    clear energy conservation game. i think he'll be better in game 6, but we wasted a good one from AD. both teams have the blueprints now; it's about who steps up and executes.

    Agree.

    It was nice to see AD that engaged from the opening.

    Quick pit stop in Miami before coming back to LA please. Dude looked physically and mentally tired out there. We don’t need an amazing game from him but we do need him to be smarter… those 5 first half turnovers and 8 missed 3s hurt bad

    Unfortunately when players are gassed they usually make bad decisions as well. Comes from a brain starved for oxygen...lol. Once we closed in we missed a few shots that let them build the lead back pretty quick. We didn't have enough to come back again. What I do like about Lebron right now is he looks driven. He wants this championship and feels they can get it. Some years he has disengaged when he doesn't believe his team has a legitimate chance. I'm not seeing that this year. He will come back hard in game six. I am confident we win that game. My biggest concern is can AD put together back to back games. If he can give us a game six like this and with the home crowd inspiring our bench guys we should be good.

    AD was amazing tonight but I thought Lebron was better on defense tonight and he was really good on offense.

    The interesting thing is if DLo is cooking and you got AR next to him that means Lebron doesn't have to expend much energy on offense. He doesn't have to create off the dribble or post-up dudes: just be an off-ball destroyer on cuts, open shots, etc. That will leave more in the tank for defense.

    So glad to see him not settle for so many long threes.
    Great game.

    LeBron is 31-0 when his team has a 2 game lead in a series. That’s nuts.

    That reverse slam though. Wowza. He just ripped their hearts out. Maybe don't poke the bear idiots.

    Very efficient, great defense.

    Fairly certain he walked down the tunnel just before the game ended, I liked it.. they were speed bagging the Laker players nuts and incredibly rude by Brooks.

    Wowza loved him looking like he’s finally getting back and how active and scary at times he was on defense. How true if others are carrying the load on offense he can put out far more on D. But he killed it on offense as well. BY FAR …. the most dominant duo in the league when he and AD are healthy.

    No way …. you saw nut shots again or cheap shots? I didn’t notice. That would be reprehensible and they deserved every point of that 40 point beat down and to be locked up like that.

    You can see and feel how bad Lebron wants this championship. He was locked in and making sure we did not go to Memphis. We have the best team, the best defense and we got big Mo. Going to be hard for any team to stop this train. When Lebron plays defense like that the rest of the guys will follow and we are unbeatable.
