Since Steven A said LeBron is going to talk to Boston, the media here has been non stop LeBron on the Celtics?? And its as bad as you might suspect.

They never lost so it's a moot conversation. Find a playoff series they got swept in and we can evaluate it.

I have not really seen a game where the other team is trying so much to try and get someone a MVP. Like they are just passing up shots and their own offense to try and feed curry so much. It has been blatant on duranrts part.

Yeah, if Durant doesn't get it it is silly. Durant won game 3 for them. Curry is just racking it up in a blow out.

Durant has a triple double and a handful of blocks. If Steph's game 3 was just "pretty bad," I'd say it would be a coin flip, but he was so bad that I can't see it going to anyone other than Durant.

LeBron left at the end of Game 1. The look on his face when they said they had a timeout was one of being already checked out. This would have been a different series if they hadn't lost that game I believe.

If LeBron somehow joins the Rockets or Celtics next year they probably win it all.

Other than that we got one more Warriors championship before the Celtics become Spurs-East.

I don't think it negatively impacts him the way some people hold it against Durant because LeBron has already won championships

I wonder how Kyrie feels about all this talk of LeBron going to Boston though

I think it somehow makes it worse. People will say he needs to latch onto superstars to win anything.

It's unfair, but so is the adulation he gets for doing nothing special.

I really think JR Smith is being used as an escape goat by everyone else on the Cavs. When people starting piling on and pointing fingers like that it aint healthy at all. It was more than just that single mistake that cost them that game. It cracked them open though and showed everyone how fragile they were.

GG Warriors and grats to Durant for repeating Finals MVP. He deserved it after putting in all that work in the regular season and the playoffs and of course game 3.

The last 2 minutes of game 1 ended the series. Just like the game winner in game 1 ended the series versus Toronto. No coming back from it.

I think there's still a chance Lebron will stay in Cleveland but after what he did to JR Smith, they're going to have to trade/waive JR Smith and George Hill and trick some other guys into coming in and replacing them.

If Lebron wants to play build a superteam though (and he has every right to after this season), let's consider some destinations:

Thunder (lol imagine that)
Houston (if they can make the space for him why not)
LA Clippers (I think Steve Ballmer would LOVE to have him)
Pelicans (good potential here)
76ers (and here)
Timberwolves (and here but bad scenery)

Places he most likely won't go:
Boston (not while Kyrie is there)
Miami (nah I don't really see it)
Spurs (I don't see him and Pop getting along, could be wrong)
LA Lakers (people talk about it all the time but nope Jeanie Buss and her family don't know what the hell they're doing)
Portland (probably won't like the scenery there)
Utah (won't like the scenery here either)
