Series Thread: 5) Indiana Pacers vs. 4) Cleveland Cavaliers

[trojanfight]

He's been clutch in the playoffs for several years....this is nothing news.

He formed super teams because the Celtics formed one and there way no way for LBJ to beat 3 stars/superstars on the same team without getting help.

Not rocket science

I’d say in the heat days he didnt have to make shots. Games weren’t close till finals. Great clutch shot tonight I’m just saying it’s not like there’s a library of him hitting pull up jumpers for game winners like that. The defer to kyrie in win over the warriors for example.

sabonis is a shame to his namesake. arvydas ought to whip his bitchass

I think it was his last shot where it was a layup that he missed. He went in very hesitant like he thought he was going to get hit.

 

[The Oldtimer]

.....and he's 33.

FFS....is this the battle Father Time will finally lose?

And he will be 34 come December.

Or in one of the last possessions of this game he drove to the hoop, should have taken it all the way, instead he kicks it to the corner, and that person rotates the ball to Love who took a 3 and missed.

If you get into the circle LeBron, go up strong, you cant be stopped. If you are stopped it's a foul.

LeBron's heroics aside... Cavs were fortunate to even be in a position to get this one.

Thats 4 games in a row now where the Cavs build a double-digit 2nd half lead and 3 straight games where they slowly lose the lead and end up in a dog-fight at the end.

I would get rid of Oladipo's ass on the next flight out of Indy. Paying this guy all that money to NO SHOW 3 important games? Gimme a break. If this guy would have produced it would have been a SWEEP

Lillard says hello

 

[tlance]

No it wasn't.

He hit a 3.

Cavs still win.

You sure about that?

Many here seem to be struggling with simple math today.

You'd make a shit GM

 

[OregonDucks]

If you want to criticize LeBron's game winner. Although it was a game winner, there really wasn't much pressure. Game was tied, mentally he knows worst case scenario is this game goes into OT and they are at home. That sort of comfort can make those game winning shots easier to take and make.

What are you talking about? These have been competitive games and this knucklehead hasn't showed up since like Game 2 .

Totally agree, how many turnovers did the Pacers have tonight? How many layups did the Pacers miss in the 4th quarter? I don't have a horse in this race, but I think that the Cavs will have a hard time making it to the finals this season.

Come on, Duckie!!!

Give that man his props...lol

I feel like the Pacers have been turning the ball over all series. They also have yet to figure out when they are double teamed that means there is a player wide open. The problem is they can't get the ball to the open player because they are usually turning it over.

I'm just saying, it's easier to take that shot knowing worst case is overtime and not a automatic loss.

Everyone wrote this Team off and he was the guy that turned all that shit around.

He's young.

This was his first playoff experience as the man.

Just admit you hate the guy and you will never give him credit for anything.

This comment is just stupid
