NBA: 2023 NBA Finals: Heat vs Nuggets

[Kawhitstorm]

Get a ing rebound

Jokic is tired, they need Gordon to clean the boards (Uncle Jeff ain’t it)

[Tyronn Lue]

Easier to replace them than make the type of personnel changes teams want to.

If teams want to, what's to stop them?

Based on what, media narrative? Adding Butler mattered and lucking into Adebayo in the draft did. They got the former for the same reason O'Neal preferred to be traded to them and James and Bosh signed with them: location.

Kerr lucked into getting Curry and Thompson as they were entering their prime and has admitted that he had Green penciled in as a 10-15 mpg combo forward, before Lee got injured and the rest is history. Not to mention Durant for a while.

Without Spo they probably don't get to the playoffs.

Heat fans leaving early

a familiar sight


it still hurts

[GAustex]

This is fun

[lefty]

Haslem is there for some reasons

[FkLA]

Chris Bosh is in the hall of fame? WTF?

[Tyronn Lue]

What's wrong with Haslem's hair?

[timtonymanu]

Championship response by Denver. I definitely see Herro coming back for Game 4.

Nice job Miami for not showing up in that 2nd half. They’ll still win it in 6 but Jesus Christ they gotta stop making difficult for themselves.

Oh there you are.

I thought Miami fought hard, they just didn't hit the shots.

[Spurs Homer]

Miami sucks lol

[timtonymanu]

Crazy how easy it is for Jokic to get triple doubles and they don't feel statpaddy like how Westbrick would get them.

[MultiTroll]

Courtside girl with the glittery boots and cape a ho?

[TIMMYtoZO]

I was just annoyed at Miami’s effort. If these bas s just play their game, Denver will implode. Then again, this is a typical 6 game series. Miami gives 2 away and wins 4 outright. I’m sorry but I’m not impressed by Denver at all. Miami is simply beating themselves. It’s annoying to watch but it’ll be worth it when they win this series.

Can only imagine a 26 yr old Duncan in this era. He'd be a monster. Duncan has every bit of the BBall IQ of Jokic so that would be an interesting watch.

If Miami gets more physical with that overrated turd, he’ll get flustered and be contained.

Joker has gone for 30/20/10 three times in the playoffs now...and the first in NBA history to do it in the finals. Only Wilt and Kareem have done it in the playoffs and only once each.

Bananas.

Ol Bam getting tired of that big Sweaty shoulder and elbow in his face

Cool story.

Miami’s had a cute little run but they don’t have Nikola Jokic.

[TD 21]

At the national media blowing their load pretending the Heat and their precious "culture" eking out one law of averages game (against a Nuggets team that had won 7 straight at home and 9 straight overall) counted for 3.

I specifically said "the type". Sure, anyone can make moves for the sake of them.

Based on what? Say it with me now: agenda driven media narrative.

Tim wasn't a 3pt threat though, so teams could let him roam around out there. Not so much with Jokic. Tim was a much better defender.

You're saying contractual obligations prevent teams from moving problem players, so they instead move coaches to give the appearance to season ticket holders that they are serious about winning? I don't see any of that as media narrative. I see it as business.

Only current young player I wouldn't hate surpassing Timmy all-time tbh (Wemby excluded).
