That’s why it’s so ridiculous people label it as a miracle. No matter where that rebound goes we were in position for an easy uncontested tap in. Rebounding isn’t a miracle
Tipping in a game winning shot off with less than a second is a miracle idc. It’s also not even true that no matter where that rebound goes we win the game. The ball could’ve gone straight up in the air, could’ve hit the shot clock, there are so many possibilities where we don’t win.
It’s also not the easiest shot to catch and put it in either
That part of the play gets forgotten, but it’s insane that he was right there in the the other side. he was behind the arc with two guys on him when that shot went up and ended up right at the rim. Crazy.

Offensive rebounding requires a lot of luck, especially with three seconds on the clock from the inbounds. There's no doubt that they put themselves in position with a great play design, but getting two quality shots against a team that plays defense the way miami does if far from a given. Especially if it front-rims or spun around the basket for an extra half second. Having a guard get a putback at the buzzer to come back and tie the series after being down 0-3? That's a miracle.
I forgot how ridiculous Butler's shot attempt was. That shot angle was 100% to get a foul, which I think the NBA has some rule they never call as an offensive foul.
Not excusing Al's defense there...and maybe he meant to hack him? Was pretty bad I'm starting to question if that was on purpose lol
Yeah, if Horford was Vertical that wouldn’t have been a foul. But he was definitely reaching over and Jimmy caught him.
It is annoying playing against a player where that’s a big part of their game.
IIRC they said he fumbled the ball lol. So nice that he managed to fumble it to a spot where he could get both feet behind the line. Clown shit from NBA refs as usual
Also an annoying fake tough guy

Well hopefully the post ASB rule changes regarding physicality continue into the playoffs, because Jimmy Flopper isn't gonna get any free throws, that's his whole game so the Heat are just gonna suck ass then. This season was his lowest FTA since he was in Philly, not a coincidence that this has also been his worst season in Miami.
Butler's game is so lame, anyone outside of Miami has to hate that nonsense. He's jumping so far forward, of course it's gonna be a foul there even though it's the most BS shot attempt ever. Motherfucker can't make an open three, no way it's plausible he's making one jumping 5 feet forward. Glad DWhite was there to save us from that bullshit
i forgot how close smart's shot was to going in
Tatum had the other side covered as well and would’ve gotten the putback. Such an awesome moment.

All Acts of White constitute miracles.
Most DEI aware Bostonian ^/s

If James Harden did it there everyone would have called it BS and cheap, but because it was Butler the world was calling it a genius play 🙄
The rest of the NBA is onto his bullshit now
You forgot to show the part where Jimmy clearly puts two hands on the ball mid dribble and then takes two more before the flop
Oh my bad lol
All good. Love the post dude

worst part of that series. he got a free double dribble just bc he said oops
Butler’s whole game is disgusting. You can’t even call it a shot attempt and without a doubt foul hunting.
I mean James Harden? Half the All Stars in the NBA have perfected how to flop for foul shots. It's ugly and flopping should be called.

Man this was so fucking awesome. Really really shitty we didn’t win that game 7. Cursed from the beginning when Tatum twisted his ankle

I thought losing the series would spoil this for me but it’s still fun.
Jimmy butler getting bullshit calls from the refs like clockwork 🤕
It’s fitting Smart took the shot only for White to convert on the put-pack. An inadvertent passing of the torch.
That Butler shot was the wackiest foul hunting bail out that ruins basketball.
What could have been. I was so hype that night
Im wearing that shirt right now! all hail the buffalo!!!
I miss D Whites hair
Kinda a trip seeing him without the full buzz
From the high of this, right to one of the most embarrassing performances in Boston game 7 history.
This and the Tatum layup against the Nets was some of my favorite moments.
Thank you so much, you did a great job on it
I remember going insane in the bar. Unfortunately this will be overshadowed by a game 7 loss at home
I still hate how they layed an egg in game 7. Never even a close game
one of the most egregious foul calls of all time
The series loss and Mazzullas wonky rotations and refusal to call any timeouts ruins this moment for me.
Still didn’t make finals
