He Said That? 6/9/15

From LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers superstar:

My motivation is to make sure my guys are ready and prepared every night we step on the floor. And I have some other motivation that I won’t talk about right now, but I have so many different things to worry about than being an underdog or guys counting us out.”

The NBA finals this year has the potential to be one of those epic battles and epic stories. The first two games went into overtime, with the Golden State Warriors winning the first and the Cavaliers the second. The Cavaliers have two starters down for the count, and LeBron James has risen to the occasion, averaging 41.5 points, 12 rebounds, and 8.5 assists per game. Who knows what his “other motivation” might be. The Warriors feature guard Stephen Curry, the league’s MVP. Cleveland has grit; Golden State wins the style points. Stay tuned, tonight is the third game of the series, in Cleveland.
