If LeBron James is able to get the Cleveland Cavaliers to an NBA Finals win over the Golden State Warriors, this will easily become the finest moment of his Hall of Fame career.
James has a lot of motivation to win it all. He will avoid a potential 2-4 Finals record, win as a huge underdog, win it all without his two best players, defeat the reigning MVP and show the real MVP is, and many other things.
James addressed that a lot of those things are motivation to win, but also hinted there is a secret motivation as well.
"My motivation is to make sure my guys are ready and prepared every night we step on the floor," James said. "And I have some other motivation that I won't talk about right now, but I have so many different things to worry about than being an underdog or guys counting us out."
We've addressed all the possible ones, so no one's quite sure what it is to be exact.
"I hope we win so I can tell y'all," he told reporters.
James is balling out right now so far. He's averaging 41.5 points, 12 rebounds and 8.5 assists per game so far in this series.
Game 3 is tonight in Cleveland.
