His first thought was probably I AM going to take the last shot, I guarantee that double team threw him off. If it did throw him off, less likely to make that pass with only a split second, then even if he does I highly doubt Lance has a good angle with possibly a double team or defender near him, he was literally right under the rim. But I guess we will never know, but I read minds LOL

Why would the double team throw him off though? They did it 5 seconds earlier. Once Cleveland used that foul to give and Indy saw what type of defense they were running. They should have either called a set play where George is coming off a screen or etc or George should have been aware enough to make his move fast before the doubles come.

Because Nate McMillan's their coach.

The Pacers should have known that a double was coming. I thought it was very poor execution from the Pacers to not be able to attack the defense basically playing 4 on 3 on the backside of the play. It also didn't help that Stephenson looked like he didn't know where to go and just floated in the middle of the court. What the Pacers should have done is that instead of iso-ing George, they should have had him run off a curl to get free and then attack the basket. IMO.

Cavs will coast to an eeee-zzzz W tonight. Lue should consider resting LeBron, Irving & Love.

Not sure if you're joking or not but I can actually see it. Usually when the underdog miss a chance to steal G1 of a series, G2 is usually a comfortable win for the team with HCA.

I'm guessing Cavs by 15-20....and I'm not joking

Emotional morning going over the paperwork (with my dad) on my mom's Mercedes that she wanted me to have. My sister's get to split up her jewelry.

I was just joking around. I do think the Cavs will get the W tonight though. By how much I have no idea. I didn't expect game 1 to go down to the final shot.

Neither did I. I thought it would be close but not that close. I was thinking it would play out like Blazers/Warriors did. Close game for 3 then Cleveland run away with it in the 4th.

Okay if I'm gonna be forced to guess what the score will be I'm hoping neither team plays D (like in the A.S. game) & the Cavs win 159-149. Bet the over!:thumb:

I have to believe this, ESPECIALLY after Paul's presser when he mentioned he had a convo with CJ regarding taking the last shot. Even if that conversation has to happen, you just don't share that with the press. Now there's going to be tension & they will fall apart at the seams on the court.

Like I said, Cavs in 4, as much as I hate to say it.

I think alotta people didn't expect it to be close. On paper the Cavs should have no problem w/ the Pacers. But their D is so lousy & have blown double digits 2nd half leads @ the end of the regular season & in game 1. The Cavs D can't be trusted.

Oh don't feel bad. You'll still have possibly 3 more rounds to root for the other team!:yes:
