Hoping this would be the first game for Lebron as a 40 year old.

We weren’t going to beat them at home. They’re good. As long as they eliminate the Celtics, I’ll be rooting for the Cavs coming out of the east. Donovan Mitchel is playing at his pace, at a very high level. The game has slowed down for him, like for SGA.

there was probably a small window for us to trade LeBron for him and Allen this off-season with the threat of losing Mitchell for nothing, but obviously we didn't entertain any of it.

I'm sticking to my guns of Knicks/DAllas finals from b4 the season, even though Luka's Injured, he'll come back. If It's not Dallas It's OKC
