Game 7 | Pacers (3-3) @ Cavs (5-1) | November 8, 2015 | 3:30pm EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Also, for all the talk about how broken LeBrons jump shot is, we've seen him nail a TON of 15-18 feet jump shots all game long.
I've been trying to say forever that there is nothing broke about it.
 
Needed LeBron to save the game, again. Not a good trend.
Last year until the trade they needed LeBron to play 44 minutes to eek out wins.

Today, no Ky/Shump/JR, we win, and LeBron plays 35 minutes. Has yet to play more than 36 minutes in a game this year, as we round in to shape from a useless preseason, guys getting healthy, and top guys still out. 6-1 looking good to me as it affects seeding for the playoffs. How we're actually playing, in November, has little bearing on April\May\June
 
Yeah, I think he played worse against Philly...

His first half was much much worse than Philly.

My whole point is to emphasize his bounce back in the second half. His first half was THE worst basketball he played all season, but in the second he rounded it up to a monster game on both ends.

Sorry if I phrased it wrong.
 
I'm hoping we can keep LeBron's minutes down this year, and give him some breaks ...
It was a good win though.

We did. He played 34 minutes, and is averaging the lowest MPG in his career. That is after last season he averaged the lowest MPG in his career.

Lebron played 35 minutes today . Thats less than his average last year which was the lowest in his career.
If you want to win games with your starting pg , starting sg, and 6th man out. Sometimes your stars are going to need play decent sized minutes.
 
I know @The Oi mentioned this a few games ago, but it's so damn hard to get truly invested in these early games. Even when the Cavs let the Pacers hang around, there was no nervousness or anxiousness. Just a zen-like sense of calm.

I think even LeBron is kind of just trying to grind through these early season games. He clearly has nothing left to prove in the regular season. He's been all business to this point. Do your job. Get the win. On to the next one.

It will be nice to see how this team performs once they get Shump and Kyrie back.
 
The guy is being paid a boatload- he shold play
 
Exactly.

I still want to see the Warriors lose Thompson and Green just before playing the Cavs in the Finals. I'm praying for it.
That would be awesome. Watch currys whiney ass cry each game
 
Exactly.

That series would be complete and utter annihilation :chuckle:
 
They wouldn't make it out of the West if they lost those guys.


































We also wouldn't make it out of the West if we lose Love and Irving again.
