LeBron James has surrendered. He doesn’t want to be Michael Jordan. He wants to be Scottie Pippen.
That’s what his move to sign with the Miami Heat means for King, er, Prince James. He’s now Robin to Dwayne Wade’s Batman, Steve Williams to Wade’s Tiger Woods.
Wade has a ring already – and he was the MVP of the 2006 NBA Finals victory of his Heat. His running mate back then was Shaquille O’Neal, who arrived in South Beach calling Wade “Flash” and left Doc Severinsen.
