Well, the Miami Heat lost to the Boston Celtics in game 2. From poor defense to awkward shot selection to wild Celtic runs, I cover it all here… So here are some takeaways from this one… #1: Oh, so a run happened. 60 to 21. When hearing those numbers, you may be thinking, what do […]
The Miami Heat kicked off the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night, and it didn’t start in ideal fashion. As I will discuss, things weren’t clicking on both ends of the floor in the first half. Emphasis on first half. The second half was an entirely different game. Gabe Vincent to […]
So, the Eastern Conference Finals are officially set. A rematch of the bubble ECF between the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics will kick off on Tuesday in Miami at FTX Arena. But you aren’t here for location updates, I’m here to get right into the specifics of the series. Before the game 7 was […]
The Miami Heat officially finished off their series against the Philadelphia 76ers in 6 games, but there were pretty much 3 mini series within this match-up. The first two game slate was its own adventure. No Joel Embiid meant the total focus was on the perimeter guys in James Harden and Tyrese Maxey, which fell […]

The Miami Heat entered game 5 against the Philadelphia 76ers with a lot of pressure. Almost game 7 like in terms of the winner of this game being close to series deciding. And well, they rose to the moment. All rallying behind Jimmy Butler yet again, and now they lead the series 3-2, 1 win […]
Physicality, blitzing, elimination. Those have been the primary keys from the 76ers in terms of stopping Tyler Herro after he dominated in games 1 and 2. It has now turned into a best of 3 series, since it’s the first team to grab two wins. The formula appears to be rather simple: don’t shoot 17% […]
The Miami Heat played a pretty similar ball game in game 4 that they played in game 3, in terms of the outside shooting from the supporting cast. Jimmy Butler was outstanding in all departments, but simply he was it for Miami through most of this game. Now, it’s all tied up 2-2 heading back […]
The Miami Heat came out flat. Let me rephrase: the Miami Heat came out extremely flat. They did a good enough job defensively, but the offense caused Philly to overtake Miami in game three. Jimmy Butler came out a little rough, but turned it around for a pretty complete game overall. But as I’ll touch […]
