The
columnists are writing two stories today.
One
they’ll probably run, and what they really want to say.
One
gives begrudging respect to LeBron and the Heat.
Over
seven tough games they had too much talent to defeat.
But
if the Spurs win their joy will abound
As
they revel in throwing creaking platitudes around,
How
teamwork, fundamentals, honesty and coaching
Beat
the squad of selfish megastars built from round-the-league poaching.
Basketball
turns into a morality tale.
How
the modest will triumph and the arrogant fail.
Are
the teams really different at the end of the day?
They’re
all millionaires. And they all come to play.
Kipling’s
two impostors were once treated the same.
Humans
shouldn’t be judged on who wins one game.
