LeBron James knows the odds are stacked against the Cavaliers. He’s lost sleep over it.
The Cavs are down 2-0 in the Eastern Conference finals to the Boston Celtics

”I mean, I lose sleep
Youth John Kelly Jersey ,” the three-time champion said following the team’s morning shootaround. ”At the end of the day, when you lose any game in the postseason, it’s never comfort. Playoffs is never comfort. There’s nothing about the playoffs that’s comfortable until you either win it all or you lose and go into the summer.
”So for me it’s always day to day grind to figure out ways that you can be better.”
Only 19 of 300 teams (6 percent) have overcome a 2-0 deficit to win

James also lost four series when falling behind 2-0.
Game 3 essentially comes down to a must-win situation for the Cavs. No team has overcome a 3-0 deficit (131-0).
James is trying to reach the NBA Finals for the eighth straight time, a feat accomplished only by Celtics greats Bill Russell, Sam Jones

Of course, with James potentially becoming a free agent this summer, Game 3 carries even more weight for the Cavs.
