Just like LeBron's Nike campaign says, we are all witnesses. Now I am one of them. This guy is unbelievable. I just watched him score 41 points and 44 points back to back. Not to mention he leads his team in rebounds, assists, and steals EVERY single game. Last night, he was sent to the line down 2 with almost no time on the clock. The crowd at Amway Arena was deafening to the point that I thought King James would miss at least one of them. Nope. He calmly sank them both to send the game to OT. In the final minute of OT he had a left-handed scoop shot that he made look easy, 2 more free throws, then hit an are-you-freaking-kidding-me 3 pointer as he was falling out of bounds. His 40 ft prayer as time expired barely missed! The best part was, everyone in the arena was shocked he didn't make it! Now that I am truly a witness I see there is no debate when it comes to Kobe v LeBron. Its LeBron James. We are just witnesses.
...with all that said the Magic won both games and are up 3-1!!!!! Kobe v LeBron will have to wait. In fact... while the Nuggets and Magic play each other in the Finals, maybe Kobe can play LeBron 1 on 1 at halftime. (BAM! Feel that Kobe?! Right in the gut!) Without further ado, here are the highlights from games 3 and 4. Once again I was there with full access:
Part I
Notables I saw there include: Shaquille, Tiger Woods, Michael Wilbon, Jon Barry, Kenny Smith, Barkley, Reggie Miller, Ray Lewis, Vince Carter, Carlos Boozer, Usher, Chris Brown, Lil Bow Wow, Chris Tucker, Doug Collins, Marv Albert, and Craig Sager's pink suit.
JJ Redick admitting he has "the shortest arms in the league, like a T-Rex." and also noticing he has braces.
LeBron dropping an N-bomb in front of lots and lots of media and everyone pretending like they didn't hear it... even though they did.
Charles Barkley is 6 feet 5 inches tall, and 6 feet 5 inches wide.
Craig Sager gets told, "hey I like your suit" so many times a night that it wouldn't surprise me to see him walk onto the court drunk and completely naked as he slurred, "ya like my f*cking suit now?!"
The refs try to help out LeBron every chance they get. LeBron doesn't need their help at all.
The Magic have great camaraderie and are always joking with each other in the locker room.
The Cavs just sit around and give angry stares at LeBron as he gives interviews in the locker room.
The Magic live and die by the 3.
The Cavs live and die by whether or not the Magic are living or dying by the 3.
I watched Dwight Howard acquire 11 fouls and 2 technicals. It should have been 2 fouls and 0 technicals.
LeBron is clutch.
The refs are sh!t.
Part II coming soon!
