Then LBJ immediately committed 3 turnovers, missed 4 free throws, hit the side of the backboard with a 3, and got beat a buncha times on defense. And that’s just off the top of my head. Stats look great until you dive in a bit deeper. We only played 8 dudes and you could see the fatigue with LeBron in the 4th. Can’t play him all those minutes AND have him at pg AND have him trying to closeout on 3pt shooters. Gotta pick ur poison at this stage. .
Tie game in the 4th…

Saying that all along.
Yup. That’s why I found the Cam/Vando lineup so puzzling. Need one, if not both, of DLo and Reaves starting. Give DLo the 1st quarter green light and let James save himself for the 4th.
Guess you can blame the idiots who paid some 40 year old dude like he was sill an MVP. If only Dr. Buss were still around . . .
