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

On second look, that might not have been a goaltend afterall... looks like Oladipo finger rolls it back toward the basket. Watch his index finger. Hard to tell though.

After next season LeBron will be 36 shortly after the 2020/2021 season starts.

LeBron is quite literally different in that regard than any player in history. I won't be surprised if he's at or near this level 3-4 more years, and still useful until age 40.

Could be?

Pacers' Oladipo: LeBron goaltended on my shot

Lebron vs the Pacers in this series.

Now you can see why he left Cleveland the first time. He carries teams. No other player would be up in this series the way his teammates are playing. He is giving them wide open looks most of the time too. Wow. Amazing!

Looked bang bang but looked like he touched the ball righr before it hit the backboard

Many people around were thinking he was slowing down last year and he wouldn’t last long. He is a freak of nature, reason why he will be the greatest ever. Longevity like no one else while still being the best

 

[Shanemansj13]

STILL don't want him...

Good luck with the lottery. Cavs got a higher pick lol

Does it really matter? The Cavs won, time to move on.

Good, the Cavs are going to need that lottery pick if LeBron leaves.

LeBron still has a ways to go to be considered the best of all time. When you talk about longevity you might want to bring in Jabbar, into the conversation.

It doesn't. It was a goal tend. Previous play the ball was out of bounds off Thad Young but the refs missed it, saw it bounce up and hit Lebron then go out of bounds. These things balance themselves out over the course of a game. Plus, Lebron just as easily could have hit a 3 to win the game by 1 if the basket counted.

It will be interesting to see the statement league makes in response to it. My question is it seemed pretty quick on the no call. Obviously it wasn’t reviewed who made the call that it didn’t warrant a review?

No it's a goal tend. Doesn't matter though because of GW 3-pointer.

FIFY

Yeah, the goal tend's a moot point. Doesn't really matter how you want to argue it, a GW 3-pointer nullified a missed 2-point basket.

thanks...

good luck getting another title with that garbage around LeClown...

Why would they make a statement?

Everyone knows a goal tend can't be reviewed unless it is called a goal tend.

There will be no statement because they have a list of plays they can review....this isn't one of them

 

[flyerhawk]

He's also a good defender and rebounder. I think he'd find a way to make an impact.

True. I don't mean to slag on Kuzma. He's a solid player. But I think you would agree that bringing in PG and Lebron would make the Lakers a pretty thin squad, barring some pretty massive shakeup.

I have, other people haven’t lol. I knew it was clean from the start so yeah it doesn’t matter
