4 point game. Good D and Indy can win it.

So if Indy needs a stop, why do they come out with Bogdonavic on LeBron?  Wouldn't Stephenson have been a better option?  Defense and offense substitutions.  Not a good call from McMillan.

The Cavs have the worst Offensive Efficiency of any team in the playoffs . And have held the Pacers to 96 points. And Mark Jackson key takeaway is the Cavs need to play better defensively to move on.

Meanwhile, Doris Burke is stuck on sideline duty.

Not unless LBJ explodes for 40+ points again, and he will.

Jeff Green, Hood, Clarkson, Nance Jr. didn't give the cavs much at all...
JR smith is garbage on both ends now.

Literally it is Lebron, Love and a miracle game from Thompson (15points)
I don't think that is going to get it done against toronto.

Typical Mark Jackson trash.  "Give George Hill credit.  He stayed ready."  Yeah, that's what NBA players are paid to do, Mark.

Can't believe this guy used to coach for the pre-dynasty Warriors.

if any team sweeps it will be the one that swept the other last year.  The Cavs are a terrible matchup for the Raptors because they have no one that can even pretend to guard James.
2023 Historical Draft - Brooklyn Nets - 9th pick

Bigs - Pau, Amar'e, Issel, McGinnis, Roundfield
Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson
Guards - Cheeks, Petrovic, Buse, Rip

Indy up 1-0 and then losing home-court advantage spelled doom for them.

But ofc, there were very controversial calls that could have went in Indy's way. NBA is rigged.

At least Oladipo played his heart out in an elimination game unlike Paul George!

This is not the same Cavs team of last year. They barely scraped by the Pacers. Toronto's going to sweep them. The Raptors have too much depth, and much , much better coaching. The Cavs have Lebron and that's about it.

GROWN. MAN...Analysis? ;) ::) ;D

Anywho, that last pick and roll into a give-and-go between Lebron and Korver is exactly what Indiana should have been doing for the entire series whenever Cleveland trapped Oladipo. Sigh.
