Big win tonight by Miami.

It would be devastating for the Lakers if they blew a 3-1 series lead. But I fear LeBron is going to put up some 50 point performance next game. These guys need to stop him at all costs. This is their must-win game now

Man, just saw the AD ankle injury. Looked fairly significant. At the very least he's not going to be near 100% next game.
Huge deal. Imagine if he missed the game?!?

Thing is, that was his left ankle that he sprained.

His right foot he's apparently dealing with a heel issue that looks to have been reaggravated in the first quarter. So he's working on two bad feet.

Imagine that...Miami could've been up 3-2 if they closed out Game 4 properly  :(

Yeah, he is majorly hobbled right now. Wonder if Pat Riley is going to have a quiet word to UD about a certain landing zone

And with Dragic back, whole new series.

I thought Dragic was done for the season? He back next game?!

He was listed as doubtful tonight.

LeBron was exhausted after the game. The problem is so was Butler. 
This series finally got interesting.

Meh. Good win for Miami, but I still can't see the Heat pulling off a comeback. I think Game 6 features a vintage LeBron performance—triple-double with 50 points—and the Lakers win.

Honestly I really don't think this Lakers team is a super team.  It's Lebron, AD, and a bunch of average-to-below roleplayers.  KCP is their third-best player right now.  Compare him to Chris Bosh when he was in Miami... or Kevin Love in his second go-around in Cleveland.  They have two of the six or seven best players in the world, but that roster falls off steeply after that. 

Still probably going to be enough for a title though.  It's a shame that injuries to Dragic and Adebayo have impacted this series, and it's a shame that the Clippers imploded.

The fact that we fought a completely healthy cHeat team and went down because Brad couldnt figure iut the zone..if Miami played us strict man to man then no way th Heat beat us.

Heat have found ways to win deapite having no Dragic who gave us fits...also we were a healthy GH away from a finals berth.

A game 6 with no or a hobbled AD will be Huuuuge for Miami...but i also have a stinking feeling KCP will pull a Ron Artest type G7 performance to will their team on but I wish im wrong.

LeBron isn’t that guy anymore. He’s only scored 40 points twice all season. He doesn’t usually lose games like he had tonight.

Lakers switched to black uniforms and AD wore special gold shoes today, because they thought they were winning the banner tonight
