âI spoil a lot of people with my play.â
Wow. We sure love us some me, donât we LeBron?
That quote reminded me of those old Budweiser commercials featuring the âall-ego-Leon.â You remember, he blames everyone but himself for a loss. Then smiles for the camera, so companies that look for athlete endorsements can see his great smile.

No, Iâm not saying LeBron is Leon.
I am however thinking about the fact that James who seemed so polished early in his career, seems to be shedding so of the same humility, that endeared me to him to begin with.
Hey LeBron, next time just think WWJD!
WWJD
What would Jordan Do?
LeBron you used to do that.
We no itâs not really your fault sometimes when you lose. But thatâs just what great leaders do. They take responsibility for the team and move forward.
This has been replaced with âI spoil a lot of people with my play,â and
âWhen you have three bad games in seven years, itâs easy to point them out.â
Yahoo sports writer Adrian Wojnarowski said it best;

âWhat have you ever won to be so smug to the masses LeBron?
Who cares where you end up next year?
Youâve only proven you can be a sore loser.
Who at times seems more focused off the court than on it.
Donât forget, youâve only made the NBA finals, youâve never won them.
And youâve only got there once. (and were swept in 4 games)
But I like you. Iâm pulling for you. I think you could be the greatest ever at your sport.
But you have to win first.
And when you do, please, oh please, be as humble as you are great.
Then youâll be a legend.

I was honestly felt sorry for him after they lost to Boston. He just looked overwhelmed and cracked under the pressure.

Boom Roasted!!!
Also, if he didn't have the team to win it, then why has the Cavs had the best regular season record the last two years?
