Down 15 vs Pelicans, ended up winning

5 of their 16 wins, came after digging hole.Look bad entire game, than somehow win.I havent seen a luckier team.

Your not coming back if you dig hole vs Clippers.

[superduper]

Oh look all lottery teams except one which was a lottery team last year.

LeGOAT :eek:

It's not luck. They win because their 4th quarter defense is by far the stingiest.

[SomeBlackDude]

bad habit to get into. all and well against the depleted pelicans, but against the elite teams, going down double digits early might mean lights out.

Lebron averaging 9ppg and 43% from 3 in the 4th (including 1 OT).

Comeback king.

This is a documented phenomenon known as LeCoast

It's not luck. They turn it on when they need to. How is it lucky to come back down double digits? :lol

They're 16-2 with the best record in basketball.

OP out here acting like every win is a "flue" :lol Yeah bro. Pairing AD with Lebron was a bad idea. No way they'll be halfway decent.

It does take some luck, especially in this 3-point era. A team is hot on 3s to start the game and builds a lead, they start missing their wide open 3s in the 2nd half and the lead evaporates.

It's not like we've been down big against good teams, we should be blowing them out. I wouldn't be surprised if all the teams in OP missed the Playoffs.

We're a good defensive team though, so it's no surprise that we can get stops and come back against bad/mediocre opponents.

[superduper]

Honestly you gotta give a lot of credit to the refs. They really turn it on when they see Bran needs it most.

I've seen a few game threads where people say LeBron has had a bad game but then he turns it on so credit to him for that. A bit worrying tho cause I'm not sure how it will work against the top teams.

Wednesday night was as awesome as it gets in LA. Down to the last seconds, first Clippers, like an appetizer. Followed by the main course: Lebron James :D

[Phenith]

The question is why are they getting down by double digits to bad teams?

So you are saying they are never out of the game because they keep coming back? Damn they must be good. Look at all those wins, troll :eek: :eek:

People on here have told me that any buckets scored with the margin at greater than 15 is stat padding. Or does that only apply to one specific player in one specific finals series?

They did this shit again vs Miami, they were down 14 at one point.
