The '23 NBA PLAYOFFS

[TIMMYtoZO]

Miami has finally arrived. Woooo!! Adios Boston. See you Thursday, Denver! Wooooo!!!

[Tyronn Lue]

/beautiful game

[baseline bum]

Feels like Miami should be up 15 with how cold Boston is

[TIMMYtoZO]

Nugget fans wanted Miami and they’ll regret that. This Heat team is flying directly to Denver after the win tonight.

[Barfunk]

Yeah, Boston is playing like absolute horseshit...

[TIMMYtoZO]

Feels like Miami should be up 15 with how cold Boston is

That’ll happen this upcoming quarter. Game is over already. Miami is locked in. They don’t lose when they are locked in.

[Tyronn Lue]

Until Tatum gets to work from mid range, this game is going to be sloppy.

[lefty20]

Jfc Celts showing no signs of life

[TIMMYtoZO]

Woooooo!!! 2 more hours and Miami will be in the Finals officially.

[Cry Havoc]

Miami thumping that ass. Boston's players act like they're going to win just because they're at home and have momentum. Ah ah ah, you didn't say the magic word!

[Tyronn Lue]

Jfc Celts showing no signs of life
Like their Finals was game 6.

[Tyronn Lue]

How did Boston have a winning RS record? What a shitty team.

[Degoat]

Al Horford is a black hole out there, every single 3 Miami has hit he stays back

[TIMMYtoZO]

Miami did this with Jimmy resting. This Heat team is special. This is a fucking dynasty and it’s gonna be one for the ages. What a special group of guys this Heat team has.

[lefty]

How did Boston have a winning RS record? What a shitty team.

because it’s the regular season

[baseline bum]

LOL Boston gonna blame Tatum's ankle, convenient excuse

[Tyronn Lue]

Martin is a baller

[MultiTroll]

:lol Celtics with 3 Komes on the floor.

FFS Brown getting his chit blocked was pathetic.

[spurs10]

The only good thing about the Heat taking Tatum out of the game is how much I'll enjoy Denver beating them.

[lefty]

:lol Titum

[Cry Havoc]

Tatum is a massive piece of shit and gets more of a superstar treatment than any other player in the league right now. Can't stand watching that MF. And I came into the series enjoying his game. But dude extends his forearm on over 50% of his drives and the refs never do shit to him.

[baseline bum]

C'mon Jimmy, end these bitches

[lefty]

:lol Celtics with 3 Komes on the floor.

FFS Brown getting his chit blocked was pathetic.

:lol rejected by a white dude

[Tyronn Lue]

The Miami role players are growing on me. I never thought Butler was a big shot, never saw him act like one but narrative being what it is, they try to set him up like that. I wonder what's going on with the handle, why all the Celtics keep losing it.

[lefty20]

What a terrible shot by Tatum. Pop would tear him a new one in the locker room for that.

[TIMMYtoZO]

What a dominant first half by the Heat. Boston is finished. Told you that Miami let this 3-0 comeback happen, but are locked in again. Denver is beyond fucked come Thursday. :lol

[MultiTroll]

Close it to 8, maybe we've got a game then Celtics shit the bed on O and D the final 2 minutes.
Fuzzhead with the super lazy pass that gets picked.

[Tyronn Lue]

I used to like Tatum when he was young but either he or his management can't figure out his role.

I tried to tell you …2023 champs and the start of a Heat dynasty. This games over. Gonna start celebrating with some booze. Wooooo!!!

Too anxious to make plays. Celtics players want to just dominate the Heat but aren't playing with focus.

[Tyronn Lue]

Too anxious to make plays. Celtics players want to just dominate the Heat but aren't playing with focus.
They do seem to be 5 players instead of 1 team, each player trying to save the offensive possession with seemingly no plan after the ball is inbounded. It's like they've never seen a zone.

[Barfunk]

Yeah this game's over...

[TIMMYtoZO]

:lol Boston has given up.

[TIMMYtoZO]

Yeah this season is over Heat 2023 Champs...

[lefty]

Yeah this game's over...


:lol Boston has given up.

wait wait

[TIMMYtoZO]

:lol Stop using Tatum’s pussy ass “injury” as an excuse TNT.

[lefty]

Heat not taking open 3s :lol

[lefty]

thank you struss

[Tyronn Lue]

:lol crowd going crazy when the home team gets it back to 10

[Barfunk]

D-White is a basketball player!

[lefty]

:lmao Adebayo phaggot

[lefty20]

Bum Adebayo single handedly keeping the Celts alive.

[Tyronn Lue]

Heat not taking open 3s :lol
Heat need to be careful against playing to not lose. They seem to be letting up just a bit.

[TIMMYtoZO]

Curious to know how Miami will guard Jokic. Bam can certainly hold his own against him but I’m really dying to know what wrinkles Spoelstra throws in.

[lefty]

Wrong quote, too into game, lol

[TIMMYtoZO]

Miami is going to be a major issue for the Nuggets. I can’t stress this enough. Miami has the perfect roster to eliminate the Nuggets.

[lefty]

TTZ is a Heat hater, dude is just jinxing them on purpose tbh

[Barfunk]

Boston, inching closer..

[lefty]

Miami looking like traffic cones on offense

[FkLA]

White all over the place on defense. Holy shit. What an absolutely amazing role player. :cry

[Tyronn Lue]

I didn't know shitbag Griffin was on the Celtics :lol

[Mark Celibate]

Celtics play such a sh!tty brand of basketball. Either jack up threes or barrel into the lane whining for a call on offense tbh

[lefty]

White all over the place on defense. Holy shit. What an absolutely amazing role player. :cry

« get over yourself « :pop:

DWhite/CMartin showdown tbh

Sup Jerome? You going to Keesha’s tonight?

[TIMMYtoZO]

Miami looking like traffic cones on offense

Yet they are up 10 after 3.

[Barfunk]

That should do it... Martin the hero...

[baseline bum]

ROFL Tatum missing that layup and then Martin busts a three on the other end

[J.T.]

I predict that as long as the Heat finish the 4th quarter -9 or better, they will win the game.

[TIMMYtoZO]

Denver is gonna have to worry about Martin. Herro will be back too

[baseline bum]

Bust their ass Butler

[TIMMYtoZO]

Wooooooooooooo!!!!!!

[baseline bum]

Goodnight now Celtics bitches

[Mark Celibate]

I predict that as long as the Heat finish the 4th quarter -9 or better, they will win the game.

:wow:wow:wow:wow:wow

wtf JT's ghost risen from the grave imho

[TIMMYtoZO]

Bust their ass Butler

You can’t truly think Miami has no shot against Denver in the finals. The Heat have the roster to beat Denver.

[GAustex]

That big sweaty dude gonna have something to say

[lefty]

Yet they are up 10 after 3.
Because they started moving more

[FrostKing]

Brown has money on the game?

Nuggets will ass fuck this team

[Barfunk]

Denver should win, but will have to play immaculate. Not sure the NBA would prefer Denver be apart of the Club.... Miami attracts all the mumble rap demographic just the way the Lakers do. Definitely will be favored by the media/NBA, and so forth.

[J.T.]

:wow:wow:wow:wow:wow

wtf JT's ghost risen from the grave imho

I got dusted by Thanos in Infinity War tbh

[baseline bum]

ROFL Celtics playing hot potato with no one wanting to shoot down 17

[lefty]

nice flop Smart

[lefty]

Martin calm down

[lefty]

Twin Tower!

[lefty]

Butler wtf

[lefty]

lefty stfu

[TIMMYtoZO]

Nah. Miami in 6.

[baseline bum]

Celtics getting booed by the Boston faggots :lol

[Barfunk]

Derrick White tried his best but the rest of the Celtics stars insisted on playing Harden/2006 Kobe ball. The rest is history.

[Mark Celibate]

Denver should win, but will have to play immaculate. Not sure the NBA would prefer Denver be apart of the Club.... Miami attracts all the mumble rap demographic just the way the Lakers do. Definitely will be favored by the media/NBA, and so forth.

[FrostKing]

Miami shooting out their minds


Celtics don't go consistently "to the well"


Every position is something different

[MultiTroll]

Brown has money on the game?

Nuggets will ass fuck this team
Browns play has struck me as a shady niggra who may be on the take well before this game.
If it's just clueless lackadaisical then ok. But sure looks like a throw a lot of plays.

[lefty20]

Sucks for Boston that they gotta super max Brown, tbh.

[FrostKing]

Nah. Miami in 6.
Jokic in the middle


I'm sick of watching Celtics 5 wide at the 3pt line

[lefty]

Pat Riley’s team is destroying the Celtics in Boston

He must have a big grin lol

[timtonymanu]

All that hype for a 3-0 comeback and Boston is getting destroyed. :lol

[Mark Celibate]

Miami shooting out their minds


Celtics don't go consistently "to the well"


Every position is something different

yeah I usually the save the coach for last in terms of blame, but this one has to be on Mazzula. All game they looked panicky, and they've done nothing but hurriedly jack up 3's (even moreso when the Heat go on a run)...meanwhile Miami looks completely composed

[TIMMYtoZO]

Jokic in the middle


I'm sick of watching Celtics 5 wide at the 3pt line

Jokic is just 1 guy. Butler will cancel him out in addition. I like Miami’s supporting cast better. That’s the X-Factor.

[TIMMYtoZO]

Thank you SVG

Nuggets have actual plays. Won't be this 1 on 1 show.

I'm not rooting against you. #8 seed is amazing.

I see Heat not sustaining this shooting and Nuggets scoring more. They will get your defenders out of the game.

Boston looks like no coaching.

[Cry Havoc]

Sit the fuck down Tatum, you dirty bitch

Fake superstar getting superstar calls.

[lefty20]

Martin for ECF MVP?

[Spurs Homer]

There is a reason why no team has ever come back from 3-0 in the nba…

the team up 3-0 has FOUR chances to close you out.

Denver Nuggets 2023 NBA champs!

Miami did a good job but will probably get swept or lose 4-1.

book it!

[baseline bum]

So Boston isn't giving Brown supermax. Wondering if this is it for this iteration of the Celtics. Gotta think he's forcing a trade without getting supermax.

[lefty20]

Sit the fuck down Tatum, you dirty bitch

Tbf, Jimmy Butler is also a ft merchant. He's perfected the lean & flail technique.

[lefty]

https://twitter.com/johnhollinger/status/1663371437355438080

[Barfunk]

Miami's very fortunate to be Miami/a hip market/ESPN approved. A small market/a market despised be ESPN would never have a prayer of doing this as an 8th seed.

[Cry Havoc]

Tbf, Jimmy Butler is also a ft merchant. He's perfected the lean & flail technique.

Bruh Butler wasn't even on people's top 20 players list this year. The Heat's 3rd highest paid player is the corpse of Kyle Fucking Lowry.

Boston should have swept this team by 17 points per game. Jimmy deserves to take his bows for this.

[FrostKing]

Maybe Nuggets have bad defense but I see this duo Rape

I don’t see it man. Denver has not been tested. They also have 0 finals experience. Miami has been tested and has finals experience.

Yeah Denver is an order of magnitude more complete of a team than anyone Miami has played.

I think the Heat will make it a series though.

Doesn't change the fact that he's got a 60% FT rate since joining the Heat.

:lol First it was Bucks in 5, then Knicks in 6, then Celtics in 6. Keep doubting Miami. They are back in the Finals while the Spurs are gonna draft a bust. Sucks to be you.

[FrostKing]

Jokic & Dirk


Glory Euro days. Enjoy what's gonna be on display

[HankChinaski]

Hell of a run by the Heat so far. I still think Denver wins it all.

[FrostKing]

Heat couldn't beat Lakers in bubble. Ain't touching Jokic.

2nd Place princess. Be glad Ray Allen hit that shot.

[GAustex]

Big Sweaty

[Barfunk]

First 8-seed since Knicks to reach the finals. Still not a true Cinderella run, since it's Miami. A Cinderella run would be something like an 8th seed Spurs going all the way and winning the Finals, which is something that simply wouldn't be allowed.

[TIMMYtoZO]

[TD 21]

As a neutral fan, what a letdown of a game.

Sure, Tatum's injury obviously played a part, but given how confounding/erratic they are anyway, I wouldn't have put this performance past them either way.

Martin played a GOAT level series for a role player.

Nuggets over Heat in 5.

The six-time All-Star edged out the former undrafted free agent by just a single vote, 5-4, to win the 2023 Larry Bird Trophy.

ESPN’s Tim Bontemps and Doris Burke, TNT, Reggie Miller, Yahoo’s Ben Rohrbach, and Sun Sentinel writer Ira Winderman all cast votes for Butler. AP’s Tim Reynolds, NBA.com’s John Schumann, The Athletic’s Joe Vardon, and Boston Globe writer Gary Washburn voted for Martin.

This cost Brown. His inability to handle the ball without costly turnovers really hurt his stock. Though, someone will pay him the max. Don't know if its Boston, but his play in this game was telling.

I didn't actually spend any money on the game, but I still feel entitled to a refund.

I watched heats vs celts on broadcast.com, where they put the antenna signals into your dial-up modem.

[FrostKing]

The Golden State Warriors opened -12 against the Cleveland Cavaliers for Game 1 of the NBA Finals and have since moved to -12.5.
The Los Angeles Lakers are the largest finals favorite we’ve ever tracked, closing -12 against the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 1 of the 2001 NBA Finals.
