Butler has been the alpha-male this playoffs. I think LA gets serious and wins the next 2, but wow, was he good last night.

Nice little 40 point triple double. What a beast.

I think the Heat might be up to something 🧐

I honestly think Jimmy and the Heat can tie this thing up 🔥

IF BAM COMES BACK THE LAKERS ARE IN BIG TROUBLE!

I hope you are right, but I think they need Bam to make that happen.  Olynk played well, but AD was not great in game 3.  When he uses his size to the max extent the Heat really struggle inside.  Bam evens it up some.

If the Lakers win can we unban bnickle for 1 day? Or maybe we could install a live cam of him during the game?

Yesssss! I'm sure he's loving this.

I hope the Heat wins tonight so we get an extra game or two.  That plus I don't like the Lakers.

Butler another triple double.

 

Heat holding on,  Up 8 in the      4th

The Lakers making a run, now down 3

That was a great basketball game. Thought the Lakers were going to pull it out when they went up with 5 minutes left. Had Lakers in 6, but I certainly wouldn't mind a game 7.

I was flipping back and forth between baseball and game 6 all night, but the showdown between LBJ and Butler was something that will be remembered.  I think the Lakers get it done, but the Heat deserve so much credit for how hard they played.  In a series with James and AD, Butler has at least been their equal and at times out performed them.  No small accomplishment

Duncan Robinson was terrific last night.  Not only did he work his ass off for shots, he stood up to Howard and AD.  For an undrafted player, he has become a key member of a Finals team.
