I doubt Lebron will go into "Beast Mode" and light it up for 40+ pts

[Tarik One]

Just cliched jargon if you ask me.

It'll be the same formula from game 4: he'll try to get his teammates involved early: Wade, Bosh, Lewis. If those guys are struggling and the game is tight, especially down the stretch, then he'll take over.

I doubt he'll come out with a vengeance firing away. He'll probably use that assumption to his advantage. Pacers are not very smart anyway.

[played0ut]

That's what MJ did too, actually. Tried to get his teammates involved first. Then he'd turn on the switch.

Lebron does it more often throughout the entire game.

I really like lebron. I'm rooting for spurs, still lol

[r15mohd]

believe this as well...he hasnt said much but Lebron doesn't even have to play spectacular for them to win if a couple others are involved. So long as Wade and another have good games, as well as a 20-25pt from Lebron...the Heat will win

the heroic spurts the Pacers put up are far and few...game 1 shooting lights out, and then game 5 in PG going HAM in the second half is pretty much unlikely. that's more of a guarantee than Lebron going off IMO.

I don't think we'll be seeing that today.

[xoracle55]

Tonite I want him to be more selfish and stop passing alot, take it straight to the hoops, dont hesitate to take those jumpers, we havent seen alot of them yet, it'll be interesting to see who's guarding him tonite though but of course Lebron will always make the plays he think is right. Let's go Heatles!

[JohnFreeman]

I feel a LeBron start like the one at Oklamahoma this season.

[BoutPractice]

You may be right, but every single time LeBron did unleash his full offensive powers in an elimination or back-against-the-wall game (and it's happened quite a few times) there was always that guy who said "he'll look to get his teammates involved, they only need Wade/Bosh/whoever to step up in order to win anyway" or "inb4 he scores 18 points". Going crazy in those games is almost to be expected of him at this point... And he just had a 7 point night too, which I'm pretty sure he's not too pleased about.

[tpols]

Early foul trouble for hibbert or PG by refs.. he will go off.

[Solefade]

first quarter usually dictates how lebron will play for the whole game

[Mass Debator]

Adam Silver will read this and change up the script. Lebron scores 64 to surpass Jordan's record. 39 FTA on 14/14 FG :eek:

[pauk]

Meh, Pacers aint winning 3 in a row... this series is over, he just has to get in there and hopefully NOT get flopped out of the game this time.

If IND win game 6, anything can happen in game 7

[stalkerforlife]

I see a blowout taking place, with Miami winning easily.

The Pacers just aren't strong enough mentally, IMO.

[KendrickPerkins]

You're just asking for a thread backfire, eh Tarik? You clown.

I'll personally bump this once the King drops 45/10/10 and laugh at your ugly face.

[Haymaker]

He'll probably have a "normal" game for him. 28/8/7 but they'll get the W.

[russwest0]

He'll score like 28-33 points while 2 of Bosh, Allen, and Wade play great (particularly down the stretch), and ESPN will still hype it up as some sort of GOAT performance.

[J Shuttlesworth]

I'm guessing at least 30 pts

[rhowen4]

somewhere between 30 and 34 points

5 assists, 8 rebounds

[atljonesbro]

I could see him dropping 50.

[StrongLurk]

26-8-6

[Adam Silver]

Refs will be on LeBron's side tonight. It is my personal guarantee.

[Taller than CP3]

If Lebron doesn't have a beast game, then it just shows he's weak and let Lance Stephenson get into his head. Lebron needs to have a brilliant game and show everyone he won't be punked like that.

Sounds like every Miami opponents plan

[TheReal Kendall]

I'll put money on it that he don't get called for no more than 2 fouls this game.

Without a doubt the most badass thing Lebron's ever done.

[Rubio2Gasol]

12+ Free throws
Hibbert with 4 fouls in first half
Stephenson with 3

Refs will give the Heat this like they usually do.

[Tarik One]

You named yourself after Kendrick Perkins, but I'M the one with the ugly face?:(

[diamenz]

lebron will attack the basket tonight and get the pacers in foul trouble early. pacers won't be allowed to play any d and it's pretty much in the bag already.
