The big news on the sports pages the past few weeks is where is Lebron
James going to sign. Finally the speculation ends and James announces he is
going to sign with Cleveland again. Over the next few weeks the news will be
predictions on how well Cleveland will do this year and what other free agents
they can grab. Thank you David Stern for creating streetball with refs that
promotes the idea of individual players being bigger than the game. I pretty
much stopped watching the NBA about the same time I quit playing myself. I will
tune in occasionally, maybe at playoff time though that is about the extent of
it.
As infrequently as I watch
it is obvious Lebron is a great player who has made the effort to expand and
strengthen his game and also those around him. You're not going to be the
leading scorer on a championship team without putting in the work. When The
Decision hit the sports pages then TV a few years it was a real what the fuck
kind of moment. Now it’s 4 years and a couple championships later and he’s
going back to Cleveland. Maybe Thomas Wolfe was wrong, maybe you can go home
again. Only time will tell.
