LeBron’s future

There will be no help – or immediate challenge from anyone, as TFP ace sports columnist Mark Wiedmer here – in this week’s NBA draft
for LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Without a first-round pick, the Cavs can just continue to celebrate Cleveland’s first pro sports title since 1964.

It’s a good time to be on the James bandwagon.

His overpowering performance that led Cleveland back from down 3-1 for a historic title has completely flipped the discussion of his legacy. Only Stewwie and Skip Bayless, who has made himself millions by hammering away at LeBron – with facts being a random and often ignored part of the equation – are able to find nits to pick.
