Miami blows a 22 pt lead, allows Utah to score over 70 pts in the second half, like 49 in the fourth quarter and loses in OT. Bosh tried to guard Millsapp, but no one on Miami could as he goes off for 46pts. And this is at home! Takes some of the bitterness out of losing a 6 pt fourth qtr lead in Dallas last night...

They actually had Haslem on Milsap for much of the second half. They used Bosh to guard Kyle Fesenko in OT and much of the 4th Quarter.

But yeah Milsap torched them all, of course he did hit 3 threes! (of which he's only taken 20 and made 2 in his entire career before tonight)

Great game to watch. Miami had a 44-13 lead in fta's at one point.

I don't think it will make the job easier for the Celtics - but I still think the Celts will win Thursday

I thought Bosh had a decent game, Milsap had his best game he will ever have in this league, it was an utter anomaly that will never, ever happen again.

That said, MIA look solid on defense, they just need to fix their offense and they look quite scary in my opinon.. now? not so much

Yeah, it's exciting, but Millsap is never gonna make 3 triples in a game again, let alone one quarter.

I'll also add I'm confused at who's getting redemption, Paul Milsap?

I can't see how it is sweet redemption for a Celtics fan but it was nice to see them lose at home and the way they lost showed some vulnerabilites in their defense,especially in their fourth quarter defense.I do rank this one at the top of my list of best game of the season ive watched so far that didn't include our Celtics.

Yep.

Bosh did play well - but man you gotta slow people down, Bosh. I'm not seeing where he's doing that.

In fairness to him, though - Milsap was just HOT from the outside.

Now - we gotta go down to MIA and take care of business ourselves. You know they'll be pumped up down there.

Time to go 2-0 on the Heat!!
