    Loved how Marc Jackson was talking about how Lebron knew he was an assist away from a triple double and that’s why he was still in the game.

    Then Lebron proceeds to aggressively take it to the rim with a scoring mindset to stave off some last minute desperation from the Heat. And then once the game is firmly in hand, he’s the one who calls the timeout to get the starters out of the game. He wasn’t hunting a triple double, the near triple double was just the natural result of winning basketball.

    No triple double. Can we trade him for Hart, Ball, and Ingram? Asking for a friend.

    Bron was just feeding shooters today, and let AD be AD. I expect Bron to totally dominate game 2, and rip their hearts out.

    Teammates stepped up... Had four fouls middle of the third. Had enough of a cushion for him to pace. Restored order at around the 5 minute mark when we were just playing the clock to end the game.

    James harping on teammates on defense...telling Pope to use both hands to catch. Late fourth quarter stuff to maintain focus. Leadership and accountability, right Erik Spoelstra?

    Have to add that there was an ESPN special on The Decision last night. It was that twerp Bill Simmons who hatched the idea in the first place pitching it to James and his cronies.

    Bron copped all the heat (pun not intended) for the ideas people around him gave him.

    Used to be Katherine Hepburn’s “compound” I read it referred to today, when she was in her prime movie career.

    This site is my media source so I don't have to trawl through the 'net. Saw the news did not bother to find out whose it was before. Good stuff LT.

    Howard Hughes wound up owning it through his movie studio days but never lived there it also said and sold or gave it to her, as apparently they were an item for awhile before he later went recluse and grew out his hair and fingernails.

    liked to see him get some mid-post touches against those smaller defenders. need to milk that from both of our guys. very hard for them to defend those spots with their preferred personnel.

    Miami can have all the Butlers, Crowders, Iggys of the world but Lebron will just keep hunting Herro and Duncan Robinson

    I used to hate that guy who made that LouWill hunting video because it exposed Bron's MO but it's apparent that the opposing teams can do nothing about it.

    That's how the game is played. It's Bron's job to use his BB IQ to exploit their weakness. It's their problem to solve.
