Adam WellsApr 27, 2018

LeBron James doesn't want to hear that the Cleveland Cavaliers are under more pressure than the Indiana Pacers to win Game 7 of their Eastern Conference playoff series on Sunday.

Per Sports Illustrated, James questioned a reporter for asking about which team is under more pressure following the Cavs' 121-87 loss in Game 6:

After James' heroics in Game 5 on Wednesday when he hit the game-winning three-point shot at the buzzer, the Cavaliers had a chance to close out their first-round series against the Pacers on Friday at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

Instead, the Pacers handed James his first 30-plus-point playoff loss since Game 2 of the 2016 NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors.

James' teams have never lost a first-round postseason series in his career.
