I can’t recall ever seeing a game stop over concern the rim was not level.

This is a horrible finals matchup. I'd rather watch Bears vs Texans.

The Heat are very boring. Celtics - Nuggets would’ve been a lot more entertaining.

Heat are like an NHL 8th seed that gets to the finals then is overwhelmed by the much better opponent.

Tyler herro is desperately needed at this point. Probably same outcome but at least these games would have been closer

Last time Tyler Herro played they got their ass kicked at home by my Atlanta Hawks in the play in game. Seems to me they are doing just fine overall without him.

Miami is just back to where they were all year. They had a fortunate run at the right time and now reverted back to losing 6 of the last 8.

They had Jokic on the bench with 5 fouls and couldn't make a run. End of story, end of the series.

There's no compelling team out there imo. It's like Denver is winning not because they are some unstoppable force of nature but because everyone else sucks. Lol Miami? Please.

It’s all anticlimactic for Denver after sweeping the balding fraud.

Absolute TONS OF PUSHBACK that Jokic isn't compelling. The fact is, he kinda isn't. He is in small doses, like every couple weeks, but not every two days. I don't deny he may be the best player in the NBA, but it's similar to watching the best plumber in America. I can't help but to lose interest

Like Yasmani Grandal's framing, Miami fooled us. I'm not mad about the parody, I'm mad Miami got hot at the right time. This isn't supposed to be like baseball or hockey.

The story of the 2022-23 season is there was Denver and then there was everybody else. A few saw it, kudos to Favrefan, but I didn't. This fuckin' Aaron Gordon, now THAT guy's compelling.

Is this the Jimmy Butler game?

Butler needs it to avoid negating a lot of what he accomplished in the early rounds. At least one epic Butler game in these Finals. Folks already posting "Missing Dog" meme posters on twitter and calling him out for disappearing. Doesn't help that his cinderella teammates have turned back into G-Leaguers. But Butler didn't have all that much help taking down Giannis and the Bucks.

Also, that Jokic fella is really fucking good. I don't know if his supporting cast is that good or if playing with Jokic elevates their game.

if nothing else, Butler's repeated falling flat in the Finals and Lebron's 4-9 Finals record highlights the degree of difficulty
of Jordan's Finals record.

I thought that one guy who asked Jokic if he knew any good contractors was a little over the line.

:lol:


I thought Jokic was you playing. :lol:

I can’t identify with the southern Slavs. My Slavs are western Slavs and it shall remain that way.

His game, however, is not dissimilar to mine while playing on a 7ft hoop against a group of 10yr olds.


biggest ethnic population in europe and most people wouldn't even know there is a categorical breakdown of western, eastern and southern slavs. Back before we became white, we were all just an amalgamation of displaced persons.

Not anymore because Butler has no interest being aggressive on offense. The Heat are essentially playing 4 on 5.

If Denver fails to win this game then the NBA should step in, cancel this series, and award the championship to New York or some other long suffering NBA city. This series cannot be allowed to continue.

Jimmy Butler won't allow Denver to lose.
