I don't.
Too bad.
Depressed, defeated Celtics fans heading for the exits early not doing it for you either?

I hate both teams since im a knicks fan but seeing the heat not go to the finals would be great
KJ and Hondo better step up on Saturday.
One more win should give Spoelstra some job security. Will be interesting to see how Boston responds.

Miami doesn't seem to have a great crowd for a home court advantage. That might be different in a game 7 but I think Boston has a good chance.

Can't believe that guy was so clueless. Its amazing how many politicians don't even make an effort to sound like they're fans of the local teams. Easy way to sound out of touch with the common folk. Failed candidate Martha Coakley also comes to mind.
45 pts, 15 rebs, 5 asts on 19/26. WOW.
Guy is the best player on the planet and played like he believed it tonight. I hate the Heat, but when James plays to his best he is something to see.

Miami fans suck, often showing up late for games, major front runners. I agree about Boston. Boston hasn't had a good record closing out series under Doc. Still a great coach and motivator so they'll come out swinging on saturday.

That's the problem with James, you never know which guy is going to show up. Sure showed up tonite.

He's showed up the whole series, he's averaging 30 and 10 for the series against a very good defensive team and at the same time holding Pierce to 36% from the field. What more can people ask for? He can drop 40+ every game. As great as Lebron played, it was the Heat defense that showed up and secured the victory.

LeBron's had great series in the past only to defer or play passively in crunch time. Its happened before. We'll see if it happens again.

Exactly; Wade has been garbage. He's probably injured. But if Lebron were playing like Wade is, people would be calling him a choke artist.

I'm also interested to see how this will play out. Miami's fans aren't the best but even with this win tonight game 7 is still a win or go home game for the Heat and that seems to be only time they play their best. Obviously Boston could not just put it away tonight but it will be interesting to see if the "win or go home" scenario brings out the best in them as well.

Wade has a ring and has been clutch throughout his career, the same can't be said for James.

Interesting you bring up guarding Pierce. I thought he did a very poor job with that assignment and I much preferred Miami's defensive assignments of tonight.

I hope it does. I still want OKC to win it all but I'd rather see the Celts than the Heat.
Wondering how many beers were bought for this man....
The ebb and flow of this series is amazing.
Lebron's performance was amazing last nite. He makes it look easy. What he does is hard.
He is growing up and learning winning championships is hard both physically and mentally.
If it finally happens I have to give some respect. I hated his move to miami and was happy to see them fail last season in the finals but he has to know running over the league and laughing the whole time does not win fans.
Not happy about the result but he is SLOWLY earning my respect.
I had not noticed, is he still doing the thing with the white powder before the games?

The point is that once again Lebron is being forced to play 1 on 5.

Pretty much. I hate when people excuse someones poor play by saying, "At least he has a ring!" What does that have to do with right now? Wade isn't playing on the level he has established for himself in the past. If Wade continues to play like this, there is no way the Heat will a 'Chip' this year regardless of the extraterrestrial numbers Lebron puts up. And lets take a wild guess at who will ultimately be blamed...?
