After the Washington Wizards defeated the Cavaliers 101-99 on Thursday night, guard DeShawn Stevenson was quoted as saying that LeBron James was “overrated.”
Whether it be the unshaven caveman beard or the fact that James has a history of torching the Wiz, it wasn’t exactly a smart decision on Stevenson’s part. You see, when James is angry, he plays better, and it’s hard to play better than leading the league in scoring and nearly averaging a triple-double per.
And yes, Gilbert Arenas, may have a better outside stroke, but it’s easy for Stevenson to say considering the fact that a YouTube video in which Arenas lit up Stevenson — shooting one handed, made Stevenson famous.
All in all, it doesn’t make sense, having a nobody call out the King. And as far as the contest goes, both him and Drew Gooden are losing.
Just like the Wizards have done against the Cavaliers in each of the past two first round playoff series.
