Give Stevens credit.

He pushed all the right buttons tonight, including his use of Kanter and Theis.

Props to Kanter.  I thought his production in the first half pulled us out of the rut we were in.

Game ball to Kanter IMO.  Obviously Tatum and Brown carried the load and Theis was awesome in the 2nd half, but Kanter got us going when we were really struggling.  His scoring was a huge, huge lift in the first half. 

Who'd have thought that our bigs would be the difference this game.

Facts. Kanter kept hope alive when I was about ready to throw myself over the edge.

Who would have thought Enes Kanter would be the spark the team needed to get going. Pleased to get the win but this raises more questions than answers.

Miami is a seriously limited team.

Agree they have hit their ceiling. We need to dispatch them or the Lakers will instead.

For as frustrating as Smart was in parts of the first half, he played a really good all-around overall game on both ends ending with 12 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 steals, and only 1 turnover. His playmaking in the third was really instrumental in our run.

With the end of the season staring them in the face, they responded. On to Game 6.

I have no idea what that first quarter was.  No more of that in any of the upcoming games.  Shouldn't need reminders to push the ball and stay aggressive.

Better to start slow and finish BIG than start hot and finish with a wimper. That is why I called this game at halftime because I just felt the Cs would return the come from behind favor.

Our best is really, really good. Championship level in fact. It's so great to watch when we are hitting our straps.

To see C's fight like this in the 2H was such a relief.
Probably for the first time this postseason Heat looked like they are overwhelmed by the opponent. And it's priceless going forward.
