- Just said the Pacers took a timeout as the Cavaliers were dribbling the ball up the floor.

Marv, you're a legend, but it's time to hang up the toupee.

Listening to Marv Albert now is like watching Hakeem Olajuwon when he played for the Toronto Raptors.

THIS. Best analogy ever.

Oh damn. Greg Popovich's wife just passed away. She'd been ill for a while. I had no idea. RIP, and prayers out to Pop and his family.

Imagine how the Magic must feel. They traded Oladipo for Serge freaking Ibaka.

Speaking of the Magic, hey 'other' Magic, I think the Celtics proved that we have 'really good young players', too! ( see headlines on top of page)

Tough to win when you get out-officiated. Pacers are going to give them fits this series though....

Love must have injured himself at least 3 times tonight. This left hand one now could be an issue, as I believe that’s the hand he broke.

I still think Lebron wins this series lol. I know it looks bad, but unless he loses I count on him winning.

Pacers are going to win at home. Cavs barely beat them in this game even after that 18 point lead. If they've lost Kevin love for any amount of time lebrons going fishing early. One can dream anyway

Indy loses by three. That JR Smith late layup was backbreaking. I like how Marv was yelling about how JR Smith stole that ball from Oladipo. More like it was a lucky gift that Oladipo threw away. JR did nothing but collect the miscue.

he also got that hustle rebound to save that possession. put the clamps on dame. one more important thing he did, he told AD a piece of his mind when the blaze tied it up late, the game was all pels from there. AD needs a guy like that, someone who will give his all in the playoffs and demand the same from the star player!


Rondo also with 6 TOs last night compared to TRo's 0 TOs through 78 minutes of tournament play. He had the big shots in the clutch, but so did TRo in game 1, when the C's were in a tight game.

Yes, it is fun to see Rondo still able to play, but I take TRo at this point for sure.



wait, what? what did I say about roze? just giving props to RR for a good job. I said nothing about wanting him back, I don't even like RR all that much after the things he said when he left.


Rondo gets turnovers because he is a floor general - 6 is still a lot. TRo is a scorer playing the 1. He isn’t really generating looks for anybody. The zero TOS is great but let’s not overrate it too much.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Wow, that's a lame move asking LeBron right after the game about Pop's wife.
