Did You See That!?

LeBron James is a freak. Did you see that game-winning, last second three-pointer last night? It was incredible. I still get chills when I watch it. Cleveland fans thought it was over. They were down by two with one second left. What can happen in one second? Well, if you've got LeBron on your team, a lot can happen in one second. That's the beauty of a three-pointer in the sport of basketball. You can dunk all you want, you can alley-oop, you can 360 windmill, behind the back, under the legs, eyes closed, tongue outstretched slam... but it's only worth two points. The three point shot pays homage to what the sport is all about: the ability to put a ball in a hoop from varying distances with skill and efficiency. Watch and be amazed.

Well-put. He is definitely a freak. Gotta love when everyone in the bar/venue you are at when something like that happens shouts a collective "OOOOHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

He is lights out. Bill and I are huge Cav fans, it was a good night around here! To bad they sucked it up last night.
