LeBron James

LeBron James made it very clear on Twitter Tuesday the team for whom he is rooting in the NBA Finals. And his choice should not come as a surprise.

James tweeted after the Phoenix Suns beat the Milwaukee Bucks 118-105 in Game 1 of the series. James tweeted at his buddy Chris Paul and said “1 down. 3 to go.”

1 down. 3 to go @CP3

— LeBron James (@KingJames) July 7, 2021

James’ feelings are no shock. He is longtime friends with Paul. James is even pulling for his friend to get a championship despite CP3’s Suns eliminating James’ Los Angeles Lakers from the playoffs.

Game 2 of the series is on Thursday night in Phoenix.
