    Default LeBron James: Poet

    LeBron James was asked about being on the verge of the storybook ending everyone imagined when he came back to Cleveland and said, "I don't think people imagined it this way, the route we've taken, and that's fine. Like I always say, every day is not a bed of roses and you have to be able to figure out how to get away from the thorns and the prickles of the rose and things of that nature to make the sunshine. So we've put ourselves in a position to do something special."

    That line isn't consistent at all.

    -Bed of roses
    -Avoid thorns and prickles
    -Make the sunshine <--- should be rose-related

    Ode to Lebron James

    He came to the league with great expectations,
    They dubbed him The Chosen One.
    He gave himself the name King James,
    His haters called him LeBum.

    Athleticism carried him to great heights,
    But he couldn't win a chip,
    So he told the Cavs, "See you later!"
    And turned around and jumped ship.

    He switched his number to twenty-three;
    Like Mike he wanted to be.
    But Mike's shoes were too big - he couldn't fill them,
    As it was plain to see.

    His fanboys would say, "Just watch him play,
    He gets rebounds, assists, and such."
    Good stats he got, but they mattered not
    'Cause he couldn't come through in the clutch.

    The problem was, he couldn't win a title,
    'Til he found a brilliant solution.
    He'd get his ring one way or another,
    By tampering and collusion.

    He won three finals and lost six more,
    His fans forgave his losing.
    "It's his teammate's fault," they always would say,
    As they clung to the stats of their choosing.

    Twenty twenty came - the year of the bubble,
    He brought the Heat to their knees.
    But he couldn't repeat, because Anthony Davis
    Got injured by a stiff breeze.

    Now he's got four rings and three asterisks
    But he never was quite the best,
    He got smashed by Durant, crushed by Kawhi,
    And sonned by Delonte West.

    Actually it makes perfect sense, in fact I remember studying this exact quote as part of earning my masters in advanced linguistics.

    Only problem is you dont got a brain on that level so you aint about the poetic life the way LeAristotle is.

    LeBron is truly a great man.

    LeBron haters are deranged psychos. LeBron hate is a mental illness.

    what the fvck ... your a poet
    and you don't know it.
    You talk the Bron
    But your no fun.
    You talk the ring
    like it's just a thing.
    You give him the shaft
    but you don't look at his past
    Now he is a mature old gent
    But you would call him out fast
    your no fun
    when you talk about the king
    Cause quite frankly you would
    like the thing you call a ring.
