With the Cavaliers losing back to back blowouts to open the 2017 NBA Finals on the West Coast, Lebron and the gang will head into Game 3 at Quicken Loans Arena intent on bringing intensity for all four quarters of action, as they look to keep the series from drifting to a point of no return. That will mean all five men on the court bearing down, including James, who has been putting on historic performances but has only accounted for four points on five shot attempts in the fourth quarter.
After Cleveland's Wednesday [June 7] shootaround James was asked about the disparity in terms of what he's doing early in the games in contrast to how he's been showing up late. A reporter asked whether he believes his gradual decline might have anything to do with being matched up against Kevin Durant. If what was being implied is that he's been tiring, the answer is no, according to James. "I feel great. I'm averaging a triple-double in the Finals. I'm pretty good, I would think," he replied.
LBJ has been averaging 28.5 points with 13 rebounds and 11 assists thus far. And Durant isn't doing so bad himself, putting up 35.5 points, 11 rebounds, and 7 dishes through the first two games.
