LeBron's last game with Cleveland

Tonight LeBron James proved he is the king.

The king of quitting.

Seriously, this man is overrated, how can he be the greatest player in today's world when his team had the best record in the last two season's and failed to reach the NBA finals?

James is no super hero who can be seen as one of the greats to be talked about in the likes of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

He simply turned his back on his team, the city of Cleveland and himself.

Passing up shots, back peddling when his team had yet to attempt a shot and turning over the ball repeatedly in a game where Cleveland needed to continue their season; he gave the attitude of "It's fine, it happens," and it is not what I view as one of the characteristics of a legend.

If it were Jordan or Bryant, neither player would had sat back and let their team sink in a elimination game like James did tonight; they both would had taken control of the game and win the game at their own will.

James made no excuses for the failed season after finishing the season with a Cleveland Cavaliers record 61-21 and winning his consecutive season NBA Most Valuable Player award.

But he showed through his body language that he was done with the Cavaliers after seven seasons.

The careless reaction of what had happen to the team's collapse, his fall in the series and the endless questions if he will return to the Cavaliers.

I see James leaving Cleveland this off season, but I don't know where.

The scary though is him and another superstar like Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh or Joe Johnson teaming up on one team.

James would never achieve winning a NBA championship with the attitude he showed in this series. He gave up.

One more thing, I finally hit the bull's eye, I predicted the exact winner in the series and the exact number of games the team would take to win it.

Celtics are better than ever

The Boston Celtics are back.

The team that won its seventh NBA Championship two years ago, are back to contend for another one.

A team that was written off as too old to compete with the likes of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Orlando Magic and Los Angeles Lakers, have made a 180 and now seems to be able to beat anyone.

The Celtics are currently in a 1-1 tie with the Cavaliers in their best of seven series, and Boston is looking to take the lead when the series resumes back in Massachusetts.

As a loyal Lakers' fan, I hate to admit this thought, but the Celtics are the team I am pulling for in the series.

Not only because I know they are going to win this series, but the fact that Cleveland fans are so ignorant and stupid to believe their team is the best with the mediocre players they have surrounding LeBron... is why I want them to lose every year.

Believe me, I would love to see Kobe Bryant capture his fifth NBA Championship by beating "LePrick" James and Shaq, but on behave of the rest of the NBA, we would love to see the Celtics and Lakers get it on again.

The Celtics are healthy and are playing their best basketball of the season, that said, they have the recipe to make it back to the finals for another showdown with their foe.

Trust me, the Lakers have their ticket to the finals set, the Utah Jazz and most likely, the Phoenix Suns are not going to be a threat to them.

I will say it again, the Lakers will not repeat if they get beat by themselves, no one can beat L.A. in a seven game series.

On a final thought, let the rivalry continue Boston and L.A.
