Ugh this TSN commentary is unlistenable. Not even talking about the game, just the refs.

That's why the 3s are so important - a simple **** fake like that gets a dunk

It's interesting. I think he's really trying to make plays for others, and it's screwing with his head. Like on that double-dribble call, he saw Lebron and thought about the pass, but that messed with his handle and he made a bush-league dribbling mistake. He has actually made some really nice dishes in this game, it could be that he is really trying to turn it around. It's freaking amazing when he does make a good pass- he could be a legit top 7ish player if he actually did that consistently. His handle is so devastating, if he just figured out how to not have complete tunnel vision to the basket...

I haven't seen this level of passing from the high post since prime Webber on the Kings.

Man, he turned that horrendous drive into 3. Extremely lucky - unless he recognized that the Raps sold out to stop him

I was 95% positive that was the case but I didn't really believe it myself. Gotta admire the consistency of averaging 25 a game for the year without a single 40 point explosion to pad the stats.

Lebron is so freaking broke at the line. I'm just praying he cleans that up for the Finals.
