Meh, not impressive.

Really hope the Lakers don't have their usual game 1 against the Clippers. Is it really too much to ask that they take the initiative and come out looking to kill for once?

Davis didn't even try and it wouldn't have mattered, Rockets got destroyed.

LeBron is insanely good man.

This feels like a playoff series from the 15-17 Cavs.

Excellent supporting cast but it really feels like this guy brings another level of intelligence, ability, and leadership that helps make it easy to execute a game plan.

Now that I’m typing this feeling that’s exactly it.

LeBron teams have insane gameplan execution in the postseason that you just don’t see from any other player’s teams.

If you are have fatal flaws as a team, you are probably finished against LeBron. You’re just not getting off the hook.

Bron's looked good. AD's seems to be coming back to earth.

I really expected this series to be a lot closer. I’m not sure if the Rockets were overrated or the Lakers are just that damn good. Probably a bit of both.

The same guy who scoffs at notions of Lebron's demise was certain the Lakers could lose after 1 loss.

Hilarious.

I picked the Lakers in 6 and thought it'd be closer.

I think Houston just didn't double AD enough and their defense just got worse each game. Their volume of threes seemed to get less and less too.

The Lakers definitely played really well too.

I still think Clippers should be the favorites, but the Lakers definetely closed the gap.

The last time Lebron lost to a non historically great team in 2011, so will see

Lebron closed out this series averaging

25.8 PPG
10.4 RPG
7.4 APG (Vs 4.2 TOPG)
2.0 SPG
1.8 BPG

On 51.1/29.6/71.1 which rounds out to 60.4 TS%
I came here to do two things: get lost and slice **** up & I'm all out of directions.

If it is the Clippers they can't play around. I think this is why the Clippers haven't played great. They really waiting and wanting the Lakers all year long. This is who they are going to go all out for it seems.

You thought they were going to lose.

You should show Lebron some more faith.

And MPG still only at 35.6 - pace was also down in this series just above 90.

He'll be fresh for the old 40-42 MPG next round and/or finals if needed.
