I saw the highlights for last night, it looks like Herro and Jaquez Jr. both had one heck of a game. I'm not sure if Jimmy can make it back in time before it's too late, but it would be a really cool story if the Heat can make this a long series, even if they were to lose the series. Seems everyone is counting them out and all odds are against them. I love an underdog story.
It might not have come through on the highlights, but Kevin Love had a great game too. He shot a ton of free throws and made a bunch of great passes.
They got Duncan back, which is huge for them. I'm not sure if they're getting Rozier back or not.

Love showed up on the boxscore. He got 16 points, which is almost double his regular season scoring average.

He was really aggressive in the post, but he missed a bunch of the layups he got fouled on.
I won't be surprised if they upset the Celtics in the opening game. I'm eager to see if Jimmy can teach Jaquez how to go at the Celtics. If there's a ghost of Playoff Jimmy on the court, the Celtics might implode mentally.

That would be amazing and very entertaining to see.
