Celebrating at the top of a first championship race, LeBron James brought Anthony Davis a bit down to earth when he pointed out how sore they are going to be.
AD and LeBron James together are a double whammy the NBA has virtually no response to at this point. They both dominate at both ends of the floor, and they can both get easy buckets for themselves quickly.
They went through the Western Conference with virtually no resistance and with a 12-3 record.

LeBron describes the pains of winning a title to Anthony Davis
When the team finished their championship celebrations in the arena, James and Davis were seen talking to each other. James seemed to be saying something important but funny to Davis.
It was later revealed that he was describing the kind of pain AD will surely feel once they leave Disney World.
LeBron told Davis about the fact that only after winning the championship do players not freeze and undergo their normal recovery procedure. Therefore, the bodily pain will surely start on the flight back to Los Angeles.

The Lakers will be jubilant on the way back. It really has been a long and arduous journey to an NBA title. They are also likely to be the shortest-lived NBA champions (as the next season will end before October), unless they repeat.
Rondo, KCP, Alex Caruso and Dwight Howard have been crucial to the Lakers’ success in this year’s playoffs. They will probably bring back most of this list.
