Cleveland free throws: 11-21
Houston: 26(!!)-33(!!)

Free throws were the biggest difference in this game tonight.

 

[Kyrieville]

One of the worst-reffed games ever. Harden should have been ejected for his nut kick. LeBron was choking at the FT line like it was 2009.

Yep, that's all James Harden and LeBron not making his... @Plaxicofan7 pretty much nailed it, 33 pts on 8 made shots?

Lol.... c'mon..

People have been going crazy with the downvotes lately. It's usually people that have joined within the last year, the ones that actually deserve the downvotes.

Let's get one thing straight this game had a playoff atmosphere with serious one sided ref calling. I'd like to point out on that blocking call on Beverly where Lebron got into it with him, why didn't Lebron go to the free throw line for a shooting foul? Instead Cavs side out. This game was a complete mentally draining game. I really don't know how I will make it through the playoffs.

The no Timo fourths are strange. He actually has some post game and can run the pick and roll. Make Houston defend a guy with that size and try to finish over him at the other end.

Yep..Moz not playin at the end of games is not the right decision TT plays tough but he isn't a threat on offense or a rim protector...we could have killed Hou inside today and didn't...that goes on LBJ and the coaches...but its on to the next one...we will have forgotten about this after a blowout of Bos and statement W's in Tor and ATL

This is a shitty way to look at the game. LeBron didn't lose the game; fuck, if it hadn't been for LeBron we'd have gotten blown out.

He's not knocking down his free throws.. They made the game very physical, that's how you beat LeBron - physicality. We don't have any interior presence, we don't have an enforcer, we don't have any way to get easy buckets.

So.. LeBron has to take over these games. He did alright, he just came up short.

A thousand times this. It's not selfish for him to bust his ass to try to win the game himself when nothing else was working But Lebron putting the whole team on his shoulders like a locomotive and trying to pull them through to a win is not sustainable. Our coaching staff and other scorers have got to get it to the point where Lebron knows that he can hand the ball back to others on the team when he starts getting gassed and needs to share the burden. And Lebron has got to know it's a problem too.

Wow a 70 page game thread! That's pretty impressive. Anyone got records on the longest one we've ever had (I've only been lurking since 2011, so I don't know how many pages game threads used to reach).

This is probably the longest post-2010 playoffs.

People need to calm the f*ck down here.

We lost IN HOUSTON to a great team, by the tightest of margins. Without Kyrie. With LeBron shooting 3-11 from the line, and missing clutch plays.

Yeah it blows to lose a game like this, but it says a hell of a lot of good things about where this team is going. We fought back from double digits and played a great game.

LeBron blew it, big deal, he's human. Get it out the system before the playoffs I say.

Says people need to calm down, uses (filtered) profanity in the same sentence.

He's a troll account, look at what he's done. He's probably a disgruntled Harden fan that realizes how useless Harden is without getting every call.
