LeBron James Should be Banned from Twitter, Game 6 After Now or Never Tweet

10/06/2011

Early Thursday morning, at around 3am, LeBron James decided it would be an outstanding idea to log on to his Twitter account and tweet to the world three words that will forever live in infamy: “Now or Never!!”

This tweet made zero sense…considering we were heading into Game 5 of a tied series, not an elimination game. I don’t know if LeBron realized that, but it really doesn’t matter since he seems to rarely think before he speaks… or tweets.

With this tweet, all LeBron did was put added pressure on his shoulders. Once again, he crumbled with the insurmountable pressure weighing down.

Despite a triple-double, LeBron and the Heat lost Game 5. The series isn’t over, but if we listen to James and Chris Bosh, it clearly is.

These are the words of the Heat’s biggest acquisitions last summer. Game 5 was now or never, they are either winning or losing the series based on Game 5. These two have zero confidence in their abilities to win two games at home.

That’s it. Game, set, match.

The best part about it—these aren’t the words of anybody from the media—these are the words from the two superstars Dwyane Wade recruited to South Beach to guarantee more than seven Championships as LeBron said.

Were you trying to convince your Twitter account that it was ‘Now or Never?’ You needed Twitter to hype you up for Game 5 of the NBA Finals? Are you kidding me!? Stay off Twitter—in fact, your agents should ban you from the account altogether.

Actually, you should be man enough to just delete the damn thing because you’re doing yourself more harm than good.

I said the series should have been a sweep. I said that you would go out there and prove the critics wrong for Game 5 immediately following the Game 4 collapse. I was wrong and in the process you made yourselves and your followers look stupid.

Sorry guys, but you failed.

LeBron and Chris, do yourselves a favor and don’t even bother showing up for Game 6, just stay in Dallas. If you don’t have the confidence in yourselves, why should I anymore?
