Pacers can actually win this. And that'll probably be the most impressive victory by any team this season. Not only has Cleveland not lost a home game since LeBron's return from his hiatus, but only 1 game has even been competitive.

[BigTicket]

Kyrie has been awful so far, hope he snaps out of it and helps the Cavs to a win.

[RedBlackAttack]

If we have to play this team in the first round, it is going to be absolutely brutal... especially with PG likely back. They are giving the Cavs fits with their defensive prowess. Frankly, other than Atlanta, there may be no other team I'd least like to face in the East than this Indiana team right now... and they're gaining fast on ATL. I'd much rather play Toronto, Chicago or Washington, for instance.

Scary team.

His shot is just way off tonight and foul trouble has him playing afraid defensively. One of those nights. TBH, Indiana looks like the better team so far. They're really playing well.

[BigTicket]

I hate when Lebron follows a made three with another quick three point attempt.

[RedBlackAttack]

This is one of the reasons why LeBron is still the best player in the league by a fair margin, imo. Just unstoppable when he is driving this way, even against a defensive juggernaut as Indiana has been of late.

Great stuff from him. It would be nice to see Love hit a big shot down the stretch here.

[Indian guy]

It's a testament to their talent level that Cleveland's offense has pretty much been functioning at record-levels since LeBron returned. Because from an X and O's standpoint, they are dreadful. Pretty much nothing but LeBron and Kyrie taking turns going 1-on-1. What does Blatt even do in practice? There's no way they can win the championship this season with that offense. Atlanta would beat them. And multiple teams in the West would.

[Warfan]

I respect this years pacers much more than last years. They'll be a 'tough' 1st round matchup if they make the PO's, especially if PG can come back and play well.

Also bron doing work right now :applause:

Overreaction. Kyrie is having an off night and the Pacers are playing over their heads.

[inclinerator]

lee bran just took over

[Lebron23]

It looks like Lebron's ankle is fully healed.

[navy]

Why would Kyrie not let that fly?

[Indian guy]

Overreaction. Kyrie is having an off night and the Pacers are playing over their heads.

Yeah. Chicago(w/ Butler and Rose back) and Miami would easily be tougher outs than Indiana. Indiana's playing well above their heads offensively tonight. And Kyrie's had a dreadful night.

Especially since most (including myself) didn't give them a chance of making the playoffs w/o PG.

Props to Frank Vogel

[Warfan]

Hibbert with a huge rebound, shocking.

[truhooper]

Nice miss Lebron :oldlol:

Good hustle Shump :applause:

[MP.Trey]

That's why I love Shump. Chasing down that rebound. We got very lucky though to even get the ball after Bron lost the handle, much less get the bounce in our favor.

[Hey Yo]

What's up with Kyrie?

Blatt subs in Shump for him, up by 1 with 40 seconds left?

[G0ATbe]

Good ol' LeBald with the near game losing turnover. Clutch brick as well.:applause:

[navy]

Coach Lebron. :roll:

[Lebron23]

Nice win by the Cavaliers.

[Meticode]

Should that bump by LeBron at the end on Miles been a foul? I don't know how the rule works. Anyway, I like how LeBron was yelling in the huddle to put Mozgov in to guard the inbound. There's no reason you don't put in your player with the best length to guard the inbounds with 1 second left.

[JT123]

What has happened to Lebron's handle this season? It looks like he doesn't even know how to dribble sometimes. He did just enough though. :applause:

[Lebron23]

Lebron is going to be a future NBA Coach.

[pauk]

Nothing wrong at all, he lost it because of the contact as Miles was blocking path, handchecking & hipriding/bumping trying to get away with a foul.... and he did... ofcourse... this is Lebron... not Harden... he shot 1-2 fts this game... not 25...

Lebron hit 1 more FG in this game than Harden did in that 50 point game last night.... lol

Great game.... BUT

WTF is Blatt thinking not playing Mozgov when he's having a great game? Tristan Thompson was practically a non-factor against Hibbert, and it almost cost them the game when Hibbert got some clutch rebounds.

Blatt continues to not play Mozgov very much, if at all in the 4th quarter. I think many of us have been baffled by this for some time now.
