Kevin love when he came in with Minneapolis
He used to do that. I don't know how many times a night
That man was flying down the right side and you brought that up to Eric Spalstridt
He even remembered when they worked love out when he was coming out of UCLA
How he was doing that in his pro day as Robinson gets the tip in drives on rhymes and puts up an air ball
He thought he was fouled. Oh, he definitely got
Randall penetrates Julius Randall with his second basket for quick Nick point
Brunson
Boy Vincent's done a really nice job on Brunson. He finally gets one to go
He had missed his first five shot New York ball trailing by nine two and a half to play hard lost it off his knee
Their second title since he joined them, of course one two titles here with the Heat 2012 and 2013
Here's Lowry
Visually now that you can see that was a great pass and a great dunk
Brunson eyes or a lot of contact. They do call it count the basket a three-point opportunity for Jalen Brunson
Obie Toppin commits the offensive foul the Knicks shooting 32 percent. They did not make a three in that first quarter
I am he made one high spit equals that mark
The second unit for the heat and terrific nice
Hey, there it is and I'm picking wrong wide open as Miami's defense fell off
I mean, it's the three and Highsmith has it for Miami
Lowry pull up three in transition. It's good
Kyle he's old for two
Nice good hands that time to get the deflection. Otherwise, that was a layup and then climb great with the steel
Drives driving Martin challenging cut the basket and a fouling much-needed transition
Hoop, Kevin love catch and shoot from the inbound pass. No good backside board heart
In this series hard averaging 10 minutes per game gives to the basket count. You talked about it earlier
He does a little bit of everything for you
Walks in with three off the front iron and rebound Randall
Pay attention to Vincent in this series. He's attempting
Big shot by quickly the first three of the game for the Knicks
Brunson and a little airspace for a moment, but that closed quickly now takes the shot
And it's good high degree of difficulty with Butler right in his grill. It's allowed New York to climb back within ten
Now on the switch Robinson against Butler leaning in Butler is foul banks it in his first points of the quarter
He has 12 now and a chance at a three-point play
One minute remaining here in the half Miami is led by as many as 19
Right now it's a 14-point advantage
Butler in the traffic somehow gets underneath part gets the bucket and a five eight seconds to go in the half
Randall
Step back three over on a file is
Much needed triple Butler led the way for Miami with 15 points and a bio at nine
It's true said nine they all came in the first quarter and he starts the third
Like he began the ball game the two guards that are starting up they had me out there
We're not drafted. You gotta love these two kids, right Bruce from the fall
Vincent from UCSB
And Randall with the rebound out and Brunson earned escape today. Just chasing shrews
Round the screen back and then he finally opened up daylight. There's over seven and over four four three
Somebody's opens it three guys defending out of bio. It's spruce and it rolls around and drops Butler
Now doubled he's been able to get around hard a couple times Vincent in the paint and kick out screws
another three for Max screws
try to fight through it here, but
Turn over by the Knicks their 10th and first of the second had an advantage here. Here's love nice fast BAM
What the corner of that stanchion
Then he was hobbling back up the court. Here's a three that goes down for Josh Hart
That's just the fourth three of the game for the Knicks
Brunson 16 points 5 of 14 shooting Barrett not shy here in the second half and he hits a three
He's got 13 points down shot clock at a Butler penetrates
Now Vincent to the corner Lowry with two to shoot let's apply and drills a three great team
That's the second three for Kyle Lowry. He's got ten points
Randall gets that one to drop just his eight point of the game. He was playing in the G League
He said you got to be a combo guard
He spoke described him as a gunslinger and said that in order to make it in this league
You're gonna have to play defense. You're gonna have to play some point guard 24
Out of 27 for Miami a major force Knicks at 13 of 15
Randall to the corner part got a three nice
Credit Miami's defense throughout the game Butler doubled leans in puts up the shot. It's good Butler with 24
He also fell the referee got fouled
That's true on the floor. There's some damage in that second quarter
Lowry too strong Heisman all alone backside for the offensive rebound and putbacks are limited
Let's say that limited to better
Quickly as 12 points the only other bench player to score his grinds who has three meanwhile Kyle Lowry doing what he did in the first
Half, but it is possible Miami could get to the NBA Finals the way they're playing
So it's possible he could be back
Source to the rim and stuffs it through
Lowry backing down quickly
Up and under beautiful move like the lead is 20 to the largest of the day
Times shot clock inside of 10 Brunson trying to drive on out of bile
I'm saying great gets it out gotta have it. They get it grinds for three and New York back within 16

Brunson into the paint out the basket
Time out again by Eric Spolstra with the lead down to 13 Brunson now with 20 for the Knicks
Shot clock at 10 Butler penetrates into the lane stops
What a pass
Terrific job whoever he had off the dribble, but we all talked about this
It feels like everybody in America knew that he would play it just given his history of playing through injury
That ties him with Pat Riley for the fourth most with one team now Riley didn't do it here
He did it he didn't do it the Knicks. He did it with the Lakers
Miami is now two wins away from becoming just the second eight seed in NBA history
To advance to a conference finals they lead the Knicks two games to one New York an eight seed back in
1999 the old
