I know it's only one game and that I should control my inner basketball meatball.
Still, it was absolutely delicious to see Dwayne Wade tossing the ball away in
disgust as he and the so called "King", LeBron James,
conceded defeat in game one of the Eastern Conference finals.
For tonight at least, the team game of the scrappy Bulls won out over the ME first
symbolism that Miami and it's so called "big three" represent. Things
may change come Wednesday night, I know that. My heart is with the Bulls but
I won't allow that to let me get delirious here. Trust me folks, Lebron James
will be not go invisible like he did tonight. Neither will Dwayne Wade.
Love them or hate them and I truly detest them both, they are the best at
what they do in terms of the hardwood. Tonight though, there is much to
savior in Chi Town before the quest for the grail resumes on
Wednesday night Did you love it Chicago when young Taj Gibson posterized
Dwayne Wade? Did you love the camera shots of Lebron James sitting
dazed on the bench late in the fourth quarter. I did. Yet, my
glee for Miami's beat down is tempered in some respects. To be truthful,
the Miami deathstar is still under construction. It is powerful
but not as powerful as it will be in the years to come.
When the Heat gain wiggle room in terms of their salary cap,
you know that they will address their low post deficiencies and
become the wrecking machine that they think are now.
When the salary cap provides them wiggle room, Miami's bench
will not be the question mark that it is now. For the moment though,
this is the Bulls best chance to stick their thumb in the eye of ego and greed
and selfishness. This is the best chance for the Bulls to play David to Miami's
Goliath. I say again Bulls fan, Miami will not be vulnerable forever. This year, 2011,
is the year that the Bulls can bring balance to the force and send LeBron
and his mercs home for the summer. Nothing would make me happier
than to see LeBron and Dwayne Wade standing at the podium after being
eliminated by the underdog Bulls. I wonder though. Who will LeBron
blame this time if the Bulls deny him another trip to the finals? King?
We'll see. Jordan he definitely isn't. Jordan had heart. Jordan had will.
LeBron? He has a bank account full of zero's and a quick blame finger.
I hope you were watching tonight Cleveland, I hope you were watching.
May the force be with you Cavaliers fans, may the force be with you.
