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

[slamtheking]

18-4 TOs.  Boston is killing themselves.

[jpotter33]

Yeah, honestly just bench our starters at this point. IF they don't want to play smart, hard ball to get back into it, then why should we watch them? Just unacceptable that they couldn't even cut into the lead against a stalling, Butler-less Heat team is maddening.

And don't even get me started on Tatum. It's time for a step up. You're not a superstar if you have this many no-shows in the playoffs. He's game one second half level of futility right now.

If they lose they deserve to be clowned.

[celts55]

Pretty obvious. Turnovers are killing them. Brown and Smart just turning it over way too much.

PP getting iced for Grant to just put up 27 minutes of pure trash is woeful coaching.

[kraidstar]

Team is panicking badly

[Chief]

F***ing Ime. This lineup is awful!!!! Get Grant off the Edited for profanity.  Please do not do it again.n court

Or post him up

[liam]

Did no one else see that Jaylen was tripped!!!?

I did.

Thank you!

[hpantazo]

Did no one else see that Jaylen was tripped!!!?

He was, but you aren't going to get many of those calls in the playoffs

[SparzWizard]

No Jimmy Butler and the C's aren't capitalizing. Where did Tatum's head go? He ain't himself tonight. JB and his shaky ballhandles, and Grant's atrocity...man.

[blink]

all that wave of energy when Smart came back in that got us to single digits just burned by bad turnovers, lazy def, and taking bad shots

[LilRip]

Tatum needs to show up. I know Tucker is playing tough but ur a freaking All NBA talent. Don’t let him punk you

[Silas]

That was a sad 3rd quarter.  We've just had an atrocious game overall.

I agree it was a sad 3rd quarter, the Cs tied the Heat for the quarter.

[Phantom255x]

The turnovers have been terrible.

Love Smart for his effort but he also had some boneheaded moments with the ball while going up the court. Also killed some momentum as did Jaylen’s TOs

[gouki88]

Pretty obvious. Turnovers are killing them. Brown and Smart just turning it over way too much.

10 turnovers from those two alone. Miami as a team have 4
