Lebron James Showed Poor Sportsmanship
Lebron James by everyone’s standards is one of the best players in the NBA, but he failed the sportsmanship test miserably. I will agree he is a top notch player, but when you lose you need to man up and congratulate the other team who beat you. The Magics played better then James supporting cast and he should have been on the court to congratulate them on a well played series, but he choose to run and hid.
According to various reports he was upset because the Cavaliers lost, well that is part of the game as we all cannot be winners. James had a great series, but probably will be remembered for the disappearing act he did after the series was over. It is a shame that a player such as him would pull a stunt like this. Hopefully he will explain his actions and show the Magics the proper respect they deserve for playing a great series. James will take a hard hit on this one no matter what his explanation is.
