Cavs defense has been strong all series.  If anyone besides LeBron remembers how to shoot they could be an excellent team

So giving up 121 in game 6 is being 'strong'?  lol  Cavs have playing just enough defense to get the W in the games they have won.  I wouldn't call their defense strong.
1 game out of 7.

LeBron James' 26 1st-half PTS were the most in a Game 7 since Paul Pierce in 2008. Wow.

If you aren't watching -- turn it on!!!  Indy is down by 2 nearly halfway through the 3rd.

Correction -- up by 1!!!!!!

LBJ is gonna be tired and Indy is stoked!  Defense forcing bad shot after bad shot.  Indy may have this!

That's what happens when you let a team stick around.

This may be LeBron James' final game in a Cavaliers jersey.

May be getting his bags ready to fly to Philadelphia or Los Angeles this summer.

If Indy manages to take this, I think they will give Toronto a run.  PG should come back to Indy -- they'd be a threat in the East.   Victor is terrific; Sabonis keeps improving; Turner is young, big and good. 

LBJ taking over now.  It's LBJ v. Indy.  Might be a very interesting 4th quarter.
