By now you have seen the footage - LeBron James walking off the court during another Miami Heat loss and giving the shoulder to his head coach Erik Spoelstra. If not, here it is again:
Pretty obvious that LeBron saw Spoelstra coming and consciously decided not to avoid him. This isn't the first time LeBron has gotten physical with his Head Coach. He did the same to Mike Brown here in Cleveland during a game against the Knicks. Again, to refresh your memory:
To be fair, the Mike Brown bump looked a lot more innocent, with James looking back in anger at the referees. The Spoelstra bump, with James' head clearly forward, is much more blatant, and without class. LeBron James showing no class has become a staple in his 'legacy'. Who knew the fall would be so quick?
