LeBron James sees 'karma' in Cavs rout
ESPN.com / 1-12-11

During the fourth quarter of his former team's historically poor showing against the Lakers on Tuesday night, James apparently used his Twitter account to send a message to the struggling Cavs.

"Crazy. Karma is a b****. Gets you every time. It's not good to wish bad on anybody. God sees everything!" James wrote while in Los Angeles with the Heat for Wednesday's game against the Clippers. The account is verified by Twitter.

The Cavs lost 112-57 to the Lakers, the fewest points the Cavs have ever scored in a game and the fewest the Lakers have allowed in the shot clock era. It was the Cavs' 11th consecutive loss.

"God sees everything?" Then He knows what an asshole douchebag you are...

FUCK YOU JAMES

1. I predict "Karma is a bitch" will be one of the most often heard phrases in Cleveland
when the Heat inevitably choke in the playoffs.

2. Well maybe they will and maybe they won't---
but so far---predictions---especially from this silly forum aren't panning out.

BTW: Didn't the Celt's choke last year in the finals?

4. No alot of predictions here are right on target:
Alot of people here said James is a self centered idiot douchebag. He's proven that to be EXACTLY right.

11. No---it's just another dumb ass post.
The topic was about playoff prediction--- not about LeBron being a douche.

8. If by "choked" you mean
lost a game 7 road game in which they were underdogs by 4 points, then yes, they did. But certainly by that definition, one could say Miami has the NBA's biggest choker playing for them now.

13. The very definition of a choke.... with hats T-Shirts and Bill Russell included.
LOS ANGELES (AP)—The trophy, the champagne, the hats, the T-shirts. Even Bill Russell and Kevin McHale. Everything was in place at Staples Center for the Boston Celtics to wrap up their 18th NBA championship.

And then the Lakers shoved everything back in its boxes and sent all the Celtics in sight back to their hotels for two more days.

With an emphatic, historic blowout win in Game 6 Tuesday night, Los Angeles earned the right to host the grand finale to both the NBA season and this scintillating chapter in the league’s most glamorous rivalry.

Kobe Bryant(notes) scored 26 points, Pau Gasol(notes) added 17 points and 13 rebounds, and the Lakers held Boston to the second lowest-scoring performance in NBA finals history in an 89-67 victory, setting up a winner-take-all Game 7 on Thursday.

Faced with elimination for the first time in this postseason, the defending champion Lakers didn’t flinch. Just look at Bryant, who still hasn’t cracked a smile during the quest for his fifth title—the same number as Magic Johnson, and one behind Michael Jordan.

18. You are correct, of course,
Edited on Thu Jan-13-11 03:41 PM by hughee99
Traditionally, most of us think of a "choke" as a favorite (usually a significant favorite) losing a game that they should have been able to easily win, or against an opponent that should have never had a chance. To significantly under-perform based on expectations. For example, one might consider losing to Notre Dame in a bowl game to be a "choke".

In reality, however, the "very definition" of a choke is an underdog losing on the road in a game 7 by 4 points, provided T-shirts and hats have already been printed up. :sarcasm:

By the way, given my avatar, you seriously missed the boat on the "very definition of a choke". You struggled so hard to make a tough Celtics loss look the Boise St. kicker blowing a couple of bunnies against Nevada, and completely missed the '07 Patriots (now THAT's a choke). Come on Trumad, you're better than that!

22. I think I understand now... Are you thinking of the '05 MIAMI HEAT?
If you're looking for a team that lost at home with a chance to clinch, I think you might be thinking of the '05 MIAMI HEAT, who lost game 7 of the eastern conference finals AT HOME.

It sounds like you're suggesting that game 6 of the '10 NBA finals was at Boston, when it fact, it was at the Staples center.

16. Can't win them all can you?
You do know the Heat have the 3rd best record in the NBA... a 1/2 game out of the lead in the East...

Yeah you know that but you just want to be a douche.
