The Show.

Tuesday night the Cleveland Cavaliers were lower than low. They were beaten, embarrassed, humiliated, frustrated - the list goes on. They were the 3rd grader who had lunch money before the 8th grade bully forcefully took it without ever thinking twice. Tuesday night, the Cavaliers - who are the NBA's worst team at the moment - suffered a 55 point loss - yes, 55 - to the Los Angeles Lakers. Blow outs happen, but as if the loss weren't bad enough for the Cavs, in came LeBron James to completely ruin their day. LeBron, who so humbly goes under the name of @kingjames on his twitter account, tweeted that night, "Crazy. Karma is a b****.. Gets you every time. Its not good to wish bad on anybody. God sees everything!" Good thing we have the wise LeBron James here to divinely and charismatically teach us about how to act in the eyes of God.

Just out of curiosity though, did God see it when LeBron gutlessly, abruptly and unsympathetically abandoned his team so he could get what he wanted the easy way? Did God see when LeBron quit on his team, time and time again, because it was a little bit too hard for him? Did God see LeBron's hour-long special in which LeBron forced all eyes on him while he announced to the world that he would be joining a team of superstars, a move that would surely "earn" him a championship ring? Did God see the pain of the Cleveland fans, who had given LeBron nothing but their hearts and souls during his tenure in Cleveland? How about the pain of the Cavaliers, who only gave him millions of dollars and a chance to become a star? Come to think of it God probably didn't see any of that because LeBron can do no wrong. The self-proclaimed king who, with such vast wisdom and insight, has the power to deem his subordinates - who possess the human-like qualities that he apparently doesn't have - just or unjust, right or wrong. Apparently he is emperor of not only the basketball court but also putting us mortals in our place.

I assume that this tweet may have been a jab at Dan Gilbert, who unceremoniously erupted when LeBron "took his talents" elsewhere this past summer. Or perhaps it was directed at the fans of Cleveland, who publicly and justifiably eliminated any trace of respect or care they had for LeBron in the form of burning #23 jerseys, among other acts of anger and intolerance. However, for LeBron to subject the players of the Cavaliers to further embarrassment and humiliation by saying what happened Tuesday night was just and fair? Unbelievable. These are the same players that he abandoned after giving them hope. These are the same players he gave up on, only to eventually deem them unworthy of sharing the same court and same locker room that he occupied. So what did he do? He rode off on his high horse to bigger and better things, and now that he has a spot on top he believes he can look down on those who weren't good enough for him and tell them how to act, how to behave, and how to do right in the eyes of God. Although his tweet's direct target is ambiguous, it's the principal that remains clear as day: LeBron has put himself above everyone. In his eyes, he's God's right hand man, delivering us the message's from above. The irony and hypocrisy that accompany LeBron's words and actions are truly mind-boggling. In LeBron's mind, this is what happened: God saw how Dan Gilbert and the Cleveland fans reacted to LeBron's actions over the summer, and as punishment God used his wrath to make the Lakers win by 55 points Tuesday night. That seems really logical, because I'm sure God really cares about who wins a basketball game. What I don't get is why didn't LeBron just ask God what he should do instead of making a commercial about it? Oh that's right, because he's literally the most self-obsessed person on earth. Maybe he should've just asked the fans of Cleveland, because they had a few great ideas.

There are plenty of athletes I dislike, but there aren't many athletes I don't have any respect for. I don't like Tom Brady, but I respect the hell out of him. Ok, maybe the whole Ugg thing isn't so respectable, but I still have a lot of respect for the guy. LeBron, however, is a coward. He quit on the Cavaliers. He did it in the playoffs last year when things got hard and he did it in the offseason when he knew things weren't going to get easier. He wants things the easy way. If he had a bad night with the Cavs it was on him, however if he won with the Cavs it was because of him. Now if he has a bad game with the Heat he's got Dwayne Wade there to cover it up and make it like it never happened. He was the guy in Cleveland. He's one of the guys in Miami. However, he still acts like the guy. He acts like it's all about him, because his delusional way of thinking tells him that. When LeBron wins a championship (yes, it's hard to admit, but it became inevitable when he joined the Heat) it will not be because of LeBron James. It'll be because of the Big 3, or the "Heatles," as LeBron called them when he modestly compared his team to the Beatles, or whatever other name they can think of to put themselves in their own league.

Despite his ability to effectively play the villain that everyone hates, I don't think he's playing the role intentionally. I just don't think he's a very smart guy, and as a result he's puts himself in situations where all people can do is cringe and ask, "why is it always about LeBron??" After his tweet blew up he backtracked and tried to hide, perhaps realizing how insanely ridiculous that statement truly was. "It wasn't even a comment from me," he pleaded. "It was someone who sent it to me and I sent it out." Regardless of whether this is true or not his belief in the statement remains.
