Lebron taunts the Magic with a brash display

[Rev]

If Lebron weren't the reigning champ, this would've been a story.

 

[Brief Keef]

he always does this a lot of nba players do this

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

it's not only the game clock that doesn't start until you touch the ball, the shot clock doesn't either... why waste 7-8 seconds bringing the ball up the court when you can let it roll and get a full 24 on your side of the floor? would you rather have 16 seconds to get a good shot or 24 seconds?

 

[Yuzo Lightheart]

serious question what year did teams start doing this. seems like i see this way more now

The one and only true God, Allah, is The Greatest.

 

[Box Cutta]

The FEAR in the announcers voices says alot..."I don't understand this" "what's going on" "why lord why"

NFL/NBA are so damn self conscious of their images that if one of these young bruthas does something slightly out of ordinary it's a shock.

Get em bron....

He's been doing that let the ball roll while bringing it upcourt thing for years now. At least in Miami the past 2 years I've seen him do it.

This, and professional journalist should know the rules.

 

[Kang Deezy]

Rondo does this often too

 

[Danie84]

He was just showing magic, since he was playing Orlando

 

[NYC Rebel]

Listening to those homer ass Magic announcers makes me respect New York sports coverage even more. Outside of Suzzane Waldman or wack ass John Sterling, you don't hear such obvious homerism when games are called here.

I couldn't imagine being forced to hear fans calling themselves announcers.

 

[DStyles]

I do this EXACT same thing on NBA 2k13

How?

I always wanted to do that.


But anyways, that our King

what the hell are these writers talking about


LeBron James takes walking the dog to another level - YouTube



As the ball rolls slowly into the front court, James is not huddled closely beside it in a protective stance, nor does he seem concerned that anyone from the other team would dare try to take it. He walks calmly upright, before picking it up just as the timeline is crossed.

Josh McRoberts briefly pretends as though he is going to contest, but even that minimal effort from the opponent doesn’t phase James in the lightest.

There seems to be value in this tactic when saving time is a necessity, though it doesn’t appear that was the case in this situation. Either way, and as if the opposing team wasn’t fully aware, James made a statement with this play.

He reaffirmed to the Magic that he is the best player in the game today, and that there’s no one on that roster who would dare challenge his abilities — even as he taunts them with such a brash display of being loose with the basketball.

The guy has disgraced the sport since he left Cleveland. Neighborhoodtactics like that are bush league at best. Is he even literate?
