Top Lebron defenders

1. Jimmy Butler

2. Kawhi Leonard

3. Paul George

[MBogdos]

Man, LeBron just bullies everyone on his way to the rim...

[vishaalnarayan]

lance got ejected for saying what, after the miami team gathered around the refs to complain. pathetic.

[Praestantia]

It was a great game and I'm glad the Pacers won because the Heat won last time anyway. But this game, I saw SO MANY bad ref calls. It was horrible. I think Commissioner Silva's first move should be about the ref calls. 

[mmxv]

People can cry about Wade's 3 and West's travel but what about the miss when a Heat player touched the net while the ball was on the rim, it was in the 4th quarter too.

[rps]

Ok I'm not a fan of either team just to be clear but:
1. LeBron's elbow wasn't a flagrant, it was unintentional 
2. Wade's 3 pointer should've counted because he wasn't out of bounds
3. David West traveled on that clutch 3 pointer

[GenericOverload]

What's up with the bad refs at these huge games? Wade was inbound on that 3 pointer and West traveled for that clutch 3 pointer.

There were also so many bad/ghost calls on both sides *along* with all the fouls that weren't called. I'm not saying that all fouls are usually called, the refs are obviously going to miss some, but to have *that* many bad calls for both sides is just ridiculous.

[guanaco]

PG has a killer first step, especially for a 3.

[Fritodelay]

Heat should have won
Wades 3 was inside and should have counted
David West's 3 was following a travel too.

lebron won the battle but paul george won the war

[rhcpguitarar]

LeBron's amazing, but honestly the guy isn't THAT talented. Not the best dribbler, limited move sets, shootings better this year but still not anywhere near great. He's just so athletic and so big and strong he can bully anyone, even centers. Not saying he wont go down as one of the best, but basketball talent wise there is a list of players  I can name better.

This is how you know Heat "fans" are straight up bandwagoners.  They cant take criticism!!  People have been talking shit in sports for fuckin decades, probably centuries.  
Its hilarious these bandwagon sports noobs cant handle a lil trash talking.  Would love to play them in basketball,  you could get inside their small minds so easily.

[KJThaDonPSN]

Refs took away wade "out of bounds" 3 pointer. Game over. Indiana wins with help from refs.

[JamesJDMoe]

I'm a Heat fan and i can straight up tell you, I don't care about this lost or the other losses this year. Sure they would be great to have but its not a big deal. The Heat have nothing to prove. They are BACK to BACK CHAMPS. its the young bloods KD and Paul George that have something to prove...they need to prove they can win. And they have excellent teams unlike Lebron did early in his career so its best they try and dethrone the Heat now. But anyway, Go HEAT!

[themanimal]

This will be the toughest year yet for the Heat to win it all. I don't think they win this year. Lebron James will leave Miami and all the Heat "fans" will follow him. 

[AjmalIce]

Neutral Perspective Great Game To Watch!

[LeagueBat]

There were bullshit foul calls on both teams.. having said this, and having watched the game myself, I think the HEAT got the most meaningful bullshit calls. To begin with, Dwyane Wade was in bounds when taking his 3 and David West traveled on his "step back" 3, that's a 6 point swing right there, Miami lost by 1. Also, LeBron James was called for a FLAGRANT FOUL when his elbow INADVERTENTLY hit Roy Hibbert in the chin?!?!?!?! ARE YOU KIDDINg ME????

[smurfballs]

LEBRON WON THE DUEL BUT LOST THE BATTLE. 

[jcanimus]

Lebron will definitely go down as one of the best, his moveset is still pretty limited compared to Durant and George, but whatever, if it works.

[eingelvf]

PG is the man! Time for a new champion and a new mvp!!
