Alright, so we're heading into game five of the NBA finals starting tomorrow night and when I tell you guys I'm so excited but scared at the same time. Like I literally am because we genuinely do not know who's gonna win any night, literally. It can be Boston one night. The war is the next night. And the reason being is because you when boston wins they shoot, they shoot well they play smart basketball not as many turnovers and they play they play harder. Okay, when Golden State wins it seems to look like golden stay out, plays boston, not even too much out shooting, they outplay them. And I've seen it twice this series so far when the when boston lost now the series is tied 22 again is game five and I believe that this is the winner of these games are gonna be depending on physicality, who's more physical, who's playing more harder and number two the freaking turnovers. When I tell you, boston literally gave last game away. Yes, he really did. But if they would have took more care of the basketball earlier on they wouldn't, golden state wouldn't have had a freaking chance. Okay like at one point they're up more than 10 points. So with that being said, I feel like whoever wins game five is gonna have to play more harder and play smarter and we'll see what happens. I got boston but we'll see, let's get it. I'm excited. Let's see we need boston to win. So mind you look good, okay we need them to win

There are two people that I have in mind for the Miami Heat for the off season two people. Number one. And they both have voiced, okay, this is not a far fetched because they both have voice that they do know they no longer pretty much want to be there. One person has flat out said it, the other person has implied it. Alright, so let's let's let's let's get started, I'm excited. Number one, Donovan freaking Mitchell. If Donovan Mitchell gets paired with jimmy Butler and batman, a bio and my humble opinion with vic coming off the bench, obviously, you know, Tyler may go with that whole trade for donald Mitchell, but if vic is still there, we are going to be a force to be freaking reckoned with. I am so excited that happens number two and this is my favorite Bradley Bill. If Bradley Bill comes to Miami, okay, you can keep the ball and jimmy and bombs hands, Bradley Beal is great at playing our ball and he's a bucket. We need it. Clearly we needed another buck in the playoffs. I think if we get, I think we can get Bradley Bill, you know, we can do something. And he already just voiced that he is, he's his priority is to win to win. Now. He wants to win now. So what other things you pick, if you want to win the Miami, he make it make sense. So those are my two options for the free and you see, let me know, not crazy offseason, let me know what you all think. Alright, got it great

Listen man, listen, we all know, I love a good bold prediction. Okay, I might, I have won every series, it seems like okay with that being said, aye, y'all y'all y'all all solid y'all all saw what happened in game in Game one, boston punched Golden state in the mouth and potentially could have taken a little bit of confidence. Alright, maybe not from Steph, maybe not from, you know Clay, they've been there before, maybe as a team and hold that guys haven't been, I haven't been there. Maybe they snatch a little bit of confidence, they beat them, they beat them at their own game. Okay, threes threes threes threes thanks to their wife. Alright, and Marcus smart with that being an al Horford, with that being said with that being said, I have a very bold prediction. Let's get into it, boston one, Game one, I say they're gonna win game two as well. I think that Emma Udoka is so great that they're gonna steal two games then I think Golden State will get will still game three, but I do believe that boston will go home up to Oh, that's what I freaking believe. Pack me the heck up. I know it's a crazy take, I'm doubting Steph, I'm down clam down cur I freaking get it, but I believe in email Udoka, Taylor and Brown, so freaking much Call it for what it is. Alright, so like I said, Boston winning game two. Alright, got it great

so a couple of days ago. Okay. Um I I said something very very bold. Okay. I said that coaching would be on even when you joke aside and not steve Kerr. Yes I know it sounded crazy. Yes, I get it. I got attacked and everything, y'all know. I don't care about that crap. Anyways the reason why I believe that from the jump is because I see something in me dark, I see greatness. I'm not saying that Stephen curry is not great because he's a great coach, he has three rings experience in the finals, he's a great coach. But Emma Emma judoka, he I see goat status in him, I really do rookie year and he's in the freaking finals. This does not happen often guys, this has not happened. Okay. So with that being said I believe that the thing about M. E. Doc is I see that he's never shook against Miami against Milwaukee against the nets, he's never shook and it has trickled down to his team, jayson tatum, Jaylen brown, they stay so level when they play it doesn't matter how late or early the game is, they stay so freaking level. And the thing is it's because of Emma Udoka, okay, he is rubbing off on them and it's amazing. So that being said I chose him to you know have the coaching advantage. I know it sounds crazy but it is what it's all right but we'll see what happens when the series is over. We'll see if I'm all right. Got it great

so the end has come, it was a great season guys. It was a great season for my Miami Heat. I'm not gonna lie, I'm very upset at all of them except for jimmy Butler. Of course, Jimmy Butler has earned, he should have earned everybody's respect in this playoff run respectfully. Everybody should think higher of jimmy Butler. I have been trying to tell you about this man for their their very long time to respect him. He was called a bubble gangster. They said that he you know, was fraudulent, he wasn't really like that and he showed everybody this every series by series, just how great he actually is. So shout out to jimmy Butler. But when I tell you nobody is safe on that roster outside of jimmy Butler and maybe bam. I mean that because everybody has failed jimmy at one point during this playoff run. Some more than others. Tyler Hero hasn't had a great playoff series because a lot of times he wasn't even injured, he just wasn't playing working, you know, Great. Um you know, max true is another one. Duncan Robinson, another one bam. Another one, you know, like none of them are saying PJ didn't play too well the past two games. So um Kyle. Lowry another one. So with that being said um Pat Riley is not gonna let jimmy go out like this. So just beware because I'm looking for him to make a splash in the offseason but shout out to my Miami Heat, you guys. It was a great season

I refuse to believe that Miami is going to go out. Like people think they are okay. I refuse to believe it. Honestly, I do listen, there's a reason why heat culture exists and everybody will see it in game six in boston. Listen to me, I understand that jimmy's banged up Tyler heroes, banged up Kyle, Lowry is banged up pretty much our entire roster is banged up. But guess what? So is boston and there is no excuse while we can't win an elimination game. If I claim that this is a championship caliber team with that being said, I'm going to live and die with my take, I have Miami going to the finals and to do that. They're gonna have to win game six and game seven and I believe they can do that. Listen, jimmy Butler will not go out like this. I refuse to believe it. I see him having a huge game. I see bam that has played like a cupcake a lot of this series and last series. I see him having a huge game. I see freaking gave isn't having a huge game max truth all of them. Because I I believe in these guys and I refuse to believe They're going to go out like this. Okay. I refuse to believe it. So like I said, Miami is gonna win this series, heating seven. Let's get it

I was today years old when I realized how nasty these these sports fans can actually be. So let me get this straight. People want me to eat my words and lay down and freaking die all because Philly tied the series. Isn't that isn't that that they were supposed to do that correct? They have not one but two superstars on their team the last time I checked we don't even have a quote unquote real real superstar the last time I checked and he outperformed both of them. How about that? But listen, here's the thing, people want me to lay back, sit back and freaking cry because feelings I was serious, they were supposed to do that. But guess what? It's called a series for a reason and it's gonna be the best out of seven The first one of four and Miami is going to win this series initially. Before and I have proof on my beams of me saying that Miami would win in six. This is what I would say if Miami handles business at home and then on the road they can't win in six but if it's gonna take two home games to win that Miami and seven fine but guess what? My confidence is still here. So everybody wanted me to lay down and cry is not gonna freaking happen because I live and die with my text. Alright, got it great

well, well, well, so Philly fans are hype. They got their confidence back. They can breathe now. Good for y'all now we're tied 22. All right. And the thing is this a lot of 70 sixers fans are acting like they wanna freaking championship. I mean, I hosted a space last night and people literally were in there playing dreams and freaking nightmares by Meek Mill. Get a freaking grip on your life. Alright. That act like they want to freaking championship. It's pathetic. But anyways, listen to this. Good for y'all. Y'all did what the heck y'all were supposed to do great kudos, freaking kudos. But let me tell you all this. All right. Just keep I want y'all to keep that same energy. Keep that same energy when Miami comes back when they when it's back in Miami because all that needs to happen is they got to get back in rhythm shooting because they did everything right tonight. Jimmy Butler went for 40. You know, they defend it but they only lost by eight and they shot like around 20% from three from the three point line. So just know that ain't gonna happen again. And what what could happen again is Jimmy goes from 40 because he always went from 40 the last game as well. So just know that now that jimmy's back in rhythm and feeling confident and scoring and let us get hot. It's gonna be a rap for y'all Joel and beat our freaking night. Alright. Got it great

Listen, y'all ain't gonna like this one. I'm just like, I'm just, I'm telling y'all now Golden State fans go ahead and skip over because I got Memphis winning tonight. Alright, I freaking stated I got Memphis taking it tonight from Golden State. Golden State is returning home and people are probably expecting them to take these next two games. Heck no, I see Memphis stealing one tonight. That's just me. I think that they're gonna have to adjust from Gary Payton's absence. Gary Payton Jr was Golden State's best defender on Ja Morant. There's a reason why Ja dropped 47 and there might be a reason why he dropped 47 again tonight. Who freaking knows all I know. Is this when Gary Payton got injured? That opened up the floodgates to Ja. It opened up the freaking floodgates and if they don't have the answer for him it's gonna get nasty for the Warriors. It's gonna get nasty because listen, when john gets hot, listen, I'm telling you the momentum will shift all that momentum. Memphis is a momentum team. Let y'all get high and watch the other players fall suit. I'm telling y'all what I freaking know. Alright So I do have Memphis stealing tonight. Alright, I'm sorry warriors fans but I do, we'll see what happens in game four but I definitely have Memphis in the one tonight. We'll see, I might be wrong. I doubt it but okay, got it. Great

Listen man, all I know is this if the Dallas Mavericks, their role players, if they do not step up and help Luka in game three and four in Dallas, we're gonna have to have a different conversation with Mark Cuban. Okay because luka Doncic is too talented and he's too great of a player to drop 40 plus points, 30 plus points in game two and still freaking lose the game. His second highest scorer was Reggie Bullock with 16 points. And in game 1 nobody even cracked 20 to even help him. Like what are we doing? This man is too talented, He's too great. And this is this is this is the thanks that he gets for being loyal to Dallas. This is what he gets, it's freaking crazy. Listen Phoenix is too good there too disciplined and they're entirely too talented to not even compete against the role players. Like like I I don't understand it. So I'm gonna say is this if the Dallas role players, if they don't step up in game three and four when they head back to Dallas, we're gonna have to have a different conversation because Luca needs to be free in some type of way. Whether it's from the freaking Mavericks, whether it's from freaking Mark Cuban, whether from the front office, the freaking role players, something's gotta freaking change because I'm sick and tired of seeing this man drop 40 plus 30 plus and still freaking lose. Just pathetic. Got it great

I might get a lot of slander for this, but I really don't care. Y'all know, I don't um a lot of people have really criticized Jimmy Butler uhm for, for not stepping up or being consistent numbers wise. People say if he was averaging, you know, 25 10 and 5, you know, um, for the season on really good efficiency. And if he was actually healthy, then then maybe then he, maybe he'll, maybe he'll be considered superstar. Right? That's, that's the whole narrative is with, with Jimmy Butler. But in these playoffs situations, I'm kinda happy. He has not done that. You know, the, with the entirety of him being in Miami. And the reason being is because we would be um, what's the word? We would be um dependent on Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, Max Strus. Gabe Vincent all of these guys have played not without not only Jimmy, but Bam the entire season. So if you look at the way Philly is suffering right now and how they're going to suffer because Joel Embiid be may or may not play, I'm kinda happy because then you have a game like game 5 against the Hawks and what do they do? No Jimmy, no Kyle Lowry and the role players stepped the heck of it, You know why? Because they've been stepping up all season long. If I'm a Philly fan, I wouldn't have that same confidence. So don't, don't criticize me, but I thank Jimmy, I really do

listen man, I'm not sure who's worth. Alright Hawks fans or Philly fans because listen both of y'all are delusional honestly you know the more you talk, the more you all talk I said you know what maybe this is deflection, maybe they actually fear us but maybe talking and talking tough, you know helps you cope man, Maybe that's what it is because the confidence to me it doesn't make sense and it just doesn't. The way James Harden has played George Lindsay's injury, having Doc Rivers at your head coach for crying out loud you would think they would be humble but no they're talking trash beating their chests, talk about how they're gonna sweep. Miami beat them in five or whatever but you know I'm going to say this because I I have sense, I have Miami winning in six. However it could be five based off of one player, one player on Miami's side and one player on on fili side. James Harden if he doesn't step up consistently this series, me over before it even freaking starts and victor. Olofsson on Miami side victor. If he plays anything like how he played in game five the leak is in freaking trouble and don't get me started about coaching. Erik Spoelstra's the better coached by a freaking long shot and everybody knows it. So that being said with that being said I have Miami win against six but maybe five, who knows it might be five but that's my that's my pick. Alright so got it great

Listen, I'm not sure who dodged the bigger bullet. Okay, Was it Doc Rivers in Philly? All right. Because we all, we all know that Doc Rivers has a history of blowing 3-1 leads in the playoffs.. Well, let's let's be real. He has a history of blowing 3-1 leads in the playoffs. With that being said, I'm not sure who dodged a bigger bullet him or the Suns, the Suns. The same Suns that were the number one seed and almost let the freaking Pelicans alright the Pelicans, who without? A Zion Williamson, take them to almost seven games. Thank God they ended it tonight. Thank God because chris paul, people were already calling you a playoff fraud if he would have let that happen on his watch. Oh my freaking gosh, I can only imagine the freaking slander. Now listen, regardless of that, in my opinion, I still believe that Doc Rivers dodged the bigger bullet because this man's legacy was on the line in this series. If he did it again, I can only imagine the slander seriously. Honestly like seriously now with that being said, just thank God for for thank God that the raptors lost for example, because I'm telling y'all, it could've got ugly and thank God that James Harden showed the heck up and showed the heck out. Congratulations. Listen, I'm not gonna bash him. He didn't think tonight, but the bottom line is Doc Rivers better be praying to God that Harden came through because oh my gosh, the slander would have been nasty. All right, Got it great

There’s two things that this Boston and Brooklyn series is exposing. Okay, Number one, Russell Westbrook deserves an apology and number two, KD is a great player, but he is not on the same spectrum as Giannis and Lebron and other players like that. I'm sorry. I know y'all, y'all, y'all don't wanna hear it probably. But I'm gonna tell the truth and the truth is this Russell Westbrook was blamed like crazy when KD left. Okay, See they villainized him. They said he was a bad teammate. They said they said they said that All right. But the bottom line is this KD had his flaws too. And Russ in a way covered up a lot of his flaws and not only cover them up, but made KD is a better player right now. KD is missing that that guy that can that can push that, that that that can instill that confidence and push the greatness out of him. All right. And as great of a player as Kyrie is, he's not that. Russ. Was that for for for KD.? That's why they went to four Western Conference finals together. They were that good. I think people forget how good how great KD and Russ were. And I feel like ever since he left. Okay, see he's lacking the confidence so people can people can blame Russ, blah, blah, blah, blah. But this series exposing that KD Russ was a better teammate to KD than a bad teammate as y'all wanna say that's that Got it? Great.

Alright, You got me, you got me. So there has been a lot of people that's been talking a lot of trash and saying, oh Joy your Miami heat lost and oh Joy this and oh Joy that somebody go check on Joy. Joy is fine. Do y'all not know? I predicted Miami in five. Do you know what freaking two plus two is in order for Miami to win in five, Alright. Four out of five games that have to lose a game, that's how it works. Right? So with that being said, my prediction is just running its course, that is all that's going on here. Listen you guys, I sent Miami Five for a reason. I give Trae Young his respect tonight. Trae Young showed the heck out, good for freaking him. I expected him to he's that great of a player but just know Hawks fans that for the rest of this series, y'all are gonna be sitting back disappointed while Miami beats up on y'all's team. I'm not trying to be a hater, I'm just being real Kyle, Lowry’s injured, Bam Adebayo was injured but just know Miami has that next man up mentality to get it done and I still believe it's going to be Miami in five, Miami and five 12345, not got got it not not four but five got it great

Do you know what I was told? I was told that “Ice Trae” “Ice Trae Young Ice Trae what ever you want to call him. I was told that he was gonna freeze Miami's entire franchise and I was told he was gonna make Eric Spoelstra retire. That's what I was told. Okay but guess what? It didn't happen that way. Not at all. Not at freaking all. This man had eight points on like 8% Shooting . He went one for 12 from the freaking field. How crazy is that? And why is that? It's not because of, this is not because of that. Y'all swore up and down that that that heat culture was a myth. Y'all said it was fake that they were frauds. Well guess what, locking down Trae young that's heat culture for you so take that. Okay put that in your pipe, and freaking smoke it. But the bottom line is that okay Heat culture is also going back and doing it again and again and again and that's how Miami made the finals in 2020 in the first place And In the bubble it was because we were disciplined defensively in discipline offensively and we're gonna do that over and over and over again until we get to the freaking finals. But as far as the Hawks go, Miami in five, I said it before, I'll say it again Miami in freaking five. Got it. Great.

Alright, so here are my playoff predictions for this season. Let's get it. Miami and Atlanta have Miami in five Philly in Toronto, I have Philly six, Milwaukee in Chicago, I have Milwaukee in five because I think Chicago is the next year. Team boston and Brooklyn, I have Brooklyn In seven. But here's the thing, this series is gonna be really, really tough, okay, it's gonna be really tough, really tight because either one can win but I have, I'm gonna go with KD and Kyrie, Brooklyn in seven. Next round I have Brooklyn and Milwaukee. I think Brooklyn is gonna win in seven. Miami and Philly. I have Miami winning in six for the Eastern conference finals. I have Miami beating Brooklyn in seven. Okay now on to the west I have phoenix beating the pelicans in four. I have Dallas and Utah because Lucas out only because Lucas out, I have Utah winning in six um and I'm not sure he's coming back Golden state in Denver Golden state in six Memphis in Minnesota another tight series. I have this series going seven but I gotta go with ya, I'm gonna go with Memphis and seven after that you got Memphis and Garden State Memphis, I'll probably lose, I love job but they have a chance. This is this, this year is gonna either way. Also because you know, Steph may not be 100% and Memphis are dogs and you never count them out. So that being said going to State wins and seven but we'll see um as far as phoenix and Utah go I have phoenix winning in sixth, Phoenix, winning in six against Golden State, and they're gonna lose to Miami in seven. I love to see it. Let's get it go, Miami.

So listen, I just got off a podcast and I just heard one of the most casual takes ever. I just heard that the Miami Heat are the Utah Jazz of the East. In other words, they're calling that they're calling the Miami Heat frauds. Okay. In simple terms, okay, because everybody know the Jazz are frauds. But here it is, here is my proclamation to the freaking world. The Miami Heat will not only make it past the first round, the second round, the third, they will make the finals, they will make the freaking finals. And when they do, I want my apologies because I've been bashed called delusional called this called that all because I'm gonna be right, I'm gonna be right and y'all are gonna be wrong and you're not gonna like that. But it's okay. Back to Miami, here's the thing, name another team in the East, that, that isn't Memphis because they're in the West and who is in phoenix that can that has the next man up mentality like Miami, nobody does. And guess what health is so important. So listen, I understand why, you know, you need stars, you need this, you need that to make, to make the finals. I get all that, but just know we got a leader in jimmy Butler, we got the next man mentality and we're going to the finals, whether y'all like it or not. So keep calling us fries, keep sleeping on it because when we're holding that trophy up for the Eastern Conference finals championship. I don't want to hear a freaking word. Got it. Great
