Lebron Wearing “XVI” Mouth Guard To Represent the 16 Wins It Takes To Win An NBA Title
MIAMI — If games continue with each member of the Big III scoring XIX or more points, the Heat are good bets to be hoisting a trophy in MMXII. If you don’t know what the heck that means, consider Miami star LeBron James during this playoffs is wearing a mouthguard that reads on the front “XVI.” That’s 16 in Roman numerals, and that is how many postseason wins it will take the Heat to get James his first championship. “You pay attention,” James said to a reporter. “It’s just inspirational. I know this is the biggest part of the season, the second part of the season, so it’s just an inspiration for me.”
Classic Lebron. Just classic. I’m not gonna go make a huge deal out of this because at the end of the day its really not. Plenty of athletes use tattoos and locker room themes and symbols for inspiration. The Giants with their All In Poker chips is a perfect example. But, its classic Lebron in the sense that its just yet another move for attention. Another move for his image. Taking the time to create a custom mouth guard for everyone to see every time he opens his mouth. Its harmless enough, but its just another unnecessary “look at me, look at me” moment. Its just another instance where I say to myself “Who they fuck would even take the time to worry about that shit?” Does wearing a mouth guard with the Roman numerals for 16 really motivate Lebron to win 16 games and take home his first NBA Title? Of course not. Its just another way for King James to keep all eyes on him. Another gimmick for the egomaniac to stay in the papers.
The saddest part is the guy has had such an unbelievable season and has looked so sharp so far in the playoffs, if he wasn’t wearing a custom mouth guard people would probably be talking about his play. But instead he thinks its cool and unique to wearing a XVI mouth guard and once again has people chirping about his image. Its just like Arod. These guys can’t get out of their own way.
A+
I hope this guy gets hit by a bus in NYC and raped by some filthy vagrant with AIDS.
It really is ridiculous and I couldn’t agree more. It really is a product “someone love me” syndrome that both lebron and arod suffer from. Amazingly talented but such a punk. Doubt Kobe or Jordan needed some bs inspirational mouth guard as motivation to win. Winning is the motivation.
i’ll take the mouth guard over the “hey look at me, my hand is sliced and fucked up” any day, and as they say, twice on sunday
Yo Lebron you hear about the hot new trend? Its called cancer you should probably check it out. You will have cancer swag for days
Jesus Christ Knicks, beat them! I guess the Celtics are gon’ have to do it…
honestly you and pres need to stop reaction to every little thing lebron does yeah he’s a diva but like you said he is without a doubt the best player in the nba. a lot of nba players are just as bad if not worse than lebron. Beasley with a “SupercoolBeas” tattoo? AK47′s dungeons and dragons back tat was pretty bad too. Jason terry got a championship trophy tattoo BEFORE the mavs won the championship! A lot of nba players are boneheads and lebrons no different. He’s also playing out of his mind this season and against the knicks.
that being said fuck lebron and the heat for destroying the fragile ecosystem that was the New York Knicks. First we lose by 3000 and lose any momentum we had going into the postseason then shumps knee explodes and finally amare was so “frustrated” that he punched glass and is “questionable for the remainder of the series.” All that’s left in this series is Jeremy Lin rushing back to try to be the savior blow out his knee again a la Boobie Miles and never play basketball again. Knicks franchise over. I burn my melo and Lin jersys and wait another 10 years until something promising happens to the knicks only for fate to viciously rip it away
It’s SO easy to hate him. And hate him I do.
That shit makes him look like an inbred with missing teeth.
knicksgiants hows the gagging goin with lebrons dick deep down your throat. if you think kfc and pres are the only ones talkng about lebron’s image than you seriously need to pull that big black meat out of your throat. the entire world talks about him being a cock sucker minus the special ed… and the worst thing to happen to the knicks is carmelo anthony, guy is a pos.
Thanks for the elongated response knicksgiants30, Lebron is still a douche bag
Mouthguards are gay in general. Lebron’s so trendy for wearing one. I’m sure it comes in handy when he runs into a Chandler screen and he whips his neck back like he got into a head-on collision with a tank. Prolly has R and L stamped on his shoes to remind him which foot goes where too. If he wants to be inspired, he should put MJ or Kobe on his mouthguard.
Why can’t he figure out that nobody likes him because his whole act is going on before he’s won a championship and acting like you’ve won five and not winning any makes you a complete douchebag? That’s where friends can help you. Actually, the shitskins that are his friends/entourage look like they are from the latest flash robbery so I guess they won’t be telling him what the right thing to do is.
when the fuck did every basketball player start wearing mouth guards anyway? and why? how often do they get hit in the face? They make you look retarded and it’s a bitch trying to talk. If you don’t have a helmet on there is no excuse for wearing a mouth guard. I’ll trade cutting my lip once every five seasons instead of wearing a dumb ass mouth guard. It’s not like anyone is gonna get a concussion unless Ron Artest is out there.
F Blog, shit point… ya ya you’re right the best player in the NBA needs a you trolls to notice a mouthguard to give him attention, pathetic
Yo Lebron get AIDS?
It’s so easy for all you idiots especially you brainiacs One Eye Bandit, cripes and jimmyC. We all know LBJ’s mouth guard is dumb, but if any of you bastards ever played sports which I seriously doubt; you would know that all athletes from high school to the pros use something to motivate them. Its obvious anyone with a computer and time on their hands can make a comment. Oh yeah last thing…you guys are real dumb, why would you want anyone to get AIDS? ya’ll bitches should get AIDS riding on his nuts about a mouth guard…get a Fing LIFE!!!..why blame Lebron for being better than the entire Knicks team? aint his fault they SUCK!!! you want to blame anybody, blame the entire Knicks management for not getting good players since Pat Ewing. Blame Carmelo for trying to do EVERYTHING and not play team ball!! Best knicks team anyway was in the 90′s.
