2 blocks and a steal vastly understates how good AD was on defense in that half.

"LeBron can't repeat a performance like that...Heat have just looked like the better team after G2...LA's offense figured out...They can't and won't stop Butler..."

You were saying the same things in the Houston series though.

The OGs remember how LeBron was predicted to be a "bust" coming out of HS by many. It's crazy that he not only lived up to the unfair amount of pressure he was given as an 18 year old but surpassed all of it.

"Solution-based discussions" at halftime of a Finals Game 6 blowout is such a Spo-ism :lol:

Nah, keep pouring it on. I don't care what the margin is, LeBron and AD should stay in until the very end.

The way leads can evaporate so rapidly in today's league, they won't come out until early in the 4th, unless they open this lead up to 35-40 before that.

Shooters are so bad in the Lakers that not even 30+ ahead they can make them!

LeBron is hunting the triple double. Honestly, I wish he'd just go for 40 and forget the assists, because he's a lot more fun to watch when he's forcing his way to the rim.

Bad foul by AD

AD has had Bam in the torture chamber this series.

Nope, I'm tired of him thinking he can take anyone off the dribble from the 3 line. He should shoot the 3 or pass it off.

He's about 0 from 10 on 3 shot fakes and drives. Most are turnovers.

You sound like you're just tired of him getting isolations PERIOD........I don't entirely disagree with you there. I've long thought they do that too often.

I'm just saying: you get a defender whom you've got 5" and 25-30 lbs on IN THE POST, I want either a quick spin and attack or back down and get a closer shot (even if it's just a closer fadeaway).

He's sort of "got away with" all these shots during these playoffs by [mostly] being on an absolute heater from the mid-range (shooting ~15% better from 16-23' than history has shown is truly sustainable for him). But I'm cringing every time he does it.

Don't think 3 more assists are possible with the way this team shoots. But won't stop LeBron from trying

It’s starting to feel real. It’s been a pleasure gentlemen.

Only 1 three point attempt for LeBron tonight. Everything at the rim.

THE KING!

dreamshake · Post #1256 » by **dreamshake** » Mon Oct 12, 2020 1:21 am

I love Mark Jackson going on about Vogel's job being easy because he has LeBron & AD. Like . . . do you not remember you're the dude that Kerr had to replace to win with Steph, Klay & Draymond?

Reminds me what Duncan did on Martin in 2003 finals. I just hope he'll get back from that, because Davis completely ereased him from that series.
