LeBron’s been the GM of the Cavs for forever and I know there’s this narrative that LeBron wanted all these new guys. But I thought this was the sole workings Koby Altman protecting himself and the roster in case LeBron leaves. He figured he could get some young talent like Nance and Hood for his old aging veterans.


Lebron didn't want to play with the other guys.


Weerd. But this also was a move by Altman getting young talent planning for a potential future without LeBron.

George is a better fit in Philadelphia than LeBron would be. Much easier path to the Finals in the East. But LA is home. He’ll turn 28 next week.

Cavs-Sixers in ECF and Warriors-Jazz in WCF--reigning champs on each side vs the new hotness on the block.

The score of the NBA channel live game was updating faster on TNT than the actual broadcast.

Well he mucked several possessions in the final minutes and got away with a goal tend. But yeah, nice redemption with that shot and a great game overall.

Agreed. I think he’ll be a laker but philly makes more sense.

Durant bought a house in the LA area. I think he can opt out of his current deal this Summer.

I think he’d rather spend his summers in Los Angeles as opposed to Oakland.

Absolute number one priority for Utah in game 6 has to be to keep Gobert out of foul trouble.

He is the key to their team IMO. Those drives to the hole are negated with him in there.

I agree..I hope he goes to philly and they take down GS. I wouldn't write off Boston yet though..assuming Kyrie can get his knees good and Heyword comes back good.

It's because the East is finally good, it's been what 15 years? Since the East was respectable.

Wow, Lebron is a massive douche. Running around the arena, separating himself from his teammates so he could celebrate HIS accomplishment with the crowd, pathetic. Jumping on the scorer table after hitting a shot to win a non elimination game in the first round, pathetic. Having a courtside interview where you immediately bring up a game from the past where you were just as awesome in winning the game at the end, pathetic.

Great player obviously, but a transparent and massive douche.

man I got all excited when the Jazz went up 25 in the 3rd quarter, was looking forward to watching the end of OKC and hopefully some poor sportsmanship along the way. So much for that plan.

Odd second half for Utah. Gobert completely fucked his team with an awful 5th foul midway through the 4th quarter. YOu could see Rubio yelling at him after for being such an idiot. Mitchell wasn't as assertive as he's been all series. Rubio shot too much.


What's up with Utah having two different home court floors? I just noticed that the other day, thought it was really cool that they do that. Love the sunset uniforms they wear on occassion. Does any other team hvae multiple floors they can use at home?

Yeah by next year (Possibly this one) The top teams in the East will be on par with the Top teams in the West. If they are Boston and Philly it will take me back to the days when I first start watching the NBA as a little kid. Philly and Boston was a helluva rivalry in the Early 80's. Best in the NBA in fact.

It would only have been replayed if goaltending was called on the play. Otherwise it's a live ball and they can't stop the ensuing action for a review. Also it should be noted that even if they gave VO the basket the Pacers would to have lost if LBJ went on to hit the 3 (assuming a similar possession).

You're making a pretty massive assumption that LBJ would hit that shot again if the game situation was that they were down 2 instead of tied. Makes it a much more pressure filled shot.

this isn't a reflection on LeBron, but good golly, this Pacers team is crud. I really thought the Cavs would be better after the trades they made, but I don't see them getting past the next round the way this is going...

Bucks force Game 7. Can't wait to see the Sixers go to the ECF.
