Tomer Azarly: Draymond Green was asked the mental challenge of facing Celtics vs. LeBron James: “It doesn’t compare. He is arguably the smartest guy to set foot on a basketball court. To say that it compares to that, it’s disrespectful to LeBron & it’s a lie to you.”

When LeBron James signed with the Miami Heat, the No. 6 was taken. Mario Chalmers was wearing it.
Chalmers says he got “a nice little duffle bag” of money to switch to No. 15 (which he was already planning to do). 😂 pic.twitter.com/UTO6fsz422 – 7:26 PM

There was never, ever any question about Andrew Wiggins’ ability.

Hard to figure out how Jaylen Brown scores when Draymond is in his area as the Warriors are getting hands on the ball while he’s holding it and then Draymond is shading him left so hard that the only counter is to bounce out and call for a clear out. – 10:17 PM
