People in Boston love to root against LeBron James.

But that hatred apparently doesn’t extend much far beyond New England.

Ahead of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Boston Celtics and the Cleveland Cavaliers, the folks at sportsbetting.ag analyzed Twitter data to learn which team was garnering more support. Essentially, sportsbetting.ag looked at which people in which states were posting the Celtics or the Cavs’ playoff hashtags, such as Boston’s #CUsRise.

And, well, let’s just say King James has far more subjects in his court.

We see you, Alaska!

The lack of support for the Celtics isn’t all that surprising. ESPN, for one, has picked against Brad Stevens and Co. throughout the NBA playoffs.

You’d think that would lead more fans to hop aboard the underdog’s bandwagon, but apparently not.

Everybody is trying to jinx my team......:smh:






Cavs been in 6 of the 12 last Eastern Conference Finals

LeBron been in 10 of the 12 last Eastern Conference Finals..
 
This is why Kyrie left, lol. They got Lue clapping:roflmao2::roflmao:

They are getting them excuses ready for Lebron if he loses. If he wins, he won on his own.



Nah Kevin Love, JR Smith and Korver have been getting all kinds of credit for their play against Toronto, against the Pacers they were coming up small so they got no credit
