Game 611: (5) Indiana Pacers at (4) Cleveland Cavaliers

Eastern Conference first round
Game 7
April 29 at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, OH
ABC

I really don't think it's fair that one NBA team gets to play with four human basketball players and one guy who is his own basketball species, while every other team has to settle for five human basketball players.

Cleveland got another incredible effort from LeBron James as his 45 points led the Cavaliers to a 105-101 victory and 4-3 series win.

James, who is second only to Michael Jordan for career playoff 40-point games (and during this game became the sport's all-time leader in playoff steals), is basically carrying a team through the postseason AGAIN. James was 16-of-25 from the field (his teammates also hit 16 field goals, but on 49 attempts) and was one rebound and three assists short of a triple-double.

The three-time defending East champions will play top seed Toronto in round two.

Great effort again from Indiana's Victor Oladipo, who as a 6-4 guard led all players with 12 rebounds while scoring 25 of his team-high 30 points in the second half. Oladipo poured in 58 points during the final two games of the series.

Fantastic night for Stephen Curry, who recorded a triple-double - 39 points (8-of-15 on threes), 12 assists and 10 rebounds - as the Warriors won 122-110.

Also a great night for Myles Turner, who came off the Pacers' bench to score 31 points in 27 minutes, knocking down 12 of his 17 field goal attempts. It was just way too much Curry and Draymond Green (22 points, 10-of-15, 11 rebounds).

Golden State's incredible start continued as the Warriors improved to 40-4 and have won by an average margin of 25 1/2 points.
