So LeBron Didn't Shake Hands, Huh?

LeBron was supposed to shake Dwight Howard's hand huh? Because why? Because Dwight Howard is some great sportsman that deserves the respect of a humbled half court handshake from the King after his team bounced LeBron from the playoffs? The same great sportsman that threw powder up in an ESPN halftime interview during the Lakers - Nuggets game, mocking LeBron? In the words of Ozzie Guillen, 'shh please.'

I for one am glad that LeBron James was pissed off about the loss. I am glad that LeBron was so mad about losing that he didn't want to shake anybody's hand, give anybody dap, give anybody hugs, wish anybody good luck in the next round, and exchange pleasantries on national television, while I sat at the Harry Buffalo in Cleveland debating whether or not I should throw my chair through the window of the Corvette that was parked right outside in front of me. Props to my brother for telling me that would only make it worse.

My brother was right, that would have made it worse. And LeBron would have made it worse too had he shown Howard love. He sent him an email. Get over it.

The Herd:10 Championships?

Yesterday on ESPN Radio's The Herd, Colin Cowherd said that if the Magic were smart, they'd get themselves 10 Championships. How you ask? By simply getting LBJ in 2010. Get rid of Rashard Lewis, bring in Lebron James = 10 Rings. Colin went on: "You take the best player in the game (LeBron) and add him to the best Center (Dwight Howard) in the game? Unbeatable"

A little crazy talk, but Herd did have one interesting point in all of this. If the Magic can move some money around on their current roster and make the room, LBJ would have to seriously consider an offer from Orlando. He said professional athletes love playing in Florida and Texas due to the lack of state taxes.

Personally, I don't like to think of James playing anywhere but Cleveland, but at least this isn't New York..
