    Did LeBron James just shave that for the ML fix

    He didn't just play horribly on offense, he was giving up on 'D' - right from the start.

    Did Maverick Carter owe Vegas?

    Lebron acts like a little bitch on court when the are losing down the stretch. He just plays iso ball, running the shot clock, and running into defenders looking for fouls.

    Yeah why wouldn't he take a shot at shaving points?


    i mean it's not like he has a big NBA contract or lots of big endorsement contracts to jeopardize by being banned from NBA for life

    He looked like he was playing a preseason game. Playing at 50%; he was so slow and no almost no desire in his play. I was confused watching him play

    this is why people are bad at handicapping, they assume that athletes perform 100% in every game, they take no consideration of fatigue and/or other factors that affect performance


    athletes are not machines, they have good days and bad days, and sometimes your opponent outplays you so much that you look like you are having a bad day

    Jimmy Butler is in his head. He's the toughest on Lebron in the league.

    its all part of the script.

    if he gave 100% effort every night the Cavs would never lose a game.

    but this nicca gets tired... he smokes a ton of weed and his lungs aint like they used to be.

    and besides that if the NBA didnt infuse a lil drama then nobody would tune in and the sportsbooks would
    go broke

    Butler is superb on D

    his shoulder injury gives him fresh legs for this time of year

    dont under estimate him

    Lebron didn't drive to the hole and get a ton of FTs for a reason

    Here we go again.

    Whenever LeBron loses it's because he isn't trying or because his teammates suck or whatever.

    I was informed by a league source who wishes to remain anonymous that Cavs owners want to host a Game 7 in this round for financial reasons.

    I've always thought that their is just too much money involved in having some series (this is one) going 7 games for the league to make sure that they don't go 7.

    a conversation from 1990 something or 2000 something -
    David Stern: "Tim, you know it sure would be nice if the league and our partners could make a few extra 100's of millions from gates and advertising if this series goes 7"
    Tim Donaghy: "No problem commish, just make sure that you take good care of me when I get out of jail"
