This is not where Kyle Lowry wants to be. The All-Star point guard is out of the playoffs as he and the rest of the Toronto Raptors team were eliminated by the Cleveland Cavaliers last night in Toronto. Lowry had one of his best performances in these playoffs in Game 6. He scored 35 points while also making six three-pointers.

Still, even with Lowry's terrific performance, the Raptors were defeated. Once your team is defeated, you can either sulk about it or be a man and congratulate the other side. Lowry chose the second option.

Lowry gave LeBron James such high praise following the loss last night.

“And I said to LeBron, ‘You a bad motherf'er,' and I told him to go win it all. I've always had mutual respect for LeBron. We have a good relationship, and like I said I just appreciate all the effort and hard work he puts in and just that competitive nature of two competitive athletes going at it. I'm happy for him because he gets another opportunity [in the NBA finals], but I'm disappointed that we're not having that opportunity.”

LeBron and the rest of that Cavs team are still waiting to see who they will play in the Finals. One thing Kyle Lowry and all LeBron supporters know to be true is that James is 100% ready to play in his 6th straight NBA Finals.
