The Inside guys react to CHI vs. MIA + predict First-Round Eastern Conference matchups | NBA on TNT

for the second straight year final

playoff spot in the East came down to

the Bulls in heat in Miami a year ago

Miami used a late 15 to1 run to win by

11 tonight it was a 19 nothing run in

the first quarter that put him ahead to

stay and they Cruis by 21 makes you

really want to see these highlights

doesn't it yeah I thought it did and

here we go is DeMar d rozan one of my

favorite players in NBA Demar de rozen

after knocking out

Atlanta taking on Miami that

okay tell you what oh this kid has been

special man he's been great Tyler hero

again Miami playing without Jimmy Butler

in this yeah no way you can lose to them

Heywood High Smith up top it's all part

of this early 19 nothing this what

happened when you play at your speed all

the time you don't have play who you

playing against Duncan Robins just play

the course CH let play the course there

you go Ernie let's go golf play the

course Ro for

yeah mommy had way too much energy today

Highlight what a like my boy white

chocolate hero just pull up oh

pull D play Thompson that is Klay

Thompson

line in transition there again

yeah and then bam out of Bio from this

game was never closed after in the first

half quarter yeah you're right it's kind

of what I said in the uh well I had to

repeat it I had to speak

for our demographic 112 to 91 a near

triple double for Tyler herro 2410 and

nine hakz had 21 Kevin Lu had 16 in this

game bam 13 four and four it's a 11291

win we had 16 Miami gets number one

Boston and we get some post

game what was said from the captain to

his team in the last 48 hours for me it

was simple if you have any doubt or if

you scared get a

dog uh don't show up um cuz it doesn't

do anything but affect the people who

really believe that we can get a win the

playing games are fun you know I'd

rather not be in a playing game but

they're fun I have an incredible

appreciation you know

for have an opportunity just to make the

playoffs I have an appreciation for the

things you can't buy the things that you

have to earn you know we had to earn

this I think there was enough in that

lock room to compete what could have

been a very very difficult challenging

disastrous season those guys turned into

an opportunity to get to the playoffs

one game away and we didn't earn that

really from start to finish we we we

dealt with maybe a lack of continuity

but I think that was the initial goal

was to tr try to create some consistency

as your thoughts turned to Boston what

comes to mind it's going to be a dog

fight it's going to be in the mud it's

not going to be pretty basketball and

that's usually how it's been uh when we

see that

[Applause]

team and yeah they see each other a lot

this will be the third straight year

that the Celtics and heat meet in the

postseason uh Eastern Conference Finals

the last two years Miami won last year

Boston won the year before and um

Celtics took all three during the

regular season over the uh Miami Heat um

so are we ready to do this in the

he said yes we are CU I think there's

two series okay we're here all I'm

saying why start with him so he's so

anxious I didn't say that all do hey

motor mou hold on one second man okay

let's see the East bracket and and then

let's way to go Keith all right see the

good job dzel when is Jimmy coming back

he's not so at all it's no he'll be on

vacation after these first four games

Boston and Miami Boston quick quick New

York

Philadelphia oh we I we already heard

what you said the other day damn we

already heard what you said the other

day Philadelphia yeah that's what you

said the other day Milwaukee Indiana

Indiana Cleveland

Orlando oh my God hurry up Orlando

Orlando okay all right

Shaq

Celtics Miami Miami over wait wait when

is Jimmy coming back Boston Bost he not

coming back Boston Boston Boston yeah he

not coming back he done for the year

yeah all right Boston couple of weeks

okay he done for the year New York

Philadelphia Philly Joel and

B Milwaukee Indiana

Indiana Cleveland Orlando Orlando Magic

way to cheat off my paper again I never

cheat off you

yes Boston Miami

Boston New York

Philadelphia

Nicks Milwaukee Indiana Milwaukee what

you know yanas ain't playing right well

we don't know what his status is right

now and even doc hasn't even ruled him

out yet okay okay Cleveland Orlando

Cleveland all right Orlando next year is

their year I'm going in my op I'm going

B Boston I'm going New York what I'm

going see the Indiana Milwaukee is tough

why it just is they beat them with

Yiannis they just driving down the

street just pick it Ernie be confident

it's only hour and a half drive going

Milwaukee all right and I'm going

Cleveland okay there you go there you go

that was exciting wasn't it yes it was

if we had Graphics it would have been

better the New York Philly is an

interesting series chuckster The

Cleveland to me but I'm asking you I'm

asking you about New York Philly well so

for me it depends it depends on than you

Avery it depends on J

embiid's uh Health he he's been laboring

but the advantage the Sixers have Maxi

Harris buddy Hill Reed those other guys

they can play against the Knicks they

don't need Joel to be dominant those

other guys can play against the Knicks

the problem with the Knicks is I don't

know who they second best scorer going

to be after the Bronson well I mean I

don't know if they going to be able to

score now Brun has been fantastic all

year D vinzo goingon to get you 15 but I

don't know Hart's going to get you

somewhere but I don't know if they can

score enough points I think the way you

beat the next you got put a lot of

pressure on Brunson you got to trap him

off the pick and roll make him get rid

of who who who's able to do that against

on in Philly like trop Brunson no I'm

not saying that Philly couldn't win I'm

saying that's not happening you know

like they do like the switch so and

instead of switching immediately stay on

them trap him a little bit make him get

rid of the ball and and you know for

Joel and beat Chuck I agree with you I

don't know who the second best score for

the Knicks is either but Joel and beat I

know he's laboring like to see him take

more high percentage shots rather than

shooting no jumpers I'd put him in the

pick and row of every single player if

I'm the Knicks who you said I put

whoever Joel is guarding whoever Joel is

guarding I'm going to put him in the

pick I'm Joel though in the post nobody

he's he's a ter I think overall you you

said double double Brunson I would put

that's why I would put whoever Joel is

guarding I'm going to make him play

defense to move laterally I'm going to

test that knee and his conditioning

that's my only concern with the Sixers I

think that Philadelphia is a very

talented team obviously with Jolan be

however I think the Knicks scorers you

saying who's going to be a second score

they have two three four five they have

Committee of guys that can get 15 points

and they don't struggle to get 15

points the question has always been

could they ever have the best player on

the floor to me and Brunson has improved

to a point where he will be the best

player on the floor in certain games in

the series he will without doubt be the

best and arguably the hardest God guy to

God which that was not the case last

year or the year before Nick's move on

in my maxi got to compete with Brunson

and he will he I'm saying he can't

Bronson can't get 38 and he get 15 or 20

he's got to be competitive but I'm

telling you buddy Hill Tobi Harris those

guys I got to step up Kelly Kelly Kelly

UB I think all those guys can play they

they're they GNA play they gonna beat

the Knicks in my opinion even with a

hobble Joel embiid Knicks took three out

of four in the regular season embid did

not play in three of those games they

also had the one game this season season

in which both teams scored under 80

7973 sixer

win on come on J stop

it come on got to pick somebody

everybody know you bad luck

Chuck

BLC hey a brand new Shon is next
