Nothing has changed regarding the Cleveland Cavaliers

Nothing has changed regarding the Cleveland Cavaliers’ situation despite all the hype about their loss to the defending champion Golden State Warriors in a meaningless game on Martin Luther King Day.

Cleveland and its hyped beyond reason star, LeBron James are still in the weak Eastern Conference and while the Warriors likely but not definitely will have to fend off the San Antonio Spurs just to make the finals, Cleveland appears to have no real competition in its way toward a second straight finals appearance.

In last year’s loss to the Warriors in the finals, James gained some “historic” points by playing well with all the injuries to his team.

However a) his team lost and b) he chose his team and his situation opting for the easy East and that is why despite all the hype by ESPN which is James/James/ James, I feel while he is a great player, even an all-time talent, he is not close to being one of the four greatest players ever as he purports to be.

As with Marco Polo, LeBron James has sought the comforts and advantages of the East.
