Nikos Papaioannou wrote about LeBron James and points out that if you do not win at least one championship will go down in history as just another very good player.
Actually now it is irrelevant what does LeBron James in the regular season. If it disappeared in season 4 and extending one or more games or makes priests and leading Miami from victory to victory.
In the last two games against the Heat Warriors and Clippers, the Chosen One was the famous Frozen One of the last period, astochontas-to-minimal effort it took to send the critical iron shots. Miami defeated in both games. So what? Can the next game to make double or triple to put 60 points and Miami beat or it may disappear again. Again it does not matter.
For-maybe-more gifted in talent and somatodomi basketball player who ever stepped into a park with a career avg 27.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 7 assists, the time has come to be judged by the only objective criterion of greatness. This is no different from the tournament will win.
To start the playoffs in the NBA, nothing of all that will do or will not do that LeBron will be important, because quite simply not the issue. Let's top scorer, we declared MVP, we included the best five, let's step on the moon. If you do not win-I do not believe that we will succeed this year, the champion's ring, then any exploits in the regular season will not mean anything. It makes sense only if accompanied by the league.
In any other case I can not help in categorizing the players with the title "much ado about nothing." Popular, marketable to death by countless individual discrimination, infinite talent, terrible highlights in the regular season, hefty contracts with Nike, Adidas or Reebok and annual revenues of tens of millions of dollars. Immediately immediately I come three such in mind. The Vince Carter, a Tracy McGrady and Allen Iverson. The first was hailed as the successor to Michael Jordan. Scary physical skills. In his best year, with the shirt of the Nets, was avg 27.5 points, 5.9 assists and 4.7 rmpaount. The T-Mac, the Magic had 32.1 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists. O ?The Answer?, culminating in the Sixers reached the point to make 33 points per game, 7.9 assists to share and make 1.9 steals.
All three, like James could fill not one but two stadiums themselves. Sold millions of shirts, it was always the first to vote for the All Star Games in the NBA, became known across the length and breadth of the land and flooded the Internet with incredible highlights. Nike, based on the Carter's revolutionary technology Shox, designing the set of shoes and clothes. The Reebok revived with shoes and clothes ?The Answer? of Iverson. The Adidas poulage like hot buns the T-Mac. On substance, though? Nothing. Leagues? Zero!
I see tremendous similarities of James with these three talented but ... untitled players. Their differences, for the moment is very low. The LeBron, not to go down in history as another Carter, McGrady and Iverson, should at least win a championship. Until then everything and make the regular season is irrelevant. Especially for him!
