Alex Caruso is in the starting lineup in place of Dwight Howard. It’s the first start of the postseason for third-year point guard. The players are on the court for the opening tip and we should be under way momentarily.

Good evening and welcome to tonight’s Game 6 of the NBA finals between the Miami Heat and the Los Angeles Lakers. We’re back in the NBA’s Walt Disney World bubble after Friday night’s tooth-and-nail battle which saw the fifth-seeded Eastern Conference champions survive to live another day against the heavily favored LeBron James-Anthony Davis package. The Lakers came within seconds of winning their record-setting 17th NBA title, but Danny Green’s potential title-clinching three missed the mark and we’re back for another game with the Lakers holding a three-games-to-two lead in the best-of-seven championship series.
Tip-off is roughly 15 minutes away.
Bryan will be here shortly. In the meantime here’s why you probably had a better weekend than Lakers veteran Danny Green.
