You've all heard the story- Lebron James went barreling into the crowd in Game 4 and wound up screaming at his own mother. This information is too hilarious to pass up on this blog, so I will comment on it starting NOW.
Lebron has the angle on Pierce, Pierce wraps him up to prevent the easy jam, and Lebron carries him into the crowd like a bucking bronco. It's funny enough watching Pierce trying to corral James, which he does about as successfully as a midget tackling a Buick. Eventually, awkwardly, they make it to the crowd, where some random woman starts flipping out. From the Globe story this morning, Pierce says that he knew it was Lebron's mom, (I sure as hell didn't) had no idea what she was saying. It was all crazed gibberish. Kevin Garnett, who is always eager not to fight, even if Anthony Peeler elbows him straight in the face, quickly assesses the situation and, like a true gentlemen, pulls her away and coos something sexy into her ear. They know each other well. After all, I'm pretty sure they went to high school together.
Just kidding! She's a good deal older than him. However, rumor on the street is that Sam Cassell took her to her senior prom.
The best part, of course, is Lebron, upon realizing that this crazy woman is in fact his own mother, pauses for two seconds and then screams, out of nowhere, once the situation is diffused, "SIT YOUR ASS DOWN!" To which KG responds, "Woah, dude, not cool, not cool at all.... woah..."
After the game, Lebron said that he shouldn't have used that kind of language, and that he just didn't want his mother to get in trouble. Fair enough. However, I think it goes a LOT deeper than that. After all, she got him in hot water when she bought him an H2 in high school, and then there was that, um, unfortunate macing at the hands of the Cleveland PD for which she got community service. Lebron fired his legit agent to be represented by his buddies. This little dustup makes me wonder if BronBron is getting a little sick of the hangers-on.... and who wouldn't?
Paul Pierce says he wants to put this behind him, but if I were him, I would say this just before tipoff:
"Hey Lebron, your mom asked KG for a ride to the airport after the game because her license was suspended for that macing incident, but he's going be super busy chugging RedBulls and screaming into the mirror. I think he'll forget to tell her, so can you tell her? I would, but I don't want to get screamed at by a crazy lady on national TV again. That was way awkward, but I know it was much worse for you. You know, because nobody wants family screaming matches to be broadcast on national TV. Anyway, have a good game. Oh, but could you tell me where your mom's sitting, because hired a bunch of extra security to protect me from her until I can file the restraining order."
