SNL expertly trolls Cleveland Cavaliers' reliance on LeBron James
Between single-handedly winning Game 7 of the first round versus the Indiana Pacers and breaking the hearts of Toronto with a crushing buzzer-beater, everybody knows the Cleveland Cavaliers are all about LeBron James.
That seems to include “Saturday Night Live” as well.
Though it didn’t make the live show, the sketch called “The Other Cavaliers” brilliantly parodied the relationship between LeBron and everyone else on the Cavs.
“Whatever LeBron needs, we’ll get it done … ”
“As long as it isn’t basketball.”
Amazing.
And the sketch really isn’t all that off. Just look at LeBron’s 2018 playoff stats:
