, OKC-Denver)..

[DPG21920]

Exactly.

[jag]

:lol easy bro. Just calm down

[daspurs]

lol just got a call from my cousin sayin he go kicked out of the Triple a for fighting a celtic fan when the whole scuffle was going on . :lmao

[Zelophehad]

wtf is the triple?

[daspurs]

wtf is the triple?

american airlines arena

[DPG21920]

wtf is the triple?


Triple A.

[LakerHater]

wtf is the triple?
Triple A= American Airlines Arena

[hobbler]

I was kicked out of a recent games versus the _allas Mavs for taking care of business. Tell your friend I know how it feels...

Get this trash troll out of here. Even if Cobbler is a massive piece of ...., this is not cool!

[Giuseppe]

If Horry's shoulder shiver he delivered to Nash

Damn, DUNCAN, you were close there, daddy.

No cigar though. The Spurs took ya down to Chinatown.

[Kyle Orton]

Your right about that. The Spurs put on their charlie suits and left us dead in the ground in Ho Chi Mihm City.



Just like that.

[Giuseppe]

I was so happy at the time. Now that yer kaput, and I hate these humps, I'm a little conflicted.

[crc21209]

Miami running away with it now....

[Daddy_Of_All_Trolls]

My take on the O'Neal foul. I don't think many players could hurt LeBron, but a play like that could injure another player, easily. It wasn't a play on the ball. The NBA needs to step in and fine or suspend Jermaine on this one to help keep the coming matchup in ECSF between these two teams clean as possible. I can't believe the announcers were suggesting sending Juwan Howard after a Celtics player in retaliation in the second half, or that they wouldn't even need to tell him; he would just do it on his own. I know Boston is counting on the O'Neal's to deliver 6 hard fouls each to stop penetration, but that kind of foul just isn't fair.

Earlier this season I picked Boston over Miami in the playoffs. I changed my mind soon after the Perkins trade. Miami will beat the Celtics with or without homecourt advantage. Like the Lakers, Wade and LeBron do not want to and will not lose to these Celtics again.

[jag]

Chris bosh looks tough out there. Damn this Celtics team is soft now.

[Muser]

What a block by Wade

[daspurs]

lmao J-HO number 2 !

[resistanze]

How much did Riley pay Danny Ainge for that trade?

[Kyle Orton]

It's odd that Boston's O looks to have suffered a lot more than their D with the loss of Perkins, I guess it's because losing Perkins means the big 4 has to expend a whole lot more energy to sustain their level of D.

[HarlemHeat37]

It's crazy how irrelevant Rondo has been during Boston's decline in play, tbh..

I haven't watched many of their games lately..have teams adjusted to him more? is he just playing soft and without confidence?..

[jag]

When Ray Allen goes cold Rondo looks a lot less like Stockton.

[Muser]

Boston look terrible. It's not like Miami are playing amazing D either their offence just looks horrible.

[HarlemHeat37]

It's odd that Boston's O looks to have suffered a lot more than their D with the loss of Perkins, I guess it's because losing Perkins means the big 4 has to expend a whole lot more energy to sustain their level of D.

The Perkins trade and their slide was a coincidence IMO..his loss has been a factor(interior D + rebounding + screens + toughness), but everybody is overplaying it way too much IMO..they were fine without him for the 1st half of the year..

They were naturally going to get worse as the season progressed, due to age and conserving themselves, but Rondo's decline has more to do with it than anything IMO..

Rondo's FG% went from:

November: 53.7%
December: 58%
January: 50%
February: 48.3%
March: 41%
April 40%

His APG went from:

November: 13.5
December: 13
January: 11.1
February: 10.5
March: 8.9

He has been playing like moist lips for a while now..

[Daddy_Of_All_Trolls]

Did I just hear a "Boston Sucks!" chant? LOL.

[crc21209]

Boston made the dumbest decision they possibly could have made by trading Perkins. Krstic doesnt scare anybody. The ONE advantage Boston had over Miami was traded away...their size. Now I'm positive Miami can take Boston in a series. Before I wasnt so sure....

[HarlemHeat37]

BTW, if Rondo's decline has anything to do with his "friend" getting traded, which is certainly possible, that would be pretty pathetic..

[Muser]

lol Boston

[DPG21920]

Viscious beatdown. Jag is so angry :lol

[daspurs]

rondo is overrated

[jmanu20]

The C's are tanking to get the Knicks in Round 1, I think. Not that they wouldn't beat Philly, but Philly actually plays D, and they'd tire out some of those old Celtic legs, haha.

[jag]

rondo is overrated

He spends a lot of time padding stats, working his assist totals. It's sometimes kind of pathetic to watch.


I dont know why da point guard has been so emotional since that blowout loss to Orlando.

[DPG21920]

:lol nice try, Jag.

[daspurs]

He looks like a mouse

[Booharv]

embarrassing...

[jag]

I have a feeling DOK is about to go off on Rondo.

[crc21209]

Here come the Celtics....

[crc21209]

Bibby with the dagger! :lol

[Muser]

Boston showing signs of life.

[daspurs]

lol heat letting them get a couple points in

[DPG21920]

Lol rondo scard

[daspurs]

Boston look terrible. It's not like Miami are playing amazing D either their offence just looks horrible.

:lmao:lmao your a jackass

[Giuseppe]

Now I need the Hawks to tap that ass tomorrow night, we win out, Chicago wins out, Suns win out, shark go in the water, you go in the water.

[daspurs]

Only if the shoes fit

[crc21209]

Troy Murphy went to the C's and got his ass planted on the bench...:lol

[jag]

KG looks like he's on the verge of tears over there.

[LakerHater]

Troy Murphy went to the C's and got his ass planted on the bench...:lol
Wish they'd plant Bonner on the Spurs bench!

[TampaDude]

Wow...Boston got their shit pushed in by the Heat today.

[hitmanyr2k]

I don't think the Celtics are tanking for that reason because Philly and NY are neck and neck at the moment. Those teams could flip flop for 6th and 7th seed at any time. I want to see the Knicks and Heat in the first round though. Time to renew that rivalry. The way the Celtics are looking right now the Sixers could probably throw a scare into them as well.
