Btw, if Lebron had more games like this (even in closely contested matches) then I'd probably be a fan of his or at the very least have a greater respect for him.

You're right. 45 points on 19 for 26 should be the bare minimum for LBJ.

 

[Slurmer]

What did Van Gundy just say????

Wades stats dont reflect the way he played tonight...he was worse

 

[friskykillface]

whelp


:/


smh 1-13 on threes



haha idiots leaving, if they lose game 7 thats the last time the big 3 will be on the court

 

[Nobility]

Game 7 will be good.

 

[Byakuya769]

You're right. 45 points on 19 for 26 should be the bare minimum for LBJ.

Nah, I'm disappointed with his effort. No triple double???

 

[ActStriker]

Just didn't show up tonight.

Sigh

 

[Vahagn]

Phase them, how? The big 3 aren't going to just pack it in after a single half against nay team or players. Come on.

Lebron dominated the game. Flat out. Yes, the Celtics didn't unravel in the 1st half, because they would never do so, but by the end of the 3rd they did because James never let up. Boston started rushing their sets, their shots, etc.

Fucking give credit where it's do. Boston tried to make this a low scoring slugfest and Lebron had none of it. If Lebron shoots even 50% for 3 quarters, Boston wins this game. Lebron willed his team to a victory.

Calm the fuck down pony. I've posted at least 5 or 6 times talking about how incredible this performance was. Don't agree with me "The Celtics didn't unravel in the 1st half" and then proceed to talk shit.


You've been dead wrong on a bunch of random claims in the past - I wasn't right, but I wasn't DEAD WRONG. Lebron's first half performance didn't phase the C's. But Lebron's 3 quarters and the Celtics ineptitude did. That's an accurate assessment even you agreed with

 

[twinturbo2]

This game is over.

 

[ph33nix]

I just want to believe tonight's game means anything, but at least we live another 2 days.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Game 7 will be good.

Yep. It wont be an easy ride like this one. The Heat better be ready for a huge fight. The ones we usually lose in the last moment.

 

[DJ88]

Infinite respect for what James did tonight. Completely ripped the heart out of Boston fans tonight, and shut up all the critics.

But all it's done is buy them another 48 hours. Game 7 will decide if it really means anything.

 

[iamshadowlark]

I guess Spo is tryna to send a message. They don't really look like their padding stats.


Anyways, LBJ did wtf he had to do and came and got this shit when nearly everybody counted him out. Kudos. Im not particularly fond of everybody else but at least they rode LBJ good. Lets go get this shit in 7.

Wow it only takes a 45 point, 15 rebound, 5 assist game every night to get your respect? You should raise your standards.

 

[Judderman]

This game is over.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

2 minutes of this pickup game so boring..

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

I just want to believe tonight's game means anything, but at least we live another 2 days.

You guys need to relax. It's all good. You just broke Boston, fans leaving the stadium early...Damn

 

[CrazyDogg77]

Does anybody think LeBron will be able to replicate this game Saturday?

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Pierce was a joke tonight which absolutely killed Boston.

Does anybody think LeBron will be able to replicate this game Saturday?

Has he ever had back to back games like that?

 

[thekad]

Does anybody think LeBron will be able to replicate this game Saturday?

...

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

JUWANNAAAA

 

[benjipwns]

Should have got fifty. And a few more assists, was far too selfish. Didn't let anyone else on the team get going, nor did he allow James Jones to get more time by playing the whole game.

 

[Mxrz]

Dammit, LeBron. Get up. Get 50. Break their spirit. You think MJ would just sit?

 

[The Chosen One]

Is Lebron starting to use some spray on chia pet hair to hide his receding hairline? Something doesn't look right.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Norris Cole slipping and sliding into everyone. lol

 

[Herpes Reasons]

We need the power of the konex in the next game

 

[RBH]

Van Gundy :lol :lol

 

[LuchaShaq]

If Lebron has 26-8-6 next game on 50%ish shooting and great D I fully expect idiots to scream "SEE HE CHOKED GAME SIX DOESN'T COUNT".

 

[Iadien]

Does anybody think LeBron will be able to replicate this game Saturday?

I don't think it's possible, but he'll have to be great and Wade will have to play better.

No, I was referring to this:

"But that Lebron first half was the least impactful psychological dominant performance I've ever seen. "

It was very impactful because it frustrated the Cs. They couldn't dictate the game on their terms.

I wasn't referring to the notion of them quitting when I said that.

 

[MiamiWesker]

You guys need to relax. It's all good. You just broke Boston, fans leaving the stadium early...Damn

Just like Boston broke us game 5. No relaxing. This team is bipolar.

 

[Sanjuro]

Pierce was a joke tonight which absolutely killed Boston.

He wasn't the lone reason. He is hurt and the refs took away the paint, which is his bread and butter. Still, he couldn't hit any shots.

Rondo turnovers, Pietrus frozen, and KJ's shooting were large factors as well.

AGAIN, the Heat played terrible tonight. Terrible. LeLBron beasted and we played worse.

 

[PBY]

Yeah the refs...

 

[weekend_warrior]

was that Matt Damon waving the flag?

He wasn't the lone reason. He is hurt and the refs took away the paint, which is his bread and butter. Still, he couldn't hit any shots.

Rondo turnovers, Pietrus frozen, and KJ's shooting were large factors as well.

AGAIN, the Heat played terrible tonight. Terrible. LeLBron beasted and we played worse.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

It's been like that for awhile.

 

[Sanjuro]

Yeah the refs...

Don't think you're reading correctly.

 

[darkside31337]

Lets Go Celtics > Good Job, Good Effort

 

[friskykillface]

lol i wish Pierce said "we ain't going back to Miami" last game, smh Pierce

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

jesus dude.

 

[Omzz]

"one of the best crowds in pro sports"

lol

 

[Resilient]

Lol shut the fuck up with this ref crying. Refs did nothing tonight to hold back the game, save a few stupid techs like when James slammed the ball. They were fine tonight.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Juwan Howard lol, Didn't even try or couldn't

 

[Sanjuro]

jesus dude.

What's the problem?

 

[rando14]

Fuck these fouls, 7 seconds left and a 20 pt lead you assholes.

 

[The Chosen One]

You're right. 45 points on 19 for 26 should be the bare minimum for LBJ.

It's not about the stats.

Basically everyone played like ass yet Lebron put the team on his shoulder using a wide array of shots and willing them to victory in an extremely important playoff game.

That's something LeStat fanboys never understood. He could have scored 25 points and I would have said the same thing if he managed to control the game like he did tonight.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

What's the problem?

seriously blaming the refs?

 

[Mxrz]

I miss Mark Jackson.

 

[cacophony]

they need to start a good effort, good job chant

 

[Sanjuro]

seriously blaming the refs?

How am I blaming the refs? Neither team were getting many calls in the paint.

 

[thekad]

Pretty much. KG can't defend 20 foot fadeaway asshole shots.

 

[Emwitus]

good teams win regular season games, superstars win championships. Sucks spurs. Well, will finally have a GOAT VS GOAT LEVEL CLASH in the finals. I really felt like the celtics could have closed this out but Lebron was not gonna just roll over. Good effort lebron.
