INDEPENDENCE: LeBron James likened playing the Golden State Warriors to facing Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers: No lead ever feels safe.
“The Warriors are really the toughest team to go against when you’re up,” James said Friday in advance of the NBA Finals Game 4. “When you’re up big on them, you’re really not up big. It’s almost like going against the Green Bay Packers. If you’re up a couple touchdowns versus Aaron Rodgers, you just know you can’t relax. Because one 60-yard bomb here and 70-yard connection here and now they’re right back in the game.
