Stein's valuation indirectly amplified the rivalry between LeBron James and Cleveland.
But this was something Cleveland was pleased to see.
The "Honest Cleveland Reporter" responded positively, "We are no strangers to LeBron James's performance last night; his six years in Cleveland were all failures like this. We had high hopes, and he never responded. Our leniency spoiled him, but Los Angeles will let him know, not every city will treat him like a king."
The Honest Reporter predicted the reaction of the California media.
They were right.
Because the media in California is not dominated by the Lakers alone, or rather, the foundation of each media outlet is different.
Outlets like the "Orange County Chronicle" act more like media serving the Lakers, focusing on this media can reveal some exclusive scoops and future directions about the Lakers Team.
Places like the "Los Angeles Times" and the "Los Angeles Daily News" often bluntly point out the team's problems.
