They have about $12 coming off the books and then they could be looking to spend more since they didn't have a huge budget last year [once the bigger contracts got moved]

Would something like FVV-Dinwiddie-Bridges-KAT-Claxton draw a crowd for Bklyn? I suppose if they win it would. That's definitely a playoff team.

Nice to see Duncan Robinson seemingly remembered how to shoot again. But even with him pitching in 9 points on 3/4 from 3 to go along with Jimmy’s 24, they’re still down by 5. Someone will need to step it up for them because Butler is already starting to look gassed after that ridiculous first quarter. Bam getting in foul trouble early didn’t help.

Jimmy is so friggin good.

ninjacookies · 04-24-2023, 07:54 PM

Heat just can't seem to close the gap. Loss of Herro was huge. They really have no reliable secondary scoring. This was supposed to be Bam's opportunity to step up in that role....but I'm not entirely sold he'll ever be ready to take that next step (I was really big on him the last 2 seasons).

He is! Which is why I PC him…and Giannis! My 3 favorite players are D Rose, Giannis, and Jimmy Buckets. My 2012 gold Prizm is one I just can’t let go of Jimmy.

A Dame/Mikal/DDR/Claxton core should be Top 4 in the conference if Harden leaves - and even if he doesn't.

pingbling23 · 04-24-2023, 08:51 PM

Heat with a crazy run to take the lead.

ninjacookies · 04-24-2023, 08:51 PM

Jimmy really finna do this?

So based.

pingbling23 · 04-24-2023, 08:57 PM

Jimmy buckets is playing so good they deserve this.

bigjbasketball · 04-24-2023, 08:57 PM

Jimmy. F’n. Butler.

Lawd hammercy.

That man has left earth.

Dayumn. Jimmy "Ice" Butler.

pingbling23 · 04-24-2023, 08:57 PM

This is what in the zone looks like.

Jimmy Butler is incredible!!!!

Despite Jimmy's performance, you gotta admit he gets a very friendly whistle

ninjacookies · 04-24-2023, 09:02 PM

Honestly unbelievable. Jimmy single handedly won them this series (95% probability) with an absolutely insane 4th quarter stretch.

Should his rc's be 20x cheaper than Ant or nah?

Such a turnaround from 2021 when Bryn Forbes outscored Jimmy in the 1st round sweep.

Giannis just got an and 1 giving bam 2 elbows to the face as bam was falling back trying to avoid any contact. I love Giannis but he gets the best ref treatment in the league.

Strangest plot twist - went from beating Buckets to beating his spouse.

Still unsure what I just witnessed. Actually, I'm sure now. I tuned out for an Ebay break when they were down 10. So apparently I missed some pretty crazy heroics, because nobody else on that box score pops out.

KhalDrogo · 04-24-2023, 09:06 PM

Two games for a bruise. Think Giannis and the Bucks regret that now?
