It’s why I’m not that high on Mitch as a core piece.

I said "jump," he said "how high?!" I know it's a low sample but that's a ridiculous number.

Speaking of "Jump," anyone see Van Halen died? This **** year, man. That dude could play.

Read on Twitter

Give him the MVP (if they win it). Lebron dominates so many possessions but AD making big plays the whole playoff run

On the post game pod with Lowe & Windy (Nurse was a guest) they were closing by asking each person what to look out for. Windy chose a monster 3PT game from MIA b/c they hadn’t had one yet. Here’s how they did so far. I think that’s a good guess. Maybe they get a 50% performance where Robinson and/or Herro go off from deep.

Game 1 11-35 (31.4%)
Robinson 0-3
Herro 2-8
Rest of team 9-24

Game 2 11-27 3PA (40.7%)
Robinson 2-7
Herro 1-3
Rest of team 8-17

Game 3 12-34 3PA (35.3%)
Robinson 3-10
Herro 2-7
Rest of team 7-17

Game 4 11-32 3PA (34.4%)
Robinson 3-6
Herro 3-7
Rest of team 5-19

Did he play? I didn't really notice him but I do remember KO hitting a bunch of outside shots and helping provide spacing for Jimmy to work inside

If Miami is crazy enough to think they are better off without Bam I would gladly take him off their hands.

AD/Lebron are just too much. Not sure there is much they can do unless Miami plays out of their minds and/or Lakers just have some off nights.

He played in both games Bam missed. I posted the results above. He's been ridiculously effective for the same reasons. Defense and spacing.

I'm pretty happy that the NBA is getting awful ratings for the finals after rigging AD to the Lakers :lol:

Yea, somehow the Lakers always get these things gift wrapped to them. Guess its hard to say no to playing with Lebron. Helped them both out

That and justt an easy path to the finals, then once you get there you play an injured team.

People were saying Lebron had an easy path to the Finals in the East. They said he couldn't be the King of the West. Now that he's in the West and made easy work of every team in the way he's got another easy path? At some point you gotta realize that it only looks easy because he's that good.

It's only been easy because he had Wade, Irving and AD holding his hand in the playoffs without them what has he won?
