Can't blame them...they've played collectively a shit ton of basketball in the last 3 years and as a fan it has been a pleasure to watch them.Lebron is a top ten all-time player but his run at top 3/GOAT is very much on the line this year.
I don't know if Lebron will leave Miami, but I guarantee Riley will makes some moves after they lose because the way they are now they simply cannot win. Again, no hate, still a great team, but they cannot beat multiple teams (OKC, Indiana, maybe a few others in west) in a 7 game.
