NBA 2012-2013

Dwayne Wade sucks. Gets the rebound with just under 5 seconds, has several guys running ahead of him and he could easily advance for a better shot, but instead dribbles the whole way himself and fires up a terrible 3.

Seriously what happened to this guy? He aged ten years in one.

Guess I forgot about this:

“This was just the first time you’ve seen it, other times I’ve been able to not show you,” Wade said after the game before revealing a rather gnarly detail about the bandage that certainly helps explain his troubles in the postseason.

“I’m taping it. When you have a [bone] bruise, you try to move the kneecap over so it won’t rub. When you get into game sweat you have to re-tape it a bit.”

Moving the kneecap over, even if that’s just athlete/trainer jargon, is not a reassuring revelation.

But damn he could at least stop making such boneheaded decisions.

More pushing and talking, starring Mario Chalmers. Who knew that Battieritis was contagious?

On the other hand, at least this is an entertaining series.

Lebron is in Beast Mode since halftime.

[Art Vandelay]

Hilarious. They edited LBJ before he dropped the F-bomb. And umm, yeah he is really good.



Even funnier, TBS went blurcle after the game.

[BGRTHNUMEGO]

30-10 run for Miami in the 2nd half and LeBron scored or assisted on 25 of those points. And was the best defensive players.

[SandYFan]

Huh, Birdman suspended for Game 6.

Wade and Bosh combine for 4 points at the half and the Heat still lead.

So what's LeBron's game 7 numbers in his career?

[HuskyFreeNorthwest]

Um LBJ just came off the bench onto the court with about 6 seconds left in the game. Didn't Stern screw the Suns because of Staudamire put a toe on the court a few years ago?

They needed a bit more. I think Miami pulls out game 7 at home. The Pacers deserve a ton of credit though. I think their game plan for beating the Heat is pretty sound. Defend everyone and let Bron go. Shut down Bosh. Shut down Wade. Close out on Chalmers and the other three point shooters. Let Bron do his thing and use his unselfishness against him. Stephen A. Smith the other day said the problem with Bron is he isn't Kobe. He was getting blasted for this comment but I agree with him because what he meant is Bron just doesn't have the eff you I'm scoring every possession gene. Nobody can stop him. He could have 50 points a game if he wanted to. And there are times when he needs to do that. He is averaging about 20 shots a game this series. He should be taking 30.

I think the Spurs are going to win it.

I'm not sure I can remember a playoff series with so many "questionable" calls going against a superstar than this series with LeBron. Especially not so many calls in the 4th quarter. And even more so going up against a team without any "stars". A few of the calls tonight in the 4th really just struck me as odd given past games in the series and how they were officiated. This is normally when the NBA officials default to benefit of the doubt calls to superstars non-stop in a close playoff series.

[BGRTHNUMEGO]

And Roy Hibbert just dropped "MF-ers" and "No homo" in his presser.

[BGRTHNUMEGO]

So what's LeBron's game 7 numbers in his career?

34.3 ppg, the highest Game 7 scoring average with players that have at least two Game 7's played. I think LeBron's record is 1-2 in those games.

[MarkGrace]

Bosh and Wade suck, hurt or not. And the problem is they're just never going to get healthy again until this thing is over. I just don't see any way Miami wins it even if they get past Indy.
