NBA season 2019/20

Offensive rebounds and 3s were the problem for the Heat. Lakers as a team played well down the stretch.
Real shame we aren’t seeing Dragic out there instead of the rubbish play Nunn is putting in.

Lakers had 10 offensive rebounds to Heats 7, defensive rebounds were even. Dont think that was a deciding factor. And 3's were pretty much even also, 36% vs 34%?
To me the Heat just don't have the offensive weapons to challenge a really good Lakers defence. Jimmy is everyone's darling right now, but the truth is that he is limited. We saw that when he knew he had to shoot the 3, and couldn't hit it.
They definitely missed GD. While I like Herro and Duncan, there is almost zero history of rookies and 2nd year guys lighting up the finals from the outside.

@voodoo in a close game 14 v 11 on made 3s is a key difference. And it was more when the O boards occurred. Heat narrows lead and then Rondo or someone snags one and bucket.
Defence was good too. But I thought Heat D was pretty good also.
-
Also it’s strange with Jimmy on the 3 because this season he is really down on attempts and even more so since the bubble.
Just two years ago at the wolves he was attempting 4.5 a game and shooting it a pretty respectable 38%. Something has happened there.
-
LBJ about to join Horry and Salley as the only players to win an NBA title with 3 different teams.
-
The Heat refuses to go away and are making a game of it.
Lakers let the heat get away early in the 2nd but have pegged it back to 60-56. Jimmy is a mutha fucking gangsta! He may never win a championship but to me, he's proven he's a franchise player. 22 - 6 - 6 is what you need from your best player going into the half with the series on the line. I was worried he was going to get ejected for trying to lift Howard after a bit of a set to. But calmer heads prevailed, thankfully.
Lebron doing Lebron. 21-3-4. Late in the second lakers picked up their defence.

@raznomore it’s a good game. Kendrick Nunn has finally come into the series and being more aggressive like we see before the bubble.

@ACT-Crusader Herro is horribly off
@raznomore Bam needs to fire up. Nice last 30 seconds of the quarter for him.
-
Jimmy Buckets getting some help from his friends. Duncan and Kendrick played well.
Lebron had a massive game but Lakers needs AD to be healthy plus one more behind KCP firing.

I thought they would have marked this game to win after extra rest. Now they are going to have to do it over again

They bought the Mamba uniforms and everything. Love a good underdog win.

Cracking game, best of the finals so far. Green missed his chance to be the modern day Kerr/Paxson. Morris is a corpse. KCP was way too aggressive. AD has a peaheart.
Jeez Robinson killed them and Butler was a stud.
We couldnhave a series back if AD is hobbled. Noise of Dragic making progress also.

@voodoo man I had flashbacks of Robert Horry hitting that top of the key 3pt when Green caught that pass and shot.
Miami D on that play was very good - don’t let Bron beat with a shot, force him to pass.

It wasn't a perfect pass, but Green still had 8ft of space. You cant ask for a better look. He was open for a 2nd crack too if Morris had tapped it back to him
