Kevin Love Returns: 27 points 9 rebounds through 3 quarters.
Valanciunas has 10 points and 9 rebounds.
Thompson has played only 9 minutes.
I guess Lue and Kevin split the game ball down the middle today, if they don't blow a 15 point margin. Well the quarter ends and it's 11.
Obviously they do better if I'm not aware that they're playing. I'll go away and read a book.

Certainly we are watching a historic player. And top 5 can't even be disputed at this point. Oh, and how big was it that Kevin Love seems to be feeling it too?

And Lebron was sure to point that out in the postgame interview.

He builds his case for the GOAT!

The thing is apparently he still has a long way to go too.

Like all the greats, this guy's drive is off the charts.

Hey, can we remember when regular season games come and go that this 33 year old guy has it figured out how to excel when the stakes get high?

More on last night from Rotoworld:

Coach Ty Lue had a bold call after a timeout with eight seconds left, choosing to have the Cavs bring it out at the baseline 94-feet away to allow LeBron to get a head of steam and hit a nine-foot floater off the glass at the buzzer to earn this win.

This was LeBron's second buzzer-beating shot to earn a win this postseason to make him the only player in the last 15 seasons to have multiple game-winning shots at the buzzer in one postseason. It's also the fifth time he's hit a postseason buzzer-beater since 2009.

James hasn't missed a game yet in 2017-18, and he has an excellent chance to play more than 100 games combined in the regular season and postseason in his 15-year career -- he's hit exactly 100 twice. If he hasn't passed Michael Jordan for the GOAT status yet, it may not be much longer.

While we are at it, a shout out to the Boston Celtics.

Ok, how do you lose Gordon Hayward early, then lose a Kyrie Irving and STILL be heading to the conference finals???

This team is so freaking gritty. No one puts out more on defense and their scrappiness in the closing seconds won their game vs much more talented 76er team last night.

Brad Stevens is a genius and that team gets the most out of what they barely even have.

Until next round of course.....
