The Inside guys react to Miami’s double-digit Game 2 win over Boston | NBA on TNT 

Spoelstra is the real deal, i used to think he just lucky to coach Miami Super Team, but no, he's a great coach

Erik Spoelstra is the best coach in the NBA. Heat culture is a real thing.

The fact that Jimmy posted "Dont let us get One" tonight... it feels so iconic. We got a series, bruh.

"Brown & Tatum depend on their talent, they don't depend on their effort." - Kenny Smith Ok. This time I must give it to the Jet.

The Miami Heat tonight sent a message to the Celtics that they’re not going to go down without a fight

im still in disbelief beating a superteam in their homecourt without himmy and scary terry is crazyyy work 😂😂

Shaq hit it right on the head in the pregame and called it. The Heat played fantastic tonight to steal game 2 and they'll never care about being the underdog BECAUSE THEY'VE ALWAYS BEEN USED TO IT 🔥🔥🔥

Spoelstra his mentor Pat Riley Zo Morning and all the Heat crew are just first class organization. Even though they lose this series (which is not a forgone conclusion) it's now obvious that the fact they eliminated the Celtics before was not random. Very impressive organization Spurs like.

How old is Horford now?? Feels like he’s been in all play-offs for some team since the mid-90s.

what nobody is talking about was how spo had a duel guard with caleb and delon helping herro get the ball up court and the offense going. when herro is tasked with all the ball handling duties he gets lots of turnovers and hogging and chucking. but with the handling help it really allowed the offense to run smoother and keep the ball moving. caleb was great today, defensively and offensively.

Coach Spo is a wizard, quick to identify issues or problems and adjusts accordingly. Miami & Coach Spo are going home 1-1!

The thing that stuck out to me was the others stepped up. Tyler Herro with 21 points and 14 assists, Caleb Martin chipped in with 21, Jaime Jaquez with 14. You can have great play from your main guys but the others have to step up as well and they definitely did.

Pretty crazy they were even able to take a game off the Celtics without Butler. The talent discrepancy between these two teams is massive (no offence Miami). They are dogs

Herro with 14 assists is really impressive

Even if miami lose this series Spo just showed the whole league how to defeat the Celtics rip

This is why, as a Knicks fan, I rooted hard for the Sixers to beat the Heat in the play-in. I wanted my Knicks nowhere near the Miami Heat. And that was WITH Jimmy Butler. The Celtics ought to be ashamed of themselves, and they better rip that team up if they lose this series.

Porzingis living up to that 5’24” Sharpshooting Floor spacer” nickname

As a Laker fan, this is what i envy with the Heat. Whether its coach Spo or their players, you know they will not go down without a fight. You can't bully them even without JB. While the Lakers feels like when you start to bully them they will just lay down the ground and accept the defeat.

Sometimes i wish SPO have 2 Superstars again.

This series should be a sweep for Boston they got 4 players with All-star level.

Not only they beat them in their own gym they beat them at their own game

This game was all about the Celtics not playing defense. They were a step behind all night, they let the Heat get wide open shots all night. Credit to the Heat for knocking down their shots, playing well all around, and giving great effort start to finish. But this is all about the Celtics not playing hard and just being lazy on defense. It must be so frustrating being a Celtics fan when your team has the best record in the league, but they play around in serious games/moments. They have no heart at all.

Shaq shows 💯 that once a heat lifer always a heat lifer

Pat Riley teams are different than most... these guys will NEVER give up... even when they've had bad seasons, every single game they gave it all they had.

Every coach in the East is scared of Spoelstra. Dude is so good at what he does.

I think regardless, the celtics should win, because with no Butler and Rozier, its honestly kind of embarrassing that they even lost a game, let alone at home. But if Bam can neutralize KP, this celtics team honestly is just its previous version, with arguably less depth. The Jays will get theres, but KP is the X factor that the C's need to make sure gets going, and the heat need to make sure gets shut down.

The TNT curse for the Celtics lives on

The biggest difference was Porzingus struggling. When he plays well Boston are just too good. Props to the Miami shooters they were just exceptional.

14 A by Herro was everything

Well said Kenny at the end! Spot on..... Talent and effort 👌

The fact that the heat managed a win without butler or rozier proves that they turn into the 96 bulls whenever they play Boston.

“That ain’t no tech” 😂

Tyler Herro was dressed like "the Miami connect" at the press conference.

Erik Spoelstra is just incredible. Best coach in the NBA, and it aint close.

If the Heat played better during the regular season Spoelstra would probably have multiple coach of the year awards

Coach Spo, arguably the best coach in the league since he became my Heat’s Head Coach

Point Herro is something. Don't know if it'll work long-term but it was impressive tonight.

I don't think the seedings matter anymore. All that matters is to get yourself in the playoffs and play hard

They always talk about coaches doing “less with more.” Spoelstra is leagues beyond this. Absolutely no one would have blamed him if after losing Jimmy the Heat just went quietly into the night. But he just refuses to give up and truly believes no matter who’s on the floor, the Heat can win. It’s unbelievable

Excellent analysis Kenny regarding effort and talent with heat vs celtics!

"Playoff Tatum is not a thing" -Jason Tatum

Flowers to the audio team for the fire track 🔥🔥🔥💐💐💐

Tyler Herro handshake at 0:43 😂

This is why Dame breaking his marriage trying to get to Miami lol. Heat culture is real!

This game showed the cold hard truth about the Celtics. They aren’t championship material. No killer instinct. No leader. Tatum isn’t that guy. Even if they make out of the East, there is no chance they gonna win.

Celtics fumbling the play-offs time and time again should be studied

Well said, Kenny. Don’t trust only talent. The effort is important

Who ever thought of putting these 4 together for a halftime show is a genius

Celtics the most gassed team😂😂the media forgot what the Heat did last year

Spo and The HEAT***?Showed What It Means To Be A TEAM of Confident Players, No SuperStars!! Just Players That Play , Enjoy The Game, And Know How To Put It Together As A Team…Spo*** Is That COACH!!

It's not a shocker... We found our point guard... Jaime stymies the offensive flow every time he drives to the paint.. meanwhile Tyler works the screens to perfection...finds the open man.. takes the high percentage shot and makes the high percentage play !! #LetsGoHeat 🔥🔥🔥

Miami is a “Next Man Up” factory. Their culture and ROI is unreal every year.

I can see this series going 7

Porzingis got that triple single

Miami Heat have gotten the hardest road to the NBA finals for the past two years but they always seems to never disappoint..

Martin was the reason they kept the lead!! That boy was on fire with timely 3s

Tingis Pingis with 6pts… Now imagine getting that almost every game in the playoffs and you know why the Mavs had to move on from him. Especially when he was too injury prone too.

I can’t understand why many underestimate the Heat- they are warriors- Spo seem to have deciphered the Celtics defense in this game

Spoelstra is such an underrated coach the guy has been an incredible coach for the heat for many years you can just tell when playoffs come around and Miami are in it there going to give anyone an incredibly tough series

Miami without their best player beating the best NBA team this season in their own house is crazy, while the Lakers can’t beat Denver in 2 years.

Give the heat there respect

EAST is so lucky that Dame never went to Miami and Butler got injured. But Jimmy was right, Hero is their Dame.

I LOVE my SQUAD and I LOVE my COACH, BUT as GREAT as Coach Spoe IS, you GOTTA have PLAYERS who are BOTH willing AND talented ENOUGH to EXECUTE your game PLAN!!!

Herro at PG is nice. Miami might have found something.

Tyler Hero looks like "Steph" with that shooting.

Celtics losing home court is far more devastating than Nuggets holding home court

Heat fan here. Valiant, amazing effort by a well coached team! But when you have to win by making a historic amount of 3s we know that's not repeatable.

The curse of the Miami Heat......

I love this heat culture that Spo and Riley have created. Every year they are a problem.

If you look at the home and road records the Miami Heat played way better on the road all year.

This Miami team matches up REALLY WELL with this C's team, even without Jimmy. Also, Miami's roster was constructed for the postseason. Boston's was designed for the regular season only.

Coach Spoelstra is the best coach in the league and the man makes it happen without crying to the refs etc.. just get his team going and moving. Respect and typical celtics let down

Tatum aint that guy hes a 2nd option getting treated like a superstar how many times yall gunna let him away with choking

“The number one thing a coach does for you he puts you in a position to be successful. That’s the second thing.” 😂😂 Chuck is a natural

Bam and Herro are still representing Barbenheimer. Respect.

Go Miami 👏👏👍

Spoe red the celtics like a story book after that game 1 lose

What a road win by the Heat! Coach Spo with his roster and talent reaching the finals last year is incredible and again this win with his roster and best player Jimmy B out and still get a win at the garden. No sweep like everyone expected. LOL Heat is looking for eliminating another top seed like last year!

Eric Spoelstra is THE BEST COACH IN THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION!🔥

The Boston Leprechaun got Cooked by the Miami Heat.

I wonder if they had Herro healthy in their playoff run last year, if they would have been in the finals. Especially with how tyler is playing

"Nobody eats that early, Ernie" 😆

Ill say it again. As good as the Celtics have been since Tatum and Brown i swear I don't ever once remember seeing one of them give an assist to the other. Its always with a different player or one on one scoring

The Heat isn’t intimidated by any team.

Celtics are the Cowboys of basketball 😂😂😂 .. self-destruction at its peak😂😂 ..

If Miami win this series Spo can right up his own contract 😂

BEST NBA CREW TNT

Road to the ECF is through the Heat and jimmy buckets.

Time for Chuck to pull it off with Tyler Herro's outfit again. Last year he totally nailed it with that Carlos stunt 😂

I LIKE HOW KENNY AND CHUCK WERE JUST HANDING OUT TECHS 🤣🤣

The Heat need a star player for Coach Spo, he can really end up with 5 championships at the end of his career with more help.

Heat really stole one in Boston and 3 key players out wow!!!! Coach Spo and heats culture not the one to doubt 🔥

Celtics - same story as last year. If it goes in from 3 - they are the greatest team in the east, ect., But if not - they do crumble. The grind in two point range is not their thing. They don't have that aggresive persistance to go all in no matter what - it's called being soft. And it shows.

As a Celtics fan, seeing how talented this team is, it's so upsetting to see these collapses and loses to teams they should beat. Nobody on this team has a dawg in them, at all.

That white man can't jump is a great reference Shaq😂

I say portland miss a gem in making, if the season opening trade between lillard and herro goes through they would be in better position. Look how promising hero is now.

Cs fans having flashbacks 😂😂😂

Franchise record shooting performance + no KP on the other side = 11pt win. Gotchu. Off to Miami... #NowStaffOffTheBandwagon

Coach spo's effect 👏👏

and we gonna win game 3, Can you dig it?
