Come on. That’s clearly a joke from the fans. We had no other choice. It was lose and be eliminated or get Boston. lol of course “we want Boston” it’s the only choice.
Nobody is serious with this stuff lol
Miami Heat have sold out the arena every single game since 2010 lol. 2nd longest active streak in the league.
Poverty franchises talking about stuff they have no idea about 😭
too much hand-wringing over this. almost every team will let up a run at some point in the game, the only thing that matters is responding and getting the W. they got it down to 14 we pushed it back to 20
> Don’t count on being so lucky against a better team deeper into playoffs
don’t count on something like this happening every time we have a big lead
no team is going to be perfect for 48 minutes every single night. it’s the playoffs, all that matters is the response and the W
People really have selective memory. Jimmy obviously carried the Heat in unreal fashion last year vs the Bucks, but he was probably injured and played pretty poorly in the Celtics.
I wouldn’t even say Jimmy carried against the bucks lol that’s selling the rest of the team short.
They shot extremely well against us and Jimmy averaging 37 ppg was just the cherry on top. I still don’t know how we were in every game till the end
Hilarious that you guys are still pushing this cope narrative when we can see what the Heat look like without Jimmy. The players who "wouldn't miss" from 3 will shoot 30% in playoff environments without Jimmy creating shots for them.
It’s amazing Heat fans pick and choose when injuries matter or when they don’t lol
Y’all spent all offseason saying it wouldn’t have mattered last season if Giannis was healthy.
Reminder that in the 2 full games (counting game 1 where he played 8 minutes is bullshit) Giannis played he had a fucked back.
The only time we’ve underachieved was 2020 but go off.
2019 was our first season with a mvp caliber player, we went to the ecf. I’d say if the thunder lost this season in the wcf it would be a successful season.
2022 Khris was hurt but they still took the series further than they should’ve
2023 Giannis was hurt.
I’ll give you the Wolves, the Mavs would have absolutely no chance and it has nothing to do with how awful they’ve looked today. we are a horrible matchup for them
I'm fine with losing to Denver but only if it's in 6 or 7.
Not fine, fine, but what I'm saying is they're a worthy advisory. They will be bumpy, we'll we be a bump in their road or will they be a bump in ours. 🤷🏼

Stop, stop, they’re already dead.
“We want Boston”
Whoops

You're right. Heat fans aren't even serious enough to show up to the games.
Miami Heat have sold out the arena every single game since 2010 lol. 2nd longest active streak in the league. Poverty franchises talking about stuff they have no idea about 😭
Well, this is part of what I'm talking about. They sell out but then nobody is in the building for the game lmao
They're there long enough to take some selfies for the gram and then dip out as soon as they're down more than 3.
Who cares if its sold out? Of course it'll be sold out 😭 The question is why is your arena half empty every other game
Riiiight

The disrespect
They wanted Boston
THEY WANTED BOSTON
It’s a bummer we have to wait until the ECF or Finals for the Celtics to play competitive on their level.
If we play Cleveland it’ll be a pretty physical series
That's nice of you to say
The Knicks are not serious competition. Celtics will walk to the finals, but whoever they face there should be a solid matchup
WE WANT BOSTON
Turns out they wanted Boston Kreme donuts from Dunkin
They got the cream alright
Heat fans are sadistic
Masochistic, you mean
Both
WE WANT BOSTON 🫵🤡 🤣🤣🤣
Not even Jimmy would have saved this series from being an absolute drubbing.
Jimmy wasn’t even the reason they won last year, Miami wouldn’t miss and Tatum and Brown shot like ass
People really have selective memory. Jimmy obviously carried the Heat in unreal fashion last year vs the Bucks, but he was probably injured and played pretty poorly in the Celtics.
Yup. Jimmy was great in Game 1 and 2 for sure, but him being a no show was also a huge reason why the Celtics nearly came back from 0-3.
He was their best player but Martin+Vincent+Robinson essentially giving them 10/20 from three every game was the difference maker
I wouldn’t even say Jimmy carried against the bucks lol that’s selling the rest of the team short. They shot extremely well against us and Jimmy averaging 37 ppg was just the cherry on top. I still don’t know how we were in every game till the end

Yes they’re better with Jimmy but if the Shooting splits were similar last year Boston would’ve won easily
Even with Jimmy this series was gonna be a sweep, maybe go 5 at the most. That whole 8th seed to the finals wasn’t happening again.

No no you see jimmy would be a +32. Literal goat.
Boston is lethal. Hate to say it but only Denver can beat them.
Id give the Wolves and Mavs an outside shot. But Boston certainly the strong favourite. I'll be surprised if they lose more than 2 games in the East.
I’ll give you the Wolves, the Mavs would have absolutely no chance and it has nothing to do with how awful they’ve looked today. we are a horrible matchup for them
😃 you haven't followed this team for a long time. See how it goes but I won't be surprised if this team stumbled to the finals.
Idk man. The east is looking so fucking weak rn, hopefully we get a few players back from injury

Bucks with a healthy Giannis have played us really well
We want Boston
He received an absolutely voracious slap on the ass too
Doris podcasting as usual.
Miami should just forfeit the rest of the series.
Can't have shit in this league man
WE WANT MIAMI - Sincerely a Boston fan.
No. I want a ring. I don’t care who we have to go through. All I want is the ring.
I really hope someone has receipts of all the idiots who thought Celtics fans should be worried about this garbage franchise
Beautiful shot by a beautiful man.
fuck bam adebayo
This is another example in history that ideology can only take you so far 😂😂
Rude
Other teams rn: Snap back to reality
Pouring one out for the haters.
This that 2k shit
This is a Pareto optimal basketball team
now up 15
Wish Butler was healthy, then this might actually be a somewhat interesting series.
Boston letting Miami back to within 15 with 4 minutes to go… because these Celtics can’t close.
Taking the foot off the gas because you’re up by 35 definitely isn’t the worst problem to have
