I'm going to support Alex Jensen as head coach.

In a Finals preview I remember reading he was right around 45% on midrange jumpers this postseason and last year something like 38-39%. Article was suggesting that how well he converts on those midrange jumpers is a pretty decent sign of his knee. Doesn't have much of a base to shoot when the knee is bothering him a lot.

He was 50% from 10-16 ft during the regular season, 41% from 16-3pt line. But per basketball-reference shot charts, he's not anywhere near 45% from midrange in these playoffs.

I'll see if I can find the link later when I have access to ESPN.

Haberstroh just tweeted that LeBron's measurements as part of the 2012 Olympic team were 6'9.25" and 267 lbs.

MG, did you see this?

The 14 high schools that make up Seattle’s Metro League have more alumni playing in the NBA than NYC’s high schools, all 799 of them.

you're not so hard to convince!

When you make an argument that is as iron clad as the one you did, it's pretty easy!

I'm sure he'd be great for your Blazers, I hope they get him!

Wow that goaltend call on Bron was a joke.

No, but that's awesome.

So my recollection wasn't totally on point.

Wade has often said that his jump shot is the barometer for his health. When he has his legs underneath him, he can get better lift on his jumper and his shot mechanics stay sound. So far, so good. Wade has seen much better success with his jump shot, which could prove to be pivotal in this series. He's shooting 45 percent on his jumpers according to Basketball-Reference.com shooting data whereas that was just 39 percent last postseason.

I guess jumpers would includes 3pters as well.

Danny Green played like Danny Green for three quarters. Strange game. Odd to see the beast that is leBron look human.

Bummer to see Bron have to sit, but what an insane quarter from the Spurs.

[BGRTHNUMEGO]

Morey tweets that LBJ's net plus minus for the game was +48. Monster effect on the game. Too bad it ended prematurely. Hope that doesn't end up hurting the Heat into Game 2 as well.

14-16 and 6-6. I only know regular stats but I have to think that also translates well to all the magical stats you guys quote all the time.

Where's the pickle juice when you need it?
