to move up and down

NBA Playoffs Fashion is the best Fashion. There’s a lot to look at.
What is LeBron wearing.
How do you celebrate your team’s 27 game winning streak? Videobomb your teammates during their post-game interview, obviously. At least if you are LeBron James.
The Miami Heat star decided to videobomb Ray Allen’s moment in the spotlight … and it was well worth it. Click to watch the video.

LeBron James ran a few steps behind the play, knowing exactly what was coming. The lob from Norris Cole arrived, and the NBA’s reigning MVP rose for a catch and dunk.
He made it look easy.
He’s making everything look easy right now.

2012 in Sport: LeBron James takes his place on basketball’s throne
A little more than two years prior, LeBron James found himself in a stunningly similar position: following a deflating loss on his home court, his team was heading to Boston down 3-2 and facing playoff extinction against the battle-tested Celtics.
In May 2010, James, then a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers, was contending with two separate mysteries. The first concerned impending free agency, and the decision — it was still lower case then — he would make. The second concerned his inexplicably passive performance in Game 5 in Cleveland, a 15-point sleepwalk through an integral game.
In June 2012, James’ future was tied to the Miami Heat, and his recent playoff performance had been hard to deny. Still, the memory lingered of James’ half-speed triple double in his last game as a Cavalier, which he capped by taking off his jersey off while cameras remained fixed on him.
Heading into the evening of June 7, 2012, many observers expected another bewildering moment to become part of James’ not-good-enough legacy. (Photo: J Pat Carter/The Associated Press)
Bruce Arthur: It’s not that LeBron James needed to be placed on the cover of Sports Illustrated in an all-black suit, looking worn and weathered and somehow at peace, to be validated. He is the magazine’s Sportsman of the Year for 2012, but it’s the 18th time he’s been on the cover. Other than the fact that he’s only got one championship ring on his fingers, he almost looks retired, on his way to a tribute dinner wearing a watch Miami gave him as a goodbye gift or something. He has always looked older than he is, even when he was 18 and 6-foot-8, 240 pounds. Now he looks aged.
But then, it’s been a long road, and he hasn’t travelled in a straight line. He was 16 when Larry Bird put him in the Hall of Fame; he was 18 when he showed up on the stage in Manhattan in the blazing white suit, like a preacher or a saviour, as the most anticipated No. 1 draft pick of all time. It only feels like a lifetime achievement award because that’s what 2012 felt like for him — his first NBA title after nine years, unexpectedly delivered the hard way; the domination of Olympic basketball, where he is clearly head and shoulders above a peer group that is wide and deep. His third NBA MVP award. (Photo: Walter Iooss Jr./The Associated Press/Sports Illustrated)
After last night’s fall (top photo), it’s probably time to start a Tumblr dedicated to “Dwyane Wade Falling On People.” (All photos from Getty Images)
