We really went from Golden State running through everyone to a Nuggets and Heat Finals. THIS is what PARITY looks like
The Miami Heat look like the 1996 Bulls
and nerds still deny this sport being
scripted.
@@sac1211 lad you’re in everyone’s comments shut up
@@sac1211 Then why do you watch?
@@sac1211 how is the nba scripted dude? Are u implying that these players rehearse the exact way they’ll play beforehand? Or do u mean that the refs favour a team over the other?
I think he’s obviously a Hall of Famer already
If Jimmy wins the championship and finals mvp he’s a GUARANTEED hall of famer in my eyes
I'm absolutely done with the NBA this is the most rigged playoffs I've seen. Lakers are somehow down to the same Nuggets that lost to the warriors last year but the lakers beat those same warriors in 6 this year. And then the heat somehow beating the #1 seed bucks and the Celtics who were just in the finals last year when they lost a play in game as the #8 seed. This is an absolute mockery and disgrace to the sport of basketball #DefundAdamSilver.
@@sac1211 i think your just salty bro 🧂 😂
@@sac1211😂😂😂😂
@@sac1211 Bros in denial
Already is a guarantee and he not winning this year nuggets are to dominate and talent wise they have them beat it would take a miracle to beat the nugs
If Jimmy wins the title, he’s gonna have the greatest ring ever. It’ll actually somehow bitch Dirk’s ring, cuz for them to not only beat the two title favorites, but also the 1 seed out west, too, meaning they’d have beaten both 1 seeds, and all 3 championship favorites going into the playoffs?! Nah, Jimmy got it at that point, bro
would probably be better then the rockets ring
@@jeddgangman4502 way better
@@jeddgangman4502 only because they were the eighth seed.
But it wasn't that difficult. Yeah, they basically went through the top seed in the East and now have Boston on the cusp of elimination. But they never faced adversity like the 95 Rockets or the 11 Mavericks faced, which I think would rank higher in terms of difficulty. By no means is this disrespecting Miami's run because if you get to the finals as an eighth-seed without being tested, you deserve to be there.
Jason Tatum is not that guy. The end
Idk man, I think my video still aged poorly imo
Jason Taytum is that guy, but he is not quite at Giannis, Curry, or Healthy Kawhi level yet. This can change if he wins a chip or MVP tho. Every Star has off games.
He is that guy not his fault the script was for him to lose nba turned the magnets off.
@@rustybuckets Well it depends what we mean by “that guy”.
@@danielgreene4437 But he needs to be “that guy” to be MVP, no?
I really hope the Heat win the championship this year as I personally believe that no one deserves it more than Jimmy Butler.
Yeah but also, Jokic is prolly hungry for a title cause Embiid got the MVP. It's going to be a wild finals for sure.
@@pepe9565 jokic would probably want to win it even tho he is 28 west is tough
@@pepe9565 nuggets would be contenders and like the bucks and Celtic in the east tho has contenders
The Nuggets and the Heat were the two most fun teams to watch in the bubble. Such competitive games and moments. The finals will have the same energy and competitiveness. Butler and Jokic are the best players in this postseason and both are hungry for their first championship. Can't wait.
@@sulwhale317128 is your absolute physical prime
The way the Heat stomped both the Cs and the Bucks makes me appreciate NY and Brunson A LOT.
Jalen Brunson actually outperformed giannis middleton brown and tatum. Imagine if Julius Randle wasn’t such a ballhog…
@@icupnibba3533Yeah, I still wonder why they pay that guy
Brunson was phenomenal against the Heat he can't miss a shot esp on his mid range. But still enough to win against the Heat.
EXACTLY!! This!!!
I think that had a lot to do with Jimmy’s ankle but yeah the knicks defense did a much better job keeping the heat role players from getting hot
This will be the most legendary playoff run if the heat win it all
To bad they not winning nuggets gonna spank them they not gonna play around with them like the Celtics 😂
Most scripted one too.
They won't but it doesn't matter. It's still the most impressive run I've ever seen
Similar to their first championship
@@sac1211 Lol everyone was saying that if the lakers and celtics made it ☠️
We were so close to a mighty Boston team vs LBJ & the Lakers... a historic rivalry.
So glad instead we (probably) get the best team in the league getting a chance to earn a much deserved ring for a franchise that has never won one-and an 8 seed with half the players being undrafted, led by a player who at one point in his childhood was homeless, overcoming his adversities with sheer determination and work ethic. It's glorious.
Edit: lmao I spoke too soon. Boston had something to say about this. Well, the narratives would be less compelling imo, but the games would much more electric. I think Boston matches up better against Denver, so maybe it won't be the public stomping I'd expect Denver to deliver Miami (although a Miami upset would be a cool story).
Fr. And both teams and their superstars are just so driven to win, it’s all they care about and it’s refreshing af. Both teams have proved they can come back even if they’re down, both teams just have a bunch of dawgs in that even role and bench players are just firing and playing consistent. Really gonna be a great series
Mighty isn’t the word I’d use to describe Boston rn lol
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE RATINGS?! WONT SOMEBODY THINK OF THE FINALS RATINGS 😭😭
@@BigPurp9😂
@Wayne and the Heat/Denver have for sure earned it
As a laker fan I’m still upset we lost. But as a basketball fan, I absolutely love the nuggets Heat matchup for the sake of parity in the league.
its not over yet

You from the future?
@@forzer456 okay bandwagon
@@w.bi11yno one’s ever came back down 0-3
Duncan Robinson went from a top shooter who got a major bag, to completely unplayable, back to an elite shooter
it's a matter of confidence. tyler herro's injury somehow unlocked the other players on the their roster
@@genaldgalicia5834 literally the most overpowered power up ever
the fact that the Florida Panthers are doing the same thing in the NHL makes things even more wild
It really does! 😁😁😁😌😌👊👊✊✊👏👏👏
That's 1 win away, Miami beats Boston today in a very dominant fashion
That Knicks team wouldn't have been the 8 seed if they had played 82 that season. They just got off to a rocky start and frankly, Ewing getting injured helped them a ton to speed up the pace. Their defense was outstanding.
Showing once again that Ewing is not that guy
Was that Knicks team better than the 94 one that made the finals?
@@jonathanchavez4144 I think the 94 team was better. Ewing was pretty old by 99
Boston did not turn the series around in game 3 😂! Go Heat!
If we get a Nuggets vs Heat finals. I want the heat to win.
Me too, but who the fuck is stopping Jokic at his point? He made AD look like a toddler bro 😂
We know you hate the white man, you'll be crying lmao.
@@TooTrendyEntBam is going to give him way more heart and hustle, also way better at defending the perimeter actions than AD.
I’m good with either. My two favourite teams.
This reads as “I would want the Lakers to beat Miami.”
I dont blame anyone for not picking Heat for the playoffs, infact when they first lost the game againts Hawks I was like whats next for the heat. But now we are seeing the greatest 8th seed story in the NBA right now.
I know it's a completely different sport, but the 2012 LA Kings were an 8th seed when they won their first championship, they barely sneaked into the playoffs. They also went up 3-0 in every series and didn't lose on the road until game 5 in the Finals (10-1 playoff road record). They beat the President trophy winners (team with best regular season record) in the 1st round and swept the team with the best home ice record in the 2nd round. That was the craziest playoff run I'd ever seen.
I feel ya on that! 👊👊✊✊👏👏👏
indeed, that run was awesome story.
Their 2014 run was wild too! 3 game 7's on the road against 3 of the top 5 teams in the league (Chicago, Anaheim, San Jose) they came back from being down 0-3 against the Sharks in the 1st round. It was the longest playoff run in NHL history with multiple games going to OT and double OT in every round. They're the only team of my favorites that I've seen win championships in my lifetime and those runs were so amazing.
New ESPN article. Can we see two 3-0 comebacks at the same time.
WWE was seen as real when we were gullible and teens/children as we got older we realized there were scripts for entertainment, no organic outcomes. NBA is sadly the same way it sucks because this was the sport I grew up with and if I was a scriptwriter for them I would have Lakers and Celtics battle for the 18th but congrats to Denver and heat for the rigged finals appearances.
@@sac1211 You lost us at WWE
The Athletic actually did post such a thing
@sac1211 If it's rigged, wouldn't it be rigged for the best ratings and not for the 19th and 12th most valuable teams to potentially sweep the darlings of the NBA? The NBA would potentially deprive themselves of up to 6 games worth of ad revenue and marketing in the conference finals if the script was supposed to go this way.
@@sac1211 This is literally an idiotic comment.
1 game away now🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rusty making heat content… I thought the day would never come 😂
He ain't got no choice.
Regardless whether Jimmy wins the finals or not, what this man has been able to do with Miami since 2020 is 10X more respectable than anything the big 3 did with Miami from 2011-2014.
Winning it all with a superteam is nothing close to a mediocre team making the finals twice because all the players on the team have heart. I can genuinely say I've never seen this in the playoffs before. The Hawks did it in the regular season one time but doing it in the playoffs is crazy
All this shows is Spolestra's ability as a head coach to unlock players' hidden potential. He had done it his entire Head Coaching career. He has a way to elevate players to another level.
I mean that's your opinion, don't claim it as a fact lol
Lmao, you're still butt hurt over that
The Heat repeated, deal with it 😂
Can’t be compared. Way different expectations. And will produce very different results
"Beating the knicks was not hard" Except for the fact that the knicks were the only team to take them past 5 games so far? And they were 4 points away from forcing a game 7 on their home floor? Huh?
This dude had a “Miami heat stink” video a few months ago he’ll never understand this team
it wasn’t they we’re probably gonna win in 5 if jimmy butler didn’t get hurt in game 1 and lost in game 2
@@wickedeyecandy1182 and if Giannis doesn’t get hurt are you even a few games away from the finals. What if’s don’t mean a damn thing bro. Give my Knicks some credit, it’s that simple
@@malooch They got into the playoffs through the play in. At some point this season this team must have stunk. If not they would have been a top 3 seed. They definitely don't suck now though.
@@maloochwait, what exactly is wrong with saying Miami was shit a few months ago? They were literally an 8th seed with 0 major roster adjustments, unlike the Lakers. It's just that literally the entire team decided to turn up in the playoffs, especially Jimmy. That's not something you can predict
Heat up 3-0 now
When we win it all understand you have witness the greatest championship run of all time
Destroys 1995 rockets record
(I’m a heat fan) I believe the Heat blew the 7th seed on purpose. I don’t think it would’ve been good for us to see Boston in the first round but 2 rounds later after we’ve gotten a groove makes more sense.
That's so dumb lol. No they didn't. No one would ever do that. Anything can happen in a single elimination game. You're high
Nah they we’re definitely trying to win that game, if u watched it u could tell
They absolutely did. If they had won that play-in game, they'd have Boston round 1, Philly in the second and then the Bucks who would probably be well-rested after they breezed through their opposition. As opposed to either Philly or Boston who were presumably going to (and did) wear each other down.
Play 3 legit contenders on the way to the Finals or 1 and a half? Easy logic.
Smart by their organization to throw that play-in game.
You can’t be a heat fan if this is what you think. That is literally the antithesis of heat culture. Why would you ever think spo, Riley or Jimmy would allow them to lose on purpose.
After seeing how the Celtics beat the Sixers, I was surprised just how many people counted out the Heat in the series.
Exactly!!! 👊👊✊✊👏👏👏
As a fan of basketball before I’m a fan of the Boston Celtics, I’m happy for Jimmy and the Heat. I’ll be rooting for them in the finals.
Mattise Thuybulle to Michael Jordan made me laugh. Thats insane it is true.
Celtics fans did all that talking after the Heat-Bucks series just go out even sadder against the same team lol
If Jimmy wins this Chip he’s a top 30-20 player locked, if he doesn’t then top 40-30 definitely
But best of all, James Soften is out of the playoffs
thaank you, i been saying this for years. he's soft and a quitter.
The fact that Jimmy and Bam wasnt even leading the offense tonight shows how much more talent this Heat team have. I want none of that “on paper” sh*t
Exactly!!! 👊👊✊✊👏👏👏
1 game away from SWEEPING the second seed
I don’t like how you dismissed the Knicks series as if we didn’t give the heat their toughest series so far. Just seeing “Julius Randle” on a roster and not paying attention despite us pushing them to six games and outside of game 3, making them work for every game and winning only by single digits being “basketball analysis” is low as hell. Do better Rusty.
Nobody took the Knicks seriously. Except for Brunson and maybe Hart, nobody gives a damn or is worried about the Knicks 😂😂 Jimmy was hurt for like 2 games, delayed the inevitable. Don't tell him to do better, tell your franchise to do better
@@LilRick96 Jalen Brunson’s ankle was hurt the whole series, he received round the clock treatment for it, Caleb Martin caught a flagrant foul for trying to irritate it. You’re a casual.
@@brycetheoddball Casual my ass. NOBODY GAVE A FUCK ABOUT THE KNICKS. NOT ONE PERSON. The fuck we supposed to care about a franchise that hasn't done shit since 2013 and was knocked out the same round again, with a delusional ass fan base??? 😂😂 Franchise is just a around the clock failure. Embarrassed by the Hawks in 21 and Got up out of there by the Heat. Whoopdie doo
Rusty's content has been shit for the last year or two. If you went back to the early days where he had like 10-20k subs you could tell he did a lot of research for each video and actually watched games and supplemented it with stats. Those videos had passion behind them and it felt nice that I caught a NBA youtuber who was about to become big off of good content. For the last few years you can tell he box score watches a lot and just regurgitates reddit narratives while adding in clickbait. Rusty just reads simple facts out with no passion and repeats and beats a point to the ground to fit the 8 minute criteria. Like you can tell the way he says "shoutout to Rudy for editing this video and goodbye" he just wants to put videos out there. Thats why Rusty can shit out these crap videos daily and he won't ever reach the level of basketball analysis like Kenny or P from TTW cuz you can tell they watch so much basketball and put actual watchable content out.
KNICKS was the only team in the EASTERN CONFERENCE to take the MIAMI HEAT to a game 6 and the MIAMI HEAT squad was scared of BRUNSON dropping 41 on them and it it wasn't for the TURNOVER HEAT would be playing the KNICKS in game 7 that could have went either way so put some RESPECT in the NEW YORK KNICKS and stop 🛑 acting like MIAMI HEAT had it easy with the KNICKS which they didn't
I'm hearing a lot of backhanded compliments here.
It's fine. We're used to the disrespect.
Heat Culture.
Never will i have been so conflicted about a finals matchup. Been a huge jokic fan for years now, murray is so entertaining to watch, i like many other players on their team and they play beautiful basketball, its like poetry at times.
Became a huge butler fan during the bubble, the way they understand their roles and execute their roles and just play so damn hard to me is beautiful basketball too, albeit in a different way from the nuggets beauty.
I want jokic, murray and the boys to get one. But damn, i have so much respect for the heat franchise and the culture theyve created. And the way butler leads that team? He absolutely deserves it as well.
I mean cool, either way it will be a team id like to see win but also sucks that i cant fully support one of them lol. Hoping for a great finals matchup.
I want the Heat to win because Jimmy Butler isn't gonna get to many more chances at a ring while this nuggets team could be a team to fear for the next decade. I'm a Bulls fan so I might be a little biased tho.
@@jxmmy yeah that has crossed my mind as well. Nothing against the heat and i wouldnt be surprised if they make the finals again in the future. But i think we can all agree that the nuggets r much more likely to do so. Kinda like a "root for the underdog" thing for me.
And hey biased or not, butler is def a player worthy of support and this heat team is super deserving of some respect so not the worst way to let ur bias potentially play a part.
Spolstra winning with Jimmy Buckets and a bunch of Dudes from LA fitness. But Lebron needs more help tho.
4:37 Nah hell naw y’all owe us an apology. we was in the ECF last year with this same roster. same coach. and y’all know jimmy do his thing in the playoffs. then you got espn talm bout 3% chance. HUH?! naw we want an apology. 3-0 on y’all favorites👎🏾
No I do not dork
@@rustybuckets 🤡🤡🤡🤡 average bulls fan moment
Huh MAVS 2011 Was crazier Dirk defeated legend by legend every series
Wouldn’t say NY wasn’t difficult for Miami… gave them more losses than both the bucks and Celtics lol
Let me get this straight. These guys beat the Bucks in 5, then the Knicks manage to take 2 wins against the same team that completely crushed Milwaukee.
Now the Celtics are on the verge of getting swept but beating New York was easy? They put up the best fight so far. Check your bias at the door sir. Knicks nation will not accept this slander.
Welp i guess its joker for finals mvp and ama need that mvp refunded back to my boi the joker 😂😂😂 sorry embid
watching this after game 6 lol
Man idk whats wrong with Tatum, one game he plays like the reincarnation of Kobe a the next game the Heat is disrespecting him challenging him to shoot 3s and he still bricks shot after shot.
HEAT ALL THE WAY BABY!!!!!!!
ESPN analytics says Celtics 72% chance to win the series at 3-0 down. I think ESPN owes them an apology
God damn it Derrick White
Playoffs ain't the regular season....
I feel so bad for Celtics fans how did you guys hire the least competent Joe in America
second least competent. :D
They not really and 8 seed most of the players was injured during the season they really top 5 I mean they was the number 1 seed just 11 months ago
if jimmy gets a ring put him in the hof its only right
Mannnn my Cs are pathetic 🤦♂️😂 went from a top coaching staff to a bottom one after losing ime, hardy, and stoudamire. Really coulda had KD and now we gotta pay brown 300m. Best I can hope for is nick nurse and dame now
Why record before game 3? Everything you said just got turned up to 11!
If dame made it into the top 75, I think jimmy does too, they’re playoff resume is practically the same, except jimmy has a final appearance, and two conference finals.
Knicks gave the heat the most smoke yet you still disrespect lmao when will you respect us
Lmao this was recorded before their 3rd win today
ERICK SPO is a HOF and the best coach in the NBA
It crazy to think at this time. If Heat won the first play in tourament game, they could have knocked the celtics in the first round and then bucks would have progressed with healhy gannis. And it would have been a completely differnet playoffs in the east.
respect to the heat but your opinions and takes on the knicks are unnecessarily petty or shallow. They did better than any other team but your take was "oh they beat them easily"
Rusty can you please address all of the insane comments @sac 12 made in one of your second channel videos
5:28 Are the '81 Rockets part of the "plumber era"?
if jimmy butler wins a ring and obviously finals mvp he will go down in history as the greatest come back playoff run of all time
Knicks gave Miami by far their toughest test
The Celtics are just such a disappointment. They play like they're entitled to the finals and its sad. When things are going great they play well.
However this team has shown when they need to dig down deep and win when the times get bad, they constantly don't show up.
Instead of making any trades this team should get a therapist to figure out what the hell is going on with this team's mentality.
Also it'd do them well to just wave a white flag in game 4 to save themselves from any more embarrassment. Just give the fans a refund and ice cream. Absolutely sad.
What about Kawhi? He was offensively limited entering the league and became finals MVP. The media was comparing him to Jordan 4 years ago too.
Rusty, my fellow bulls fan, I have been here since we traded him and I remember your reaction video on it flaming GarPax. I remember being like wait this trade isn’t that bad is it.
You were right
If butler wins it all and finals mvp, he a top 15 player of all time no doubt, if he goes back to back he enters top 10 al time
Happy to see Lowry carrying his weight on a truly amazing run. Still got his raptors jersey! 🇨🇦
So Hawks best team in the East? Only team the Heat haven't beat
that tatum video aging better and better rusty
The only other team(s) that come close are the 1981 and 1995 Houston Rockets who were seeded 6th. Of course, the 1995 Rockets were defending champs so its not like they didn't have the experience, but the West was stacked with good teams like the Spurs (Rodman era), Jazz, Suns, and Sonics. Rockets also played poorly the second half of the season (.500) and they faced Shaq and Penny in the finals in which they swept.
Gentle reminder that jimmy butler wasn’t an all star this year
Then they faced New York which was not hard? The Knicks were competitive and could have gone 7 at home if they scored that last play game 6
If Butler doesn't miss Game 2, the Knicks get swept.
I'm a HUGE Miami Heat fan. Lived in Miami for years and always watched on TV. This year, after the play in, I was hoping they would at best extend Milwaukee to 6 games. NOBODY expected this.
As a heat fan we dont want an apology we want that fucking chip
Humbly Jayson Tatum IS NOT a Superstar
Nuggets va heat will be amazing, however the cannot break the nuggets spirit like they did with Celtics, Jokic is simply just THAT GUY
Wait until you watch what happened in Game 3.
The Celtics shouldn’t be down 0-3 to Himmy Butler
Miami smashed Boston, it was never close
Up 3-0 now, people of the future, comment me who won 🏆
I'm burning every Tatum jersey i got😪
Youre wrong the knicks heat series was their most difficult challenge
I think he meant it was obvious they would win
5:03 “maybe Boston wins”. Yeah that what happened💀💀💀💀
Goes to show how great of a coach Spo is
I was telling everybody I know who's into hoops that these playoffs were gonna be one for the ages. I didn't expect it to live up to my expectations like THIS
As a Celtics fan I wanna die
So the Knicks put up a better fight than Boston
I thought it was impossible for a team to go out worse than the Bucks. Celtics proved me wrong.
The bucks didn’t go out sad most definitely would have handled the heat if Greek wasn’t hurt
@@Osmasonburner It was a bad look for the Bucks, atleast before the Heat proved to be the best 8th seed of all time. I never thought it was a bad look for Giannis though. He got hurt, came back and averaged 32-15-8 and lost 2 close games due to Jimmy having back2back all time games. Healthy Celtics got blown out by 30 when Jimmy had a mid game.

Uhhh wait a minute, in 2011 a veteran dirk whod previously fell short in finals earlier in his career, picked up a veteran point guard just passed his prime in jason kidd, surrounded by snipers and role players, ran through a stacked west and upset the title favorite heat in the finals. Probably the greatest chip run ever till brons 3-1 comeback.
