And now the LeBron James crowd is pissed. That's good for us, though, because it led to a lot of amusing tweets.

In 3 games we went from Is Lebron better than MJ to KD is better than Lebron

My favorite hot take right now is that KD is better than LeBron because he is playing well on a team that had 73 wins last year
