LeBron James won his fourth NBA title. James is in rarified air with his fourth title. There are so few that have that distinction. James and his Los Angeles Lakers came out and dominated Miami from the start of this game to finish. Miami ran out of gas after Game 5, and it showed greatly in Game 6. James and his teammates did the obvious celebrating including J.R. Smith who popped the top faster than a drunk college girl doing a wet t-shirt contest. When LeBron talked with the media, he asked for ‘respect’ from people. Who the fuck doesn’t respect LeBron at this point?

I get LeBron needs a chip to be successful. Michael Jordan did the same thing. But at the same time, I don’t think Jordan pulled the ‘Nobody respects us’ card. James acting like he is this scrappy two-guard is annoying and petluant. People might dislike LeBron or think that Jordan is better but people still know he is one of the best to ever do it. This further solidifies that point by winning a fourth title. He doesn’t need validation from everyone because he already has it.

If this is a nod to not getting the MVP, then Giannis Antetokounmpo truly lives in the deep part of his brain and I absolutely love it.
