    Mixed bag, but he was mostly aggressive in the fourth.

    there's zero chance they sit either one of them, but i wouldn't be against it. lebron's clearly playing hurt but he's going to give it everything he's got because he knows this is probably his last chance at a finals run

    Stop shooting threes, park yourself down low where the Lilliputian GS can’t protect the rim to save their lives

    gotta love the confidence though

    Lebron had to be on the ball with DLo having a head scratcher, Reaves taking ♾️ to get going, DS also missing a bunch of passes.

    Basically the offense kept up with GS once Lebron was out back into PG

    That last one was one of the stupidest shots ever. If he could just take 4 threes a game, even if he went 1-4, it would be so so much better than this stupid 2-9 and 1-8 BS.

    In 6 of the 10 games this playoffs:
    2-9
    1-8
    1-9
    1-7
    0-4
    1-8

    Hurts to see him not having the explosion to make the Warriors pay for putting Steph on him, but still a pretty good game all things considered.

    Thought he pushed the pace and helped build the momentum that brought the team back from that 12 point deficit. Also hit some clutch free throws in situations where he’d historically split them.

    I will repeat what I said before Game 2, just change Game 2 to Game 5.

    And then we will win in 6.

    Won’t happen but they may pull them early if it isn’t looking good

    He got us a great look on almost every possession targeting Curry in the 4th.

    If he was healthy , we would gentlemen sweep every team in the playoffs

    Not to mention that exhausted Curry. He shot terribly down the stretch.

    He’s got great technique and good height and strength to get that “midi” sky hook off a lot more frequently and in that close. It looks like it could be a high percentage shot for him if he would use it more often.

    Old man set the table..the young bucks took us home. I'm good with the Kang taking a few bad shots.

    He can get that shot all day. Just park your a** on the elbow near the paint and go to work.
