So many Kingdoms but there can only be one king.
In the West it’s Kobe, in the Midwest it’s Durant, in the North it’s Rose, in the East it’s Carmelo, and in the South it’s LeBron.
In this Game of Thrones LeBron James will always be looked at as the hand of the king until he wins an NBA Championship. He has the talent and there’s a blood line to the throne in Miami, but the battle has to be won in all four quarters for King James to finally sit on his iron throne with his hand crowned with ring.
People hate LBJ for The Decision– I don’t. Yea, if I was in LBJ’s entourage maybe there would have been less drama, but the decision still would have been the same. It’s not like LBJ sprayed a bottle of Cristal and yelled “South Beach Baby” while covered in confetti during the Decision. ESPN and advertisers knew this was a decision we all wanted to witness and by watching it we all supported the Decision. What I don’t understand why LBJ haters can’t move past the Decision? Let-It-Go!
LBJ made one NBA finals appearance during his seven years with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2007. He returned to the NBA finals last year during his first season with the Miami Heat, but he only averaged three points in the fourth quarter of the series- LBJ took the heat for the failure to finish and the ring to throne was gone in six games.
Now in season two with his talents in South Beach, LBJ is taking his team to back-to-back finals appearances- third time’s a charm, right? It’s going to take more than luck to stop Durant, Westbrook, Sefolosha, and the Beard. The Thunder may have youth, but the Heat knows how much losing hurts.
With the Heat and the Thunder battling for the heir to the throne we have the perfect storm brewing in this Game of Thrones.
The Heat lead the Thunder 2-1.
