James, who sat out Cleveland’s final four regular-season games to rest for the playoffs, was on the floor more than three hours before tip getting in some extra work. He’s waited almost one year to spit out the bitterness of coming up short last year and isn’t taking any chances.

Before the game, he conveyed that to his teammates.

“I told them, this is what have all waited for,” he said. “This is why we play hard throughout the regular season and throughout practices—to get to this point. As much as we loved the regular season, we love the postseason even more.”

Noah’s comments about Cleveland have further angered Cavaliers fans, who have grown to dislike him. In a game earlier this season, Noah took exception to LeBron James dancing on the floor and had a heated exchange with the league’s reigning MVP.

James dismissed Noah’s harsh comments about Cleveland.

“Noah is one of those guys who likes attention,” James said about 90 minutes before tip-off. “I would never, for the most part, say anything like that. But that’s just me and our team. It doesn’t take our concentration away from what’s at hand and that’s that team over there. We’re not going to worry about what city we’re in. We’re playing against the Bulls and we have a game plan.

“I don’t get too far into what he says. It means absolutely nothing to this series.”
