There has seemed to be a common theme after most games this postseason for LeBron James, and especially in the series against the Boston Celtics, the King is dead tired.
It was the case again on Sunday night after the Cleveland Cavaliers closed out the Boston Celtics at TD Garden Center.
During the trophy presentation, James could be seen lying on the ground, and once he got in the locker room it wasn’t much different.
After doing the huddle breakdown, from his locker stall, he was asked for some comments, and the first words out of his mouth were that he was dead tired. He then went onto say that it was all part of the plan, and he was just trying to do something that his grandkids would talk about.
James was tired, but that didn’t stop the rest of the locker room from celebrating, jamming out to Meek Mill’s Dreams and Nightmares.
J.R. Smith was shirtless, and belting out a tune, and for the Cavaliers, they are hoping that there can be a few more of this postgame celebrations. If that is going to happen though, it’s probably going to mean James is going to have to play a few more games where he gets little rest.
At times this season, James hasn’t gotten much support from the rest of the team, and although he did get some support in Game 7, he still had to play 48 minutes.
He finished with 35 points, 15 rebounds, and nine assists. This was the second game in a row that James was one assist away from the triple-double, but there is no doubt he doesn’t care, he’s moving onto the Finals.
