So, I guess that means we can put the whole "Super Team" narrative to eternal rest, huh? Granted, it was always just a joke at the expense of an oft-injured, outspoken point guard who had delusional dreams of graduer. Still, it's a joke I no longer feel comfortable making after watching the Cavaliers drag the Knicks lifeless body behind the woodshed and stopping just short of doing the 'Mannequin Challenge' with it. There's no way I can even entertain D-Rose's proclaimation after LeBron - as always - turned Madison Square Garden into his own personal playground, but this time turned the bench during garbage time into the cool table in a high school cafeteria. It's literally impossible to get stunted on harder than the Knicks - and specifically Phil Jackson - got stunted on when LeBron started partaking in outdated viral fads with his friends mid-game. Which brings me to my next point, if you don't think LeBron's decision to try to land a water bottle 5 feet onto the court during live game action has anything to do with the "posse" comment then you are outside of your mind. The King wear many crowns and one of them is for having no equivalent when it comes to passive aggressive acts towards those that have wronged him. Gathering up his teammates to make sure all eyes - and cameras - were on him, flinging a Dasani halfway down the damn baseline, and then instantly diving on the floor as if it was unintentional? If you don't think there was an ulterior motive behind the biggest walking, talking headline in sports throwing himself on the ground as if no one saw him partaking in internet challenges during an nationally broadcasted NBA game then I would like to congratulate you on watching LeBron James for the first time and offer you a sweater to warm up since you've obviously been cryogenically frozen since his career started. That was meant to embarrass a Knicks team that is run by someone who - while not racist - is starting to sound like the PG version of the grandfather who's constantly making those close to him apologize on his behalf. You don't even have to believe me, because this picture says it all...
