Heat (47-33) at Celtics (47-34) Game #82 4/13/16

[SCeltic34]

Look at all those legends in attendance.  And the C's have the gall to play like this.

[Hank Finkel]

well, guess we should have been tanking...

We are tanking for the 6th seed.

DOWN TO 20!!

Honest question: are Russell, McHale, and Walton better than our bigs currently?

[slamtheking]

yup, C's last bucket came from Sully on the inside (AB just got an uncontested dunk) so what does the team do?  jack up outside jumpers

[Chief]

Come on boys!

[MBunge]

What the heck is going on?

No energy, no sense of urgency whatsoever. Miami will have a killer's edge in the Playoffs if we don't even try and get this one close.

I don't get it. Its like this team completely tanked away the last 4 games and home court advantage and playoff position.

We saw this earlier this season.  It's like these guys get a big head and stop competing the way the can and must.  I think this is the unavoidable downside of Stevens coaching a young team.  He just can't crack the whip when they need it.  It's worked out well for the most part but when the players just aren't interested, it can get pretty ugly.

That's what I'm talking about!

[jpotter33]

I have a feeling that someone got an ass-chewing in the locker room! 

[tomrod]

see what happens when you play defense...

[CoachBS#1]

Heeere we go!!, common' CELTICS!!!!!

[alldaboston]

Let's go!!!

[slamtheking]

Honest question: are Russell, McHale, and Walton better than our bigs currently?

Honestly, no.  but not by much.  and that's only because Russell needs help walking and Mchale is walking with a noticeable limp

[jpotter33]

It's just ridiculous how we can settle like that. Our game is TOTALLY dependent on aggressiveness, grittiness, and energy, so we HAVE to bring it every night.

this team looks familiar!!!
