    Game 5 against defending champ. CP3 injured. Team won.

    It's all too familiar.

    So what happened to Lebron carrying his team on his deltoids?

    I thought I heard him say that he wasn't willing to believe that CP3 would do that. Paul wasn't grabbing the wrong shoulder, but Mathews didn't even hit him on the shoulder. Paul was just waiting for any collision to pull this act.

    This is some bullshit. Draymond got eliminated from being in the postseason and I still have to see his b**** ass.

    I just saw the injury of CP3
    There did not seem to be anything too rough about the play
    A basic Box out fight under the goal . ..
    Did not see Matthews touch the shoulder specific

    I don't blame him tbh. They have no shot against PHX without AD. No sense risking an injury...

    AD has a groin injury...that kind of thing don't heal in a few days. Think we've seen the last of this Lakers team.

    Players don't typically leave to the locker room before the game is over even when the outcome is set and they won't get back in the game.

    Most guys aren't Lebron though.

    I just wouldn't make anything of it. No reason to be out there, he's frustrated, him sitting on the bench accomplishes nothing.

    Nope. LeBron, champion for equality, is too good to sit on the bench with the rest of his frustrated teammates.

    Dear God CP3, that act was one of the most dishonest things I've seen. To pretend Matthews hurt you at all, let alone badly?

    I’ve only seen Bron have 2 worse playoff series than the one he’s having now: 2007 finals against the Spurs, and the 2011 finals against the Mavs

    he’s averaging just 22 ppg
