The Heat and the Nuggets actually sounds like the finals matchup I’ve always been waiting for. They each have phenomenal coaches. Each have high level players. Neither have had to pull any dirty plays to get to where they are. I’m very excited to have a high level NBA Finals.
Cap Heat in 4 Jamal dropped 30 points in the 1st half with D’lo guarding him and only put 7pts up in the second with Vanderbilt guarding him so Jimmy clamping that🤧and Bam not getting bullied by Jokic🥱
@OSAMA I bet you he does get bullied
@OSAMA There’s being a fan then there’s being straight delusional.
Never had to pull any dirty plays🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agree I don't wanna see floppers Lakers and crybabies celtics go to final
As a Bucks fan, I'm feeling better and better about our series loss against Miami.
Me 2 and I fell coach Bud we should have waited on that!
Giannis wasn't fully fit for the entire series either
@StlS even if giannis was healthy they would loose the heat is on fire mate
@StlS Giannis got outplayed by Jimmy Butler and ran away from the foul line worse than LBJ.
I think with a healthy Bucks the way the Heat are playing, the Heat would still take the Bucks. They playing unbelievable right now and no way like an eighth seed.
The discipline that Spoelstra has built this team around is incredible. Hard not to think of him as one of the best coaches ever.
What Best Coach Dear? That would be Coach Kerr and Coach Lebron. Coach Kerr 4 rings,Since Coach Lebron left with is 2 Rings. Miami has not won a ring since. Stop the madness. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
@Janice Richards who do you think is? Doc, Bud, Tyrone and McMillan? By the way I think Heat is going to the finals....who would think that the Heat will beat up the bucks and celtics with Jimmy buckets undrafted teammates....don't tell me that the coach and his assistants are scrubs....by the way the self proclaimed GOAT and King maybe on his way to Cancun.....
@Janice Richards I am a lifetime W's fan and love Kerr, his team played with zero discipline this season and in the post season.
@Janice Richards I want you to try to evaluate coaching without mentioning "rings."
He’s white, so they have to make him the messiah.
Let’s not overlook the fact that Jimmy and Bam didn’t have monster performances and they still won by 26.
They didn’t play in the fourth quarter.
A couple of those Bam dunks should've been worth at least 10.
That's what happens when there's always 2-3 guys who will step up and score big. It doesn't have to be Jimmy or Bam, it's Duncan, Caleb, Gabe, Max, Lowry, they all can step up in any given game.
😂
@Flike bruh that spin he hit Brown with was some different gravy
Miami shot 54.3% from the 3-pt. line. That is phenomenal. The Heat rained 3's down on the Celtics, who shot only 26.2% from three point land. Shooters generally need some space to toss up a three-point shot. The modern game seems to be based upon an offensive design of pushing the ball inside, then dishing it out beyond the 3-pt. line to an open stand-still jump-shooter, who fakes jacking up a shot, then passes to an even more wide-open shooter, who then has a great look at a 3-pointer. Miami did that over and over and over again. The key seemed to be their ability to drive the ball inside to begin the play. Boston tended to collapse on the driver and leave guys open back across the 3-pt. line. I'm not sure how you defend against an avalanche of made three-pointers. Try harder? Let the driver shoot and, instead, guard against him passing the ball outside?
Everyone credits the warriors for the new style of play in the NBA, but if you really look at it. The spurs destroying the heat in the 2014 finals set the stage for what the nba is today. What the warriors did was their own version of that and of course having klay and steph definitely helped. But the entire nba changed after that finals
This strategy only works if you are facing a team that is failing to rotate defensively or close out effectively. The Celtics effort on defense has been abysmal
This is something that the commentator that was a coach was saying. The Celtics aren't doubling when they should be and are rotating late which causes them to have to collapse inside, leaving Miami's shooters wide open.
Good Ole Artillery 😂
You stop it by ROTATING AND CLOSING OUT
Ernie: "anyway, if you're just joining us-"
Chuck: "YOU DIDN'T MISS ANYTHING"
😂😂😂
Kenny: where you go from here in game 4
Chuck: Cancun
💀
Ya
We
Heard that
More IMPORTANTLY...those guys working on Shaq's pond at his Georgia home need to be fired immediately. I have never seen a more poorly planned property improvement. It is like they have never ever integrated a pond into a landscape before. No trees, no benches, idiotic pathways one person wide, Home Depot wood bridge...Shaq should have had one of his underlings kick them off the property as soon as they showed up with the moronic design....Right??
Honestly, I think that the Celtics losing 2 games on their home court shattered their confidence going into hostile territory.
Almost unheard of that a 2 would lose back to back home games in the final four 🤯 %1000 the coaches fault
Agreed, i don't wanna hear nothing else about the heat, they've proven consistently they belong here, yet people are saying its just bostons fault, heat isn't getting enough praise. And haven't for a few years now.
Yeah, that was the key difference between the nuggets and lakers series.
Lakers going 2 - 0 down is not so bad, considering they still had their 2 home games.
Boston going 2 - 0 down, IN there own territory is super bad.
Aint no way they will win 2 in miami.
A hostile territory😂 Miami is not a hostile territory😂there top five worst home court advantage I'm the NBA!!
@Animevolution 3-0 now
As a Buck's fan, with Giannis out 2 games and us being up at least 15 points in 3 games against the Heat but then losing in the fourth.. I can honestly say, the Heat playing like they have something to prove and I'm actually loving it
Jimmy’s numbers don’t say he had a great game, but the Celtics started to go all in on doubling him, and he showed that he’s a good enough play maker that that won’t work. He led the team in assists and all the role players went off. That’s what happens when a star draws two or three defenders and can pass the ball
Yeah. When you sit out the 4th quarter, the numbers go down. Crazy to think him and bam just hung out on the bench. Good for them.
Doesn’t matter at all if you win by that much.
I love Charles Barkley. Not only one of my all time favourite player, but he's the most entertaining sports commentator in the world!
I agree he's entertaining but I often feel that he's lazy and doesn't do his homework. His takes are getting more and more predictable. It only took ten seasons for the Warriors to make him look smart.
As a Knicks fan this has been beautiful. Heat never did us like _this_
Couldn’t agree more, Brunson is that dude. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s the best point guard in the nba in the next few years. Y’all lucky. Wish my pacers had him
@Knicks518tyrese gonna be great one day, you’ll be fine
For real, we're the only team this postseason that at least appeared to have a chance against Miami.
Don’t matter a loss is a loss
Because Jimmy was hurt, y’all got lucky
I'm not much of a hockey fan anymore but what I miss is the insane toughness to never give up no matter how big the odds. In the playoffs teams can be down 3 and they are double shifting the best players, guys are playing hurt, exhausted, they pull the goalie they go crazy trying to push the game to overtime no matter what. They aren't emptying the bench and giving up with 10 minutes left in the game. That was depressing. Just do anything, guard them full court, play a zone, double everyone, even if you lose the game we all respect effort and grit.
Kenny: "Where do you go for game 4"
Chuck: "Cancun"
😂😂😂
Tears 😂 lol
Where will they go for Game 5?
Guangdong Tigers...NI HAO, NI HAO...NI HAO!
😂😂😂
Chuck is a diamond 😂
Jaylen Blownout and Jason Tantrum can get their max contracts in Taiwan with Dwight.
These guys are the absolute best. Love their commentary. Hilarious and always on point.
Celtics got 21 offensive rebounds and heat got 1 and they still blew them out?! That is an insane stat.
Heat didn’t get offensive rebounds cause they’d have to miss shots for that
@gio6191993 LOL. Exactly what I was thinking, my dude.
@gio6191993 yeah I know but still pretty wild. Celtics got an extra 21 possessions and were still blown out.
The Celtics Missed/bricked 59 shots. Don't forget, garbage time began half way through the 3rd quarter. These clowns took 42 3-pointers out of 98 total shots and missed 31 of them!!
Their "leadership" probably thinks... if we just hit 9 more 3's we would have won. They have no clue how to rebound, defend, drive the lane, make plays off the ball, control pace, etc.. Coming from a fan of 40 years, these clowns should be dumped in the Charles River.
The Celtics are exactly who we thought they were. A good team that folds when it counts.
Like altantas big brother
i been telling my friend this all year but apparently im a hater. Now im right lol
Right
I appreciate Jalen Brown for giving the credits the Heat deserved despite his feeling of embarrassment and frustration. Such a great guy as a player and as a person.
Ice lex your mother
Idk about that Jalen has some very questionable societal takes lately… seems rather dull in the thinking department.
Lol not great as a person…….
he sound like they already lost tho, they still in. i dont think theyre gonna win but they gotta be hungry.
The Heat not leaving it to the judges. I love it. 🥊
Lomachenko beat Haney dude
The heat played normal, the celtics gave up because they know their coach has no answers and is an airhead
@Troy Parker They played a perfect game.
@noothanks Loma took his foot off the gas in the 12th and left it to the judges. The champ will always be rewarded with the swing rounds. Loma fd up.
@noothanks if u want to be champ you don’t leave it to the judges.
I love these guys together, they give the best honest NBA commentary
This is the all-time greatest studio team. No NFL show has ever been this good.
As a Celtics fan, this was not a game, it was a wake in preparation for the game 4 funeral.
👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀
The biggest concern for me, before the playoffs even started, was the minutes distribution and too short rotation. Our top 7 players are exhausted. Yet not willing to admit it. And that is on the coach and his staff. Even on Brad cause it's been obvious from any seat in the Garden and around the world. Best from Croatia... Hope dies last but nothing short of a miracle would be needed... Just keep the 'same' group together going into the next season
I love how self aware Shaq is about his free throw issues.
Hack a Shaq was very successful
Who else remembers ESPN giving the Heat a 3% chance to win the series? 😂
😂😂
Charles is right, the coach can contribute to a great performance, but a coach has no impact on elite players playing badly
This may be the best Charles has done in years. He guaranteed the Nuggets and Celtics would both make the conference finals, and for months has been guaranteeing the Nuggets would win the title.
@chris gullettGUARANTEED!!!
I mean; the elite players have no control on how much pt a player gets (Rob Will with barely any minutes) or how disciplined their team is on both sides.
Gibran Camus you are right. Rw looked flustered and couldn't handle it
Honestly tatum isnt elite. Elite is reserved for plyers like Jokic
For the Celtics, their defence is the only thing that can bring then back.
You either play a half court trap or meet the ball carrier at the 3point line.
Playing the man 3 feet from the 3point line is allowing Miami more space inside, helping their screens be more affective and bringing the Celtics big men too far away from the basket.
Until they create stops, their offence will struggle.
I 've been a Celtic fan for over sixty years , last nights game was a disaster. I think before they go any further in the play offs, they are going to have to find a dominant big man . They also have to make more effort when they play ,and not think they can just show up and win .
Al was good enough the last few years, and Rob filled in his gaps. I think this year Rob's inconsistencies/injuries and Al's age have actually lowered our big man's effectiveness.
I don’t think it’s effort . That is what the kings (my team ) coach always preaches . It doesn’t work in playoffs , you can’t give maximum effort and play at the highest level , just like a boxer or martial artist has to fight in a calm state almost .
And Tatum also needs to be more consistent…needs to step up, become great and show up in every game 😶
Uh Jayson Tatum is not that dude
What planet are you from? Further in the playoffs?! It's Over.
“Humbly, I am one of the best basketball players in the world”. That statement told me everything I needed to know about Tatum. Unfortunately the Celtics are far better in their own minds than on the court. They used to play defense but began relying on their offensive abilities. In the end great defense (meaning hard work and effort) beats great offense in the long run, because you can control effort but not a shooting slump.
Yes I saw him say that.
And I started laughing.
How can you be one of the best players in the world ?
With NO ring.
You can't.
Your only one of many good players in the world, with NO ring.
You got to have that ring, to be one of the best.
PERIOD.
He's one of the best players in the world. No one who knows basketball disputes that. Unfortunately, he hasn't played like it in this series.
Saying “humbly” is almost worse imo.
@Edge Sanity
What about last year. And the year before that.
I've been saying this for years.
Tatum and the Celtics have the Tony Romo syndrome.
CHOKES IN THE BIG GAMES.
Also you have to have a ring to be one of the best.
Without it you're just one of the many good players.
Anybody that has played sports knows that.
@ASS OG Nobody knows that. That's stuff people say to fill up 24/7 sports debate networks. Teams will championships, not individuals.
I am a long time Boston fan but sadly the head coach is not up to making changes during the game and needs to be more open and making sure to have the ENTIRE team. Joe Mazzulla must be totally open and say the entire Celtics are at fault. Why would any coach take it as what the team failed to do? The team...all of them must come together to find the weakness of Miami and make it happen. I do not see the Celtics bring this together this year. Super stars step up and DO YOUR JOB! No more spacing...work it in the paint. Drive the paint and make it happen. The Celtics are a mess. No leaders at all to drive the team at all! It is a shame that this is what happened. It is so sad that no one will step up and remind this team where we are. Embarrassed by the Celtics
Celtics offense is so stagnant that it's unbelievable. So much of their offense involves one person having the ball for most of the shot clock and then taking a bad shot. So many times you see Tatum and/or Brown just standing in a corner the whole time. They don't seem to care about ball movement and are content to simply pass it around the arc and then take a bad shot.
Iso ball lives and dies by your outside shot if you can keep filling the lanes and stop the drive. No one on the perimeter hitting his shot? Well, that's gonna be an L. Especially true if the whole team is shooting less than 30% from mid and beyond. Watching iso play is so boring, frankly.
There offense, like philly revolves around fouls
Most of this falls in the players. But A lot of this falls on Joe Mazulla's inexperience. The Celtics basically have the same team they had last year. But with Ime Udoka, they were much more poised, confident & prepared. This year, the Celtics look clueless & afraid.
The Celtics players individually have failed and let the coach down. Mazulla is alsl being completely
outcoached by Spoelstra.
It's a collective failure
Total vindication for Udoka imo. Boston effed up by how they handled that situation and let him go.
The Celtics rebounded better last year, they were the best defensive team in the league last year & they ran better sets. This lost is due to coaching.
But I thought Kyrie was the problem 🤔
udoka was way better n commanded respect better as well
@MrGenexxx what?
Jimmy is ripping the soul out of this team. Love to see it
Shaq is full of it. He should know 1st hand how much a coach means to a team. His Lakers got bounced every year before the Zen Master came to town and guided them to a 3peat. Coaches matter big time.
Yeah plus his Heat team didn’t win until Pat Riley took the team back from Stan VanGundy
Shaq is extremely egotistical. He won't ever admit it's the coach that bought the best in him
More IMPORTANTLY...those guys working on Shaq's pond at his Georgia home need to be fired immediately. I have never seen a more poorly planned property improvement. It is like they have never ever integrated a pond into a landscape before. No trees, no benches, idiotic pathways one person wide, Home Depot wood bridge...Shaq should have had one of his underlings kick them off the property as soon as they showed up with the moronic design....Right???
You mean Tex Winter
The heat are hitting ridiculous shots, and have been doing so 3 games in a row. If we lose this series, I hope they continue to do so in the finals
Shaq nailed it on Boston! No sense of urgency and way too cool!!

7:42 Charles Barkley told his kid he’s coming home after game 4 😂😂😂
21 to 1 offensive rebounds and you lose by 30. That first answer by Joe left everyone speechless for a moment.
It was like that bc Miami wasn’t missing 😂
This is honestly an insane stat
Yes insane stat: Celtics had 21 offensive rebounds, Heat 1. Heat shot 54% from 3-pointers, Celtics shot 25% (Tatum and Brown 1 for 14 on 3-pointers)
No surprises coz you got Miami shooting close to 60% from the field.
don't need offensive reb if you hit erthing
I love the coach taking full accountability but also for the reporters for asking him to elaborate on it
Shaq's keeping it real! 🙂
Celtics players realize they are playing against a team more diverse than themselves and are just going through the motions. It’s not about outside noise and past stats ranking you as the better team. Simply put, all that matters is the game being played today and today the better team won.
Shaq is 100% right. Celtics were way too cool for school. That's what i really like about Butler: he's not trying to be flashy or unnecessarily cool. Hes a gamer and hes a winner and he puts winning first (Lowry shares in these qualities as well)
Finally giving the Heat credit as a team playing well when it mattered. Playing to win vs playing not to lose.
The superstar thing Shaq talks about is true. There is not many actual superstars in the league because the biggest criteria for a superstar is you consistently put up great games. Maybe one bad game in the series but thats it. You better deliver in all the rest.
The superstars I watched growing up showed up and gave everything and faught to the end MJ , KOBE That’s superstars
There's a lot of PLclip highlights superstars. In the regular season we only see the step-back 3 go in from 30' but we don't see the 4-19 box score. The highlights don't show some stars getting half their points at the free throw line. We don't see how some stars score 99% of their points in the first 3 quarters or during garbage time.
@Thomas Lippiatt There are superstars today too. Jokic and Butler havent had a single bad game they show up everytime.
“You didn’t miss anything”.
SAVAGE… and yet absolutely correct. Celtics are finished. They’ve let Bill Russell down. They have shown this kind of complacency all season long. Why do you think they lost to the Magic 3 times?
It’s inexplicable that the Celtics doubled Jimmy at the end of the first half, and crawled back into the game, then went away from it completely in the third quarter.
That’s a lack of leadership or focus or basic basketball knowledge or all 3
The Heat was just more confident I think. They won the first two games on the road. Confidence goes a long way.
I like how the Heat didn’t let up. In a playoff game there should always be no mercy!
As a Celtics fan, this was not a game, it was a wake in preparation for the game 4 funeral.
The Celtics need to make some trades for next year. This team as constructed is not a championship team from a Warriors fan.
Ime would never get swept
Celtics will get swept while the Lakers will win in 7!
BOW DOWN TO THE KING!
Lakers fan for life 🏳🌈
BLM! Protect trans kids!🏳⚧
Celtics are feeling the heat 🔥 getting ready for the funeral 😂😂😂
@Los Revolucionarios What are you smoking mate. Lakers in 7🤣🤣🤣. Do you mean the Lakers will seat down their starters 7 minutes to end 4th quarter tonight?
What we're seeing now speaks to what I find lacking in these sports media shows today. It's all about creating and hyping one's own personality than the actual assessing of player's and their teams abilities to perform. The idea that Kevin Durant and a few additions to the Lakers so late in the season were going to change the fortunes of their respective teams was ludicrous. Teams like the Nuggets and Heat have been playing with their core group the entire year so none of this is really that surprising. They are more prepared for the rigors of a playoff run than the others. Even Boston with its two solid players has always been inconsistent. They had a chance with the coach they fired but that went when he left. All the predictions and prognostications was a bunch of hogwash. Most of these sports media guys just need to stick to buying your fresh suits, getting your hair 'did', and talking trash as if you're at a comedy roast instead of actually focusing on analysing teams and their talent. Keep up the good work JJ, Broussard, and the few others that try to keep it real!!! What say to that AMERICA? Peace and blessings to ALL!!!
Big respect to the coach for trying to take responsibility for this team....not all his fault though
How does a team like this, dudes that have won together for a while, not be ready to play down 2-0? How? How can the coach say that? How insane
As a Bulls fan it hurts a bit to see Jimmy succeed since I knew he was gonna ball out even when Thibs put him in for garbage minutes at the end of games. Classic Bulls getting rid of someone with huge potential. He just looked fundamental and solid. But I'm glad he's having success and doing work out there.
For real ! Imagine how the Timberwolves and Sixers feel -
“Charlie, big poppy is coming home Wednesday to see my little grand baby.” 😂😂😂 Charles gonna be Charles and we’re all here for it. ❤
Joe Mazulla taking the blame is funny. You didn't have your guys ready to play? Did Tatum and the others somehow forget that it's a 7-game series?
But I been told Kyrie was the problem 🤔
@MrGenexxx hes a problem on anyteam without lebron
@MrGenexxx Celt went to the Final Without Kyrie. How is this even relevant to Kyrie right now?
Hes like an embarrassed parent. Like his kid just mooned at grad..hes so ashamed
@S_AME , And they lost in the Finals, Kyrie has a championship, balled-out and hit the game winning shot in Game 7
Tatum & Brown are pathetic out there at times, Kyrie never plays this bad on the biggest stage🙄
I died at ShaqGPT: "Fill up your tank when it's halfway empty" 😆😆😆😆😆😆

This is going to be the best finals in a while, I'm actually kinda excited.
As a sixer fan Jalen going through it 😂, it's like everytime boston lose a game he has to be the one player to answer for the team where TF is the STAR TATUM he's the supposed best player and he consistently more times than not shoots the celtics out of games
For the Celtics, you could see some vulnerability up till now. They should've swept ATL, but gave them unnecessary life. They lose the first game to Philly in the 2nd round off a Harden 3. And they lost 2 games to Miami in Boston that were winnable.
Shaq said exactly what everyone was thinking “The Celtics are too cool for me”…
Exactly !

It’s just hard for many people to except, but the Heat are a better basketball team. It clearly just isn’t coaching on Miami’s part, it’s effort it’s players its momentum. Everything is going Miami’s way.
Accept*
@LASAGNA LARRY yes thank you accepting my error!
Effort and momentum are directly related to coaching though, Spo giving a masterclass
Exactly
Shaq is getting better at being an analyst. He was the most correct out of everyone on the panel, great take.
Shaq bodied that conversation! HE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!
As a Celtics fan, I fully endorse/co-sign what Chuck said Periodt.
Shaq was right about the Heat winning the series and was right about his analysis
Shaq said it, "The Celtics are way too cool." Game 2, Tatum raised his arms to the crowd late in the 2nd with what felt like, "We got this, no problem. The home team always wins game 2." They need urgency. Wow.
Boston needs maturity.
@Jayson Raphael Murdock Maturity??? They were in the final last year!!! everyone knows that the only difference is the departure of coach Udoka, it's not only tactical but also on the human level.
@Douls TIM Tatum is arrogant, he was spoiled by a ECF very early in his career and hasn't experienced actually struggling to make the playoffs
Celtics will get swept while the Lakers will win in 7!
BOW DOWN TO THE KING!
@TeaSay maybe true but i think his inconsistency is his biggest problem. same for Jalyen Brown.
Kenny speaking facts. Heat pulled the plug 🔌
I agree the Boston coaching has a good bit to do with the lose. Spolstra has better history and experience with his team. He also has strong support from the other coaches on the team. Boston would probably be in better shape with Ime Udoka
The Celtics hammered the Sixers just like they did to Miami last night, but very few foul calls during Sixer games. There were plenty of calls against the Celtics last night.
People fail to recognize that our bench played as starters last year for 4 5 months, and they balled out, don't feel bad Celtics the HEAT are locked in !!!!
This is crazy!!! Before the conference finals began, this playoffs had the possibility to be a lakers vs. Celtics finals. However, as of right now both the lakers and the Celtics are both down 0-3…so sad 😢
The NBA needs a bronze medal game for 3rd in the championship - then we could get that Celtics Lakers game.
Greatest Playoff-Run since '11 Mavs!!! Never was a Heat-Fan, but this is epic!!! Love it + RESPECT!!!
Detroit too against Shaq and kobe
@Laurence robert tampus halpin he said playoff RUN, not series. But I definitely agree with Andy, not a big heat fan, but this is an epic run from an 8th seed.
@Alton Vails there's no superstars on that squad and nobody thought they can make it to the championship run.
@Laurence robert tampus halpin jimmy is a superstar
@Mo 2k yeh he has been since 2020
3 years, 3 coaches, 3 results being the same. This team is could be great.
The Knicks dont look bad now. The Heat are on fire!🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a heat and Boston fan idc who wins but I want Miami’s whole team to get rings they have been amazing
How are you a fan of both teams? Lol As a sole Boston fan, I can’t wait to see Jokic and Murray body Miami in the finals. Props to Miami though I watched the first play in game and though they were cooked, but they’ve proven a lot of people wrong.
I love how the fellas get serious when it comes to deep in the playoffs. Apt analysis fellas (Darrell Philbin voice)
Respect to Jalen Brown... speaking from the heart ❤️
"You didn't miss anything" Im glad Chuck confirmed what I was feeling earlier when I said I wasn't watching the Cs implode 🤣
I missed the game. Looks like I didn’t miss anything.
@Kim King Exactly, probably saved your hair too 🤣
😂😂
I'm so happy I had a wedding to go to. The bride's brother mentioned that we were 30 down at the beginning of his speech and I had to just pretend it didn't happen for sanity's sake
I feel you man I gave up on the Warriors after game 4 vs the Lakers and I saved myself a lot of mental anguish 😂
A classic example of a team playing through the regular season at a playoff-level intensity and having no level to rise to in the actual postseason.
I feel it for the Celtics coach 😢I hope they don’t fire him. He can stay as an assistant coach. At least he realizes and admits he did not do well enough. Also it’s not only on him. Others should be blamed.
How can you not be ready to play a must win playoff game. Where is the Celtic pride.
Miami Heat are atraight up killas! If they win the chip, it would be a cinderella of a season. Mad respect to Coach Spo
And Pat Riley for establishing a winning, no-nonsense culture. Wish we still had him in NY.
Where was Spo after Lebron left?
@Uchenna Sunday
Heat?
@Uchenna Sunday Getting into a conference finals 3/4 years, and making history..
Steph Curry discombobulated them from last season. They spent the year preparing for Steph, in fear, but instead got Jimmy Freaking Butler.
I'd be happy for Jimmy or Jokic winning their first chip. Glad they both in the final.
Edit: Celtics and Lakers have not played a single game in this series that indicates they will come back and win 4-3.
They ain’t in the finals yet..
I need jimmy to win he deserves it...reminds me of the old school basketball players no bs off court bt str8 dog n competitor on court
@Requierem ain’t no one coming back from 0-3
Exactly
@Requieremare you Celtics fans or lakers fans sound like it lol. No team has ever come back down 0-3 stoop being salty
As a C’s fan, me, my wife, and my 2 & 3 year old could have started against the Heat and had the exact same outcome in the last 3 games as the Celtics...
I'm so happy that it seems like the finals will be Nuggets vs Heat. My favorite club is Heat since i was 8 and I'm from Serbia just like Jokic. So they are my two favorite teams in the NBA. If the go through it should be an exciting match up and I'm all for it!!
I respect the head coaches “the buck stops here” message but I really think that this one is on the players. This level of “I give up, this is too hard” cannot be attributed solely to the coach.
Its adorable to see chuck looking so excited to see Charlie❤
That game looked and felt like a Game 4 sweep.
I love when Shaq emphasized "gotta get a 38 or 40 without the free throws" 👀😂
Nothing special about Shaq he born a big dude. He put no effort to be better he just big.
@John weak Stop with that weak narrative. Yes, he could’ve worked harder on his deficiencies.. but he still worked hard. He didn’t lackadaisically mosey his way into the HOF & 4 rings.. especially not when he was the best player in the world during the first 3..
@John weak U obviously never seen Shaq play
Younger James Harden needed to hear that
@John weak there are a lot of big players in the NBA but none of them were as dominant as Shaq. He had great foot work and was athletic and surprisingly light on his feet. If you think just being big will get you success in the NBA; then you’re obviously just a casual fan and that’s giving you too much credit
Top two east coast teams didn’t show up to the playoffs. This goes to show that team chemistry is everything. Play off ranks means nothing. GO HEAT!!!!
The thing is : the Heats were better, and whatever the Celtic's coach may have tried to do, the result would have been the same. I felt pain to see the lost looks of the Celttic's players. they were stunned, and shocked already at alftime. The Hetas were just unbeatable. Celtics played a bad game at theworst time. Buttler on the floor is like MJ on the floor too now. This guy brings a heck of a fear to the opposite team.
Shaq had really to top whah he said by saying without the free throws😂😂
I hate how those reporters kept asking the same question in a different way, and I love how the coach gave them the same answer
Shout out to Duncan Robinson for stepping in for the injured Herro. Duncan played limited minutes in last years postseason run. He’s really taking advantage of this opportunity. He’s a much better passer than Herro too.
I think a lot ppl forget the Heat are on this run without our third best player, next man up mentality is real.
That's what makes the Heat such a great team. They aren't like the Lakers where it's just 2 superstars. When 1 person has a bad day everyone in the team helps and that's why they're proving the world they can win.
@Alex S. -Herro -Oladipo is insane. Imagine how better they'd be with these guys on the floor
Duncan is good actually just don't have enough play time
Those Kyle Lowry and Duncan Robinson contracts are crazy.
Shaq can say what he wants about coaching, but he only won with Phil Jackson or Pat Riley on the bench, period. Udoka had this same exact team playing DEFENSE throughout the whole year last season, coaching and accountability makes a huge difference.
I like how in Shaqs world throwing bows came before making shots.
This is the most talented team in the NBA all they need is a coach
6:23
Kenny: "If you're cool with that, where do you go for game 4?"
Chuck: "Cancun?" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Chuck: Kenny remember our conversation downstairs? We had a private conversation
Ernie: “are you gonna make that public now?” 😂
The look on Jaylen's face says it all for the Celtics, which is "How in the F**K are these ninjas beating us like this for 3 straight games"!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The answer: Complacency
Immaturity
Miami heat is the better team
@JOHN PALMER no they're not stop lying to yourself it must want to get swept in the finals 😂😂😂
@Jayson Raphael MurdockNah, that's MEM
Coach just didn’t want to throw his guys under the bus!! Great coach
