Rob GoldbergApr 29, 2018

"I'm burnt right now. I'm not thinking about Toronto right now until tomorrow. I'm ready to go home."

This was at the end of a long interview. He did stay for another question, but he clearly wasn't looking to give a scouting report for the second round after the first just ended.

James played 43 minutes in Sunday's win, only coming out while dealing with cramps, perย Sports Illustrated.

Perย Brian Windhorstย of ESPN, he was planning on playing all 48 minutes in the winner-take-all game.

While he did get some rest during the Game 6 blowout, the four-time MVP still averaged 41.1 minutes per game in the series while scoring 34.4 points and totaling 10.1 rebounds per game. He scored at least 40 points in three of the games, all of them wins for the Cavaliers.

"I just try to do whatever it takes to help us win," James said after the game, viaย NBA TV.

He won't get much time off to recover. Game 1 against the Raptors is set for Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET in Toronto.
