Raps certainly didn't miss him... especially with Powell and Anunoby improving.

Miami is a few pieces away from being the best they can be.

Ultimately, Herro played garbage defensively (and his shot selection was BAAAAAAD in the finals too) and Jimmy just burned out all of his energy. A lot of issues that I saw were the line-ups Miami chose to use and yes, being unlucky with injuries. Still, they should move Bam to PF in Lakers match-ups and look for a traditional big man. If Cousins is 50% of what he used to be and healthy he'd be worth a look but I'm sure there are more options.

Biggest concern next season is the Warriors coming back and the Nets experiment.

And the Lakers defense limited Robinson/Herro & Miami's 3pt shooting very well throughout the series. Still a fantastic effort from Miami.

And y'know good job Lebron et al.

Totally. They need to re-sign Dragic. Either way, Miami is going to be a force for years. Goes to show it's not just talent, but also culture, that's the key developing a team.

Looking forward to kicking their ass next year! They are a worthy nemesis!

I was thinking it's kind of hard to predict how this Miami will be doing in the future. In a way they got here too early (Bam, Herro, Robinson, Nunn are all players who will surely keep improving), but they also relied heavily on vets who might not have this opportunity again. I hope Butler can have another season or two like this, and I hope they re-sign Dragić, and that he can have another season at least close to this level as well. Crowder I thought also was perfect for this team.

Should be a fun next season... Just hope we get it in!

Haha, unlikely given we're a city of 4 million. Although we do have a decent-sized record collection, and we live on the first floor. Sherman Oaks?

Chinatown, that would have been incredible though.

It's still incredible to me how Heat managed to get to Game 6 with Dragić almost completely out, and Bam missing 2/3 of the series and playing at like 70% the rest. I thought this was just as inevitable as the 2018 finals after that Game 1.

I wasn't able to watch the game, but god damn it I am so happy. There were way too many garbage "it doesn't matter if Bam/Dragić are injured, it's a sweep either way".. takes on the internet. I fucking love Jimmy.

I still don't think Heat can win another one without either Bam or Dragić (it seems like even if they play, they won't be near 100%), but at least it puts a little life in this series.

I just hope they can keep it up and make it a series and not a gentleman's sweep.

This was shaping out to be the worst finals series since 2007. Not anymore.

Wait, really? Three of Miami's starters got injured in the same game? I worked last night and didn't see anything. All I heard was LA won. But wow, that totally sucks. AfterHours's Lakers in 5 prediction now seems inevitable. Might even be Lakers in 4.

Dragić got hurt in the second quarter, played on for a bit, but then didn't show up in the second half. Torn plantar fascia, likely out for the series.
Jimmy turned his ankle near the end of the first half, IMO looked a lot less aggressive in the second half. Will definitely play in the next game.
Adebayo made contact with Howard in the third, hurt his shoulder (that has been bothering him in the Celtics series), went out and hadn't returned. They'll reevaluate him, I'm assuming he will play.

I got up at 3am to watch this, a Dragić fan as a Slovenian, but also rooting for Heat in general these playoffs, this has been a very painful game to watch. It just got worse and worse as it went along.

This should've been an exciting NBA playoffs, but injuries (POR, BOS, PHI, IND, now MIA) and coaching mismanagement (PHI, MIL, LAC) have taken away so many potentially great series. That's too bad. I hope Miami can recover and make it interesting, but I'm not counting on it. Oh well, on to the MLB playoffs.

I don't want Jimmy to keep playing on that bad ankle when he's had a career renaissance.
