King James More Like Pauper James:

Lebron James and the Cavs were demolished in a critical Game 5 inside the Q, their home turf. Their franchise player goes 3-14 from the field and stamps 15 points to the stat sheet. The Boston Celtics are known for playing lockdown defense, but with all due respect to the great Boston defense played last night, it didn’t seem like that was the problem. The Cavs didn’t want this victory, and it showed!

  • ·         Jamario Moon was Globetrotting on the bench during a Cavs beat down courtesy of the Celtics!
  • ·         Lebron didn’t take the blame upon himself in the press conference, like a MVP should.
  • ·         Mike Brown having terrible substitutions, which did not help his team.
  • ·         The role players did not step up!

The Cavs were put on their heels and right now they are looking over the edge. They were dumbfound when their MVP was not playing well, which truly shows the depth this team lacks. Shaq was their leading scorer, which should not occur at his age. Mike Brown could not find anything that would run or at least bring some production to the team, which hurts his coaching status. Lebron James had a disappointing response to his play after the game, and during the game his body language showed a lack of HUNGER, AGGRESSION, AND PASSION. Everyone said that he is a great player, but until he wins a championship then he can’t place himself anywhere near a Michael Jordon, Kobe Brant, Magic Johnson, or Larry Bird. With the game he had last night; it will be difficult for him to win a ring.

The other three teams that made it to the conference finals, all had role players step up even when their franchise players were having difficulties, so Lebron has a majority of the blame for last night’s loss but he is not the only one to blame. The Lakers had Pau Gasol step up when Kobe Bryant was struggling. The Phoenix Suns had multiple guys step up from Dudley or Dragic when needed. The Orlando Magic had Mickael Pietrus step up off the bench, and many role players keep a consistent game when Dwight Howard had foul trouble. The Boston Celtics even have Glen Davis and Tony Allen step up and make big shots, and defensive plays when needed.

The Cavs may just be a great regular season team, but when it comes to the playoffs it seems like another team knocks them down, they themselves lack production, or a combination of the two factors. This team seems to be immature when looking at their tendencies. They have a ridiculous routine of taking snap shots of themselves during introductions, dance on the sidelines during games, eat fries from opposing teams fans, and basically having egos that are large, but don’t contain any validity. The validity needed is to have some championships. The other three teams in the conference finals were very focused, and serious about their game play. You don’t see Kobe making foolish hand jesters or a ridiculous snap shot routine. Kobe is known for his subtle but impactful fist clinch, and imitating protruding jaw. I don’t like Kobe, but I do respect his game. Lebron is someone I don’t like and don’t respect because of where his mindset seems to be.
This loss is mainly on Lebron, because as a leader you either lead by examples or create for others. Lebron needs to stop having a business mindset, and start focusing on gaining what he needs, which is a championship.

Here It Is & Remember I don't like Lebron and the Cavs, and was cheering for Boston for the first time ever!
