    Anything less would be uncivilized.

    Heat simply need to bring back the open 3 point defense that got them past Boston last year.

    From Zerro to Herro.

    Is Miami going to embarrass Boston again?

    Brooo the Celtics shouldn’t even lose 1 game to a Butler-less Heat. If Celtics lose today, that would be wild.

    Spo has Miami prepared well and they are actually pretty good on the road.

    But it is embarrassing what the Heat do in the regular season though, the Play In are just made for the Heat and the Fakers.

    That is their job to kill one little Giant in the Celtics and then fail against Denver or whoever comes out of the West.

    To at least makes it interesting.

    Knicks would give anyone problems ..... Spike Lee vs Pat Riley.

    Maybe you cannot embarrass an embarrassing team?

    Seriously, I saw the Heat win 2-3 very tough road games this season when Butler was out. But I also saw them lose a couple of pathetic home games WITH Butler.This season at least, he was not a difference-maker for them.

    Therefore, IMO for games 3 & 4 in MIami:

    0% chance the Heat win both
    30% chance they split
    70% chance the Heat lose both

    Miami is just botching Regular Season altogether, just barely making it in the Weaker East.

    Miami plays hard.
    Boston has more Talent

    Hustle beats Talent when Talent doesn't hustle
    It's not that Boston didn't try . . .its that they seem to lack focus and intensity
    This may bring them back
    Tatum is a plus 6
    but Porzingis -32 White -23 Brown -22 . .. what the h*ll were they defending??
    Miami had the 3 ball going . .. don't expect that to continue . . ..
    Boston's won't be as bad either

    Rocket River
    maybe this wakes them up

    I don't know how this series is going to play out, but Jimmy Butler's profile picture has been funny all season.

    These miami teams are probably the biggest feather in the cap to moreyball. Up the variance, get 99th percentile luck, and you can win
