Coach Frank Vogel was all praises for his team in the post-game press conference. When asked about LeBron, he said, “I honestly don’t think he is playing any different. I just think that our shooters have come alive after the break. Guys have got their legs under them a little bit.”

He continued, “The last three games we have shot the ball very well. That is one of the reasons why Bron’s numbers are up. James continues to play the same way each night. I just thought he played three really strong games.”

They will surely look forward to defending their title this time around.
