Milwaukee weren’t able to make Miami pay for not having Tyler Herro

Playoff Jimmy is some kind of beast though, the opposite of Tatum at times in terms of intensity

Celtics need to learn from playoff Jimmy instead of repeating mistakes and bad habits from the past over and over again.

Play-in is here to stay for sure now lol

Just think how different things are if Miami doesn’t blow that Hawks game.

We'd be the ones packing first lol

Tyler Herro still out for 4-6 weeks right? He could be back by ECF right?

Per the Heat's beat reporter:

"Herro he has been told that the timetable would mean earliest for a possible return would be the NBA Finals."

Thank goodness.

But its not like a leg injury , he could conceivably come back anytime and give it a go

Eh, it's a broken right shooting hand. That gets a ton of action and high risk for reinjury, let alone how it affects his shooting. Look at how much a small cut is impacting JB. I don't think you'll see him back early. Perhaps if he was more of a defensive guy who could still impact the game without a lot of contact on his shooting hand, but as a primarily offensive player and shooter I just don't see it.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

If tonight doesn't put Tatum on notice nothing will. You aren't going to win anything being passive.

Feel bad for the Kings man, what a raw deal drawing the warriors

I am really wondering if GS is the favorite now out West...
we may have the same last two opponents if we make it that far

heat in ECF, and GS in the finals....what a gauntlet

Warriors vs. Lakers is gonna be a fun second round.

Bucks simply GAVE this game away at the FT line...Missing 17 out of 45 freaking attempts...Giannis Missed 13 on his own...GAVE the game away and the season too.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

I wish Tatum would have a shot profile like Butler's in the clutch. Analytics are all well and good, and so is the occasional backbreaker 3 attempt (Butler took 2 or 3 tonight and missed them all), but by virtue of being the best guy on the floor, you're gonna get a lot of wide open mid range looks. Take those when they're given to you with 6-3 minutes left. Force the issue to the rim or go for the dagger in the last few minutes once you've gotten a rhythm going. Or use your gravity off ball like you were earlier in the season.

Just saying its not like a torn up knee career wise to be out there trying  and Butlers effort can be contagious. I agree and disagree LOL.  He can suit  up and give it a try at least vs not being able to get up and down the court. If I am Miami I at least have him dressed on the bench

When he gets that look in his eyes you can just tell he's going to be passive Jason. Walk the ball up the court, chuck a three or try a drive in traffic and turn the ball over. He just hasn't learned yet.
