Welcome to 2009,
What a fitting way to start off the new year here at 24 seconds, then to take a look at the future of the game. With freakish athletic abilities, improved jump shooting and defense, and a "crab dribble" that is second to none, LeBron James is writing his own version of the basketball bible, The King James version that is..
On Sunday, the usual crew of AG, Mike Tillery, and myself headed to the Cavaliers game against the last place Washington Wizards. Now mind you, these teams played on Christmas Day, with the Wizards finding a way to lose (Cleveland went on an insane 11 point run with a 1:30 left to win). Sunday was more of the same, with the Wizards mounting a large lead only to see the Cleveland LeBron's march their way back into the game. All of a sudden, an arena that was once dormant had a distinct playoff feel once again. The rivalry that has been bred through the matchups in the last 3 playoffs was evident..
The Game came down to a 2 point Wizard lead when I turn to AG and say "LeBron is going to the bucket, AND 1 and the game is over!"..And LeBron does just that, well that and the now infamous "crab dribble". Nonetheless, the sheer fact that everyone in the arena knew that he was going to do that attest to the athlete and basketball player that he has become..
Ultimately the Cavs took the L, and the fellas and I ventured to the locker room for our usual post game routine. Of course gave his normal postgame interview, but you know we had to get our exclusive video once again (The walk through the halls of the arena is becoming somewhat of a trademark, lol). So watch as we catch up with LeBron and talk about everything from watches and headphones, to the hard work it takes to be a player in the NBA. Once again, AG asks the questions, Mizzo gets his top flight security on, and I get my Quentin Tarantino on behind the camera. Enjoy.
Like Always,
Peace.

Good job Jeff, you are the man behind the camera...and Michael was getting his Top Flight on...that's funny!
And yes you are correct, that walk is our trademark.
