i dont want to say it but i will, lebron looks scared out there :/

At least there's one other not blind person on this board.

Yeah I'm definitely reaching about Lebron? 4 points so far. If it weren't for Battier and Chalmers having a hot hand, we would be down. Lebron is not in attack mode. He is settling too much and is being passive.

Sorry if you guys don't like to read this but it's true. I hope this changes in the next 3 quarters but Lebron is not being Lebron right now. He's playing like he did against Dallas last year so far.

@WallaceNBA_ESPN: Spoelstra certainly a student of the coaching game. He's already taken two plays out of Doc Rivers playbook that led to Heat scores.

i saw screens that ray gets, we run this play for mario

Lbj def doesn't have the same look as game6

He needs to be more aggressive and sure of what hes going to do when he makes a move. He seems pretty engaged on defense though so I won't get worried yet since shooters were making it rain a bit but I expect it to pick up.

These no-fouls are the bane of my existence.

[Wade2k6]

Durant isn't in the game, why is LeBron? Makes absolutely no sense. Perfect time to get him some rest with Durant off the court.
