Lebron & Sportsmanship



The new hot topic this week, for a minute, was the fact that as he missed a three with under 20 seconds to go, and his Cavs were down about 4 or so in OT, Lebron James just headed off the court as his team played D to finish the game vs the Hawks. There was about 13 seconds left on the clock, but Lebron headed to the lockerroom.

The problem with this is that Lebron is the team leader. Walking off like this shows no unity whatsoever, or good sportsmanship for the opposing team, fans, coaches, etc. While this could seem like everyone's chance to bash the league's golden boy, it probably won't happen again. And yes his newest commercial with the Lebrons and the swimming pool is funny, but I still think he needs to do more for his image with Nike and now the league, if he is to be the "Chosen One".
