From a historical perspective, I’m glad one of the absolute greatest players ever did this in a Lakers uniform. LeBron is simply amazing. Never seen a player like him. _________________ 824 |

When I go by tomorrow I plan to stay in the car. The car folks are relatively safe but the folks swarming the street corners in front of Staples... https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/021/557/conceit.JPG |

I was soooo sick the way we lost game #5, but I have to say it was way more satisfying to finally impose our will on the Heat and kick their ass today. |

I wanted to wait and let my emotions pass before I posted but I just gotta post this and I don't care if anyone reads...
That was the most dominating finals game I have EVER seen. That defense was stellar and its just poetic the season ends on such a concentrated effort filled with heart and hustle to win it all.
A few minor tweaks to the roster and this team is competing for years to come. I cannot wait to see what the future holds.
Truth be told, going back to last night, I didn't know what team would show up and once I heard of the lineup change, I knew LBJ was going to lockdown Butler.
This is just what everyone envisioned when Bron signed, this might be a new LAL dynasty and I seriously cannot wait.
I live in Missouri so after the game I literally watched ALL the player interviews from NBAtv to ESPN, after work today I have like damn near 200 videos on my watch later youtube playlist I will seriously get through it all. I plan on doing each guys and official social media accounts. The only thing that sucks is Dwight and JR didn't save their lives from Instagram, so I have to rely on edited youtube videos.
So proud of this team, let's run it back next year! |

Dude, no joke. It will probably take me until at least mid week doing this for 8 hours after work (I have OCD and I am obsessed with the team lol)
Won't even get to Lakers, NBA official twitter accounts, etc until probably tomorrow at the earliest...
If I knew what team would have shown up, I would have taken the day off. I was banking on them winning Friday so I spent the whole weekend in front of my phone/computer lol |
