    Refs going to rectify their mistake...blew the whistle inadvertently, forgot that they weren't supposed to give Amen any calls.

    Don't double-team LeBron. It's a lot easier for him to beat you with the pass nowadays.

    They'll probably look at the tape and determine it was a charge and a flagrant 1 on Amen for attempting the layup.

    They are not good at putting the ball in the basket. Draw out the most amazing play in the history of this game. Someone still has to put the ball in the basket. They don’t.

    He wore out. Started the season hot and slowly went downhill. Just doesn't have it to keep it up a full season.

    A big part of is, yes, we have terrible shooters.

    Another significant part of it is that many of our shots come without any semblance of rhythm. So many half court possessions end up with some random ass shot under duress. I’m not at all surprised when they don’t go in.

    Silver thought he needed to help LA to extend the series but he might be realizing that he needs to help the rockets to extend the series
