Anyone know a site where I can watch the game, be it streamed or via torrent? Sucks i had to work a night shift, but yea, I'd really appreciate it.

Yeah me too guys. I got out of class at 8 and was so happy that I'll catch the game but I forgot I had work right after lmao.

google + nba torrents + first link = good.


i guess it might take a day for the game to show up but if you want it it is there eventually.


keep in mind I am not going to post links but a simple search engine thing will do it

Can someone make a gif of lebron swaggin off the three fingers after the pass to Shane for the three.


Lol it reminded me of the wade crossover step back and turn around and walk off before the shot even goes thru the net he did on evan turner in the playoffs.

Only thing I still get nervous about, is Miami seems to always let teams back into the game. Granted they made some baskets when they needed to, they still brought a 20+ point lead down to 10 at one point because of stupid shots. They seemed to take way to many 3s in the second half, and a lot that were just awful. Although they didn't fully blow the lead, I just wish they could go up 20 and keep it.

Still blows my mind that Coach Brown would've left Kobe, Pau, and Bynum in the game that they didn't really seem to have a chance in. I know I just said they brought it down to 10, but that was with 2:30 left or less. It seems to me they should've just rested them and prep for Orlando.

Usually I would agree with you but tonight they did do a good job of closing out. Only time it got down to 10 was with 2 minutes left b/c Kobe hit a few circus shots. Even so it never felt close.

Reading this article on ESPN it shocks me how much respect they still give to Kobe. In terms of his career accomplishments I have great respect for him. But to watch him on the court with Lebron and try to compare that they have similar impacts on a game is laughable. The only way Kobe can currently impact a game is by hitting contested jumpers. While on the other hand Lebron can do essentially everything better than everyone else on the court.

Lebron is Godlike

I just watched the game on my League Pass and I'm honestly more shocked about the Lakers' play than anything else. Their defense is subpar, their offense pathetic, I mean they've always had a couple of rough stretches in a season so I don't wanna overreact to anything, but they're not even close to the team they were in the past 5-6 years. Somehow, it'd be kind of sad to see them fall of the map, which is why I hope this was only a really terrible night for them.
Regarding our play, the three point shooting really helped us again. Hitting nine obviously brought us a lot of points but it also opened up the lanes for us and gave us a lot of room for drives and pick and rolls. Additionally, we were rotating well defensively, even though the Lakers' poor outside shooting really played into our cards because we could pack the paint at all costs the way Spo loves to do it.

Losing Odom hurt them bad but never underestimate the negative impact a coach can have. Brown is all about defense and is incompetent when it comes to running an offense.

Everytime the Lakers lose against the Heat since last year, some excuse has came up, it's been annoying.

Their offense under construction huh? It's Mike Brown, they are going to have their offense under constructive until the playoffs....

And yeah 3 point shooting got this team a somewhat comfortable lead. There's nothing you can do about long 3's the other team jacks up.

Bench was big, Battier was fantastic

On to the next game, win them all at home!

I'm more excited about next week... Knicks and Bulls....

[Vertical Limit]

So when will TNT stop hyping up Lakers vs Heat games? They have not been the "Classic" they expect it to be.

[kyphi]

remember the year the Heat had maybe one nationally televised game? They can hype all they want; I'm enjoying it

LeBron had 31 Pts, 8 Reb, 8 Ast, 4 Stl & 3 Blk. In the last 25 seasons, only 2 players have hit those marks in a game twice: LeBron & Jordan

no I'm not saying he's Jordan, but damn what a stat line

[kobethewinner]

Pau just cost us a game.
