Good Morning: CP3 Isn’t Happy With The LA Clippers

Game 5 was fairly nondescript, aside from the fact that it was the most important game of the NBA playoffs thus far, with almost no one showing up for either team. Roy Hibbert and Paul George scored Indiana's first 29 points, while D. Wade and Chris Bosh were nowhere to be found. Psycho T and Birdman mixed it up in the second quarter to keep things interesting before LeBron James exploded in the third quarter, leading Miami on a 30-13 run which put the Heat out of reach and gave them a 3-2 lead in the series.
