Washington Post columnist Michael Wilbon comes to the defense of LeBron James for leaving Orlando after the Cavaliers’ Game 6 loss Saturday night without congratulating the Magic or talking to the media.
LeBron James “has made hundreds of decisions and utterances that play out in public. It happens a half-dozen times every day of his life, at arenas, and charity events and hospitals, representing the United States or the Cleveland Cavaliers or Nike or any of a dozen different corporate sponsors; he has to say something appropriate or greet someone in an awkward situation or act as the team leader and primary decision maker,’’ Wilbon writes.
“And 99% of the time he does exactly the right thing. If we’re keeping count on the behavior scoreboard, its LeBron James Gets It Right 299, LeBron Goofs 1. That’s the ledger.’’
Diane Pucin had a different take on LeBron today in the L.A. Times.
