All those NBA followers on television and in the media on a first name basis with “LeBron” couldn’t get it out fast enough.
“Not his fault,” they hollered as a chorus of one before the lights had even gone out at Oracle Arena on LeBron James and the Cavaliers after Game 2 of an NBA Finals that seemed finalized by the end of the night.
“Don’t blame LeBron,” they all chirped.
“Man can’t do it himself,” they cautioned.
Suddenly he had no teammates worth a damn. His coach wasn’t worth a damn, either. Hell, the Warriors weren’t even worth a damn to some of LeBron’s coat holders.
