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

Carlisle is a good one too.

Carlisle's still a top 5 coach in the league to me. That 2011 Finals will always sting, but he was the heavy underdog and won. Plus his defense made Lebron into what he is today.

It's a god damn travesty he coaches for Mavs (mainly because I don't like Mark Cuban).

plus- and i dont think this point can be understated-

the further the Cavs get in the playofs, the better the team will be and the more dangerous they will become....

If this team can get out of the East, and has like 15-18 playoff games under their belt and faces a beat up Houston or GSW- you just never know what may happen. That might be going overboard- but i think my main point is true

the more games the Cavs play and the more experience they get playing together in the playoffs the more dangerous they become.

I do like the way they are playing defense against a scrappy Indiana team and they have pretty good bigs on Indiana that are very versatile defending wise. Young and Turner even Sabonis can all guard the perimeter and offensively they can all hit the mid-range or 3. We have seen flashes of this offense coming alive but nowhere close to what it is capable of. Hopefully we see a full game or they wont be getting out of this round.

Kevin Love picked up his second foul just 90 seconds into Sunday's game, which he finished with five points on 2-of-10 shooting, 11 rebounds, two steals and one block in 29 minutes.

big game today. Pacers NEED to win this game, a loss here and it is all over. A win for Indiana makes this series really fun because they could knock off Cleveland in game 6 at home.

I basically agree here. Whoever wins tonight is going to win the series.

 

[flyerhawk]

George Hill is out for tonight.

Ian Eagle is really good, Barry is a jackass.

 

[DJ]

James is ready and came to play.

 

[DJ]

Early but so far happy I took the Pacers +6 and the under 205.

 

[DorianRo]

Why do the Pacers play better in Cleveland? I don't get it.

At this point in time in Indiana, they would probably already be down 12

 

[Mecca]

George Hill is out for tonight.

Lebron can only depend on Korver hitting some 3's and Nance giving maximum hustle effort.

Everyone else is streaky or gimp and streaky.

 

[DorianRo]

Theres goes the Pacers and their dumbass stupidity

 

[Shanemansj13]

Touch fouls. Wow. Back the same damn refs. Let them play lol

 

[Shanemansj13]

LOL Bron just scored on 4 straight possessions. Got hacked on 3. Be consistent. All I’m asking

 

[DorianRo]

LeStatPad still won't take the final shot to end the quarter. What a hairless puss

Lebron going bezerk even moreso than usual

God his teammates are trash

Dude might go 50/12/12 and he still has to sweat it out

If he gets 50% results from his guys, they win. he is lucky to get 10% most nights.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

This might be the single greatest post-season performance we have ever seen from Lebron in a series

And its still only a coinflip series even with his near Godlike effort each game

Indiana plays DUMB basketball though. Very low IQ. If they just made better decisions on both ends of the court, they may have swept this series. Hell they got the speed and athleticism, size and inside to PUNISH the Cavs every time down the court.

This is a good game.
