All time performance by Jimmy Buckets. What I'm interested in...the last time we really saw him do this in a must win game...Game 5 against the Lakers in the 2020 Finals, he was EXHAUSTED in Game 6 and didn't have anything left in that blowout loss. Bam, Lowry, Oladipo...they're gonna have to step up big at home because you can't depend on Butler getting 40+ points again.
As a Raps fan, I miss watching those timely buckets by Lowry! Playoff Jimmy is no joke, the man is a certified bucket 🏀 💯 Huge win for the Heat in the Garden
Without Jimmy, Celtics may have genuinely swept the Heat. As a Tom Brady fan, Jimmy gave a Brady-esque effort despite the injuries, being down 2-3, and being counted out by the media. It's time Jimmy is with a team that wins a championship. Step it up Miami or hand him over to a team that deserves JB. He will win a ring but I'm afraid it's not happening in South Beach.
Someway somehow Aaron Nesmith needa be gettN back on the court he balled out when smart was out that one game forgot which series it was though hella blocks and everything defense gotta be added to that lineup they should have him and someone subbin in and out at least
I noticed something about the Celtics that may mess them up big time frfr unless they’re just a high energy team who does a ton of cardio THEY DONT sub anyone else in the game I don’t know if that because they can’t or what I don’t know what’s goin on with that but I remember when smart got hurt and was out a game there’s this one dude that can actually hoop he was kinda built up too and tall gettN chasedown blocks and everything he should be subbing with someone at least he has good defense honestly should be guarding Butler himself🆑 bad Coaching the Heat and warriors have backup that can ball too that’s finna make a difference way more in depth Tatum is a menace though they should have had at least another star on their team fasho I’d say Ja Morant Shai Alexander or Lamelo🔥🔥
Man... props to Butler. He willed this team to stay alive. So glad for a competitive game and not another blow out. I hope Game 7 is another battle like this one!
10 Years Apart, In Boston, Jimmy Butler and LeBron James had at least 45 5 5 on 60% Shooting to force a home game 7. You couldn't make this stuff up. What a performance from Butler

@Sac12 leBrick had a ton of Hall of Famers backing him up and was up 20 plus most of the game, Butler was out there injured and in a back and forth and showed more heart than LeBandWagon ever has
Big credits to Jimmy and the heat. Down the stretch, they made clutch plays, while the Celtics were shitting themselves. This was the heat's best performance in this series so far. Both teams and their respective stars seem to be very inconsistent. Does Jimmy need another 40pt game to win the series and will he deliver? Game 7 will be interesting.

Man, you have to give the Miami Heat a lot of credit for the way they were responding to the challenges of not being fully healthy. Now, Game 7 is going to be really good to watch come Sunday
And returning back to this comment, Jimmy deserves a LOT of credit for keeping the Heat in the game and for making it exciting. That 3 point attempt can't be blamed on him. That is a symptom of the Heat not being ready. JB was ready to win a championship.
@MJ DRIPPY 💧 i hope. i am not a heat fan, im a raptor fan so you can get why im rooting for the heat, kyle lowry and butler getting a ring. i love the heat culture and ive watched this team the whole year and been saying since the start of the season that miami can win the whole thing, people laughed at me. its great to see them come here thru so much adversity. i think they can win, they have the experience and mental toughness over the celtics. but lets be honest the celtics have more talent. so its really going to come down to 1 man, butler. butler HAS to have 35+ point game and the heat HAVE to contain tatum and brown for AT LEAST 1 half like last game. you cant really stop them the entire game with their size and ability to shoot over anyone of the heats players who plays in the playoffs except maybe bam. vincent has been careless at times, i want to see robinson today, idc if he doesnt plau defence he creates so much spacing on the offensive ened for butler and if he gets hot then the game is over before the celtics know it. however make sure we play strus starter minutes too. i think a 35-13 min share between the two is fair. lowry has to step up again with at least 8-10 assists, push the pace with the throw aheads and known down his 3s. if the heat make 3s and butler is scoring i dont see the celtics winning. however as of now the celtics are still the favourites because of their talent, and idk if the heat can do all of the above and deny that talent. we will have to see... MAY THE BEST TEAM WIN
Been a jimmy fan since he played for my home team when he got drafted I knew he was gone be raw always had killer instinct you can see it in his eyes 💯
@Cedric Perry Lowry is dealing with a hamstring since the beginning of the playoffs that’s why he missed games this postseason but bam definitely need to step up
But Lowry has to shoot better than 5 for 14 in order for Miami to advance to the finals. Jimmy was fantastic, but even he probably will not duplicate 47 points on Sunday. Bam has to contribute better also. I barely noticed that he was on the court in the second half.
@k gonzalez I feel real bad for you guys, man, the days of Kobe and Magic, and OMG poor Kobe :( the saddest thing what happened to that great man...He was better than all of them, I truly believe it, no player brought more fear into the hearts of the Celtics fan than Kobe...May he rest in peace

@VerdeDifferent JB is very good. Derrick White was a great pickup for Boston. Miami is kinda small & don't have the offensive firepower the Celtics have. From what I've seen, they're defense(which is great) won't be enough to beat the Dubs, imo. Tatum Will get a ring! 💯

Going keep it 💯 I'm in complete and utter shock that my Heat won this game. I was ready to bury them and put them in the ground after that game 5 embarrassment. Props to coach Spo for keeping them believing when a fan like me give up on them 👏🏿

@Mason Bee Actually, I live in Milwaukee. After your Celtics crushed us in 7, I just hope for a good ECF. Boston is still the most talented in the East. But versus G.S.? Good luck, my man. First, it'll be a good game today!
Butler played like Jordan in this game. Ice in his veins. Nut the key was Lowry, big shots everytimw they needed it. I pick the heat to win game 7 at home.
@Mason Bee lol the Lakers? They didn't even enter to the playoffs, and they have like 5 stars, That's a trash team. #LakersFruitLoops#GoHeat!!#LebronwillbesenttoDetroit

Both teams have always been about structure and greatly coached. Heat play heat basketball they have all the skilled players that command on offense and defend pretty well. And Boston has that strength that all of there starters can do damage along with great ball movement and chemistry. Game 7 can go either way
As INCREDIBLE as jimmy was today, i think the shot of the night came from Lowry to tie the game when the celtics were up 94-97. If he misses that i think the momentum totally switches. He has to have another game like this in game 7
Miami needed Jimmy to pull a game six 2012 LeBron performance and that’s exactly what he did. Even more epic when you realize it was 10 years ago and the heat was in the exact same situation back in 2012

Heat fan but these are The best two teams in the league rn. Two defensive juggernauts. Bos/Mia is slugging it out and whoever makes it out should win it all. Go heat!
I just love Miami Heat!, Thank you for shutting up the Naysayers, the doubters and the Media who already counted them out. This team is really something, People slept on them all because they have no superstars (only Jimmy is the legit Star) but time and time again they have proven that they can take and silence any team even if that team is loaded with superstars. Already shut down Embid, Harden and now able to shut down Bostons two superstars and playing full strength at home is just amazing.👏 They are a great example and model that anybody in the world (including YOU! - ordinary people can rise to the top, if you work hard, have patience, be resilient, do your best and thru teamwork having the right people on your side. You can WIN!!) Debunking the notion that you have to collect superstars to compete for the title and ring when in fact You don't need Superstars to WIN! That's Miami Heat🔥. I hope and pray they Win at Home in Game 7. Heat FTW!💪
@Hay Hay Warriors have never lost a playoff series when Curry, Klay, and Green have started every game buddy. And this was against better teams than what y'all have on your roster. You're the one whose delusional. Y'all literally have the same team from the bubble and y'all got smacked by the Lakers. What more if you play the Warriors LMAO.
@Hay Hay me too. I originally had Celtics in 7 because I felt they'd outlast the heat, but they proved they aren't done in any way, shape, or form. Also ur prediction about the heat shutting down klay and curry will be put to the test once wiggins, poole, porter, Gary payton, maybe even looney and green get into the action on offense. Like I said we'll see what happens. I'm just hoping for a great game 7.
@Manu Prasad all I'm getting at is heat was considered done and analyst and ppl around already considered Boston a done deal. It's a great series but after this game 6 win, Boston lost all momentum. They can still win but I like heat odds.
This was one of the best games🔥📸🏀 I have seen from the Miami Heat. Not only was this Game 6 memorable, but thanks to Lowry ⭐and Jimmy Butler 🍿👀🎉situations got ugly for Boston. It's not necessarily the point differential of a lead but how Miami handled their overall 💪🎈business. My favorite part of this matchup was PJ Tucker's rip away steal from Jayson Tatum. Guys, PJ 💪is the toughest player in league for a reason. Really enjoy the duo of Max Strus and Vincent too. Anytime these sharp shooters have ball 🏀people usually know their going to make huge buckets. Their crazy ⭐⭐⭐⭐outside distance from three is a gift that everyone wants to have. Kind of reminds me of Jordan Poole and Kuminga combination. If I had to go with a squad Boston would be running out of time on this fantastic Heat team. The one thing that worries me about Celtics is can🤔😬 they really close this series out in 7 full games?? Heat are terrific and last night they just proved who the better organization actually is. Denzel Washington "Out of Time" movie 1 of my all time favorite movies. South Beach not going away if Miami has something to say. Round of applause Pat Riley, Zo, and Spoel.🥳
@Chotchbag McGee Seems like somebody is being rude. Have you even watched the series or are you just assuming? The Heat has already loss twice at home in this series which means Boston is very capable of winning on the road dumb dumb. So again, I still believe the Heat can get this one at home despite Boston's chances.
Amazing effort by the Heat who looked dead in the water after the Game 5 collapse. Seems like the Celtics were ready to move on to the finals a little prematurely. 😂 Not really a fan of either team but this has been a very wild series -- even when one team or the other lays an egg. Butler, of course, really impressive, especially considering he's been having problems with a bad knee. Game 7 should be epic.
As a Raps fan, I miss watching those timely buckets by Lowry! Playoff Jimmy is no joke, the man is a certified bucket 🏀 💯 Huge win for the Heat in the Garden
I want the heat to win. The disrespect that they were getting from everywhere. All the pundits making it seem like a foregone conclusion that Boston gonna win
I never understood their comments either because the Heat are an excellent defensive team, they have playoff experience, a championship winning coach and Jimmy Butler is a superstar. That being said I DID NOT think they would win this game but what a show of heart from these guys to push it to game 7. I hope they take the series.
@Frank Nitti at the end of the season the heat went on a 4 game loss streak and played pretty badly. they then came back to win 4 in a row to end the season, thats what i was expecting from this game too. they dont just go out quietly
What a game by both teams im a laker fan so nothing would make me more happier than to see the Celtics lose but what a game by both teams and Jimmy put on a masterful display

Ima A bulls fan but im a dan wherever jimmy goes! I want him to win but if he does or not hes done much mor than any other supertar in the last 3-4 years
Oh my god game 7 what an incredible performance by Miami I for sure thought this series was over but Jimmy and company proved otherwise. Anything can happen in a game 7 I am super excited.
Butler played absolutely amazing tonight but I don't know if we can expect the same performance for game 7. He laid it all out in this one and has to be exhausted and feeling it today and will need more help in the next one. If Herro can return for game 7 I think the Heat have a legit chance of winning at home.
@Brandon Dorcas I really wanted Miami to reach The Finals. This was such a letdown, a real bummer. This is gonna sting for a while. Always winners and losers. This time we're the losers. Feel bad for Jimmy, he's given his all to this team. Dang it, last night really sucked!
@Brandon Dorcas Oh, that's cool. I didn't know you were rooting for the Heat? Yeah, Jimmy Butler played his heart out, other players were on and off. I thought Tyler Herro would really make a difference, but he didn't do anything. It's really hard to win in the NBA. Boston was the better team. I give them props.
@Brandon Dorcas It didn't work out. It really sucks. I knew it was gonna be tough, but I truly believed the Heat could win. Boston was the better team. Congrats to the Celtics and their fans. Celtics are the real deal. Beat the GSW. Show them what the East is all about!!
Do y'all see what my heat team can do. Playing with blood, sweat and tears. But I can't knock on Boston. They play with pride and work very hard to get there and this is one of the best series. Hands down
I've gotta tip my hat to the Heat. I didn't think they had enough gas left in the tank to win game 6 in Boston and I definitely didn't think Buttler and Lowery had those games left in them. They definitely proved me wrong. This was a rough loss for the Celtics and it could come back to haunt them, we'll see though tomorrow.
I really want to see Jimmy get a ring. Either team deserves to be in the finals. That’s what makes game 7 so special! This is by far the best 2022 playoff series.
Meanwhile the sixers chose not only Simmons over Butler from a team personnel decision (not including the other better options in Simmons draft year), but they also chose to trade (3) 1st round picks for the right to choose Fultz over Tatum. Outstanding management choices.
JIMMY BUTLER AFTER AN ELIMINATION GAME 6, SHOWED THAT HE IS THE BEST PLAYER IN THIS SERIES!! Especially considering all the people that said the HEAT WERE DONE AFTER LOSING GAME 5!! This was Boston’s best chance and they BLEW IT!🔥
