Miller Miami wins game two and they take a two games to un lead in the first round of this Eastern Conference playoffs let’s take now a look at our starting lineups tonight here at the Garden in game three and in essence we’ve got three players for the New York
Knicks starting in different positions tonight well no Amari stari which means Carmelo Anthony moves down to that power forward position where they were 14 and five in his absence with the back injury but it doesn’t change for the Miami Heat that just means LeBron James is still
Going to match up and this is the Premier matchup in this series once again they got Anthony on James little pass here to hlam LeBron the assist we talked about the top New York Knicks their ability to make threes they average about eight a game 10 is going
To be the magic number for them tonight as we’re talking about thre there’s Chris Bosch from that short Corner three-pointer it’s Wade we had so many in close shots kicks out nicely to Landry Fields lost the ball nice defense a turnover the other way wait to LeBron
Boy the Comfort level that these two guys in particular show with each other’s game has just been such a marked difference from a season ago Dwayne Wade easy had a dunk right here but he understood LeBron James trailing look at the Finish there Beautiful by number six

Minute it’s fields for a long two rebound by chers and they got James playing the point basically bringing the ball up he’ll put up with three oh my goodness oh my goodness that’s it that is it the fuse has been lit Anthony defending James BR James has 25 and
He’ll go to the stripe and Anthony reaching in he’ll pick up his third personal foul for the New York knet Drive by Smith the rebound by LeBron he’ll come going the other way a 20% shooting fourth quarter for New York chers puts it in again another triple LeBron James James is put
In 30 points you know just too many injuries too many changes too many too many things to the Knicks whether it was the Amar situation out of game two as he’s walking into the locker room the injury to Lynn the injury at different times to ster and
Anthony you know the late arrival on the scene by Baron Davis I mean one thing after another as as Carmelo said and Leon puts it another he now has uh total 32 it wasn’t pretty but LeBron came up big in the fourth quarter LeBron had 17 in the forth Wade at a

Was struggling through the first three quarters as he knocks it off Davis first three quarters of game three he had eight turnovers he was in foul trouble and then all of a sudden game belonged to him and he quieted some taunts and cheers that he heard from the
Crowd it was his first playoff game here at Madison Square Gard but I find it funny when people say that fueled him well what happened didn’t fuel him the first three quarters I mean it’s just everybody writes the story after the story as he makes a jump shot the guy
Has had bad stretches before and come out and play great he doesn’t need any fuel coming up on 2 minutes G by here in the second still even James the drive so difficult to [Applause] defend James hearing the bloos now every time he touches chimers goes back door poor defense from J.R Smith

James to Rooney CF just under four and a half remaining in this first first quarter Granger for three Here Comes James beautiful return pass from Wade volleyball return by Dwayne Wade 60 run for Miami and it’s a onepoint game James again with the runner I think he’s been working on that
Mar we didn’t see a whole lot of that early in the season but as you mention Frank B has overall his 15th NBA season8 as an assistant coach started as a video coordinator it’s two-on one and Cole over the stop shot clocked to five Anthony setting the pick
James he had missed his previous four shots with nearly 5 minutes gone by beautiful pass from James hlin with the bucket coming up on 3 minutes to play third quarter ball is stopping once again everything in the Miami off slowing down James off for SP it counts and the [Applause]
Foul cers with the runner kept Alive by James this time LeBron James has come up big recent times in the fourth quarter but as you say he has that that look although we have seen despite the fact that he may be fatigued we have seen him
Able to turn things on they did it the other night in game one played the entire second half and just dominated at 16 points in the fourth and there’s two more to start this quarter James gets inside and James and Granger have words the official Ed Malloy gets between them
Meanwhile here’s the play Granger gets on the wrong side of LeBron he anticipated that LeBron was going to run to to the high post to catch the ball loses the position and then you see what happens it’s pretty much just two guys playing hard getting tangled up here but
He tried to block the shot here and James took offense to that elbow Granger thinking maybe they were just tangled up the old double technical and night we play on and he trying to go two in the series and he had looking to take it back home at one a piece James
Out a one bounce for Anthony who gets inside James on the f nice action from Miami that time really getting the ball swung Pacers have a one-point lead here’s West looking to add to it and he does beautiful play drawn up by Frank V I think Miami
Thought that Indiana was going to try to post up Hibert and West just flashed in there they want a beautiful pass right on target from James to Wade I think you go for three here if you’re Eric bolo you do have another timeout left to advance the ball but very little time
Overall got to shoot the three out of four three here’s tomers 24 second buzzer goes off game is over Mario Charmers tie it and Indiana Has Come Away with a victory here in Miami to tie the series at one we’ll see a different Miami starting lineup here

Knocked away great defense by Wade always among the top 10 in Steels LeBron a little floater he’s hit one of those in each of the games in the series to break the scoring seal for the heat David West wanted the foul got nothing here goes LeBron the freight

Haslam to get inside Lebron followed it up he never stopped moving after he took that shot cson floats LeBron so aggressive and so good on the glass he’s got six rebounds in the game 30 in the series and a find of tur out for the dun to neat story hu
George Hill who went to IUPUI Indiana University Purdue University played with jobi and Parker and Duncan Greg papovich really liked them he learned he said I’ve learned so much about preparation hard work and learning to be a professional from those three guys oh LeBron went right around two Defenders
To throw it down and tie the game James stops at 121 Pacer run Indiana had its largest lead of the game again at nine now back to seven Mike I’m glad you brought up Jeff waser one of my favorite players just loved his game sacrificed his body for his team Mario ch Almer

Emphatically to the Pacers today the most significant game of the NBA season as the playoffs continue the Miami Heat and the Indiana Pacers on a glorious Mayday in downtown Indianapolis it’s game four of the Eastern Conference semifinals and the Pacers trying to go up three games to one George met at the
Rim Joel Anthony who came in for T after the timeout what a block at The Rim by Anthony bam he needs something to ignite them James coming to the basket and there they go a block on one end and LeBron dunks on the of Wade dishes to
Joel Anthony in the Lan taken away six turnovers for the heat George Hill to the basket and Indiana’s missed several shots here that could have extended their margin Wade’s first shot LeBron the rebound for the heat Bader desperately needs to make one there you go and he finally does Shane
Bader who was one of nine shooting the three one of 12 from the field in this series fans didn’t like to call in hand throw candidly could have gone either way shers hits a three from the outside H he was the unspoken star for Miami in
Game three getting in the lane 25 points a playoff career best well he’s had a great season Mike not only in points but in defense is James Quick post to the score inside so there’s another inside field goal for the heat running the offense through James beautiful finger
Roll by LeBron across the lane yeah I like that post up take hbert away to the opposite side and then post LeBron on the weak side James on a step back so many have said LeBron needs to have a Cleveland type Lebron game score 40 carry the team right now he’s got eight
Of the Miami 17 running through LeBron F by George almost got the end one and hub people will criticize LeBron a lot he gets more attention than anybody the MVP is trying to carry his guys through their tough for well we can see that we
Can see it right early on is it the knee is it confidence well don’t know what it is but not the guy we’ve come used to James with a block as aminon went to the basket and LeBron freight train down the lane and coming to the free throw line
And his aggression continues to be the most positive thing for Miami so far way going to try to post Barbosa well you they’re trying to do that it’s the third time Mike third time in the row to get him open Hasam with the putot back and Udonis Hasam who’s really been St to
Take away by way leave for James at the basket and the heat tighten it up to a a three-point game you say look how Miami started this game you just think it was going to be a runaway ah Indiana did not take advantage of all the their transition opportunities they’re right
Back in business nice attack to the rim by James and they got Hibert out from in front of the rim LeBron able to Rattle it in as he stopped Danny grer with that quick behind the back dribble James has 17 of the Miami 38 he has seven of their
15 field goal floater over Hibert and LeBron done that at least one time in every game of this series yeah I’m surprised now mainly because I in that situation Hibert never even got the arm up Wayne cutting to the basket so he’s got a three and a dunk and a couple of
Field goals here for Dwayne in the last that was beautiful LeBron James yelled up bad a cleared out and then they ran a back door move with Wade running on the Baseline attack by James H waiting and one for LeBron and the chance with a three-point play and there’s the
Complete MVP package of speed and power George lost the handle Miami back the other way little Helter Skelter the last [Applause] minute James a floater two of those in this game well he’s been able to keep his dribble and he worked you one way off the pick and then back again and
Then he’ll move you and once he feels he has it that big First Step that gets him creates the space LeBron a beautiful pass to Wade banging a bucket and DNE has hit three field goals in the last about six minutes of AC James and Wade have all 11 Miami points in this
Third quarter Q it’s a fourpoint game well you like but Wade two points in the first 22 minutes 12 in the last seven and the to Hawk Jam by James it’s a two-point game and since Wade hit that step back three in the first half when he couldn’t get around Paul George he’s
A different guy West tough defense Bader James goes to get it here go the heat on 0 run and LeBron to the basket coming to the line to try to tie the game well today right from the opening gun no way is LeBron James going to be denied as
He’s Crossing half court with the ball Wade fell down as he got the pass fans wanted to travel it is Wade a three in the lead he right right now the high school and college rule is you fall down it’s a travel in the pro basketball it’s
Not a travel Wade pitch to has on the attack James what a pass for Wade and what a show they are putting on in this third quarter we’re talking about eye popping passes here that was incredible Barbosa a lot of contact inside rebound for Miami James attacking Barbosa bang and a
Bucket for LeBron 37 in a row now that’s that’s just sheer upper body strength and then acrobatic ability to take the contact and just watch how he keep toes the ball and then spins it off the glass the only ones to score this quarter 38 consecutive points scored by

Clinch and move on to the Conference Finals GE in just his second year has shown great Improvement he’s had his ups and downs in the playoffs like a lot of young players Wade throws a wild pass back out to James and gets inside Ranger up on James Jam James
Drives gets inside tough shot shot clock down to five James with the jump shot big part of that is what Frank B did really made this team a lot about hi James out to chamers good open look for Mario chamers Nails a three they were 0 for four from downtown before
That one ball deflected still alive Cole has it Cole ahead to W back for James and the flush James drives goes right at hbert goes past him and makes it look easy LeBron James now with 11 points meanwhile the lead is only two because Dwayne Wade was
Sensational in that first half what word top Sensational cuz that’s what he was 26 first half points 11 of 16 shooting here look at this step one step here the left how do you keep your balance terrific foot work finish and the foul and then the bang shot look
Where this ball hits high up off the board very few people go old school on the bank and then this shot fake step through and then Arc it up over the top of the shot blocking hiber but this is my favorite one the split of the pick and
Roll the two foot jump stop and the slide by Dwayne Wade a terrific first half performance it’s not the most points he scored in the half in a playoff game that’s 30 remember this a guy was an NBA Finals MVP one of the terrific playoff performers always raises his level it
Was so confusing early as James knocks down the jumper shot clock down to eight James little jab step knocks down the jumper LeBron James now with 15 James the drive goes right at H tough shot 17 for LeBron James Collison goes back door and lost the [Applause]
Ball Miller for three that’s good Mike Miller his fourth three-pointer of the game and this is the largest lead of the night James spinning chers at the buzzer Pucks in the three Mario chers from downtown and the lead goes to 10 James gets inside Banks it in what a
Difficult shot for LeBron James Bader gets it back B shot is good nice pass from LeBron James Bader’s first field goal seventh assist for James James goes right at Hibert layup won’t go and a foul on Hibert the crowd doesn’t like it but Hibbert’s not saying a word as he
Picks up his third and they took Hibert out to get better defense they missed a switch there they trapped it and LeBron James attacked David West Gorge joh LeBron on James now drives hard puts up the shot and gets it to go it’s back to 10 shot clock winding down James waiting
Puts it up puts it to the night and that’ll pretty much do it 103 to 91 Miami wins three in a row to take the series in six games they were tested they were challenged but they emerg Victorious once again and the Miami Heat going back to the Eastern
Conference Finals so many memorable moments in the Eastern Conference Finals over the years who will turn in the next great performance will it be LeBron James he has certainly had his share already in this postseason oh will it be Paul Pierce for someone from the Boston Celtics the Aging veteran but still
Dangerous and talented group it’s the third straight year Boston of Miami of men in the postseason last year second round is James to the basket well you mention the different defensive philosophies it just as good as Indiana is defensively that’s still Boston’s strength teams are shooting under 41% against him in the playoffs
Ray Allen’s first shot and air ball Brandon Bass keeps it alive but it goes to turo Wade gets behind the defense and a momentary defensive lapse from the Celtics it’s 4 nothing heat Tri plays less than five minutes weit sneaks in again back door and behind the defense
And gets another layup there’s Pearson Jam have had some classic du battling each other especially back in 2008 when James played with the Cleveland Cavaliers they had that great seven go bad pass from Rondo and James wor one of the easiest shots he’s had all season oh chers this
Time the one to throw it to James Jam getting big minutes with all the injuries they’ve had in their front Court during the course of the Year James tough catch BS it in that wasn’t a great pass from fer James made it look easy nine points couple of assists
Already for LeBron James shot clock at seven Pierce Has the strength to deal with LeBron James not many players can say that not many players can do that petus on James Peters is a good Defender James drives left handed puts it in ready shot from LeBron James what a
First quarter he’s had just over 5 minutes gone by here in the second Rondo left open and knocks it in that’s what was so cool for him in game seven when he had those nine straight points when Pierce fouled out in the fourth quarter they were jump shots Wade lost it
Thought he got hit gets it to [Applause] Miller but Mike that is his jump shot and I love what the Celtics are doing setting two picks for him so when you try to go under as James hits the jump hook as you go under versus Rondo you’re
Talking about wide open jump shots toer a two-pointer James Nails the jumper heat quickly up by four here’s typical shot Rondo triying to tip it Wade comes up with it fires a baseball pass to James what a pass and an easy layup well how does the best player in basketball get behind the defense that
Much I don’t know but great pass by Wade to James there may not be a quarterback controversy in Miami much longer Dwayne Wade may be the answer Jones inside the Wade Wade starting to find some room to operate tries again flips it inside to James for the easy two Freddy class from
Dwayne Wade that’s his sixth assist of the game Knock clock down to six good balls the a from LeBron James Pierce couldn’t get it Rondo fakes Rondo drives oh there’s the fake trip a block by James and a 24 second violation Pierce to the basket blocked by James
Pierce to he got fouled now James with his second block here in the third quarter James flips it up and in 13-point lead pis way off James tips it to himself way it looked like Wade hurt that right knee there it was the left one that he recently had drained James
Drives down to the basket puts it in gets a tough rebound at one end finishes at the other well the heat of glow this open under five to play James drives on Garnett pullup shot Banks it [Applause] in 31 points for LeBron James Jones James fou by Garnett his
Fifth Wade and James are just playing at an incredible level the past week Miami takes game one the Eastern Conference Finals welcome to Miami where the heat has certainly been on inside the American Airlines Arena it’s game two of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics as
Turot brought Garnett on the drive James throws it down Barnett long Outlet to Pierce Pierce settles himself and that one won’t go wave the rebound almost taken away by Rondo at least here in the first half Rondo is having one of those special games James inside quick release another
Nice pass from chers Mario chers has four assists Barett left open again not that time bass trying to fight for it Bader did a good job James kicks it out chamers for three it’s good Mario chers once again just reaching in I don’t know if he’s being smart there he
Really took a chance James picked up by Garnett back door to Wade oh he pucks it in what a play from Dwayne Wade on a pretty Pass James spots up for three that’s good the three-pointers really been critical for Miami they’re seven of 15 James will try another three same spot same [Applause] result Wade inside gets it to go meanwhile James how aggressive he plays defensively Jeff and rarely gets into foul trouble but give
Him do credit for being able to stay out of foul trouble Quick Pass to wait on the break and lays it in James is incredible with those kind of passes it’s a one-point game Pierce blocked by James ahead to Wade way puts it up and a [Applause] foul [Applause]
Inside James won’t go the follow is good eight-point lead Garnett the lob Rondo to Garnett it’s back to two and a quick bucket important for the Celtics way drives Pierce hit him and that’s going to be it for Pierce there are a couple of Celtics in the
Vicinity but Pierce has just fouled out remember again he fouled out and gained seven against Philadelphia Wade hits that one three-point game Rondo chased by Haslam picked up his dribble Garnett comes back nearly stolen by Wade dueling out to Ray Allen an open three it’s good tie game Ray Allen
Drills the three with 34 seconds remaining games to set the screen rolls down gets the pass layup won’t go rebound taken by James and the shot clocks turned off huge rebound and they can hold it for the final shot and I don’t like this matchup for Boston Rondo staring now looking behind
To see if the screen is coming James puts it up one go Garnett the rebound at the buzzer and we go to overtime in gain two Allen to Garnett short jump for Garnett bang shot won’t go Garnett slaps his hands upset with himself that was an easy one wave the
Drive to the basket and a foul Ray Allen trying to inch to help out throws it back out shot clock down to six W telling Haslam to get out of the way he’s double team finds Haslam Haslam looking for an opening can’t get it to go James tis it in with the left
Hand we’re tied again Rondo hesitation drives layup won’t go Hasam the rebound Rondo slow to get up he thought he got hit W to James to hasab throws it down Heat by two and Boston calls timeout Rondo steps up for three knocks it down Rondo able
To deliver it’s back to four tomers over to James obviously the heat just need to hit their free throws and this one’s over and they have exerted so much energy tonight Boston can they regenerate that enthusias and energy going into game three well their home crowd will
Certainly give them a boost but it can only do so much Rondo looking Maris Daniels back to Rondo he’s going to try another three that’s good Rajan Rondo 44 points and that makes it a three-point game with 2.2 remaining and Wade rattles that one in with 2.2 remaining and that one
Probably clinched it all the way this game is going Ray Allen catches fires and that’ll do it the heat survive in a thriller and take a two nothing lead in the Eastern Conference Finals welcome to Boston we at the TD Garden the crowd is certainly fired up for game three of the
Eastern Conference Finals after two victories in Miami the heat now on the road James on nice pass to Turf talk about ball movement that was beautiful to watch from the heat standpoint and James th thrs a bullet and the game is tied roundo to pierce pader comes out to
A pierce gets to the basket here’s James quickly down the other end and James BS it in with a foul and it’s obvious Miami in their head to start the game is even on makes push the ball as Charmers dribbles it around back out bad eight James fakes Charmers good
Open look Mario chers he is having a strong postseason he had 22 points in game two Jam James inside the ark that’s a two-pointer for LeBron James as Pierce little fake to get rid of Bader not that [Applause] Time James pulls up another two-pointer when he has his jump shot going he is absolutely Unstoppable Wade pass inside gets it to James good aggressive defense but James patiently Waits and gets the layup LeBron James off to a terrific start nine points already all the DeShawn Stevenson LeBron
James back and forth James drives in gets fouled and puts it in he is come out with a Vengeance and he has 11 points already in just 8 minutes Pierce and James have both come out Strong James tries another three that’s good LeBron James 14 points in 9 minutes he’s
Six of eight from the field and the heat go up by four with a heat shooting the lights out early Pierce trying to draw a foul he thought he got hit so did Dr rivers of course every Celtic fan in the world they that as well
James pull up jumper puts it in he is red hot what a start for James and the heat go up by six James posting up Pierce I mean that’s just impossible to stop Miller right corner three Garnett tips it but right away blocked by Pierce and Garnet the
Rebound here’s nice feet inside bass locked from behind by LeBron James Wade knocked Away by Allen and a jump ball boy we’ve seen some terrific individual defensive plays James out to Bader Bader drives inside nice pass from Bader and LeBron James with 20 first half points and early on Miami had the requisite
Energy to play very well offensively but they have just been struggling even that shot right there that is an incredibly difficult shot his crowd from about a half hour before tip been so fired up James draws the foul puts it in and one second time he’s done that same move
This time he got hit as well James drills it right now it’s a one-man show on the offensive end for Miami good recognition by the Celtics to get Ray Allen an easy opportunity in the low post against TR they’ve outscored them 18-1 here in this third period and James hit yet another
LeBron James now eight points in the period himself 28th for the game James takes the three drives the floater he just hit some tough shots here in the third he’s got 30 for the game James trying to answer gets it in the wave and Away flips it up and in
Miller off the dribble nice move from Miller with the left hand Rondo to the basket but they’ve got to help on the drive knowing that they have no shot blocking the help has to come from the perimeter again like we saw in that Pierce post up a lot of standing and
Watching when you should be helping can’t imagine this lineup was on the court very often during the season at all these five particular players nice pass chamers to James James individually has had a another superb game 32 points seven rebounds four assists well after
Game two one of the he said was I asked him about his performance he said it’s kind of irrelevant we lost the game and you know players might say that he really felt that he just wants to win thers nice pass from LeBron James but this lineup for Miami is getting easy
Baskets right now that’s the second straight layup and Mike to go back to you I always wondered if players really say that because it’s a politically correct thing to say or if they really mean it because for me you have to take great pride and being able to put
Together a game like he did in game two well I’m sure he’s proud of it and we’ll look back at it someday but he was legitimately disappointed as James drives in James now with 34 eight straight points the Eastern Conference Finals will have at least a game five as
The Miley heaths lead is cut to 2 to one Boston Celtics take game three here on their home floor welcome to Boston and a packed to arus TD Garden it’s game four of the Eastern Conference Finals chers the runner nice move Pierce try to throw it outside got
Deflected Mike pillars come on early from Miami Garnett getting his usual break James down the lane and you see see a difference with Garnett already out fast turnaround shot now ases Doc Rivers does he break from his normal minutes rotation is James down low quick layup that’s nine
Straight points by Miami Daniel’s always been a very good defensive [Applause] player with Dallas with oh Alli up to James perfect pass from chers and the lead cut to six bass is now 49 for 53 from the free throw line in the playoffs he’s always been a good
Free throw shooter now he’s actually third all time in playoff free throw percentage he hasn’t shot as many as some of the greats obviously but he’s clutch at the line in the postseason James Quick shot and he hurt hurt himself a little bit grabbing his left hip as he backtracks James to
Haslin Hasam back inside nice pass from yonis Haslam and James with 12 first quarter points meanwhile Rajan Rondo’s start James double team flips it up and in once again James himself right now keeping Miami in the game chers blocked by petus has them out to Bader James down the lane hit by bass
Shot good and one he took a hard shot and still able to knock it in and a chance for a three-point play Rondo to the basket layup won’t go Garnett fighting for it Haslam comes out of it here’s James nice crossover and the foul pretty play from James able to sneak past

Injury he’s really getting a much better feeli knocking down jumpers James to the basket 22 for LeBron James Wade Wade now with his third field goal of the third quarter Garnett double team excellent help defense throws it away here’s James ahead to Cole Cole goes up
James bangs it in tie game the Heat have come back from 18 down to tie it up and the last time they ran the Garnett Rondo pick and roll instead of trapping it they switched which they did again inside the Garnett deep in the post and gets it to Go great design of the way to get Garnett against the switch deep Rondo again threaded the needle 15 assists for Rondo proud on its feet here in Boston way to James open three puts it in ties the game with 372 seconds remaining and the wave James pick and
Roll the slip the miscommunication and the three and Miami set up for a two for one a big three-pointer for LeBron James Rondo looking for Garnett pet dangerous pass Rondo to the basket and a whistle away from the ball it’s on Garnett Kevin Garnett calls for a foul as Rondo
Went to the basket and the heat will have a chance to win it on the final possession oh the two of them going out of James pumps his fist onette can’t believe the call well again miscommunication no rotation no switch leaves the MVP wide open he hasn’t made many jump
Shots tonight Mike but he made the one to tie it Bader will inbound Celtics do not have a foul to give and they have Pierce on Bader because he has five fouls instead of being on James petus right up on James 5 Seconds to play James looks James drives kicks
It out deflected to hlin haslin puts it up with the buzzer overtime here in game four Ron the drive the layup short Haslam with the rebound 16 point Wards for Haslam to go along with 12 points and an offensive foul on LeBron James he’s fouled out first pierce now James with still
151 remaining in OT Michael petus Hooks in a play very similar to what happened with Garnett on the other play guys hooked in they just get off balance James as confused as Garnett was on his call Way comes off the screen again Boston no longer with a
Foul to give they were looking three for Chas Wade picked up by Daniels final seconds Wade looks up head fake puts up a three for the win no good suix win it and the Conference Final is tied at two games a piece the Eastern Conference Finals are back in Miami so far four
Games four home wins two games have gone to overtime who will gain the upper hand tonight as we get set for game five chers to James switches to the left hand and then tips it in with the right hand Pierce gets the pass kicks it out
Wide open Ray Allen and Allen who had four three-pointers in game four is really starting to get his legs back underneath him again and very good Baseline cut by Pierce Garnett gave it back to him and that helped create the three-point shot oh what a pass and Wade with the
Finish Rondo being worked on Eddie lert their head athletic trainer checking out that left sleeve he dislocated That Elbow it was game three in the conference semi-finals last year now he didn’t miss any games because of it and he finished that game he basically was playing with one
Arm but it certainly hurt his Effectiveness as James bouns it in feels the contact and still able to throw it in Allen back door trying to get it to stea and a turnover Charmers gets it ahead to James James nice hesitation one with power one with finesse and it’s a seven-point lead
Rondo still on the court with a two fouls Pierce blocked by James as he rejects Pierce into the first row both coaches have talked all series long about ball movement ball movement please these defenses can be so good hard enough against it without the ball movement or with it I should say James
Oh nice pretty play again on his attack to the basket Mike and that brings me back to where I think he should catch the ball late in games James this time backs in the jumper a nice array of buckets for LeBron James who already has 11 points
And six rebounds well Doc Rivers who on the newly named NBA competition committee that goes over things like that try and talk with them later see if you can get some of your ideas in he didn’t listen to me when I was an assistant coach he’s not going to listen
To me as a broadcaster I don’t think I would either you two back with the Knicks back in the 90s as James hits another six of eight from the field that one a three-pointer and he’s got 14 points and 14 minutes Wade posting out Rondo James against petus pulls up another
Banker he’s made some shots that he makes it look easy but they are difficult and he’s now seven of nine from the field Wade trying to find an opening inside there he gets James in for the layup won’t go rebound tipped by Pierce James has it and the follow the
More active he is with random Cuts against the Zone like that one the better serve they are going to be offensively Jame penetrates kicks it out James Jones wide open hits a three big bucket from Jones off the Ben Rondo 12 assist James on the Move that’s
What you talked about even against a Zone get him on the move and he’s Unstoppable like that way to James puts up the three bang Miami by two both teams now on the penalty both teams with multiple timeouts as the crowd gets on its feet coming up on a
Minute remaining here in game five Pierce for three it’s good Paul Pierce from way down downt and Boston leads by four James has it on the drive James Goes to the basket lays it in quick play with 9.4 remaining Allen trying to get free they lob it
Into Garnett knocked Away by hlin but a foul and Garnett will shoot two free throws with 8.8 remaining oh two clutch free throws Boston has hit their last nine from the line Miami uses their final timeout Jones gets it to chers back up to top to Wade down to 5 Seconds
Wade puts up a three won’t go rebound Garnett throws it ahead to Dueling and the Boston Celtics win game five and take a 3-2 lead a huge win on the road as Miami now one loss away from elimination a stunning result here at the American Airlines Arena welcome to
Boston and a sold out TD Garden it’s game six of the Eastern J Conference Finals between the Celtics and the Miami Heat Boston with a 3 to2 edge and a chance to move on way double teamed as he has seen all series long chers spots up and that’s a three ni Garnett guarded
By LeBron James Pierce that was short from James the rebound Heat’s only shooting 29% from downtown James blows past Pearson throws it down and the heat quickly with a four-point lead well good as Tack and semi transition but if you saw a bass there his responsibility is to cut James
Off on that penetration well Pierce all series long having to guard LeBron James James with the jump shot is good well James in an isolation good jab STP good balance and knocks it in Allen is on LeBron James wants to post him up on the mismatch shot clock down to
Three difficult shot from James gets it to go Pierce guarded by James trying to get it inside deflected Celtic sloppy they’ve got four turnovers James on the Run gets inside count it and one James with the ball full full head of steam takes the hit from Steam and with tremendous body control
And strength finishes the play James for three puts it in LeBron James from downtown he’s got 12 already and the Heat have scored 10 in a row well it’s LeBron James so far the attack and semi- transition the jab step jump shot and this is where he in Miami is at
Their best when he has the ball off a turnover in the middle of the floor attacking and finishing petus on James James spins trying to draw some contact boy what a great start for LeBron James six of seven from the field pick up the fight that’s what Paul
Pierce described this series a good oldfashioned bar fight as James hits it again and Mike they went to the zone and LeBron James did exactly what he should get in the middle of the Zone it’s more like a switchy man he was guarded by Rondo and he posted him up and shot
Right over the top of it Rondo up there hitting his first four shots misses his next two sure Doc Rivers doesn’t want him to hesitate then James meanwhile he is knocking down everything he’s 8 for nine from the field 18 points and we still have just under nine to play in
The second James tries again and puts it in again 9 for 10 from the field right now Unstoppable and some of these are tough tough shots gains again be right now is at a special Zone here in the first half as Pierce picks up his third Jeff and that’s a that’s a tough
Foul James without the headband draws another foul and you look at LeBron James when you’re making and taking these tough shots people are naturally going to start to lose some discipline and react on shot pick these are difficult shots so when James has Rondo posted and he
Turns and he looks like he’s going to shoot it you’re going to react more than you should chanting defense LeBron James hasn’t seen that yet petus good defense there though double team chers puts up a three and Nails it and that shows you that particular play
Shows you how strong LeBron James is a big double team and he still rifles a pass out of it Bosch down low against Ray Allen turns little jump hook won’t go James comes flying in and throws it down he’s got 27 first half points pus forgets to block out just watching the
Ball James takes advantage gets the running start and a 20 second timeout as James just throws it down look how high a above the r is Moro has the highest scoring game in these playoffs the 44 points in game two Jame styled by Garnett Celtics meanwhile nine turnovers
R those try to force make some extra special passes as James hits another a 30-point first half a dominant first half how do you measure the balance between riding your hot hand and making sure the other guys around you are finding their own Rhythm we just got to
Be aggressive all of us CL myself got to continue to aggressive in the second half 24 minutes how do you make sure you handle appropriately the pressure with your season on the line well there’s nothing to handle I mean uh for us is winner go home so you know I plan on
Playing the whole second half they were able to keep the pace where they wanted the attack and semi transition there the shot fake the little bump and fade and then the fade against Patric the offensive rebound and this one the step back going right is very difficult to balance up on
James he has been in complete control so far Falling Away gets that to go off the glass the largest lead of the night Miami by 17 Rondo try to poke it away and James floats it up and in 34 now for LeBron James he’s hit a wide array of shots jump shots threes
Dunks Rondo to pierce and he couldn’t hold on James down the other way kicks it out Cher’s right corner that’s a three and what a big turnaround it could have been a 10-point game instead it goes to 15 James jab steps on petus now the jump shot that’s
Been going in all night long he’s got 36 points 15 of 20 from the field James for three does it again 39 points and Miami back up by 13 what a performance so far for LeBron James Dwayne Wade is loving his partner in crime James blows past Pearson throws it
Down James again James James James James comes flying in he is knocking down everything in an elimination game he has been dazzling so far 39 points 16 of 21 h a couple of threes has nine rebounds and has stopped every Boston run James turnaround jumper drills it 41
Points and the lead back to 13 James and Rondo have played the entire way Rondo misses James his 11 rebound to go along with 41 points and we’ve just begun the fourth quarter Wade on the pullup kicks his legs and knocks it in he’s got 11 and
The lead back to 15 James again 43 points he is knocking down jump shot after jump shot mixing get in with some dunks some alley oops some spin moves some fall aways James drives inside the Wade another nice pass Wade with the finish and this has been one impressive dominant performance
James flips it up left handed BS it in he’s got 45 a 25o Le lead this a great cut and by James and a very good pass by Wade one of the great clutch playoff performances while facing elimination LeBron James right from the opening tip just took it to the Boston Celtics with
A masterpiece tonight here at the TD Garden 30 in the first half these are all second half the one foot step back and then the little floater as he posts up Rondo at the elbow and then the 17 foot catch that jab step jump shot game
And then his post game he was going to work down low more so than we’ve seen at any point in this series and there will be a game seven in the Eastern Conference Finals LeBron James put the heat on his shoulders and carried them to this dominant Victory LeBron no
Player has to play Under the kind of scrutiny and pressure that you do how do you stand and deliver the kind of performance you did tonight uh I just wanted to try to lead my team the best way I could U whatever I needed to do out on the floor I tried
To be there for him tonight and uh you know I’m glad we was able to to get this win and now uh you know Force the game seven what is it like knowing that regardless of what happens with the team the failure rests on your shoulders well you know I just go out
And just do what I’ve been taught and that’s to play at a high level and have fun with it and at the end of the day um I won’t regret anything if I know I played hard and I gave it on my all I won’t regret anything no matter the
Outcome and uh you know that’s where I’ve been this whole season you exercised some demons in this building but this is a proud Celtic team what will it take to beat them in the seventh game well I mean it’s a it’s a championship caliber team and uh we’re
Not going to celebrate about this win uh we had to win this game we wanted to win this game it’s a good win for us but the series um is a one game series now and it’s in our building so we look forward to the challenge welcome to Miami and
Game seven of the Eastern Conference fin it’s been a riveting series not always pretty sometimes contentious but perhaps fitting it goes down to a final game for the right to move on to the NBA finals LeBron James with a just absolute spectacular performance in game six how
Will the Celtics respond can they get another road win here in Miami when it’s been so difficult for the road Team all season and bass individually did a very good job in game six and it also keeps Paul Pierce out of foul trouble M and there
Is a cross match now which makes it more difficult for James to get back to him haslin the rebound off the Pierce Miss and Garnett the foul and I see you shaking your head you don’t particularly like that foul by garut even though it’s stopped and easy
Two LeBron James has been putting up suburb numbers all series all playoffs but in game six with the season on the line the game on the road and the possible ramifications if they lost it was an amazing performance Doc Rivers called it Sensational but he also said they could do a lot
Better he caught the ball wherever he wanted to um he had a lot of dunks those aren’t very tough shots um he made a lot of jump shots uh but they were you know there’s a difference between being the next to a guy and being into a guy and
So on those clips there was a lot of Clips where we were next to them him uh but we we have to guard him better and then if he’s still making shots then we have to do something about it nice pass inside and James with his first field
Goal he had about 36 points at this point gain six by Night Rondo on Wade he’s now at the point James gets inside blocked by stea but a foul on the way up as Ray Allen picks up the foul that’s his first big weight disadvantage for
Rajar Rondo bad pass stolen by Ray Allen is third steel Rondo side step blocked by James and he’s down after releasing the ball the Collision Rondo shaking up crashing into camera people and photographers along the Baseline there Rondo pushed it even though it was a one shot situation he got hit
After James had already blocked the shot that should be a foul but Rond landed came back to normal Floor position and then the momentum of James came into him James drives the floater [Applause] inside 10 points for LeBron James three-point game James on the drive and he’s fouled Ray Allen with
Bosch on him fires away short rebound petress goes over chers to get it stolen by James Here Comes James lobs away back to James what a play from Wade to James and the lead is cut to five this is a huge play great effort on the defensive rebound by petus or

Matches you’ve got to be able to rotate the best player and best score on your opponent as James knocks it in BOS well he was so good shooting the ball in game seven again this is just his fourth game back after missing nine in the playoffs chamers we’ve talked all
Playoffs long the Charmers the bigger the game the more he’s into it Harden now on LeBron James James drives past him and an easy layup there for LeBron James he’s got six this is a tough match up for Hardy James thou and going to St in the act of
Shooting turnover stolen by James and throws it down Durant already with one foul looked like he was ready to stop the play and made the smart move not to pick up his second absolutely he’s too valuable to take a foul in transition like that iaka open hesitated rebound
Bader they’re really committing to James Harden on the pick and roll to try to take away his split game as James in transition gets all the way to the rim Thunder picked up their defensive bit James though is open BS it in a two-pointer and LeBron James with 14 chers gets in the
Paint keeps his dribble nicely shot clock winding down and James rattles in a three his first three-pointer but the seventh from Miami there’s seven of 11 from downtown James trying to quiet The Crowd Oh throws it in with the left hand it’s a little shoulder bump from
Perkins as he goes past Westbrook a long three-pointer back of the rim and James good boxing out grabs his fifth board and he’s done a good job pressuring the ball when they run their offense through Perkins drives again and once again off the glass back to back aggressive moves from
LeBron James and he’s got 21 as Bader lines up a three and hits that one Shane Bater with his fourth three-pointer and the heat back up by five James puts his head down throws it down and a foul and I believe it’s going to be on Durant that’s his second and a chance
For a three-point play for LeBron James who now has 23 James and sephilia battling James drives fires it up Banks it in what a tough shot and the foul two Thunder players all around him and LeBron James with a chance for a three-point Play Wade splits back up LeBron James
Drives hard count it at one again a strong move from LeBron James and a chance for the three-point play James now seven the nine from the line he’s got 30 points the Oklahoma City Thunder take game one Eric spoler said we have to play our game offensively
That they played their game too easily as LeBron James gets inside and lays it in James Durant already has a foul James puts it up and in it’s 18-2 Harden just five points in game one other players play Big minutes picked up the slot James attacks and gets it to go seou did
Such a fine job on LeBron James in the the fourth quarter James though makes a little easy quick move and LeBron James now with eight points already well it started with the attack the pick and roll here Wade very good pocket bounce pass to James who goes by Kendrick Perkins for
The layup you see everything going to the basket the switch Wade loves the right to left cross over and then the post move the spin to the left shoulder the pump fake and the jump hook and then the face up against Sean the drive by the left hand reverse terrific
Performance to start this game Wade James seia throws it bad pass BOS with the steel James drives powers in and gets the layup to go pump fakes puts up a three and not a great shot that time from Durant the switch of Bosch on the pin down flattened him out as chmer knocks
In the transition three James little jab step shot clock down to seven backs up with Ibaka on him James drives past him head fake puts it up bangs it [Applause] in and again with a shot blocker like Ibaka you have to show him the shot which James did after coming to the jump
Stop James drives draws the foul on Ibaka nobody has three fouls in this game plenty with two James oh he made a couple of those in the fourth quarter the other night that left-handed shot they switch Perkins onto him off the pick and roll he attacks James gets
Inside block by Sephia James right back up and in and he’s got 18 points James spins left hand again this time won’t go but a foul and seia does not like the call but he picks up his first seia back on LeBron James kicks it up top bad left
Wide open now’s another second straight game Bader with four three-pointers he’s been huge tonight again tremendous spacing by Miami and a foul on Durant that’s going to be four on Kevin Durant chers fakes a three on the drive inside passed away won’t go James the rebound and James is
Fouled thean on the bench with four fouls James the drive gets it to go he’s got 26 shot clock at seven James looks up at the shot clock James on the drive inside pass and thrown down by Bosch crowd wanted a charge but that was a flop late in the
Shot clock Westbrook good individual defense probably a little bit of a flop and James finds Bosch as Collison rotates up James foul and Miami evens up the NBA Finals first home loss of the playoffs for the Thunder James the rebound goes back up looked like there was something there
Unless it was blocked either it was a discontinuation or a jump ball should have been James with the jump shot gets it a go in game two nine of his 10 field goals were inside the paint he got the shots he wanted nice feet inside and James gets a
Layup well Russell Westbrook is not immune to the criticism you gentlemen alluded to just prior to that break in fact he said I hear every single bit of it he said but I’m not going to make any adjustments regardless of what anybody says I take a great deal of confidence
From my teammate Kevin Durant he tells me constantly how much he appreciates what I do for this basketball team as LeBron again gets on the offensive glass and a putb LeBron James excellent play right here yeah the only one for the heat on the offens of glass James hop
Step and LeBron James James with a superb first quarter 10 points five rebounds beat by six Kevin Durant’s got to put his body in front of James and make them kick the ball out to the perimeter Durant with a shot blocked you don’t see that often James the drive scoop lay
Up LeBron James six of nine from thefield and getting it to the rim easily here in the first half way left open gets it to James and just checked back in misses gets his own rebound gets it back and foul he has been a demon down low and we’ll head to
The free throw line for the first time tonight Grant stolen by chers Bo he saw that coming nice Outlet to W Mario chers with the defensive play LeBron James with the outlet it’s their first field goal in about 4 and A2 minutes Bader gets it to go the hot shooting
Shade Bader does it again here comes James Pete looking to push James drives inside and a foul that’s going to be two on dur and chance for three-point play for LeBron James spectacular move by James but an absolute trotting Oklahoma City defense in transition leaves Durant
Out on an island LeBron a side from the threes by Shane much of your offense has come inside the pain how much of that is schemes versus energy we attack team we just want to attack for pressure on the defense we was able to do that you threw
Great energy at that team they’re still hanging around what does it take it’s the finals um we’re not trying to blow them out we’re just trying to win each quarter and put oursel in a position to win late Westbrook to spin pass inside tried to jam it in there that time a
Little out of control James to Wade and Wade puts it down Durant with the three fouls didn’t want to go near him James hop step lays it up nice soft touch and LeBron James with his first points of the third quarter chers and Wade play catch Wade kicks it out James for three
Puns it [Applause] in Thunder back up by one James powers in trying to draw a foul and he does as it’s Collison’s fourth he jumped over the half court line and never got in the back court Harden meanwhile loses the ball James the drive count it and one Durant his fifth
Foul and James puts Miami up by six under two and a half remaining Deep by five James puts his head down drives inside and puts it in off the glass but they played earlier in the shot clock attacked right across half court the little twisting layup by James
But it starts with the good screen playing with a little bit more offensive Pace no foul Scott Brooks’s yelling and a blocking foul on Harden as he tried to draw the charge big one right there from LeBron James Miami will take a two to1 lead in these NBA Finals with a hardfought 9185
Victory and you see right away what you were talking about in the open Kevin Durant on chers sosia on James and Westbrook on wave and Bosch on target for the first shot of the game they isolate James with sosia gets past him inside Perman greets him misses James
The rebound back up and in he’s done that a number of times Westbrook to the rim Bosch greeted him James releases down the other end and Bs it in very physical start perhaps the most physical to start as you would expect as the series moves on BOS cuts to the basket
And a nice bounce pass from James and Durant should give all the help right here that’s a three-pointer call the rookie steps up was wide open and the rookie had a great start to the season he’s played some good minutes in the playoffs sometimes seems overwhelmed but he’s not
Afraid sets up for another three and knocks it down Doris called two huge three-pointers and it’s back to 11 James drives on seia tries again gets inside left-handed well he makes that look easy and it’s so hard right from the start every possession is get James the
Ball get him in position to attack and go to it simple isolation basketball B knocked away Lee pass to Wade for the Finish Well I think both both teams are excellent in transition but over the course of the game Oklahoma City pass to play Fast James Jones from downtown and
A 17-point lead has been cut to four 13 straight points heading back to Cole’s three to end the first games Westbrook looking to help a little bit back out chers chamers an open look that’s good James Jones off the dribble back up top LeBron James down the lane layup is good
Once again gets to the rim and if you’re short Ibaka you have to close out short to James and make him shoot over the top Bosch gets it inside nice spin from Chris Bosch back to one well LeBron James when single covered in the post has proven to be overpowering so the
Double teams are starting to come but they have to be disciplined here first pass out Norris Co makes his second three and this is the the one that Westbrook overc committed which left chers open at the three-point line nice spacing by chers to get in James’s line
Of vision and then James is always trying to bait people off the dribble he sees Harden peing and he gets James Jones a knockdown three-point shot James goes right at Sephia BS in another powerful to the rim 10 points eight assists six [Applause] rebounds chomer sets puts it up that one
Go James rifle passed away oh what a pass from LeBron James his ninth assist and Miami has regained the lead BOS drives the lane kicks it out Bader chers the floater and chamers would really been struggling with a shot has three field goals here tonight James gets to the rib [Applause]
Chers as the trailer hits a three and Miami with their largest lead of the night timeout Oklahoma City coming up on the Midway point of the third another strong quarter for Miami chers tries again the high aring shot he knocks it down 13 for Charmers James Harden on an
Island turn around bad shot seven-point lead largest of the night for Miami now Durant back on James knocks down the jumper 20 points for LeBron James he has their last eight points and this equals their largest lead of the night Durant bad pass stolen by James Jame drives on
Dur rant falls down fiser picks it up James slow to it up it’s a five on three fiser to the basket oh what a block from Wade jams down the other end now now pulls up and Banks it in what a turnaround Oklahoma City had numbers as
James is now lipping up the floor and Wade with a marvelous block falling down slipping on that play again he gets up obviously not right comes down he’ll make a basket while he’s limping but you can see now how he’s laboring going up the floor calls to
Come out and a huge Ovation as he set to check back in he was still limping a bit as he went to the scores table James with five to shoot tries a three bang LeBron James from downtown how about James back on the floor he’s obviously still limping
And Nail’s the three-pointer and we saw a similar shot against Boston in The crucial game seven terrific extension and follow follow through and James still bothered by that injury comes back on the floor hits a huge three and gets some help going to the bench with his team leading
9996 meanwhile LeBron James does not come back out of the floor as he’s hurting once again W with Sephia on him Sephia fights over the screen Charmers on the drive gets inside and Bs it in what a performance tonight from Mario chers six-point gain 10.6 remaining

Times and one thing Miami did right there was they were trapping Westbrook on that initial pick on the ball Westbrook can’t finish Sephia couldn’t grab the rebound James and Wade the other way Sephia remains on LeBron James who gets inside count it and one and that’s two on
Seia he lost where James is as hard as that is to believe as he went back door tremendous play designed by Eric spoler Harden the runner well short James the rebound we’re Midway through the first James drives right Baka count it and a [Applause] foul hardtin and James battling off the

Third as BOS just finds him himself wide open Miller another three six three pointers from Mike Miller and then I think Mickey Harrison the owner as James hit Wade on a beautiful cut and finish I think Mickey harison doesn’t get enough credit for his patience in letting Pat
Riley do what he’s done so very well well they had a number of very difficult years as Durant fouls James in clutch situations games two three and four all tight James in game two hits that bank shot with about a minute left and then the driving twisting layup in game three game four

2020 LeBron Is My Favorite LeBron But 2012/2013 was something else๐ฅถ
1st to comment
He got beyond lucky that he didn't have to face Spurs in finals this year. Thunder just happened to match up well against Spurs, but they were totally inexperienced when they got to the finals. Spurs would've handled Heat in the finals.
He was robbed that season for DPOY
Can you do 1991 and 1992 Jordan full playoff highlights?
2011
Bron had the versatility on full display during this run , playing off ball /on ball on the low block top of the key left/right elbow there was just no where you could put him on the court where he wasnโt a threat to score or make a play ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ the greatest playoff asset you could have on your roster and itโs not even close
๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅInevitable Bron
๐ฅ๐ฅ24:24 Eu amo essa mรบsica,essa batida
๐ ฒ๐ ท๐ ด๐ ฒ๐ บย ๐ ฟ๐๐ พ๐ ต๐ ธ๐ ป Belรญssima 17:17 Sensualidade em cada movimento 10:11 Que coisa…….. 20:20 maravilhosa ver uma crianรงa 22:22 preocupado com a preservaรงรฃo da natureza! 19:19 Lindo de ver!….. 21:21 Parabรฉns Eve e Adam, Deus abenรงoe
Shouldโve gotten that DPOTY lowkey. Merry Xmas yโall ๐
The ๐version of LeBron to me. So many elite Playoff performances …. 40-18-9 to save the season in G4 vs. Indy, the 45-15-5 vs. Boston, 31 in G7, a 26-point triple-double to get his first ring vs. OKC. ๐ฌ This version just had a different vibe, felt like he refused to lose any kind of must-win game. Kinda unpopular, but it's right up there w/ '18 Bron, '13 Bron and '09 Bron imo.
He is destroying the league in 2012 season
2k24 miami lebron james 96 overal ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Grudge of Miami, butler overlar also funny
This was my favorite bron. He was still lean before the muscle -gain in the 2012-2013 season, so his moves were still quicker. Fresh off of a Dallas finals loss, so he went to the gym and sharpened his ENTIRE game.
No longer could you hurt him with the zone because because he could play in the mid-post and worked on his catch and shoot game. He also worked on his pull-up middies. Shit was resfreshing to watch from bron, who up to then, relied on high screen and rolls and kick out for 3s to dominate. There weren't any extra wrinkles to his game
