Boston Celtics @ Miami Heat 11/30/15 GT:

[Smoke117]

Let's go Heat! Finish off November on a high note.

[MMM]

Feel like the Celtics will get slapped but I hope am wrong

[Derka]

Also feel like we're going to get rocked.

[BasedTom]

:rockon:

[Smoke117]

Story of Wade's season so far...missing all kinds of easy shit.

[Derka]

I hate when we're not aggressive to the rim. You can't expect whistles if you don't set an aggressive tone early and just settle for outside stuff.

[Smoke117]

Come on Bosh...there was no reason to take that 3. Find a better shot.

[aj1987]

Anyone have a good link? FirstRow is shit.

[BasedTom]

wiltside making his FTs :applause:

[BasedTom]

so are the celtics gonna miss a shot or nah

[Smoke117]

Why can't Wade and Bosh ever play well at the same time?! :biggums:

It gets so frustrating...

[aj1987]

****ing turnovers!

[RRR3]

Heat look like shit with the ball. Turnovers galore. Sloppy, distracted play.

[BasedTom]

19-4 boston run

they're scoring EVERY TIME

[Derka]

Miami turnovers helped...attacking the basket opened some things up, too. Nice quarter.

[MMM]

ETO taking over

[RRR3]

so, uh, when is Dragic gonna do something?

[fragokota]

Anyone have a good link? FirstRow is shit.

somehow back in this....

TYLER MOTHER****ING JOHNSON

[Derka]

lol, just straight up changed his mind after calling a charge :oldlol:

[aj1987]

Wade teaching TJ. :bowdown:


lol, just straight up changed his mind after calling a charge :oldlol:
It was the other ref who changed it.

[RRR3]

somehow back in this....

TYLER MOTHER****ING JOHNSON
:applause:


TJ>Moron Tragic

[Smoke117]

Tyler Johnson is really growing on me. Like I said...I think we should start him alongside Wade and bring in Dragic with Green and Winslow.

[RRR3]

Wade teaching TJ. :bowdown:


It was the other ref who changed it.
Justise needs to work on his finishing

[BasedTom]

lol, just straight up changed his mind after calling a charge :oldlol:
refs have been weird this year

[Derka]

Could really do with a few more of these turnovers because they really help.

[RRR3]

Smoke, you play guitar right? How many chords do you know? I currently know 3 by name :lol

and power chords but i don't the terminology

[RRR3]

Celtics fans, why doesn't Sully get more minutes?

[BasedTom]

more turnovers :facepalm

[Derka]

refs have been weird this year
It's always something with these turkeys.

Winslow should have finished that last one.

[Smoke117]

Smoke, you play guitar right? How many chords do you know? I currently know 3 by name :lol

and power chords but i don't the terminology

Me? No. I play the harmonica. :lol I didn't have the patience for the guitar.

[BasedTom]

dragic needs to join whiteside at those overnight FT practices :lol

aaand whiteside in foul trouble and blockless...tough night

[Derka]

Celtics fans, why doesn't Sully get more minutes?
Stevens tries to get too cute with the rotations sometimes to get guys more minutes and find combinations that work. Sully has been the most consistent big this year by far.

[aj1987]

Sit the **** down, Wade. :facepalm

[Derka]

Is Wade just pacing himself? Looks slow out there.

[RRR3]

Me? No. I play the harmonica. :lol I didn't have the patience for the guitar.
Oh damn :lol Yeah, guitar is really testing my patience but it makes me happy when I've played for a while so its good.

You guys have too many bigs tbh. I'm surprised they stockpiled so many. I'd think they'd want to develop Olynyk and Sully more

[aj1987]

Is Wade just pacing himself? Looks slow out there.
He's just taking dumbass shots. Too many contested mid-range jumpers.

[MMM]

Not sure if Sully has the conditioning to play heavy mins

[Smoke117]

Wade has been like this all season...playing well one quarter...awful the 2nd. He can't seem to just put a good scoring game together in general.

[aj1987]

Celtic commentators ROASTING Kobe. :oldlol:

[Derka]

Not sure if Sully has the conditioning to play heavy mins
His weight is going to be an issue at some point. He's got to trim down.

[MMM]

Lol @ Scal

"Why to see him shoot 2-19"

On kobe last game at the garden

[BasedTom]

feels like every offensive possession is a fcking suicide mission

meanwhile everything is going perfect for boston, even the weirdest shots

the fact that we're not getting blown the **** out of the building is difficult to comprehend

[BasedTom]

Of ****ing course.

[RRR3]

:facepalm

[RRR3]

Celtic commentators ROASTING Kobe. :oldlol:
What'd they say?

[Smoke117]

I'm not too worried at this point...they won't shoot this well the 2nd half.

[Derka]

You guys have too many bigs tbh. I'm surprised they stockpiled so many. I'd think they'd want to develop Olynyk and Sully more
I think Dany wants to trade some of them, but we'll see.

Lol, no way is that a good 3 :oldlol: Does anyone have a slower motion than Amir? Jeeeeesus.

[Smoke117]

Lol @ Scal

"Why to see him shoot 2-19"

On kobe last game at the garden

Kobe taking ethers from everybody now.

[MMM]

Damn Amir's release was so slow

[Derka]

Lol @ Scal

"Why to see him shoot 2-19"

On kobe last game at the garden
That game is on a Wednesday and Balcony seats a already up over $120 each. :lol

[aj1987]

What'd they say?
Gorman was saying that the tickets are going to be too expensive to buy and B. Scal said "Why? To see him shoot 2-19?".

[CarlosBoozer]

White Mamba :bowdown:

[Derka]

Feel like it's worth mentioning, and I might have last season as well...Heat game threads are seven zillion times better without Lebronstans everywhere.

[Smoke117]

The lebron haters too...they are equally obnoxious.

[RRR3]

Gorman was saying that the tickets are going to be too expensive to buy and B. Scal said "Why? To see him shoot 2-19?".
Damn. Cold blooded. Feel for the bean, he's been so bad. He needs to stop shooting so much though.

[aj1987]

Wade is playing like ****ing ancient ass Kobe right now. STOP TAKING ****ING CONTESTED JUMPERS!

[Smoke117]

Wade is playing like ****ing ancient ass Kobe right now. STOP TAKING ****ING CONTESTED JUMPERS!

He's out there playing like a ****ing retard. You can't just throw it up to Whiteside when its congested in the paint, wtf?

[RRR3]

Boston's defense picking Heat apart :facepalm

[Derka]

Miami being more than a bit careless here to start.

[BasedTom]

what the actual fck am i watching :facepalm

bring out tyler johnson or something

nice dunk wade

[BasedTom]

Wade is playing like ****ing ancient ass Kobe right now. STOP TAKING ****ING CONTESTED JUMPERS!
he's not all that much younger than kobr

[BasedTom]

at this rate celtics are gonna finish tonight shooting at like 80% from the field :mad: :mad: :mad:

of course it's a lot easier to score when it's off turnovers :mad: :mad: :mad:

[Derka]

Wade going 06 right now.

[aj1987]

Wade! :bowdown:

I want him to do more of that. Not take 20 contested midrange jumpers a game.

[Derka]

Heat are getting to the rim at will.

[Smoke117]

Looks like Wade started going off when I went to the kitchen to mash my potatos

[Derka]

Rozier? Really?

[Derka]

AB is the friggin offense tonight.

Miami still getting to the rim at will. Defense like this doing us no favors.

[MMM]

C's don't have the horses to close this one out it seems

First let wade go off now bosh
:facepalm

[BasedTom]

absolutely ridiculous how the celtics are shooting

meanwhile gerald green misses a wide open 3

[Derka]

Do our bigs need lessons on rolling to the basket? That's the third time now a guard has looked for a roller and found air with a pass.

Roll to the damn basket, bigs.

[MMM]

Roll to the damn basket, bigs.

To be fair I think Amir thought Bradley was going to shoot

[WadeStan]

Bosh :banghead:

[Derka]

Bosh trying to do too much there.

[aj1987]

**** this shit!

Gonna go watch Curry rape the Jazz.

[JohnFreeman]

I have money on Boston, close it out you beautiful people

[BasedTom]

i'm praying that wade can will us to this win

feels like 09

[Smoke117]

Wade has looked so good physically this season.

[Derka]

Awful shot by Crowder. Sully definitely got fouled.

[WadeStan]

Wade :applause:

[BasedTom]

f**ck

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c11/miabiboy_14/GIFs%20And%20Funny%20Stuff/JerseyShoreSHITGif.gif

19 turnovers ffs

[WadeStan]

Bosh can't catch those lobs like Whiteside, Wade... But good stuff

[Derka]

Crowder has to make that. Not a good three from Isaiah either. These are the kinds of things we need to get better at at the end of close games like this.

[RRR3]

Why does Wade think he can shoot 3s as soon as the 4th quarter starts?

[BasedTom]

enough with the 3s man...keep attacking

was that jason jax whispering in brad stevens ear just now? :wtf:

[JohnFreeman]

Come on Celtics, love my boy DWade though

[f0und]

bosh 3 incoming

[WadeStan]

Wade was fouled

[Derka]

Enough Wade. Seriously.

[Derka]

How is that a foul on Amir?! Wade playing too much hero ball here.

[BasedTom]

dwyane "kobe" wade

[Smoke117]

Well that's game. Good game, celtic fans

[RRR3]

Celtics got too many offensive rebounds, and Heat turned it over an insane amount. bad loss

[f0und]

gg celtics

[aj1987]

Where the **** is Whiteside?

[BasedTom]

why even foul at this point?

[MMM]

Despite the win the Celtics looked bad at times not sure how many nights are shooting will bail us out

[Derka]

Thought for sure we'd get spanked tonight. I'll take the win though. GG Heat fans. :cheers:

[JohnFreeman]

Hate to see Wade lose, but thank you Celtics

[HenryGarfunkle]

Where the **** is Whiteside?
On the bench with 6 points. Real superstar you got there.

[BasedTom]

fck.

GG Celtics fans

[aj1987]

GG, Celtic fans.


Terrible loss, this one. Might actually go a massive losing streak now. OKC, Cleveland, Wizards, etc. coming up.

[MMM]

Wiz should be a win, they aren't a good team this season. At least in the early part of the season. They are implementing a new offense but it hasn't clicked yet.

OKC and Cle could be steals as well depending on the night. I mean OKC isn't a powerhouse yet and have had issues on the road

[ballup]

Wizards are terribad this season. Should not be a win for the Heat

[aj1987]

Potential losing streak. This Miami team has been inconsistent AF and has a retard for a HC.

I agree with you though. Could go on a nice little winning streak as well.

[LikeABosh]

Another game of Dragic looking like a mediocre role player.

[LikeABosh]

7 straight games vs. good playoff teams coming up

[Wally450]

The Celtics need to decide if they're gonna be good or not. They'll win like 3 games in a row against better teams, then lose 3 straight against mediocre teams. I know its still early but its so frustrating to watch. :lol

[brownmamba00]

If the Heat could get a guy like Schroder instead of Dragic they'd be much better...dragic looks done.

[fragokota]

Terrible loss, should have won this with all those difficult games coming up.

[Smook A.]

Wrong thread

[BasedTom]

Saying this season's Harden is a manfactured superstar is TOO NICE. He's been ****ing garbage this season. Terrible efficiency and too many free throws. He wasn't even shooting this much last season. This bitch cares more about his cash and clubs than the game he worked his ass off for. He doesn't have that drive or fire to win. James Harden is a scumbag.
....wrong thread maybe? :oldlol:

cheers anyway m8

[Smook A.]

....wrong thread maybe? :oldlol:

cheers anyway m8
Oh shit, yeah :lol

I was gonna post this in that James Harden is a manufactured superstar thread.

[GrapeApe]

That was a bad loss. At home, coming off two days of rest, and Boston on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. The Heat were disengaged, lackadaisical, and were completely unprepared for the active hands of the Celtics. They also reverted back to their old habit of not defending the 3 point line. As bad as they played in Detroit, this one feels worse. How the hell do the Heat lose by 10 getting 30/4/4/5 from Wade and 21/10/5 from Bosh? Yeah, Wade had too many turnovers but he essentially kept the Heat in the game.

I've been one of Dragic's biggest defenders but I'm legit worried at this point. We're paying 90 million for a 10/4/3 player who struggles to shoot from the perimeter and can't defend.

Also, Luol Deng being out has really hurt. It's no coincidence that the Heat have been getting hammered behind the line in his absence.

[DoctorP]

Was Wade as good as advertised? Why the loss? This is a decent Celtics team thouugh... I'm not too worked up about it.

[GrapeApe]

Wade was great for the most part, especially in the 2nd half (20/4/3/3 on 8/13), but he did have 5 TO's including a costly one late in the 4th. The Celtics were trapping hard on the perimeter and really active in the passing lanes. They scored 20+ points off TO's and shot 50% from the field, inluding 8 3's. The Celtics are a solid team but this was a dissappointing loss.

[Dresta]

God Dragic is sucking ass. If this guy could just make an open 3-ball it'd make a huge difference; would have been the difference between winning and losing last night.

When did this a-hole stop being able to shoot?

Last season, he's been sucking ass from 3pt range for a long time now.

[StephHamann]

When did this a-hole stop being able to shoot?

When he got paid 80 mio $ and started whoring around in Miami nightlife.

Dude is the european Gilbert Arenas

dragic needs the ball in his hands alot to be effective. without the ball, he's practically useless. what they need to do take the ball away from wade more and have him go back to a more off ball player like they did when lebron was there. wade can be effective with or without the ball. dragic and lebron cannot.

Dragic is not Lebron...he could actually create in the half court set. You can't take it out of Wade's hands (who is by far the best player at creating offense for himself and others in this regard) and give it into the hands of a player who can't unless it's in the open court.

[DoctorP]

Reading this: http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-heat/sfl-miami-heat-boston-celtics-s113015-story.html

The loss sounds ridiculous. More offensive selfishness and ballhogging, Whiteside not playing in the 4th... wtf ...

:confusedshrug:

[Mass Debator]

Only if it was Dragic+Chalmers for Conley+Udrih

[GrapeApe]

That's the dilemma. Wade SHOULD be playing heavily off the ball, exploiting soft spots in the defense and creating havoc with his cuts. I'm sure that's what the Heat envisioned when Dragic was acquired. Unfortunately, Dragic struggles to create in the half court and he's been underwhelming in PnR's. Wade is still the Heat's only player who can consistently create for himself and others, and Dragic is completely ineffective off the ball.

Something interesting (and telling) I've noticed is how opposing defenses are keying on Wade almost as if it's 2010. They are trapping hard on the perimeter, denying the ball, and his man-defenders have been extremely active. Dragic's struggles have been a big part of that. At 34 years old, Wade cannot be asked to carry the offense as the primary a creator and playmaker. He can do it for stretches and for key possessions, but he needs to be primarily working off the ball. In order for that to happen Dragic needs to pick up his play.

Agreed. Dragic needs to step it up, when he plays well the team usually wins and runs better offensively.
