My pick all along has been Spurs in 7. Do I think they will lose by 7 points or more to the Heat tonight in Miami? Not so sure about that, but Vegas has set 7 as the line.

Leave a commentDanny Green has made 25 3-pointers in the NBA Finals, breaking Ray Allen’s record.

Podcast: What to make of LeBron James’ Guarantee?
Leave a commentSAN ANTONIO — Once again Wednesday, LeBron James heaping all the blame and the pressure on himself. His mood was better, his defiance was not manufactured, and he made a lot of good points while making a guarantee that he would play better.

1 CommentThe San Antonio Spurs are crowding the paint and daring LeBron James to take jumpers. So why doesn’t he?
Through the first three games of the NBA Finals, James has yet to score 20 points. It’s his longest such postseason streak since the 2011 Finals vs. Dallas, and we all know what happened there.
If James doesn’t want that to happen again, he has to stop worrying about efficiency and start worrying about the Miami Heat falling into a 3-1 hole. He has to stop wasting possessions trying to get his teammates involved and take over, the way the best player in the world should.
