As long as you talk enough, you can go back and pick out old things where you use them to say you were right all along. I hear talking heads saying basically contradictory things all the times depending on the latest news and wind direction. Prove something by making open bets on specifics and maintaining an open record of them that you can show in entirety and compare to others if you wanna impress me. Don’t just take some clips. I hear Shannon Sharps go GOAT praising LeBron then saying he’s got issues he won’t overcome, same with everyone else. The only series I’ve called wrong so far was the Lakers/Warriors one (I underestimated the LeBron favoring by refs lol and the chaos of the Warriors team dynamic with Poole and Dray and all that, also Klay didn’t come through the way I thought he would in game 6, I half seriously conjectured that the Refs/NBA in general wanted LeBron to advance for economic reasons long term but ultimately against Denver the team quality differential was too much for them to hole to sway the outcome, but I admit this is speculative on my part). Jimmy Buckets is one of the few dogs left in the league, and I won’t bet against them ever (though I think Denver may be able to beat them with their team dynamic but I haven’t thought about or analyzed it enough yet to form my opinion but I will if/when they win tonight or Monday night lol, my money is on them winning tonight, I don’t see Boston becoming the first of 151 teams to come back from being down 0-3 given how inconsistent they can be, the way they balled in Game 5 was not something they can reproduce in both of the next 2 games even if they miraculously do tonight in Miami, but we shall see). As far as Boston versus Denver, I would think Denver would fuck them up. Miami would have a greater chance but it’s hard to see myself betting against Denver unless Jimmy Buckets just goes God mode. We shall see!

Bill needs to have Mike Schur back on the Pod to go over their thoughts on the ECF with this conversation in mind. They really nailed it and I kept coming back to this theory on them as I watched Bucks Heat, and then Knicks Heat and of course as they went up 3-0 on the Celtics.
The only part where they were off was thinking the Heat would be bad on offense. They have been great on offense which is one of the reasons they have been so dominant.
Huge heat fan here I remember listening to this pod and thinking these two, especially the guest have it right. Especially since the Heat are extremely well coached by Spoelstra and his staff. They are ready for any moment and aren’t scared 3-1 lead right now and I think it’s Heat in 6
wow, amazing video with some insane insights. when you guys were describing how the Heat always managed to find themselves in close games only to barely win- little did we know, all those experiences were building up the entire roster to be absolute killers in the clutch come playoff time. As we’ve all seen now, they play with so much confidence and are able to come back from 10+ deficits in the fourth out of absolutely nowhere while the other team is discombobulated and gassed. They dont fold under pressure and have immense poise. Every player in the rotation knows their role and they dont buckle or mentally collapse. They’ve completely torn the souls out from the Bucks and the Celtics and left them looking confused and lost despite those teams being way more talented and deep on paper. The Bucks looked like they completely collapsed in Games 4 and 5. Giannis was completely rattled and looked terrified to even touch the ball by the end of that series which is insane to see from the guy who mercilessly dropped 50 in Game 6 of the finals just 2 years ago. “Best Perimeter Defender in the League” Jrue Holiday was getting straight up abused by Jimmy. In Game 3 for the Celtics we saw Jayson Tatum getting his ankles snapped by Gabe Vincent and blown past by Duncan Robinson. Shits just embarrassing. They’ve completely wrecked the Eastern conference. To me this is a sign of top tier coaching and a well run franchise. To sum it up, the entire team got that dawg in them.
This is genuinely amazing. Called the Smart 3 and thr Strus make lol. The comment about it taking teams a full quarter to understand the Heat zone is truly amazing after Spo played zone for the 1st and 3rd quarters of game 2 🤣. Its like he listened to this pod lmao
This is such great content. Bill and co have the best basketball junkie discussions. I love how perfectly Mike broke this down. It was eerily accurate and it was heightened beyond what he even saw coming!!! 🤣🤣🤣
right around 12:30 mike starts talking about an alternative universe where the Heat take out the Bucks. At this point, my brain melted. This should have been required watching in the C's film sessions when the playoffs started and especially after the first round. a "break glass in case of emergency" video to remind you what could happen. I realize they were having problems with a (very good) upstart Hawks team (credit to them!) but good grief - absolutely prophetic!! Just think about this - it's not like Mazzula et al had absolutely no idea - this was a Boston friendly media piece back in MARCH. When they saw what happened to the Bucks they should have gone straight to this video and said "woah - pay attention!" sometimes.... knowledgable fans / media actually understand something worth paying attention to, ya know?
This is absolutely stunning, Schur was the ONLY person saying this in March. Guess you gotta have a pretty special brain to create all those shows but I didn't know it translated to sports!
Going into the season the Heat had been in 2 of the 3 Eastern Conference finals and after they demolished the Bucks (shades of 2007 Mavs) I didn't really have any questions what was going to happen. However, I will say I didn't envision the Heat punking the Celtics... I was kinda hoping for 7 game slogfest of rubber match... This is what the audience must have experienced when Roberto Durán yelled out 'No Mas' in his second fight with Sugar... bewildering disappointment. (Edit) That was some pretty close predicting guys lol
I need to contact Mike and ask for lottery numbers because he was spot on. As a rabid Heat fan, I was frustrated of the losses after Kevin Love joined. However, I knew that once they get into the playoffs, Jordan's son will do a lot of damage.
When my Bucks lost in essentially the exact fashion described by Bill and Michael here, i remembered this moment instantly and it made me cry. Makes me feel a lot better that the Celtics are about to get swept by them
@@ChanTheMan1996 the heat always win the hard way all throughout the season. Them having a 3-0 lead in the ECF is foreign to them. Winning a game 7 in Boston is the most Miami Heat thing to happen in the ECF. I bet if the Heat will win the Finals vs. the Nuggets, it would be a game 7 coming back from a 0-3 to be the 1st team in history to ever win from that defecit simply because that's what this Heat team is. The ultimate underdogs who has No quit mentality.
as a heat fan this season was frustrating to watch. but it was mostly because the shots weren’t falling. but the coaches and FO stuck to a gameplan and knew the shots will fall at some point. and it did. at the perfect time
This is what I was saying before the playoffs began. The ONLY team in the Eastern Conference that scares me is the Heat, and I definitely don't want my Celtics playing them. I'm not the least bit surprised by what has happened.
This is crazy..so prophetic. If anyone was paying attention though, they would have seen that with the amount of injuries the Heat endured all season, the numbers really should have been thrown out. I dont understand the surprise.
While I can appreciate the frustration, this team was the #1 seed last year and were one possession away from the NBA Finals, along with being 3 years removed from an NBA Finals. This team wins by staying close and finding a moment in the 2nd half to win comfortably or make it to the last moments and win by the smallest of margins. The road is just as comfortable as playing at home. They are the team that relies on the game being 48 minutes full of basketball. You will lose focus, you get mentally tired, and they'll give you enough rope so you can h@ng yourself. The Miami Heat are a worthy Championship contending team who by mid-June could have finished the job. This is basketball not gymnastics. There are no style points and in 10 years they will be remembered as the tough team at the beginning of the decade that won 1 Championship, went to 2 NBA Finals and 3 Eastern Conference Finals in 4 years. Put some RESPEK in their name.
we just missing a chip to be the best really. ECF last 3 of 4 years. it’s looking like it’s about to be 2 finals trips. only one other team has been more successful and it’s been the bucks but only because they did get the one chip.
You can even argue the best team. No team has been to as many ECFs other than Boston and now they'll be in their second finals. More than any other team.
To me, this series reminds me of the Simpsons episode with the zombies. The Heat tapping the Celtics head, hearing only hollow noises, and coming up disgusted that there's no "braaaaaiiins" in there
There versatility on defense is whats insane. When you match how hard they play defense and hustle and scrap with switching from man to man to multiple random different zone defenses and different kinds of double teams where they moght jist show or completely trap or whatever they do really hard to stifle the best scorers it throws teams off. Most nba teams will have one type of zone theyll use a little bit or half the time maybe. Miami uses different zones a bunch and then u got Jimmy and Bam anchoring it and then Jimmy actually turns up like crazy in ths postseason so u have a legitimate superstar running things.
As a heat fan I thought our season was over when we lost to the hawks at the playing, we could've been the 6th or 5th seed if we win some key games down the stretch but we lost and kept losing but we always played our style of basketball and always competed so I feel I gotta apologize for ever doubt this team and the Godfather Pat Riley

Heat have been easily the 3rd best team in the East since butler got here if not the second
we just missing a chip to be the best really. ECF last 3 of 4 years. it’s looking like it’s about to be 2 finals trips. only one other team has been more successful and it’s been the bucks but only because they did get the one chip.
You can even argue the best team. No team has been to as many ECFs other than Boston and now they'll be in their second finals. More than any other team.
That's CRAZY! How prescient Mr. Schur was, what 12 weeks ago!?
Great Video! Great Take! So what you are really saying is.... Erik Spoelstra is one of the best coaches in the league.
To me, this series reminds me of the Simpsons episode with the zombies. The Heat tapping the Celtics head, hearing only hollow noises, and coming up disgusted that there's no "braaaaaiiins" in there
Damn! That’s scary true. I think he spoke this into existence.
This is one of the most on point prediction Ive ever heard 😂😂 99.9% exactly what happen
There versatility on defense is whats insane. When you match how hard they play defense and hustle and scrap with switching from man to man to multiple random different zone defenses and different kinds of double teams where they moght jist show or completely trap or whatever they do really hard to stifle the best scorers it throws teams off. Most nba teams will have one type of zone theyll use a little bit or half the time maybe. Miami uses different zones a bunch and then u got Jimmy and Bam anchoring it and then Jimmy actually turns up like crazy in ths postseason so u have a legitimate superstar running things.
Cousin Mose knows his stuff
This is the best tribute to the heat i love it.
As a heat fan I thought our season was over when we lost to the hawks at the playing, we could've been the 6th or 5th seed if we win some key games down the stretch but we lost and kept losing but we always played our style of basketball and always competed so I feel I gotta apologize for ever doubt this team and the Godfather Pat Riley
Boston had 21 Offensive Rebounds in Game Three
Miami had 1 Offensive Rebound in Game Three
Miami won by 26 points.
Wow! This was prophetic. Looks like his fear was justified. Let's Go Heat!!
Mike a high level ball knower. 🫡
Michel NostreSchur: "The Bucks are the 2nd scariest playoff team & the Heat are the 1st. The Bucks are excellence, relentless excellence. They have Holiday, Giannis & Lopez & all the 3''s & the other guys. But you know what they are & you can match up with them. But they dont have what the Heat have; which is the Dark Arts. I'm telling you they are the scariest team in the playoffs".
This is awesome.
Prophetic.
10:40 - LMAO. The alley oop play also happened during the Bucks series. Bucks made a literal rookie mistake lol
This is terrifying! I had no idea I was listening to a past pod until halfway through the video!
This man is a prophet 😂
This is incredible.
That is hilarious how things turned out
true visionaries
This man is an oracle! Get him back on show Bill. We need another one of these heat rants lol
