I'm all for boring as long as #17 awaits.

+1 Catch dem damn Celtics. In my mind we already have 17 so this is icing.

Geez if you didnt watch the game you would think Lebron had a bad game or almost lost.


The box scores are so misleading with this team. They were on pace to win by 70 or 80, dominating the paint, free throw line, and shooting around 75-80% from 3.

The game is over quickly and they coast so badly that they end up looking human and it looks like a somewhat competitive game by the time it’s over.

What's important is they step it up a notch when the opponent is getting close.

That’s what I really love about tonight’s win.

It wasn’t an out of this world effort by Lebron and AD.
We just dominated the boards and our team defense was really sharp after we came back from Miami’s early lead.

Don’t care who’s available for the Heat for the rest of this series we gotta keep elevating each game!

3 more!

Nice for Vogel to get minutes at the end for Dudley, Cook, and JR Smith.

Didn't he recently say this season Lebron is at best the 10th best player of all time? The guy is a clown for sure.

He has Skip level ridiculous takes but I get the feeling he's not even doing it just for the attention.

People complaining about the Defense though, they had a 44 point turn around by the middle of the third quarter .. There's pretty much no team in history that doesn't lose intensity by quite a bit when that happens.

Much of that dwindling lead is Vogel playing that stupid micro lineup for extended minutes with no bigs while Bam st out and we could have been living in the post and sit most of the starters by the 4th but instead missed 13 or so three's in a row.

The Heat's 3 best players are all hurt as well now whether they play or not. I'm sure AD smells blood and you will see a much better start in game 2. This team is so ridiculously focused, a blowout win is not going to satisfy anything after tonight is over imo.

They always do. That’s why they’re 55-0 or whatever it is when they’re leading going into the 4th. They can’t lose in a close game because they can summon unreal shooting whenever it’s necessary.

I really don't care how many minutes LBJ and AD will play in this series. They will play the minutes necessary for us to win it all. If it means 45 than its 45. We are playing for the ring here. Its not start of the season.

I know, how about those guys who complain about the refs constantly also? I am glad I never do that.

Well, that was tasty. After the first six minutes, you know ESPN was writing our obituary.

On a side note, I have found the tasty crow of DG rather satisfying as a late night snack.
.

Side joke -

Past couple games when DG has started slow ive said im staring at the fork ...he immediately hits a 3

I missed the first half hour of the game, but aside from the high point differential, the Lakers just looked like they had an easy time handling the Heat, easier than they had with Denver, even though they coasted in the end

I was hoping for Iguadala or Jae Crowder to be in a Lakers uniform to help against Kawhi in the WCF.
