Brogdon looks pretty good shooting the ball here....

[Kernewek]

As if watching Game 6 wasn’t nerve wracking enough, here we go with Game 7. C’s are 7.5 point favorites. Let’s go!! Brogdon and Vincent are both listed as questionable. I bet Vincent plays though.

I’m hoping Brogdon doesn’t play. He can’t hit anything, he isn’t a good defender and his absence means White gets max minutes. I guess I have to live with some spot Hauser/Pritchard minutes.

Any word on how long those take to heal?

It really depends if it needs surgery or not - but 4-6 weeks is typical for partial tears. That said, he's probably made the determination that he's unlikely to injure it more by playing, although I'm not sure I like this at the expense of White and Smart's playing time.

meh no worries. if he does poorly in a  small timeframe you simply bench him and go back to more white and G will. i think G will will have a good game tonight.

Yeah fingers crossed.

That clip of Brogdon is encouraging but NBA-calibre players almost always shoot like that in an empty gym, so not sure it says much about his effectiveness.

Regardless and as always - enjoy the game everyone! Hopefully tomorrow we can all talk about the history we've just witnessed.

Hope we can get off to a fast start like Game 5. Garden's gonna be buzzing tonight, hope they feed off the energy from the start and just go from there. If we can build a big lead into the 2nd - 3rd quarters I do think Miami will ultimately fold.

feels like a game 7 of the finals.

we cannot let up. on the verge of doing something unprecedented in NBA history. stay loose but focused and high energy. let miami feel the pressure of the walls closing in around them. miami has all the pressure. They are drowning. lets finish them off with a bang.

Not Tony Brothers!!!

KEYS TO THE V:

1) live in the paint offensively
2) play relentless defense for 48 minutes
3) hit open threes when kicked out or in transition
4) keep ball moving on offense. no slowing it down and pounding the ball. pass the ball to open man
5) get in the bonus asap each time
6) make your free throws

Miami is 0-10 this season with Brothers and foster reffing. Also 0-10 ATS

Heat are 2-13 over the last two seasons and 3-12 ATS with foster officiating.

Celtics are 11-3 ATS in playoffs and 20-9 with Foster officiating.

Miami did win Game 3 with Brothers reffing, though we won a lot of games recently with Foster (including Games 3 + 7 vs. PHI, and Game 4 this series, and Game 7 last year's ECF).
