Can't really have any complaint about the fourth quarter, played very well, especially on offense. With Van Vleet back, this is the team that can go to the Finals. Also, Siakim has exceeded all expectations, what a performance tonight.

Not the most impressive series performance, but I'll take it!

Such a different team with FVV. Love Casey giving the bench a long leash there in the 4th.

I think that I would actually rather see them play Lebron than the Pacers. Pacers will rough them up and they have to conquer the Cavs sometime anyway.

^^There's no excuse not to beat either team, but Cleveland is a one man team and Indiana isn't, so as good as LeBron is look at what it's taken to probably get to seven. Indiana might be a tougher matchup, but less of a mental block I suppose. Raps just need to do their thing and they should beat either.

I mentioned it earlier, but I do hope LeBron sees how much he'll have to kill himself to lose in the Finals, so maybe he will quit in game seven. This Cavs team is picking top three without him.

Remember when Paul George got traded, and everybody thought the Pacers didn't do very well in the trade? Well George is probably gone from OKC and Oladipo might be better than him anyway, nevermind Sabonis. It's crazy to think what the Thunder have wasted in the last 10 years, gotta be the most disappointing (good) franchise in sports.

Was hoping the Celtis would get the boot today. Oh well.

Big game tomorrow. Aside from Lebron the Pacers looking much more dangerous. I don't know who the Raptors have a better chance against.

What an absolute horse #### call against Stephenson. NBA doing their best to ensure the Cavs move on (and Olodipo sucking isn’t helping). Just a joke the officiating LeBron receives.

At least the Raps might get a fair shake from the officiating if they were to play the Pacers.

Yep, officiating in the NBA aids narratives no matter who the Raptors end up playing, but if they draw the Cavs, they'll win in 5 or 6 no matter what the actual match suggests or how the Raptors play.

They will want Lebron going as far as he possibly can in his last year with the Cavs. Then we'll be sitting in here saying things like "Well, yeah the officiating was bad but ultimately the Raps didn't take care of business" "If they put them away in the third they would have had it, so you can't blame the refs".

Rinse, repeat.

Unbelievable, Olopdipo gets a technical for nothing while LeBron has a conference with each official after every call. Indiana back in the game and the whistles come back out. This is nothing short of corrupt.

Refs might be the decider today, but Indiana should have won this series already. But they've fought back again today, so hopefully they find a way.

Indiana’s rebounding is nothing short of pathetic and missing their first 5 three pointers of th game didn’t help either.

This is so maddening. As soon as Indy goes on a run, the refs end it quickly.
