LeBron and Jimmy Buckets were running on fumes at the end.


More stage managed than WWE - the NBA Final viewing figures will hit an all time low even if they do fabricate a close contest.

The reality is people don't want to watch 150 minutes of tedium just for the last 10 minutes of stage managed action, it might be down to the BLM nonsense but more likely the drop in viewers is simply a reflection that in 2020 people have far better options than watching repetitive NBA.

The NFL will suffer the same fate, if you want stage managed sport there's plenty of short sharp action - three hours plus of add breaks and prime donas prancing about, forget it.

Would be the greatest Finals win in NBA history. By far.

A fifth seed winning would certainly be more exciting than the Lakers winning their millionth championship.

Today's game shows what a manufactured joke the 'comeback' was ... worse than WWE

You're saying the Lakers lost on purpose?

87-58 at the end of the third. Jeez.

Would take a historic collapse for the Heat to come back.

Congrats to the Lakers for the franchise's 17th championship.

Yes, I'm fairly sure Danny Green didn't miss that 3 on purpose.

I'm also quite certain they didn't let Butler get a 40 point triple double in game 3 intentionally.

Fair enough - I reckon they're at least a 30 point a game better side - just look at the last quarter today letting the lead drop by 16 points just because they could ... they could have won this series with 4 straight blow-outs if they'd wanted too, the lack of TV viewers would seem to indicate that fans mostly agree.

Clippers looooool

Respectable second half against the Mavs, but how do you only manage to put up 27 points in a half and find yourself down by 50 in the first half in the NBA? I don't even care that Kawhi didn't play. Delete the franchise now.
