NBA Finals and beyond

I am going to compose a ditty.An ode to this series that went seven games, before Lakers delivered the knock out punchDon’t expect a prose very witty.It bodes ill, trying to words to rhyme with names like this bunch.

Seriously, what can I say that rhymes with Bryant’s name?That he has ants in his pants and he wishes they’d make themselves scant?And those rhymes exclude the Bry part of his nameI did warn you this rant would be somewhat lame.

(Ironically, Bryant rhymes with rhyme)

It’s a load on my heart, that none of these names include James.Maybe if he spent less time on his antics which prelude games…Ok folks, jokes apart, he is better off losing at this point.He needs to feel what it’s like to disappoint.

I’ll explain this with an exampleWith the 5th pick in the 1995 draft TWolves drafted KG.Where he carried on his back guys like Sam MitchellWhile LeBron went around chillin with JayZ

This ceaseless struggle fuelled Garnett’s fireSaddled with useless rubble, has quelled many a heart’s desire.But in his case, there fumed a desire, a drive to drive out of this mireJust win the race, to the tune of a lyre, ere he arrives at his pyre.

These are some of the tattoos ingrained on James’ torsoGifted child, Chosen one and witnessCollectively these tats shout big head without refrain, even more sothen a tatted ‘EGO’ would, although that would avoid pretense

Lebron James Tattoo : The Chosen 1

Way I see it, he’s had popular acclaim from the get go.Unlike other players whose game was labeled as so-so.Don’t get it twisted, he’s tight in his own right.That also implies his lack of a ring is his oversight.

The mighty hammer from AkronHas become a perpetual thornIn my side, besides residing thereWhere he uses transits without paying fare

This free agency is going to be crazy.The mind boggles; I can’t even begin to address this.Maybe I fancy I’m just too lazy.Go google it, if you find it interesting.

Well, the Lakers won their second ring in a rowFor many a fan this is a new high in lowA trade too lopsided to swallowSent away Kwame for Pau GasolThis led to these rings, and more to follow.

I would have the Celtics win thisInstead we are all witnessAs LeBron would have saidOn those ads, for which he’s obscenely paid.

This was probably the last shot of the leprechaunsI don’t disparage but they aren’t getting any youngerWhile Wallace eats his weight in poundsTheir team’s age on an average is higher than San Antonio Spurs

This in spite of the young duo of Shrek and donkeyAnd Rondo, who are green in more ways than oneFact that big 3 are aging is really not low keyThey won’t end their lays with and one

Celtics did win one in 08Since then they have playedwell, happily ever afterwithout adding another banner to the rafter

It was a memorable run I’ll sayAlthough it ended in dismayThey did knock off the two best teams in the league, to wit Cavs and Orlando MagicMajor props to them from my fellow collegues, for their grit in a loss so tragic.
