With all the talk about our victory, I just noticed Ray grabbed 7 rebounds.  Wow!  That's how you know how engaged and determined he was.

Just wanted to show my appreciation Ray.

Ray's steal and reverse layup on a 1 man drive was absolutely HUGE!!!

That stopped the bleeding at the Heat were on a run and that started our own run.

Tremendous play!

That steal and reverse layup was great, and getting 7 rebounds from your 2 guard is always fantastic. In fact, I've noticed that Ray's rebounding numbers have been generally higher than normal in this series.

The big thing is that he's hitting his shots again.  Also, he played decent defense on Wade.  His ankles must be feeling better.

You beat me to this!  He has had I think 5 rebounds every game this series, even when he wasn't hitting shots and his defense wasn't top notch he was contributing.  Ray comes off as the smooth relaxed shooter, quiet guy but he deserves an ubuntu trophy for playing through the injury, loosing his starting job and staying with team concept and doing whatever needed to be done.

looked it up, our shooting guard (injured) is averaging 4.3 rebounds for all the playoffs and 4.8 against the heat  this is huge, paul usually averages those numbers

Whats bigger and refreshing is him going 8-8 from the free throw line

That makes me feel much better

The free throws were great! As for the boards, good job for sure. But guards are gonna get a lot of rebounds when both sides are playing small ball.

Ray is a pro.
