This Finals is all but booked for LA.

Only way Fakers lose is an injury to either AD or Lefreak.

How on earth does Herro and Duncan R lool like the second coming of Curry and Klay in our series and then play like shheeesh in the Finals.

Heck I actually think we would have done better against them if GH is his normal self.
Its kinda frustrating because our guys seems to be satisfied just by reaching the conference finals.

S**t.  Why couldn't the Heat play like this against us?  They look like trash.  Giving up layups, open threes, offensive rebounds, they're stopping literally nothing.  Butler is the only Heat player who looks like he belongs on this court.

Because we have Daniel Theis and the Lakers have AD, LeBron, and Dwight? All those easy points Dragic, Herro, Bam, and Butler got won’t be happening against LA. Heats only chance is if they shoot lights out from deep for 4 games. Or they need Olynyk or someone to lure LA’s bigs out of the paint.

Sounds like you guys are saying WE NEED BIGS!!!?

What we needed was a healthy Hayward from the start of game 1; that 0-2 hole was too much to climb out of, especially with a hobbled Hayward.

It really is unbelievable how this is playing out. I mean, none of us should be surprised - MIA was playing way out of their league against us and MIL. The Lakers probably can't believe they got DEN instead of LAC, and then were able to avoid MIL or a healthy BOS team in the Finals.

Yep. Couldn't agree more.

Because they are getting body checked by some tough players, and the refs are not letting them beat up the Lakers. They look too hard at LeBron and it is a foul. lol ...They were up by 13 and then the refs went to work.

Giannis was hurt. Miami got lucky he was hurt, which messed up their team lol. Would we have defeated Milwaukee though after getting through the Raptors in 7 games lol
Miami were beating the Bucks with Giannis and without. They never got their act together in the bubble.

If Hayward never went down we're in the Finals right now

Stevens has no intensity. Didn't he get Butler to the National Championship game like 2 years in a row and nothing to show for it? When DA first hired him I thought it was creative but until he gets over the hump to a Finals win soon then it's time to move on.

It was a game of inches against Miami, a few bounces and a few made or missed shots and The Celtics were in the finals.

I can see why they exploded in the locker room after game 2. They knew they should have been up 2-0 at that point but it all came together in a perfect way for Miami.

Herro and Robinson are a combined 3-15 in this one.
Just like clockwork.

Shot their load versus the Celtics and now throwing up all over their shoes.

They made so many crazy circus shots and got crazy bounces. The Celtics just lost by so little really. THey made none of that against the Lakers tonight. THey  just crashed back to earth with a loud thunk.

What? Heat missed their next 7 shots and Lakers bullied them inside and hit their 3s. Still hoping the Lakers lose but come on now, refs didn’t do anything. Heat are too small for LA. They just got hot in the first 6 minutes.

If this were the Celtics, they'd throw Kanter/Timelord/Theis at Davis/Howard.
Tatum on LeBron.
Smart/Brown/Hayward/Kemba on KCP/Green/Kuzma/Rondo.

What could have been...

You know, one way to look at this is that if the Lakers have to win it, the best way for that to happen is if their opponent gets hurt almost immediately and the series is a complete walkover. 

Between that and the bubble this won't get looked at like a normal title at all.


This soulless band of mercenaries assembled by Klutch deserves no better.

They will celebrate a weak tea victory in a bubble devoid of fans.  LeBron adds to his resume but still not enough to put him ahead of Jordan.
