LeBron’s Birthday Presents…
Sports, Spotlight — By Unbiased on December 31, 2009 at 5:31 PMDespite putting up enormous numbers against a very solid Atlanta Hawks team, LeBron and Co. barely pulled out a victory on his birthday. Of course, had it not been for the presents, some likely and others unlikely, they would have fallen yet again to a team they should beat. Here are just a couple of the gifts given to a man who already has everything:
Anderson “The Flopper” Verajao:
Hit the only 3-pointer of his career, and it came at the best possible time. (Beyond a rarity)

The Referees:
In one of the most ridiculous developments, even for a LeBron game, the referees purposely ignore the shot-clock not being reset for the Hawks. Oh and get this, it happens during the closing seconds of regulation in a one-point game. (Rarity, only if he doesn’t get this kind of help from the refs)

You can check this out yourself:
The Hawks secure a rebound with 14 seconds left in the previous possession’s shot-clock and the home time-keeper decides not to reset it for the Hawks. The referees overlook this…
I don’t know about you, but this literally makes me sick…
Perhaps most impressive though, was the whip he got from Shaq:
He got him a Rolls Royce Phantom (Unlikely)

This one takes the cake.
