LeBron James' 'The Look' inspires Heat to beat Pacers 90-79
Miami is one victory away from NBA finals after 'The Look' spurs surge
LeBron James said a few words at half-time to try and coax something more out of the Miami Heat. Turns out, whatever he said was unnecessary.
The look on his face was all the Heat needed.
With a brilliant third quarter, James immeasurably changed not just game five of the Eastern Conference finals, but quite possibly whatever is still left to decide in this series.
James scored 16 of his 30 points in the decisive period, Udonis Haslem added 16 and the Heat pulled off a second-half rally to move one win away from the NBA finals after beating the Indiana Pacers 90-79.
"With LeBron, it's not what he says all the time," Haslem said. "It's just the look he gives."
And that look was back when the Heat needed it most, just like last year.
