The level of difficulty on some of these LEBRON fade-aways/step back J's, especially off the "wrong foot", is really nuts.

A step back J off of his right foot, man that is not easy. That's a near impossible shot for most people (step back J on the "off foot").

destruction by Livingston. eek.

Best play of the game. I watched that at least 5 times.

But yeah, Houston are cooked.

yup. done.

imho, they look awful.

CLE looks awful too (for the most part), but .. LEBRON. CLE also doesn't have to face a juggernaut before the finals, ie GSW. HOU doesn't look anywhere near the level of GSW. I mean props to them for getting to the Western Conference Finals but they don't look like an NBA Finals team.

Yeah I just don't know how the finals is going to play out. Whoever GSW face is going to get blown off the court which isn't a good thing. I can only hope that Lebron ends up at Philly next year and they keep most of that unit together. That's the only option I see to challenge GSW. (I unintentionally just ignored BOS with who will be coming back for them too so there's always that).

a fully healthy BOS will be lethal, especially now that these young guys know how to step up.

Hope LEBRON goes back to MIA - come back bro!! Come back for 2 seasons, get to 2 NBA FINALS, then go back to CLE once again and finish with one more finals.

tbh tho.. I could see him coming back to MIA.. not even joking. That'd be a serious squad man.. and we know he loves South Beach

Haha. Wishful thinking. MIA with Bron isn't beating GSW though which I imagine is his number 1 goal.

Incredible baseline spin move by Horford, who was DOUBLED.

beautiful.

LEBRON came back off the bench. CLE.

they really need to fix this review process.. clearly off Love. Have to be able to get that call right with a little over 2 minutes left.

come on.

Good showing by BOS. Had they not missed so many layups/dunks etc, would have been very close. That's going to give them more confidence heading back home.

Good point. Game 5 going to be very interesting.

I hope James learns one thing from the last two games and that's to be a scorer and facilitator and not chase the rebounds. He can conserve so much energy that way.

yup

though, i think game 2 might have been different had LEBRON not taken that hit. IMHO, that was a nasty hit. It seemed to really shake him & changed the rhythm of the team. He already had like 25 points in the 1st quarter or something lmao. 30+ by the 2nd? Then boom. He was "off" after that hit.

I already foresee LEBRON walking off the court in game 6, intense AF, no talking, BOS fans silent, just confident after the steal.

Not overly excited about the officiating. I feel like there were a ton of just bad calls that killed momentum swings. On both sides but particularly Boston's. Specifically on Tatum. A few I just shook my head on. Still, like mentioned, if Boston hits the gimmes...

yup, tons of sh*t calls.
