      Mature? Yall glazing. Remember the year Warriors won 72 games. LeBron's post game interview after winning the ECF went something like this "We'regoing enjoy this while we can" (paraphrasing). This just like that he knows he's gonna lose.

All the other post warrior years either he was injured or his teammates weren’t there)
    And now he’s gonna face the nuggets again in the second round most likely and no one really expect the suns to win so it’s kinda sad really but the media is just gonna bring one of the greatest players ever to play down even more.
