Steph is overrated as hell, he didn't impress me at all. He plays against an undrafted point guard. Think about it, he gets to play literally no defense, sits on his lazy ass on that end, and is able to lose Delly on screens, and shot open jumpers?

Sure, he makes some tough contested ones too, he's a great shooter, no doubt. But his production should have been even better.

Lucky guy, think about it. He barely got to play any defense in this series. Jason Terry, Delly, and even Michael Conley was sideline briefly, and I don't think he was ever quite himself when he recovered.

Irving is a better scorer and ball handler by a mile. Curry's passing/creating out of the double team made a huge difference this series and something Kyrie should continue to develop as he gets older

Lebron needs more than 2 months off.

5 straight trips to the finals, USA basketball, and carrying injured teams by himself the past 2 years has taken a ton out of him.

Next year is his age 31 season, but he's got the body of a player much older despite taking incredible care of himself.

We laugh about the Wade maintenance program, but we might need to start a Lebron one because he can't be an iron-man forever (even though it seems like it).

I think this playoff run and all he had to do to get us here is going to linger with him physically for a while. He's not 22 anymore, and he is racking up some extreme mileage on his tires with no sustained break.

Yes. He needs rest rest rest in the off season, and next season he needs to take games off and limit his minutes.

The jumper will come if his legs are there. And if he has players who can hit shots around him then he can pick his spots better.

The factor no one pays attention to with him is his weight. It has got to be freaking exhausting to attack the basket over and over again at his size.

He'll be rewarded for it. And he deserves it. LeBron's gonna get the biggest contract in NBA history.
 
Holy shit Cav fans quiet as hell. No celebrating for this bitch ass team.
 
I hate that it was against us, but the Warriors winning a title is actually good for the league in a way.

It shows you can win a title without a Duncan/Lebron/Kobe level top 10 all-time player if you construct a good roster.

Thank God Lebron is from Akron so we don't have to worry about having to go about it without him, but it is healthy for the league to have champs occassionally that don't have a "big 3" and are more a sum of the pieces than 1 particular guy.
