New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

Heat have faith in themselves, and I've heard those 'visits' by Riley to his team's hotel rooms to give his views and opinions. To me, that is very valuable. He sits on top and sees the whole thing with a different perspective. He is a wizard in adjustments too from his showtime days. And of course, we have Butler doing what he needed to do. Score big and lead and up his team's morale, which is the intangible. It is not easy to beat a team with such a high morale. A good tactic was to have Butler drive in a fish for a foul and he went to the line 14 times tonight and scored 12 of them. Olynyk now appears to me as a good asset, at 6'11", he can bother shots of the Lakers' bigs, and 17 points is no small feat either against a tough Lakers team. And Herro and Robinson did better than the past 2 games.
Defensive coverage didn't look particularly different except for a bit less switching on Miami's part. Lakers just looked a little careless, maybe over confident. I don't expect to see that in the next game.
That was an unexpected outcome.
Didn't expect the short-handed Heat to rise up like that - Butler proves his mettle.

And did anyone see that snarl from Tyler Herro? Should make a good poster, so young, but so tough and so ready. That was better than Rondo's wicked look after a conversion. 
Rondo, Olynyk and Crowder all doing well. Danny must be willing to swap all his rookies and picks for them now.
Pistons deja vu.

That shows once again what a fine character LeBum really is
Isn't he just the Greatest (oat)?
Absolutely no respect for the Teams, the opponents and the sport itself
LeBum himself and his completely selfish goals is all that matters
Yes, yes, yes, and yes to All.That shows once again what a fine character LeBum really is

And while on a rant let me add this as well:
All that "For Kobe" singsang is nothing but plain hypocritical and embarrassing to the legacy of Kobe
Almost bordering picking over bones

While we're at it, my son told me the other day he read about some comments re this GOAT debate and one LeBron fan enumerated all the 'positives' he had done - community development, charity, physical attributes of his game and so many others. And one guy just replied - all that is washed off by 'arrogance'.
And now, I would like to add another word - unsportsman-like conduct. Sounds like a cause for a technical foul, but LeBron has been just that in his career. Whinning at at every calls made against him, slamming Curry down after the game was lost in the waning minutes of game 4 of the Finals for a 1-3 deficit, and in that same game, walking over a fallen Draymond Green to elicit a counter blow from Green, which got him ultimately suspended. As I mentioned, he behaves like he is above the league rules and hardly gets any reprimand or fine for his acts on the court and off the court. These things, as Christoph mentioned, shows disrespect for the game, and for (G)oat candidate at that. He can just walk off the game without being properly substituted, and worse, 2 other players, Rondo and Kuzma, followed him to the dugout, while the final horn has not sounded. Role model in reverse.

Here's the game in a nutshell.........
SLOPPY LAKERS FALTER IN GAME 3
The Lakers commit 20 turnovers, including eight by LeBron James, to fuel the Heat's Game 3 win.

well for me, in spite of the Lakers loss, we now have a series where Miami shows their grit and desire to win without their 2 stars
Hopefully the rest of the series willl be well played by both teams
To me it was not only the Lakers turnovers but also the fact that AD was taken out of the rhythm of the game with early foul trouble. AD was never a dominant figure in the game. In fact, in defense of the Lakers, they played absolutely terrible but yet were in it up until the last 3 minutes when they held a short lived lead
