Queen James - Brian

An interesting sub plot has been forming for the 2010 NBA playoffs.

LeBron James' elbow is apparently injured. The world may end, so beware.

The reason this is such a big deal to me is that I hate the Cavs. Therefore, I don't much like Cavs fans (mainly only when they brag about their team, which they have had plenty of time to do this season). And now that there is this "injury" to the Queen, every single Cavs fan will use this as an excuse to why they will, eventually, lose in the playoffs.

All of the fans will say how they were still the best team and if LeBron hadn't have gotten hurt, they would have won for sure. Well I have some news for you, Cavs fans. LeBron has repeatedly said that it is not affecting his performance, and that it has been a problem for the past month.

Guess what his numbers have been over the last month? 29.3 points, 9.3 assists, and 8.7 rebounds. And his numbers for the playoffs? 31.1 points, 7.4 assists, and 8.7 rebounds per game. Doesn't seem like he is that seriously injured to me.

So when the Cavs lose, please do not use the injury excuse. You will just look like a whiny idiot.

And yes, I'm still upset that my team lost already in the playoffs. But that has nothing to do with this post. I think.
