Lebron James has won a road game in 26 straight NBA series. Let that sink in. That is mind bending levels of dominance. Suck on that Mel Gibson!
Welcome to Game 3 of the 2017 NBA playoffs!
THURSDAY, APRIL 20
7:00 PM ET
FOX Sports Ohio / TNT
WTAM 1100 / 100.7 WMMS / 87.7 FM (ESP)
Introducing your 2016 NBA Champion Cleveland Cavaliers!!!!
The coaching matchup:
Tyronne Lue: Some people like him (lebron) some people hate him (jmoney) everyone loves to discuss his rotations
VS
Nate McMillan: Mr Sonic himself has yet to come up with a wrinkle to worry the cavs apart from 'PG shoot loads' and 'oh lance do something amazing'. Will he get Miles Turners confidence out the trash heap in time? Will he finally hack a TT?
Champs Starters.
PG: Kyrie Irving: 30ppg but only 26% from 3.
Whirling dervish with the ball in his hands. Revolving door with the ballhandler in front of him. Time to work that triple rust off for good.
SG: JR Smith: No noteworthy stats. The enigma is probable for the game, might get swapped out for shump. Either way no one will be able to predict how well they play form moment to moment.
SF: LeGoat: 29ppg 10apg 8rpg. Seriously he does in fact spoil us with his play, at the time i thought he was a right prick for saying that but it's true.
PF: Kevin Love: 22ppg 69%FG 50%3fg. If he weren't so pretty Lance would have hated his nightmares last night a lot more.
C: TTop: 6ppg 11.5rpg 0%FT 1.25 thumbs. The Kardashian Krusher is doing his best on a bum knee and gammy thumb.
Champs Bench:
Pacers Starters:
Jeff Teague: Herking and Jerking his way to 19ppg somehow
Monta Ellis: Been very quiet so far 6ppg. Might try to get going at home.
Paul George: 30 7 7 from the pacers franchise so far
Thaddeus Young: 12ppg so far. Has been left open a lot but unable to capitalise so far
Miles Turner: Great young player unless you ask Paul George
Bench
Rest wont really play unless foul trouble
My Thoughts: I expect Lebron to have 8 shot attempts in the first quarter, trying to set the tone and quieten the crowd. I'd love the Cavs to actually hold onto a lead but I think for that to happen they have to start behind and fight back. Look for copious amounts of pick and roll on offense especially using whoever Teague is guarding.Jeff Teague: Herking and Jerking his way to 19ppg somehow

hopefully Bacon Grease (thanks PIP) continues his stellar shooting whilst watching the game on fry island.
Personally, win or lose I'm really looking forward to reading 10 pages complaining about Ty Lues rotations and Lebron's minutes. That's the consistency that I love RCF for
