    so...lebron needs to play off the ball more and when he has it, play out of the post more. who'da thunk it?

    i mean, by far. playing on a bad foot with a team that was basically entirely reconstructed in february with a rookie head coach? i still don't believe it's happening, but it did, it would be totally insane.

    Has any other team won a title starting every single series on the road?

    It would be impressive for the entire team if we got this done. I love the way Lebron played in game 6 though, he attacked in the post and only took good threes. He looked very athletic

    Blah first time this playoffs he's blown the chance to finish off the other team: 2 missed FT, in and out on pullup layup (man that was closing to going in and instead Nuggest gets the break way dunk), and the pullup 3.

    At least they found something: he can get into the paint at will against basically any defender on Denver.

    Why did he have the settle for that 3 on Murray? Could have gotten a way better shot but he loves those hero threes

    Frustrating as the game changed when he started attacking everyone off the dribble. made life hell for Murray when switched on to him.

    the 2 missed FT's hurt as well: he's been so good in the 4th this post-season at the line. Sigh.

    The hero 3 and the TO were painful.

    He was the only Laker who was interested in figuring out how to score in the first Q.

    They can't handle him inside. Some good tape for game 2.

    TO was a loose ball off a deflected pass as Reaves was tryna hit the corner man... whatever

    The damn three didn't need to happen though. Oh well, I feel better about this game. The team can win this series.

    Actually in the replay, Bron had possession, and Murray knocked it loose
