People thought PG was 100% headed to LA after last year too. Toronto got a top 5 player in the league without giving up OG or Siakam, got Danny Green to boot, and got out from DDR's contract which was...not great.
Update: He finished with 33-10-11.
That line has been accomplished exactly four times in the history of the Finals. LeBron has done it three of those four times.
It wasn't close to being good enough last night.

LeBron's over/under for points+rebounds+assists is 57.5 tonight.
He could go for 40-8-9, only the 5th time that's been done in the history of the Finals (he's done it twice previously), and the under would still pay out.
Yeah to be clear, I don't think this is league ordered rigging or anything because it makes zero sense for them to want a sweep. It's just sheer incompetence on behalf of the officiating at this point.
