The Heat's one big lineup allows OKC to play their big 3 + have Thabo guard Wade or Lebron. It really looks like that's going to work out great for them.

No, Durant scored 36 on 20 shots while dominating the 4th quarter.

In regards to Lebron, you hit it right on the head. Frankly, i thought he could've done worse.

if you don't think 30/9/4 is a great game then your expectations of lebron are as realistic as the movie prometheus

Not when you consider how great he was defensively

Wade was trash on the offensive end and somehow managed to be even worse on the defensive end.

we shouldnt ignore that Bosh did basically nothing tonight..

10/5 in 34 minutes


Agreed. Wade hurt more tho. It wasnt even that he was missing shots, its that he was hogging the ball in times where they NEEDED to get it to Lebron. Lebron would hit some shots and then he wouldnt see it for 3-4 minutes bc Wade was firing shots. He completely took Miami out of any rhythm they were gathering in the 3rd and directly let OKC back in the game.

When his shot is off, he HAS to give the ball up or play to his strengths (just like Westbrook) and drive.

ETA dont get me started on his defense either, it was non-existant

Bosh is no longer getting on the boards, but instead thinks he's a shooting guard after last game.

Westbrook Dominated the shite out of the 3rd, he kept them in the game, he was clearly the difference maker.

It's going to be so annoying to hear 7 vs 17 in the 4th. Durant didn't have to do anything in the 3rd quarter bc Westbrook carried the team. Lebron doesn't have that luxery he has to go 100% every quarter or the heat are done.


Yeah, the real difference between Lebron and Durant is that Lebron has to carry a larger offensive load and he's the Heat's defensive stopper.

Didn't van Gundy pick the 105-94 score before the game?



I'm pretty sure it was Steven A. Smith in his pre-game debate with Skip Bayless.

lebron had a great game from start to finish


lebron wasnt hitting his jumper, really despite getting open nearly every time he wanted.

he could play better and he will need to play better for them to have a chance.

id rate his game a 7.5/10.

He definitely was getting pushed out of position to prevent offensive boards.

Question: could OKC potentially sweep this series?

I originally had OKC in 6, but I'm thinking now this could be total domination by OKC.

They are playing at home, and were favored

The series is probably going to go at least 6
