Okay, so the Orlando Magic beat the Cavaliers four games to two, putting an end to an otherwise great season for the Cavaliers. Now the buzz about town is the way Lebron left the court without congratulating the Orlando players and leaving the building without talking to the media.
I'm not an expert on basketball and I cannot give you the mechanical reason the Cavs lost except to say that in four games Orlando scored more points, as a team, than the Cavs.
I'm also not an expert on human behavior and can't give you an exact reason why Lebron talked to no one immediately after the game. Only thing I can tell you on that subject is that people put too much faith, or way too much damnation, in their fellow man, whether it be an exceptionally gifted athlete or the president of the United States.
Sports is a good diversion from real life, but that's all it is, a diversion. In my neck of the woods, we have fallout from the auto industry to deal with, as a Chrysler plant, a GM plant and part of another are slated to close. We need to look for that better mousetrap. I'm trying to build one for my son in law. That's the game that's currently being played worldwide.
Lebron James not shaking hands with Dwight Howard doesn't affect my paycheck at all.

I didn't watch more than a minute of any playoff game in any of the three rounds and I told people that I would accept the Cavs as a championship team when people were flipping over cars and burning buildings in the 'hood.
Once again, sports are a divirsion.
And when you consider that the last major sports championship in my home area was in 1964(and I was living out of state at that time) I have just taken for granted that another region will have the champion.
But in the line of thinking like you, after the last game was over, and the Cavs were done, my life still went on, it didn't affect it one way or another (except for maybe that I didn't waste money on a T-Shirt, I have way too many Tribe Division Champion t-shirts, ha). I've said it with the Tribe & we can say it with the Cavs........maybe next year.
Have a GREAT day!!
And I cannot listen to Mike Trivisano.
