He didn't even get hit.


I have no idea how people enjoy watching LeBron especially in the playoffs. Dude legit makes the league less enjoyable. He's probably the most pampered superstar ever, it's just so obvious and absurd how the refs are calling everything whenever some is around him. I saw at least 3 non-existent fouls in LeBron's favor so far, super soft ones at that.
Good assessment:

This cavs game is a lot of fun, so far. Wish we were given the pleasure, though.

Always on Espn and abc televised games, the crowd in the background pulses and blurs out during game play. Never experience this with other channels. Annoying.

It sucks both Hayward, Smart and Kyrie are out. We would easily have run through the east imo. We would have given Golden State all they could handle with Curry having injuries himself.

I still think the Cavs will win this series, but man. I thought they would come out and play really well today.

I've only half been watching, but 4 times now i've seen LBJ jogging up the court super slow while the pacers had a 5 on 4.

This is something LeBron has always done when he is frustrated.

Who would have thought Larry Nance Jr would be the best player Cleveland acquired at the deadline.

I hate that the Cavs came back. I was greatly enjoying the blowout.

Hope I get to enjoy it again soon and they lose by 20. :-)

Pacers up 14.
Looking more and more like LeBron's first loss on the first round since forever.

I'm impressed with Indy. Every time the Cavs have made a run today, the Pacers have answered.
