The sole relevant discussion in the NBA today revolves around Miamias streak: when it will end, will it ever end, what does it mean, does it mean anything, and the like. In the great scheme of championships, this is only decoration a' in the end, this isnat the 1972 Miami Dolphins 17-0 year, when efficiency and championship significance converged historically. This can be a Miami Heat group struggling legacy on numerous fronts and machines. Because itas no longer sufficient to win championships, at least not when three of the leagueas most readily useful synergy for that purpose. But whatas therefore exciting about any of it streak isnat the wins themselves, but instead their quieting degree. No oneas referring to Miamias faults or threats for their throne or other items of detraction. Thereas one group and thereas everyone. Thereas one player, LeBron James, and everyone else. Anything have been driven right into expectation and thereas hardly by reality left to state. Oh yeah: LeBron had 24 points, 11 helps and 9 rebounds last night in a 108-94 win without Dwyane Wade on the second night of a road back-to-back. Depending on usual. After winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational yesterday by two strokes, Padraig Harrington vaulted to No. 1 on the planet for the very first time since October 2010. Chalk it around newfound relationship security or or whatsoever else, but things just seem right with Tiger on top of the golf world. And this news, at its core, is just a demonstration of athletes as people, or actually athletes just as athletes. Tiger is a example in perception as truth, that heas an introverted and pompous penis who is actually really good at tennis. And we could and do benefit from the latter without engaging the former, which is a comfort in that story doesnat totally eat the nuts and bolts of the whatas going on: thereas an individual doing things that most of us canat do, and watching something done in excellence is pretty cool. So Padraig Harrington atop the entire world leaderboard is neither record or metaphor; itas just sense that is made by a thing, sports-wise. Photograph via
