The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole

Let's not attack diminutive people.  The guy has been great the entire playoffs. But against Denver he's got some probs with their overall size.  :(

Great? He's been serviceable.

He's hit some big shots and made a significant contribution in their series win vs Boston.

Struss is not exactly lighting it up right now.

Lots of open looks on both ends for the Heat, if they continue to miss open threes and give up uncontested shots, it's gonna be a long...err...short series. Good thing is they are absolutely getting open looks.

2 series in a row. He's trying not to get paid in a contract year, interesting tactic

You can't glean too much from G1 but clearly they need to get the 3 ball going.

Murray apparently didn't get the memo that the mid-range game is dead.

Jokic is so good at that extra little nudge, shoulder, hip, grab, shuffle. He creates so much space.

Denver can get quality looks pretty much at will.  Nikola is not a small human being.

People on the Internet comparing that the Heat only have 2 FTA, but it's not like the Heat are initiating a ton of contact on offense. Weird jump shooting strategy this game is not paying off, even though we are getting a ton of open looks.

Crazy take: Jokic is effen good!

Jokic completely dominated that game.  He should probably get 5 more assists from his screens.

Miami needs to attack the rim more, Jimmy in particular.  But their bigger problem is on the defensive end.

Even with poor defense this game, it was within 10 points in the waning minutes. Gives me hope for the series if shots start falling.

The Nuggets supporting cast are quick and fun to watch operate.

Miami simply has the get the 3 ball going.

I think this is a must win gane for Miami.  They're not winning 4/5.

Did you think the Bucks would win 4/5 after going down 2-0 in 2021? I admit that I didn't.

Would love to see the Nuggets run the Heat off the court

No but Giannis decided to go medieval.

Good start for da Heat.

This is tangential but I unfortunately caught a few minutes of ESPN's pregame.  Here's my synopsis:

Greenburg was awful.
Wilbon was awful.
Rose was awful.
Smith was awful.

Move Breen/Jackson/Van Gundy to TNT and just let that network do every playoff game.

Abysmal.  I'm trying to recover.  You wonder if they actually think they're entertaining ?  Uh.....they're not. 

MuggsyB

Wow.  Murray can score at all three levels.  And has great bounce on his J.
