Heat (1-1) at Celtics (1-1) ECF Game #3 5/21/22

[slamtheking]

cripes, Theis at -19 in just 8 minutes.  knew it was bad with him on the floor but that's just horrid

[gouki88]

Our turnovers, once again, are a major problem. 11-3, 16-1 difference in points off turnover.

Yep, that is the difference in the game right now. Plus our D was mia.

The points off turnover differential is the exact margin. No coincidence there

[Banner18now!]

Time lord would have changed this game

Lol forget that soft dude. Can never count on him. PJ Tucker who is 37 is playing with a sore knee.

There are different levels of soreness. Also a younger player has more to lose.

They said it was a pain tolerance issue stop with the excuses. He is soft and not dependable.

[Phantom255x]

Tatum is going to have to take over in the 2nd half if we want to win this

[BringToughnessBack]

11 TOs to 3 for MIA.

Yep, so bad but correctable. Surge the 3rd and watch the heat turn to ice!

🔥 to 🧊

Think PP deserves more run in the second half. He helped our offence get going with three assists and a three of his own.

All that whining, complaining, and quitting to only be down by 15 😂

[RockinRyA]

Was telling people at mu house here, "just get it down to 15."

This is our game. Let's come out energized and TAKE THIS THING

I was willing to settle for anything under 20

11 TOs to 3 for MIA.

Yeah take care of the ball and keep getting to the rim.

He better not start the second half.

Has Tatum ever, just once in his life, driven into the defense and then pulled up short for a 10-foot jumper instead of ALWAYS leaning in and A) running over the defender or B) getting stripped for a turnover or C) getting so out of control and off balance that he throws up some ridiculous, contorted layup attempt or some ridiculous, contorted pass attempt and always D) ends up waving his arms over his head in anger at the officials while the other team takes the ball the other way in transition, leaving his teammates short-handed.

He had a great midrange game when he came in but in this age, it's layups or threes...

Absolutely. Him and grant can get us back in this with their shooting.

[nickagneta]

Would be a 5 point game if they didn't miss 5 layups in the 1st quarter.

Yeah, and only one of them is coming off of major surgery on their knee. Apples and oranges. Comparing a bumped knee to a surgically repaired knee that was in all likelihood brought back a little too early.
