LeBron James and the Cavaliers are causing after a win against the Boston Celtics, but that doesn’t mean the superstar forward needs to be in a good mood.
Despite being up by three points on the Toronto Raptors at the end of the first quarter on Wednesday night, LeBron James denied Shawn Marion a handshake — for God only knows why.
Marion hasn’t been playing all that great this season but he’s not getting a ton of minutes either. Perhaps it’s his efficiency that LeBron James is upset about, but he was having none of whatever handshake Shawn Marion was trying to extend his way.
It’s not a chemistry issue — we think — that has LeBron all worked up, but something has him aggravated.
Shawn Marion is going to retire hat the end of the season anyways so it’s not like this is going to ruin his career or anything, but Marion might want to watch himself around LeBron moving forward.
We probably shouldn’t read too much into this, but let’s not forget how LeBron basically marooned Mario Chalmers in the playoffs last year and it ended up costing him all the credibility that he had.
