Why I "Root On" Lebron To Fail

This video above is why so many people want to see him and the Heat fail.  It's also embodies the reasons why the average sports fan can't stand LeBron James.

This calls for an open letter.

Dear LeBron,
Come on, Queen James, we know you just lost the NBA Finals for the second time, but did you really have to insult the entire NBA fan base? 

Yes, I will go about my same life today, and I will be much happier than you are today, as you bask in your failure once again.  You signed with Miami to virtually guarantee yourself to be the favorite to win the NBA for the next five to seven years.  Year 1:  Epic Fail.  You put yourself in a position where you have to win the championship or be a failure.  Don't throw insults at the rest of us because you're angry you couldn't get the job done.

Yes, I'm actually happy for you that you will be able to do whatever you want to do as well.  Since you make tens of millions of dollars each year, you are afforded many more opportunities than us peons who actually, sadly, pay your salary.

At the end of the day, there is one thing you and I have in common LeBron:  We each have ZERO NBA championship rings!  See, we're not so different after all.

Sincerely,

Not Your Fan

As LeBron continues to not-really-surprise us all with his arrogant attitude, he make the target on his back that much larger.  Now that he has been called out by every sports media outlet under the sun, he is trying to "clarify", umm backtrack, his statements.  You can read about that HERE.

What is your take on LeBron James?  Is he a king or a princess in your book?

Sometimes it's Just that Simple...

Come on guys, make some shots!

This has been a very weird NBA finals. Neither Dallas or Miami has played well.

After game one, almost the entire media (which means the guys from ESPN) were talking about how great Miami's defense was at putting the claps on the Mavericks' high powered offense. All the ESPN talking heads were analyzing what happened to the Mavs and trying to breakdown why Miami was so effective but, sometimes we as fans, can figure out why a team lost and the other won, better than the high paid analysts can. It is actually quite simple. Dallas missed shots, and that's all there is to it. The bench has missed shots all series and that is the real story. Dallas could be up 3-1 if their not so, turbo charged bench played like we all expected it to. Both Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson in game four discussed, how Dallas is getting wide open shots and just can't knock them down. So that doesn't make a great story but it is the truth of it. Dallas' points per game have declined dramatically, and if the bench was reaching its normal average, so would the team as whole.

There is no reason to discuss this series anymore than the media already has. ESPN's coverage is torture enough, so to be fair, I will say just a few things about Miami. Miami has a lot of problems that have been well discussed by everyone. The Heat could have easily won the series already, and still may in the end. Wade and James are the best kids on the court and when the two best guys get together they are hard to beat. The problem is James and Wade are the same kid and that makes it hard for them to both be at their best at the same time. The Heat will most likely get a true big man during the off season and then the championships may just pile up for the foreseeable future. But for now they have problems that are allowing Dallas to outsmart and play them.

To the Heat's credit, putting LeBron on Jason Terry was a great idea, and it has disrupted the flow of Dallas' offense, but Terry had a big game four and if he has two more big game games it may spell trouble for the Heat. Still, if the Heat play with heart and hustle, I don't know if the Mavs can win with just Dirk knocking down shots. Well, no matter who wins the Heat doesn't seem to be getting the star treatment, and this great for the fans. We just might get a thriller of a game seven and no matter how flawed both teams are, as basketball fans, that's all you can ask for.
