Chuck D on LeBron James

by Ted Berg on June 22nd, 2010 at 5:27 pm

Stay in Cleveland… If he ever comes to the black hole of New York, he’ll never win…

It ain’t an easy thing, winning a championship, so … don’t think it’s going to come any easier. What, he’s 25? Come on, now! Who says he has to win a championship?

Whatever happened to try harder, the old Avis slogan? Try harder!

I think LeBron James is the best thing to ever happen to basketball. Not because of his game. Because of his attitude. We need more dudes in rap who really care about the history.

I love LeBron James’ attitude. I love his sense of history. And I love what he means to Ohio and Cleveland. My thing is, just try harder.

- Chuck D, as told to the Cleveland Plain-Dealer.

Chuck D’s right, you know. Chuck D is almost always right. Winning a championship is hard and will be hard no matter where LeBron James goes. But, you know, I don’t entirely see why that means he shouldn’t come to New York and try harder here.

Hat tip to Chuck D, just because.
