Heat broadcast’s call of it (their audio was scuffed)
Replay with bench reactions
Ok good to know the scuffed audio was the broadcast and not on my end lol
why this shit sound like a home crowd LMAO
Home for Klay technically lol
people will always talk shit but deep down everyone who lived through prime klay has a bit of love for him lol
We all long to catch even glimpses of prime Klay.
Heat Check Klay > any player in history
Facts
Prime Klay will always make the bench in any all-time team I draw up
This is also in Cali where he is even more beloved
It was crazy hearing how loud the cheers were when the ref said the blocking foul against the heat and free throws for Clippers was overturned.
And funny that it was overturned to reaching foul against the heat and free throws for the Clippers
Heat fans travel well. I’m almost sure I heard let’s go heat chants in the 4th
It must be beyond fucked up for a player to hear your whole stadium shake when the opponent hits a game winner on you.
The Los Angeles “Tampa Bay Rays” Clippers.
The Los Angeles “Los Angeles Chargers” Clippers
the LACs
Crack a LACs
heat fans suck in their own stadium. but we travel well due to migrating out of florida cuz the old people have taken over.
prolly had lets go heat chants in 20 of the 29 opposing stadiums in the 2020s
they were chanting lets go heat at points.
Jesus yeah wtf. Maybe California fans still love Klay?
Current Clippers games are like current Chargers games. It’s the away teams home court.
Amazing screen by Bam
Stone walled that guy so hard
Stone Wall Bam Adebayo isn’t exactly a nickname that rolls off the tongue (or maybe it does?), or perhaps isn’t really so much a nickname as just a nice and tidy title more than anything. Iun really know tbh, just that imma be calling him Stone Wall Bam Adebayo from now on… so thanks!
I’m so glad people noticed it. It’s the first thing Klay said in the post-game interview - Bam set an amazing screen, so I could take my time (in 3 seconds)
Dumbest team ever. He’s literally the only guy on the Heat who can shoot the 3.
Damn. You were not lying!
Klay 8⁄17 from 3. Rest of the team 2⁄23!!
Dawg, they pay me to shoot the ball.
My lord 💀
And 1 of those was Bam!
2 from 23? Lmao
So sad
Its a one possession game, miami ran a similar play, but on the opposite side. Bam had a wide open 2 pointer and missed it to win the game in regulation. Clippers probably thought they were running the same play with 3 seconds left. I’m guessing or they didn’t care and were okay to lose the game.
THJ???
Absolutely ass go look up his fg% in this small sample of games so far
He wasn’t on the floor
he’s been ass this year so far. Hope he can warm up.
The C in Clippers Basketball stands for CTE baby.
I hate this team
I was born into this…
Clippers just let me down how does this team constantly blow leads?
choke
your god is a flopper lmao
That was much needed for the Heat and Klay
Klay has been virtually our only threat from deep. Don’t look at Wiggins or THJ unless you really wanna laugh at us
This should embarrass them lol, woulda lost without friendly whistle
Heat battled back from down like 15 to send it into OT. deserved the W tbh Clippers were meh down the stretch
They got plenty of help from the ref’s to barely beat one of the worst teams in ot on a night were klay was prime Klay again
Yes I agree. In fact, CHeat should be 0-8 right now to be brutally honest. Their 3 “wins” were gifted by the NBA’s corrupt refs because the Miami CHeat is Adam Silver’s Baby™.
The whistle wasn’t the Heat’s decision 🤷♂️
Yeah I bet giannis being partnered with a betting agency great for optics when his team is blatantly favoured
He’s gotta feed his kids somehow🤷♂️
How do you leave Klay so open with game on the line? Run through the fucking screen
Spo ATOs. He’s ran many corner 3s off that. I’m sure there’s an Ellington action from like 2018 that’s similar.
My first thought was they were gonna run a slip screen for Giannis or Bam and try to get an easy oop off the play.
Thats what Lue would’ve been expecting though. Run the best spot up 3 point shooter of all time around the screen instead and get him open.
Spo usually goes for a game winning 3 if we’re playing a road game and a game tying 2 if we’re playing a home game, it’s been his thing for years
Spo does love an ATO alley oop but he typically runs them at the top of the key/close elbow with no actions near the inbounder! (He loves double actions at the top before the alley oop cut)
It was obviously a well drawn up play.
You run through the screen, it’s a foul away from the ball. One free throw + possession.
They were down 2. They are more likely to take a high percentage shot than a 3.
Bam screened incredibly well. In fact, might even be an offensive foul. He was holding off Klay’s defender. But they almost never call those when it comes down to a couple of seconds.
I honestly feel like reddit thinks there are no plays in basketball lol.
Why did the defender not simply jump and block his shot? Are they stupid?
I laughed too hard mann! 🤣
It is a foul/illegal screen imo but yeah would be shocked to see it called
Meh it’s one of those. If you call the illegal screen cause Bam grabs him then arguably you gotta call the foul on Wagler when he grabs Klay and now you’re basically play a non-contact sport
Bam’s grab was far more egregious tbf
But yeah that’s never getting called on the final possession
Yea definitely looks like an illegal screen but that’s hardly ever called at the end of the game
lol it doesn’t matter if they’re more likely to take a 2. The one thing you don’t do is leave one of the best shooters ever in the strong side corner for a 3 up 2 even if it was a good screen. Running through the screen would be a much better play. Make the ref call it and if you have to give up a free throw so be it - you still have the lead.
Someone had to do something and the big didn’t have the instincts to make that switch after his teammate got stuck
Bam did give an elite screen there
More impressive than 83 points tbh
Run through Bam is not that easy
Screen was a lil sus but whoever was on bam should of switched
Clippers should have won this in regulation anyways. Garland with the unforced turnover.
And Rui sold at the line
Which one? Felt like he turned it over every possession in the fourth
Why did Ty Lue sub in these guys lol. DJJ just watching from the bench
Bams a top 3 screener in the league
Top 2 scorer all time to
WILT. BAM. KOBE.
But redditors told me he was completely washed so he actually did the right thing there
Bam was literally holding the guy lol
Yeah they could have just let the paint open the worst thing Heat can do is tie.
You are not running through Bam buddy.
By grabbing on the screen lmao
Uhhh Bam said no. Honestly a great screen and the dude is massive
He definitely tried to lol
Straight up criminal defense. You see him sprinting to the corner and just decide to let him watch the game from the front row? The gravity is still real, even if he’s wearing a different jersey.
Look at Brook Lopez, he let Sanders get screened
The Klay Thompson downfall was greatly exaggerated
I mean he’s still one of the greatest 3 point shooter of all time being left wide open in the corner, I don’t care if he shot 0-12 from beyond the arc before this shot
He hit 8 threes today
He did not. He had 30 tonight
Warriors fan here. He has always started slow but he will heat up
he’s our best shooter this season by far
Had to get the Miami hoes
boats ✅
hoes ✅
All my goat needs is Boats n Hoes n Treys
Not really, he’s still an incredible shooter but he’s obviously taken a large step back lol
A smooth shot will be the last thing to fade
Maybe, but people were saying he was completely washed, yet he’s hitting tons of threes this year, just as Miami hoped.
He’s not a star, but he’s still a valuable contributor.
Idk between the block on Garland right before and this 3 he’s so back
41% on 8 attempts this year.
Other parts of his game is gone, but catch and shoot threes?
Still one of the best in the league.
No shit he took a step back. That’s what everyone would expect at his age. People were saying he was washed and not an NBA player
Actually I think the game winner was a catch and shoot, not a step back /s
Ugly Klay statue incoming
Mavs fans were really trying to convince us that just because he’s old, he magically forgot how to shoot
As if we Heat fans didn’t see a resurgent Ray Allen in a the exact same role as Klay 13 years ago. So long as he can shoot, he has a place
Bro really just wanted to get open 3s and went to the Mavs and they promptly traded away Luka. This season he’s going to get Giannis passing out and dribble handoffs and elite screens from Bam all season. Oh yea and South Beach. Captain Klay is back!
top 3 shooter all time. Can never underestimate a Klay Thompson 3 point shot.
Had a terrible start but has been legit impressive for the past few games
no he is actually ass thats why this was his team’s second win lmao
3rd
I thinks Nico fucked up Dallas with that trade.
Worst mistake he’s ever made
Dallas could have klay and ad now. With coop and kyrie. Shame
I’m very happy Klay bailed us out, but man our offensive schemes look so damn clunky.
Leaving Klay wide open in the corner is crazy. The Clippers really said, “go ahead, get your career back” lmao
The defender got screened off.
Happy to see Klay get some shine, let’s go!
They are torturing the clippers
These are the type of wins that build major team chemistry early in the season
HE’S STILL GOT IT
Klay still got it!
Klay still hates the Clippers lmao
Those Warriors Clippers rivalry games in the 2010s were nice
In both final plays of the 4th and OT, we left shooters completely wide open.
Klay Totoy for the win!
Washed - 30pts, 8 3pm, game winner.
Klay remembering who the fuck he is
NBA fans forgetting that Klay is a very streaky player and goes on extremely hot stretches mixed with some down periods every season.
He will have a 5-10 game stretch of shooting 30% and then go on a scorcher.
Hes rarely had seasons where hes very consistent.
Klay been remembering the last 3 games now…
4 rings Klay Bompson baby!
Sanders completely died on that screen
I will never understand the guy guarding the inbound passer(Giannis) not immediately going for Klay
the heat needed this
nba needed this. nba is better with klay shooting like a top 10 shooter of all time
Warriors legend, Klay Thompson
Who? This is Heat Legend Klay Allen here
this heat team is so ass, needed a klay game winner to beat the 1-6 clippers in OT
To be fair the clippers have been giving most good teams a run for there money. Raps lakers okc
Well, if only if Basketball lasted for three quarters.
Yeah basically. They’re what we expected, slightly better then I thought tbh. Could win some games when you guys get B.I
2nd quarter was sad af
They just couldn’t stop hitting bullshit
Idc. That game winner was fun
It was, but long term outlook or even short term it ain’t looking great
You guys played a close game against them recently….
Sometimes ass is fun.
