It's just a shame he couldn't do it another way beside assembling a big team. Because in his own way he will go down as goat
Cramping so bad you're unable to play? Of course that can happen. That's the nature of cramping. Cramping so bad you need to be CARRIED off the floor? This is where it draws the ire imo, also lebron haters
I dont understand why this is a story. Outside of like 20 twitter tough guys, no one else is calling out lebron. Especially not anyone with an important voice.
Agreed. This is a story for the ESPN comment section. Well ESPN comments AND hockey fans. Why is it every time a football or basketball player does something like this it makes hockey players TOUGH AS NAILS?
Spurs forward Tim Duncan suffered through cramps during the fourth quarter and overtime of San Antonio's Game 7 loss to the Dallas Mavericks in the second round of the 2006 playoffs. And he's made it a point to stay better hydrated ever since. "There is no shaking it off," Duncan said. "Your body is shutting down and you're unable to move. Whatever is cramping, you're unable to get away from that. It's easy to say to shake it off, but once it's gotten to that point, it's hard to reverse in a short period of time."
Not sure if you have played sports but a cramp is a muscle spasm that locks up that body part. It has nothing to do with mental toughness. I have played with fractures and even with a ligament tear but no one can play through a cramp.
The people in this thread who said Lebron should play through the cramp are the same people who ha never exerted themselves in a sport hard enough to know what the feeling is.
