Kevin Love is battling with Blake Griffin for most fragile PF in the league.

It should be a good one. I hope that the West goes 7 too and they probably will with Paul out.

I think they are fine without Love vs Boston.
He's not himself in this series.

Jeff Green can take his role, he is quicker and better *defender* tho not a better shooter but he's good at cutting and plays really hard.

If Nance will play like he did tonight. Its a game over to Cs

missed FTs and really terrible stretches by Morris and Smart cost the Celtics a winnable game

also didn't notice Jaylen at all after his crazy 1st quarter until late in the 4th

P.S: Which game 6 had better performance by Lebron? This or 2012 in Boston? I take the 2012 game

2012, no one has had that much pressure to win a game.

Man, this Celtics team. WOW. They've been so resilient and shown great poise and execution when it counts. It's truly shocking, considering how young this team is and how many hurdles they've faced. I counted them out several times this year, but they've dismissed every preconceived notion the media has thrown at them. I'd take Lebron in a game 7 against any team, but these Cs are just not scared of anything. They gotta be the favorites in game 7, despite Lebron's godly powers.

Love been horrible so I don’t think he’s the diffeecne maker. The Cavs can run with love out

He's been the Cavs 2nd best player in Boston and it's not close.

Also LeBron actually disses out assists... remind us how many assists KD has had in the WCF so far?

Prior to this season I've always just been dead set that Jordan is the GOAT (still kinda am) BUT I honestly don't know if I've ever seen anyone play such COMPLETE basketball. Starting to feel like Jordan's prime was more dominant particularily as a scorer but LeBron's actual IQ and understanding of the game, I don't think even MJ got to that or played at that level.

If LeBron was as a clutch as he is now (and had a "Pippen"/top 50 EVER player as long as MJ did, nvm the tougher Finals competition for LBJ), I think as an OVERALL player he might be the greatest I've seen. Maybe just a prisoner of the moment but yes, it's truly masterful all the little intricacies he understands n applies.

Hill has been there second best player overall

He's just better imho. I agree, I've never seen a more complete player. When the jumpshot is falling he has literally everything.

I hate that for most people it's always going to boil down to RINGZZZZ. I try to picture what LeBron's version of the '96 Bulls would be and it sucks seeing what he actually has with this Cavs squad. Imagine him with a top 5 GOAT coach, HOF sidekick on the level of Pippen who complemented his skill-set extremely well, depth with guys like Rodman, Kukoc, Harper, etc.

What's with all of the comments like these? It's game 7. Do or die. If there's a time to show up, this is it.

Context.

Shooting 22-25 shots while having Klay, Steph, and Draymond as teammates, and losing btw, is inexcusable.
