The latest matchup with LeBron James ended in very typical fashion for the Washington Wizards. The Wizards outplayed the Cleveland Cavaliers for a long stretch of action last night.
Washington led by 17 points with just over six minutes to play in the fourth quarter. And yet, when the buzzer sounded the dejected Wizards walked off the court slowly, following a 119-115 defeat. None of what occurred over the final six minutes was at all shocking.
James owns the Wizards. He has his entire career. But after another gut wrenching loss to a James’ led team, it’s time to realize this as well: the Wizards don’t matter to James.
