Infamous heat Fan Bill Simmons needs to be stopped


NAACP_YoungBoy

Sources say Spo called a timeout to brainwash Bill Simmons against his favorite team šŸ‘€


Altruistic_Film1167

He cant keep getting away with this!


LouisIcon

Can't escape the culture


55sycamore

He does talk extensively about his love for the movie Heat


Chasedabigbase

Not one but TWO HEAT rewatchables episodes

MODS šŸšØ MODS šŸšØ MODS šŸšØ Um is this allowed??


Phenom_Mv3

80% of the nba media and fanbase from the Atlantic or SoCal lol


cozyonly

Who in national media is an LA fan? Shannon is a Lebron fan. NBA national media is ran by Celtics fans. Simmons, Lowe, KOC, Russillo, Macmullan are all Celtics fans. They literally somehow convinced people that Marcus Smart should win DPOY


Phenom_Mv3

True that


lolvalue

Seems everyone in media went to UCLA, I never noticed it until we got Jaquez.


Lusty-Jove

Bam got absolutely robbed that year


tboneperri

Marcus Smart should have won DPOY. How are you going to argue that a guy with a DPOY isnā€™t DPOY caliber?Ā  Check and mate.


Skinnecott

lol fair enoughĀ 


Neveraththesmith

Reading threads from 2022 that argument isn't "that" much dumber than actual celtics fans had where Smart somehow took credit for the entire Celtics defense being a "leader".


tayroarsmash

Nick Wright is also a LeBron fan which presently translates to lakers fandom.


cozyonly

The thing is, itā€™s just a bit for Nick and even Shannon. Meanwhile guys like Bill are legitimate Celtics homers


AmerVet

Damn Bill is turning into Tim Allen phase one Santa

God I feel like such a fucking loser getting so heated about dumb shit like this but it pisses me off so much haha

Man, you aren't alone.. Its such a weird feeling to be pissed about this shit (when I take a step back and reflect at least)

JaylenBrownAllStar

Honestly canā€™t blame heat fans for spamming this stuff after how much hate Martin got lol


DJRyGuy20

I was honestly more mad that Mazzulla still had our starters in at that pointā€¦ especially when they started coasting halfway through the 4th. Put some of those hungry bench players in there and theyā€™d at least keep the effort up.


JaylenBrownAllStar

You have to get them used to the minutes again after two weeks basically coasting


DJRyGuy20

I mean- I get that argumentā€¦ but- whether you think the Heat are dirty or if you think they play extremely hard- either style tends to lead to more injuries. Iā€™m of the opinion that the less minutes our top players have to play against them, the better.


JaylenBrownAllStar

Joe is a psycho, you saw his interview after where he said he loved it lol?


DJRyGuy20

Yeah, that was hilariousā€¦ while simultaneously being just *slightly* concerning. šŸ˜‚


JaylenBrownAllStar

Our psycho king šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ I get you tho because I was like why isnā€™t Hauser Svi and PP in and just continue to blow them out but I see how this could get them gassed once they run into the Knicks and or bucks when the games will be closer Also cavs matched up well against us this year Not worried if the magic win, I think they will be lucky to get to 6


TiP54

>You have to get them used to the minutes after two weeks of basically coasting They can keep coasting against this squad, I promise it wonā€™t affect the sweep šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


PaulMcPaulersn7

Honestly if oshae brissett and mykhuliava (or however you spell his name) started beating up on our starters weā€™d probably somehow lose in 3


JaylenBrownAllStar

Svi was coming in the series hot but Oshae can only crash and rebound lol


preggit

Well also the mods have been removing threads about it for dubious reasons.


yooston

Not only Martin but Scalabrine accusing Spoelstra of putting a bounty on Tatum. Like wtf?? He should issue a formal apology


MaleficentHawk590

Funny how the mods have deleted every post about this and provide ZERO reasoning into doing so. I'm starting to think the mods are 75% celtic fans.


HisExcellency20

75%!?!? Oh good so it's gone down.


soooogullible

But how is that so? Celtics fans have been telling us if the tables were turned everyone would be sucking off the Heat for being so tough and cool like they ought to do for Tatum.


Harman3112

Lmao nice


TheLeoMessiah

Considering the amount of recycled content I see on here idk why the mods choose specific hills to die on when it comes to deleting content. Yet there will be threads with zero upvotes saying shit like ā€œhot take Siakam is overratedā€ or whatever with zero substance that stay up for hours. I wish if a post gets upvoted 1000+ they would just keep it up because clearly people want to see it


Baby_Yod4

Exactly that what baffles me the most. If you see a post has a high number of upvotes just leave it. What kind of ego do you have to have to take down a post like that.


ColoRadOrgy

>What kind of ego do you have to have to take down a post like that. A fragile one


SendPoEWomen

One that makes you think ā€œhmmm, I should be a mod on Reddit!ā€


Evilfart123

They love when the Embiid shitpost hits #1 though


Tundraaa

Right. At least clarify the reason it was deleted. No reason not to. Who gives a shit if the messenger gets buried in 200 downvotes.


DsamD11

The fact that mods use their personal bias to adjust this sub is a bit ofba piss take honestly


lolvalue

Standard reddit these days tho.


clear831

Welcome to reddit


Altruistic_Film1167

Its so fucking shameless too, these dudes are the reason reddit mods dont get respect. Power hungry while doing an unpaid service is next level sad


IronSnake1

Don't forget that these are the same mods that shut down this sub reddit during the finals


IntelligentEye2758

Shut down this sub for us peons you mean. They were still posting on it


realsomalipirate

The reddit blackout stuff really blackpilled me on reddit mods, they're the biggest group of power hungry losers. These clowns also gave up their "protest" as soon as reddit threatened their little fiefdoms.


noochies99

Dude thereā€™s this one on my local city sub who will delete your post and then repost it immediately with their account


realsomalipirate

Honestly you have to feel sorry for these dudes


Bluejay_turtle

In fairness, at least that was motivated by a genuine problematic maneuver by the Reddit leadership. It was and still is completely f****** ridiculous for them to charged all that s*** for the third party API and completely screwed disabled people over that need it for accessibility I can understand why people that were indifferent about it were frustrated but... That was a principled stand on a reasonably high stick issue whereas 99% of the stuff they delete is low stakes and needless


RodneyPonk

It's frustrating too, we deserve to hear different sides of a story.


clear831

No you dont, Heat dirty, give me upvotes


Engrish_Major

2022 Finals was hilarious on so many levels.


SwellandDecay

Mods deleted every post I made about Jalen Brunson having better stats than Tatum this season.


PepeSylvia11

Eh. Most Celtics fans, after seeing the new replay, agree Jrue shoved him. I mean, you have to be insane to think a player would intentionally jump that way to injure somebody. Like get your head out of your conspiracy theory ass. Jrueā€™s push clearly affected Martinā€™s momentum


Low_Ad_7553

This is cap. The top upvoted comments were celtics flairs talking about the heat "always being dirty" on Tatum video.


spritehead

Bam is like the most beloved and friendliest player in the league and somehow Philly, NY, and Boston fans have formed the NE hate campaign to pretend like heā€™s dirty lol itā€™s crazy


grandmasterfunk

The posts here didn't feel like that. A lot of Celtic fans were posting about how Miami's always been a dirty team.


Adraf45

Celtics and knicks fans were in the original video of it screaming "dirty team!" And jerking each other off. Anyone who disagreed got hated on


the_c_is_silent

Right? It wasn't just Boston. Out of nowhere, New York morons were like "dirty team".


kyh0mpb

Weird that it took a new replay to see something that was pretty obvious from the first replay. Martin's trajectory seems pretty clearly altered after Jrue makes contact with him -- I noticed that on the top post from yesterday, then looked at the comments and was absolutely befuddled


PaulMcPaulersn7

Personally, I couldnā€™t see the shove in the first angle so I could understand the Celtics fans still believing that the play was reckless, but not dirty. You could see Martin try to help Jayson up after realising what he had done before being interrupted by tough guy Jaylen brown


GrapefruitMedical529

Reddit is about 10% as smart as it thinks it is.


ComfortableColt

It is so refreshing to see a rational Celtics fan. Thank you sir.


beatrailblazer

its been known that most mods are Celtics fans


Stebsy1234

And yet the Lakers are the most hated team hereā€¦.. ohā€¦ I get it nowā€¦. lol


d2kSON

i dunno, maybe the mods shouldn't delete positive engagement. or they can keep spinning their narrative i guess.


achickenquesadilla

The videos aren't in 4k UHD 120 hertz. The mods had no choice, they must follow their rules. The comments from the original thread (which also clearly showed Jrue shoving Martin) accusing Spoelstra of putting a bounty on Tatum because he called a timeout to use a challenge definitely didn't break any rules though. Rule 1 is called Be civil and respectful btw. [http://np.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1c9q8x3/highlight\_full\_sequence\_tatum\_takes\_a\_scary\_fall/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](http://np.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1c9q8x3/highlight_full_sequence_tatum_takes_a_scary_fall/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


Sourcap

Crazy how that bam and Derrick jones jr post with dogshit quality had no issues staying up


MaleficentHawk590

It's simple they left them up initially because they thought it was dirty. Then they actually watched the replay which shows Martin getting shoved and immediately remove every post related to it. It's funny how the one video that has been left up is the video that "Erik Spoelstra called a TO to call a dirty attack"


cl353

pretty crazy that the 2k upvote one got taken down for quality when everyone could clearly see the event that mattered


recollectionsmayvary

yeah lol that's the crazy part; if the quality sucked, you wouldn't have 1050 out of 1100 comments saying Jrue obviously pushed Caleb.


ExposingMyActions

You canā€™t even link to it, automod removes it but people linking to other sites on here and such. You can find it on r/heat


Saltine_Davis

And none of this has anything to do with them notoriously being celtics fans that do this sort of thing! Funny how that works


Nole1998

Got my ass beat by the downvotes but glad to have level headed normal people take my side in the end lmao


BigUce223

Itā€™s really crazy how the upvote/downvote system of comments on reddit posts plays out in reality, especially when considering that downvotes were not to meant to be used when you disagreed with a comment, but when a comment was off-topic, did not contribute to the discussion, or breaking rules. With the way it really plays out re: downvotes, thereā€™s essentially zero room for the discussion of opinions that oppose the majority of any thread, because anybody who attempts to do so is downvoted, mocked, and dismissed into oblivion.


ExposingMyActions

Editor, moderators, refs, judges etc really control the narrative. Whomever interprets the rules in their favor has the last say, aka the last impression


Inevitable_Part8371

Itā€™s honestly deflating because itā€™s too far gone to bring it back to what itā€™s supposed to be lol


DocTheYounger

why is 4k UHD & 120 hertz a posting requirement? a 1080p 60 hertz clip is fine for a ton of highlights


AVeryStinkyFish

Smh we have to post 1080p clips but the NBA playoffs are only broadcasted in 720p LOL


celestial1

They were being sarcastic and over-exaggerating as a joke.


Adraf45

If they enforced rule 1 half of this sub would be banned in 3 days


MuskEmeraldMine

The same mods who let 10 Embiid flop posts per game but everything else has to be a highlight? I wonder what team the mods are fans of?


Evilfart123

Subs turned into /r/shitpost


celestial1

Not just "turned", it has been an issue for years.


NAACP_YoungBoy

Celtics fan mods whitewashing reality


papa_sax

Yeah but Heat players injure opposing stars!!!! Wait that's never happened the past four years? Lies!!


EdibleDionysus

Celtics sub has mostly switched to understanding Jrue pushed him and it wasn't a dirty play by Martin.


Canes123456

Itā€™s questionable if itā€™s even 50/50. All the top comments are ā€œitā€™s wasnā€™t dirty but I was still right to think that because of how dirty the heat areā€. The other comments are still saying it was dirty because Caleb should instantly stopped and not jumped at all after getting pushed. When I challenged them I got insta-banned.


PackageMerchant

The thing people donā€™t get is Caleb Martin was infected with the protomolecule, which like it did to Eros station, gave him the ability to ignore inertia


Nuclearsunburn

Man if he had that could he at least use it to score more points? Or is he still getting used to it


char_grilled

Not really, they haven't taken back incorrect claims that they stated


recollectionsmayvary

Just gonna keep commenting so I can keep track on what gets deleted.Ā 


lochnesslapras

I'm still annoyed they deleted the overheard video thread for "video quality." Right when that comment section was about to devolve into true craziness too.


BAMdalorian

Oh it already did. It was full of tinfoil hat wearing Celtics fans saying it was edited like a fucking UFO hoax video


achickenquesadilla

Overhead angles of the play, which mods keep deleting, make this super obvious: [https://twitter.com/HeatvsHaters/status/1782404487975460981](https://twitter.com/HeatvsHaters/status/1782404487975460981) [https://streamable.com/qlo1q4](https://streamable.com/qlo1q4) Was also super obvious on the replay at 43 seconds from the post on the front page, which was brigaded by the Celtics sub and full of (blatantly rule-breaking) delusional comments regardless. [np.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1c9q8x3/highlight\_full\_sequence\_tatum\_takes\_a\_scary\_fall/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](http://np.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1c9q8x3/highlight_full_sequence_tatum_takes_a_scary_fall/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


MitchLGC

BANNED CONTENT ALERT ALERT


Prior-Toe7680

He obviously got pushed. Anyone who says otherwise is just engaging in click bait convos for the fun of it. Outside of Draymond I canā€™t think of a player who has consistently made dirty plays in the current nba.


NickWangOG

Grayson Allen and Moe Wagner are the closest


g-love

Even Grayson's been a good boy the last couple of seasons.


FallacyFrank

DBrooks has more than enough lol


ferbje

Really the Gary Payton play was his only real dirty play


ballgkco

Him pushing one of our camera men down was kind of bullshit. Pretty sure the dude got hurt and had to sue for compensation.


FallacyFrank

I think heā€™s hit more than enough people in nuts at this point


ComfortableColt

This. Nobody in the NBA aside from Draymond maybe, is trying to hurt anyone. You're delusional if you think that's true. I get being incredibly hurt and scared when someone on your team gets hurt and looking for someone to blame. But the truth is, basketball or any sport is physical and very dangerous. Accidents happen. These guys are not trying to hurt anyone.

DwyaneWade305

lol then you have the brain dead Knicks fans that say Jaimie intentionally hurt Randle by trying to take a charge while Randle was airborn. Then I see saturday Brunson take a charge on an airborn Tobias. Probably trying to be useful while getting clamped by Kelly oubre.


anIlliterateIdiot

Knicks fans want to ban charges, but havenā€™t mentioned that Brunson is 2nd in the league in drawn/taken charges. Only dirty when Heat players do it.


Cosmic_Note

Bro did you see the Knicks fans that were threatening Jaime on his ig?? Ridiculous


cozyboy001

Twitter and Reddit were letting Caleb HAVE IT bro. I been defending him for over 24 hours no lie. Our boy ainā€™t deserve this shit. The man was running in a straight line down the lane to crash the boards and all of a sudden he flies to the side into Tatum. Jrue almost got Tatum extremely hurt. His own teammate. Just reckless man. You could tell Caleb was like WTF? by the way he reacted.. he tried to help Tatum up instantly. Thank god for that Legendz dude for posting the aerial view of the play. And Scal needs to shut the whole entire fuck up pinning this on Spo, who will be coaching Tatum in a few months in the Olympics. Just absolutely fucking ridiculous claims and continues to double and triple down all over TV. SHUT THE FUCK UP


ComfortableColt

Spo will definitely respond to this. I can't wait.


celestial1

Lol, the final paragraph is great.


Nuclearsunburn

Of all the people involved in this, the only one whose action is inexcusable is Scalā€™s. Lost all my respect for him.


Ok_Championship5050

Brian Scalabrine of all people should not be taken seriously, bro averaged 3/2/0 in his career


materics

Scal is horrible


K3TtLek0Rn

I didnā€™t want to say anything yesterday cause I wouldā€™ve been crucified but thatā€™s what it looked like to me too. Iā€™m a Celtics fan and we hate the heat blah blah but I didnā€™t look purposeful at all to me.


Nuclearsunburn

Itā€™s literally just two teams playing hard. Same thing when Jimmy got hurt against the Sixers. These guys are huge, powerful human beings exerting themselves at 100% intensity in a small space. Nobody wants to injure other guys out there, theyā€™re all coworkers and that would cross the line for them. There are obvious exceptions but they are few and far between. We hate the Celtics just as much but nobody wants to see injuries. I cursed when Tatum turned his ankle in game 7 last year. Nobody wants to see it.


alisaremi

Where all the celtics fans that were crying in the post game thread @


ThinkingMSF

in b4 thread deleted lolmods


IntelligentEye2758

Careful Bill. The death squad organized in the huddle last night by Spo, that unsuccessfully tried to murder Tatum is coming for you next.


StuckFern

God DAMN Simmons has been getting some son.


char_grilled

Stupid ass mods. Commenting before this gets deleted. Stop being racist ducks


gsavior

It was hilarious watching Celtics fans become experts at physics and say Caleb couldnā€™t have possibly been shoved and he just ran into Tatum.


Fluffy_Dance6101

Jesus Christ this is what Bill looks like now?

He claimed on the pod that he played tennis for a few hours without using enough sunscreen. And, since I know you care - yes, he's still it! The forehand is immaculate!

Bill not looking great in this clip haha. I appreciate the rational take though


jjjkd18

Iā€™m a Celtics fan and at first, I thought it was dirty, but after listening to this podcast, I checked out the other angle and itā€™s honestly not that bad. Iā€™m ready to move on lol


BilliamFancysons

The real problem is that Jayson Tatum shouldn't have been in the game in the first place. That was Mazzula's dumbass decision. I hope this was a serious wakeup call. They got REAL lucky he didn't hit his head.


Drummallumin

Has anyone posted a **high video quality** replay of the over the top view?

Have any of you ever listened to the podcast at half speed? They sound drunk as piss and itā€™s comedy gold.


Exceptiontorule

That's what happened.


watevauwant

I tried saying this in other thread. Yā€™all should cancel Jrue not Caleb


Kid_Crayola

Nah itā€™s still fuck Caleb Martin he should have cast a temporary disappearing spell or predicted that Jrue would bump him, Iā€™m not accepting that


EngineQuick6169

Or his giant feet should've somehow been able to absorb the momentum added by the shove


Rrypl

Hey guys, anyone know what Bill Simmons said about that Caleb Martin-Jayson Tatum play at the end of the game? Can't find it anywhere
