Wow! LAKERS up by 30!

Lakers have played well and the Heat have struggled and couldn't make FTs. Bam doesn't look like an all-star he sometimes has hands made of butter. The game is probably over but I think the Heat are going to at least make it mildly interesting. Caruso has rewarded the decision to start him with some winning play.

The Heat just ran out of gas. Herro hit a wall. Bam and Dragic are fighting injuries. They put up a fight but it's a lot to ask to beat Lebron/AD 4 times out of 7. Getting the young guys finals experience is huge moving forward.

Always worth getting smart players on your team. Love Rondo, he may be the only reason Im ok with the Lakers getting this one.

Yep, the Heat just ran out of steam. Sucks for this to be how their story ends, but what a ride it was.

Forgot about this one. Vikings shutting out the Seahawks

Lakers depth has been a concern, but Rondo and KCP really stepped up. Thankfully, AD looked fine. So happy for Lakers after Kobe's tragic death.

Well stars win. More stars please.

For whatever reason the Heat didn't have it in this game and the Lakers certainly had some thing to do with it.

In some ways AD kinda reminds me of Duncan. What I mean is sometimes he is sorta boring offensively. I'm not saying he isn't good (I'm comparing him to Duncan..) but he doesn't strike me as playing all that that dynamic on offense but he is clearly talented and effective. Defensively he good and he was next level in this game.

Remember when supposedly Rondo was a cancer and nobody wanted him? Good times. I bought into some of that but wasn't convinced it was the case.

Mark Jackson drives me nuts pretty often but tonight during the game he said something about LeBron that I actually Thought was something that may be hard to argue with. He said when he is done he will have had the greatest career of any player in basketball. I think even if you don't think LeBron is the GOAT you could say his longevity Of playing for over 20 years at a high level if it plays out that way could be Just the greatest ever of a total career. If LeBron plays into his early 40's like Kareem did and still be really quite good it's going to be really something. He could walk away right now and he would have had a hell of a career obviously but damn the guy is really good. It would not shock me at all to see him play another 5 years.

They had two stars and a bunch of good defensive role players is the way I see it. That first half was a defensive masterpiece. It's a part of the game that I still think is highly undervalued.
