Excl – Surprisingly, my stress levels this time around are pretty low. Winning the title softens the blow, but I’m resigned to the fact that the franchise is handcuffed on the immediate improvement front. I’d prefer for LeBron to stay and cement his legacy Cleveland’s greatest athlete of all-time, but if he wants to bolt and lose to the Warriors elsewhere, he’s just hurting his own image.
Last season’s eye-popping stats aside, I think people are looking over the fact that he’ll be 34 in December and he has a ton of miles on his body.
