Basketball Jones

Hey.

I'm in some serious withdrawal right now. 

We were able to watch two of the best conference finals I've seen in years. Every night we either had Kobe and Melo or LeBaby and Superman. 

Now there is nothing.

Damn you NBA. Did you just assume the CF's were going 7 games? Why do we have to wait SOOOOO LOOOOOOOOONG to see the Lakers win? [Dear God: please let the Lakers win]

I know, I know. Just one more night. I am going crazy though. I think I've read every article and watched every video on nba.com, si.com, and nba.com.

One more night.

Sigh...

King Baby Lebron James

I know Lebron really wanted to win, and I suspect he really didn't want any of us to see him cry...but if little kids can pull it together enough to shake hands after a tough loss, shouldn't someone going home to his mansion and half a billion dollars be able to shake hands?

"...I"m a winner...it's hard to congratulate someone when you lose...that doesn't make me a poor sport or anything...when someone beats you, you don't go congratulate them..."C'mon Le Bomba. 

Yes, that does make you a poor sport. In fact, that is the definition of being a poor sport.

This is what happens when little kids get drafted out of High School and handed hundreds of millions of dollars in endorsement deals before they are even finished with puberty.

I will bet my bank account against Lebomb's that if the situation was reversed, he'd be crying about the other team not bowing down to...excuse me, not properly congratulating the so called "King".

Stay classy, King Baby.
