what the hell is cleveland doing on defense? they are literally just not guarding biyombo on pnr's. why put lebron on derozan just to trap? they must've missed that derozan isn't steph curry and has actually just missed a couple of jumpers. maybe let him shoot instead of giving biyombo wide open dunks. my analytics say the latter is higher percentage.
So what Toronto needs to do each game to win: Force Kyrie AND Kevin to have horrible games, like career-worst horrible. Contain JR Smith, keep him from having an efficient night. Have Biyombo pickup 25+ rebounds. Have BOTH Lowry and DeRozen, the trash brothers, not play like human garbage. Lol.
after all the flagrants that haven't been called but then later upgraded on lebron over the years and after game 1 or 2 non-flagrant calls, i think they have to call that one a flagrant.
and jvg is right. lebron stays up and he doesn't get a flagrant so he falls down because that's how you get the call.
****, Jerry Lin takes way harder hits to his head than Lebrawn just took there. Lebrawn's a pus$sy. JVG is right, that play was a joke.
It's one thing to flop in the normal course of play. But to flop that badly, that severely during a dead ball... he really better get fined. What a pathetic play. http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2016/5/21/11733842/lebron-james-flops-to-the-ground-after-getting-hit-by-teammate
It's LeBrons fake tough guy attitude huffing and puffing as he hurries to get up to confront the player who 'flagrant' fouled him. Just like against Brooklyn a couple of seasons ago where LeBron did the same tough guy act and the Euro-Brooklyn player was laughing in his face. LeBron is otherworldly talent. But He's one of my least respected players.
Way to go toronto! Byombo, Derozan, Lowry, Joseph and the rest of the raptors showed alot of heart as usual and today they also brought their A games! Great performance and effort, its a pleasure watching an overmatched team fight and compete like this.
