Bum Adebayo with all the uncalled moving screens plus Lowry making every possible shot was the expected story of the game anyways.

That turnover called on Jaylen was complete BS. Lebron would take two more steps without getting that TO call.

I hate when we get slaughtered by the referees at our home court. Let our boys play. Do not punish us just because we're THE better team, cos we are and we're gonna sweep these MFs.

Well, we're up 9 and should be as we are an 8.5 Vegas favorite. But I tell you I was concerned until the last 5 min or so as it as nip and tuck and they actually had a 4 pt lead. Difference at first was their shooting % was 10 pts better than ours but then they missed and we hit and it evened out. Butler, I think had 12 pts first qtr and only 3 in the 2nd for 15. Here's why we will win. Williams has been awesome pulling down off Rebs and putting the ball in...has 12 pts. There is no Embiid in the paint and Butler yes an obstacle but at 6 ft 7 so will not dominate for Rebs but again without Embiid we were 40 to 16 in the paint....the main difference!<script type="text/javascript" src="webkit-masked-url://hidden/"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="webkit-masked-url://hidden/"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="webkit-masked-url://hidden/"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="webkit-masked-url://hidden/"></script>

The transition defense has been horrible.

Their shooting % now 57% and we can't do a lot about it and little defense perimeter shots so we must definitely get the rebs on the misses.
