LeBron James just shut up and play

LeBron James has talent that his him on the fast-track to being the greatest basketball player of all time. His physical skills and charisma is unprecedented.

However, here is a little advice for King James: Just shut up and win something.

LeBron needs to quit all the dancing, quit all the picture taking in pre-game introductions and quit all the muscle flexing every time he dunks the basketball. For the guy that is supposed to be the next Michael Jordan, LeBron acts nothing like M.J.

All the unnecessary antics that LeBron and his teammates continue to do on a nightly basis is doing nothing but putting a big bulls-eye on the Cavaliers' chest as the playoffs begin. Cleveland is having its best season in franchise history and LeBron is hands-down the MVP. But, all of that means nothing if the Cavs don't win in the playoffs and anything short of an NBA championship will be a failure.

We never saw Jordan flexing or dancing on the court, so why does LeBron have to do it. If King James wants to truly be the next M.J., he needs to cut out all the childish antics and start winning championships. That's what people really remember, not some cute picture-taking act before the game even starts.
