PostGame; NBA Playoffs 2012 Round 3; BOS at MIA Game 7

I missed 2 posts but I seriously got busy these past two days, but they were for good reasons so its ok. I didn’t get to write though what I thought either MIA or BOS needed to do. Of course it’s all irrelevant now, as MIA has taken the Eastern Finals.

PostGame; NBA Playoffs 2012 Round 3; SAN at OKC Game 3

Sadly I couldn’t find any even after a thorough search of the usual online haunts, so I’ll just resort to the usual clickbait and post a pic of Rondo with that famous ‘dagger’ three, that help put them out of reach from PHI 68 – 76.

Sucks to be a PHI fan right now huh.
