I’m taking MIA in game 7 btw.
Better coach, better defined roles.
That said, this is where the Celtics get an opportunity to change that narrative. Don’t want to see them do it though, as you don’t want a team led by two young stars in your conference to grow into championship DNA
Huge game and win for the NBA
Mann I love Coach Spol. That’s a tough loss but what he says is very intelligent. Wish we have a coach like him. I wouldn’t be surprised if Miami wins in game 7.
Wish we had a coach in generalLove didn't play at all. I was right about Spo not starting him, but I was wrong thinking Spo might still give him spot minutes. I thought he'd get a bit of time in the 3rd quarter at least, but nope.
It’s why LeBron is/was so great.They proved they can win there. Not sure why so many are giving up, but Butler has to show up, man… Love him but he was not good, at all tonight.
I get Spo's reason for having Strus out there. If you put in someone like Highsmith or someone less experienced, they may foul a Boston shooter that would end the game. Strus got caught ball watching though and let White crash.
LeBron had some stinkers against Boston in 2009. He was pretty bad overall against the Mavs in the 2010 FinalsIt’s why LeBron is/was so great.
With the exception of maybe one time(the 2011 Finals) you could count on him to do his thing every game. Maybe not a historic game every game but an up to par game.
He didn’t have series with 3-4 good/great games and 2-3 bad games.
That’s not a knock on Jimmy Butler but it’s what separates stars/kinda superstars from generational players. Consistent, almost uninterrupted excellence that you could count on 95% of the time.
Yea, I was just thinking about 2018 Bron game 7 in Boston(and that series as a whole). Absolute generational shit. It's a huge feather in his goat cap.It’s why LeBron is/was so great.

That would be the "almost uninterrupted" part of his post.LeBron had some stinkers against Boston in 2009. He was pretty bad overall against the Mavs in the 2010 Finals
Mavs was 2011 Finals but we’re on the same page about that.LeBron had some stinkers against Boston in 2009. He was pretty bad overall against the Mavs in the 2010 Finals
