Idk Cavs got plenty of open looks that they missed. Kyrie hasn't really been selfish. Too many turnovers and poor defense keeping them down in the game.

LeBron is still the best player in the NBA and a one in a generation talent. But I cant seem to grasp how much help this once in a generation player constantly needs to be an elite team. Shaq and Jordan didnt need their GMs to always bring in multiple All Stars from the outside, they rose their team up to wins.

Talent wise imo he's better than Jordan but it's the mentality that separates them, Jordan would never be 'ok' with losing a finals

The Bulls teams all had way more talent than the 2012/2013 Heat.

9 points from the Cavs bench. No surprise. They have no depth. I don't know why people think this team is deeper or better than the 2011-2012 or 2012-2013 Miami Heat.

I wonder if Lebron lost too much weight, he seems really weak on the ball for some reason.
