if you legit think lebron wasnt affected by that and are claiming he is making shit up then you have never been poked in the eye by a 6'9 250lb man before
It was a play on the ball. Green was turning his body without momentum to jump very high while James was running toward the hoop and able to elevate much higher with momentum.
if you dont see lebron got fingers or a hand into his eye then perhaps you need to go see an optometrist yourself

and to add to MD's statement. it was a hit to the head which is what they are trying to eliminate by calling as flagrants. by definition it was a flagarant
It was a pretty bang bang play. The ball was down low when Draymond jumped and where his hands went. Lebron definitely got hit in the eye but he also was rolling on the ground holding his knee and head.
Exactly. A giant man rolling around on the ground after a boo-boo.

Come on, man.

He can be overdramatic and getting poked in the eye can really hurt. Both things can be true.

Glad we settled this.

He had two gorgeous passes, one to Kuzma and one to Caruso. The Kuzma one looked like the pass almost forced Kuzma to make a layup that he didn't want.

Yeah those bounce passes to the backdoor cutters should really get the shine right now. Gorgeous.

rolling around? he landed on his back and rolled once to his right and then rolled to his side as he laid there. its not like he was flopping around like a fish. i get it you dont like the guy but over stating how he reacted isnt exactly a sexy look for you or others

I'm wearing a pair of 16s rn. His shoes are superior for comfort and actually playing in but J's are superior with a pair of jeans.

Imagine having your dream job or working for a company for 10 plus yrs... Blood, sweat and tears and somebody from another company approach you and say ...Hey... you look like your vintage self today LMAO. You don't know them at all and they think they know you becuz they watched you perform a lil bit from a far. The shit would throw you off right??? You had your ups and downs in the company right! You’re human! But WHAT if the numbers say you were more efficient that year... WHAT if you’re a totally different player! It's nothing VINTAGE about my game but my floaters. I don't dunk or jump high anymore. I’m not killing u with speed nor am I a one man fastbreak anymore. I don't even shoot my reverse layups lol. I'm a totally different player. I love chess so I would put it this way... I lost my Queen early in the game but I fought my fuckin way back to get one of my pawns down the board to get her back. If you know chess... that's a very hard process to achieve and if you really know how to play you know even the master games are won with few pieces on the board and it's about strategy, heart and skill. It's cool to say I still hoop a lil bit...plus I been fighting through shit my whole life. I'm smiling through it becuz I been through the hardest shit. That was growing up piss poor in Chi and nobody didn't understand my pain and dreams but me. Vintage or not... I’m extremely Blessed and Skilled.

Derrick Rose is based af. Too bad Clarkson will win the 6th man. I almost think they should just give it to Rose as a lifetime achievement type thing.
