NEVER SURRENDER Cleveland Cavaliers LeBiatch Design T-Shirt

NEVER SURRENDER Cleveland Cavaliers LeBiatch Design T-Shirt

Did he or did he not quit? That was the question. In the playoff series against the underdog Boston Celtics, Game 4 just may be the most infamous game in the career of Lebron James, for when he was supposed to rise to the occasion and put the Cleveland Cavaliers on his back and carry them back to a tied series. However, after struggling for three quarters, Lebron simply stopped shooting and seemed to stop fighting. Following the loss in Game 4 and the series-ending loss in Game 5, Cavs fans actually booed, not the loss, but lack of effort.

In the days leading up to the official start of free agency, Cavs fans were optimistic that their hometown hero would keep fighting for the sports pride of the area where Lebron grew up and played his entire NBA career. They could not imagine that "The Chosen One" could fail in his quest to bring the elusive NBA Championship home.



That is, until the poorly produced "The Decision" show on ESPN (and all the hilarious spoofs that would come about as a result, such as the one above!). When Lebron announced his decision to join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami, he answered an innumerable number of questions about Lebron James the basketball player, as well as, Lebron James the person.

The world would "Witness" a player who did not succeed with a team, and rather than take responsibility to fulfill his promise to area by accepting the mantle of "The Chosen One" (like the tattoo on his back says), he opted for the easy road. Rather than showing the persistence, mental fortitude, and leadership that was the character of past legendary players, he opted to give up, surrender, throw in the towel, lay down, or his own brand of quitting, QUITNESS.

For all the Cleveland Fans out there fighting and never surrendering and who deserve a role model, a player, and a team that will never surrender, this is for you!

ACHIEVE GREATNESS LeBiatch Design T-Shirt

GREATNESS... his name is synonymous with it.

He is the unquestioned Greatest of All Time, His Airness, Michael Jordan. Drafted by the Chicago Bulls third overall in the 1984 NBA Draft, and immediately put the League on notice with a first year campaign that included a selection as an NBA All-Star and culminated in the 1985 Rookie of the Year Award.

By the prime of his career, Jordan and his Chicago Bulls teams were a perennial fixture in the NBA Finals having overcome the challenge of the "Bad Boy" Detroit Pistons teams of 1989 and 1990. From 1991 to 1993, the Chicago Bulls established their dynasty by appearing in three consecutive NBA Finals, and Jordan powered the team to victory in all three.

During the summer of 1992, Michael Jordan was the star of the greatest basketball team ever assembled, the original Dream Team. Despite the marquis names of Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, Jordan was the in his prime, and he was the unchallenged best player in the league. The Dream Team dominated the 1992 Olympics winning their games by an average of 42 points, and we caught a glimpse of the boom in the global popularity of basketball that Jordan had catalyzed.

The high of winning the Olympic Gold Medal in 1992 and the NBA Championship in 1993 was followed by the tragic murder of Michael Jordan's father leading to a nearly two year hiatus from basketball, during which Jordan applied his trademark focus, determination, and perseverance to the sport of baseball. Jordan's switch to the sport of baseball was in honor of his father, for it was the sport that his father envisioned him playing. Although he met with limited success in his short professional baseball career and eventually returned to basketball, basketball fans gained some insight into the greatness of Michael Jordan.

The world saw that despite being the greatest basketball player in the world, when it came to baseball, he worked hard to become better and he stayed late to put in extra batting practice, the same way he worked on his basketball skills after being cut from his high school basketball team when he was a Junior at Laney High. It was his incredible work ethic was what made Jordan a success.

"I'm back," was the simple statement that heralded his return to basketball in 1995. Upon his return, the doubters questioned what the effects would be of his hiatus from basketball. However, Jordan quickly silenced the doubters with an epic 55 point performance at the Mecca of Basketball, Madison Square Garden, against one of the Chicago Bulls most hated rivals. Jordan was certainly back.

Jordan lead the Chicago Bulls back to the NBA Finals in 1996, and again, he fueled his team to the NBA Championship. The Chicago Bulls dynasty was back on top, and following 1997 and 1998 campaigns that ended in two more Bulls Championships, Michael Jordan retired in his prime, from the game he loved, promoted, and dominated.

Michael Jordan not only dominated the sport of basketball, but the effects of his life and presence reverberate beyond the sport. He is still a hero to millions, and held up as a role model and example of success. And that is why his greatness will never be matched in the history of basketball.

HANG BANNERS Boston Celtics LeBiatch Design T-Shirt

The long-awaited Banner 17 was raised at the home of the Boston Celtics only after a championship drought of 22 years and two blockbuster trades in the summer of 2007.

The Celtics first acquired Ray Allen and a draft pick from Seattle for Wally Szerbiak, Delonte West, and Boston's 5th Overall pick in the NBA Draft. Then on July 31, 2007, the Celtics acquired former MVP and perennial All-Star Kevin Garnett for Ryan Gomes, Gerald Green, Al Jefferson, Theo Ratliff, Sebastian Telfair, a 2009 first round draft pick (top three protected) and a return of Minnesota's conditional first round draft pick. Although the trades gutted the roster, Boston was able to assemble a "Big Three" in Garnett, Allen, and All-Star Paul Pierce.

The Boston Celtics would finish the 2007-08 season with the best record in the NBA, 66-16, and after a challenging first round series with the Atlanta Hawks, they advanced to the Eastern Conference crown and faced the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2008 NBA Finals.

Factoring in the Lakers strong playoff run to the Finals and the Celtics problems of even reaching the Finals with two 7-game series, the Lakers were favored to beat a seemingly tired Boston team, even with Boston holding homecourt advantage. The first games of the series started with the Celtics once again dominating at home. Game 1 saw Paul Pierce suffer a knee injury early in the game only to come back and make 70 percent of his attempted field goals, resulting in a 98–88 Celtics win. In Game 2, Boston nearly lost a 24-point lead only to win 108–102. The Lakers returned to Staples Center and won Game 3, 87–81. When Los Angeles took a 24-point lead in the second quarter of Game 4 the Celtics appeared to be losing control of the series. Led by a bench that outscored the Lakers bench by 20 points, the Celtics took over Game 4 with a victory, the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history.

Although the Los Angeles Lakers won Game 5, 103–98, the series went back to Boston for Game 6, and the Celtics finished off Los Angeles with a 131–92 victory, claiming the most lopsided win in a NBA Finals game since the Chicago Bulls defeated the Utah Jazz by 42 points in the 1998 NBA Finals, and the all-time largest margin of victory in a deciding game. Paul Pierce was named NBA Finals MVP.

The Celtics had won their record 17th NBA championship, a championship 22 years in the making. Banner 17 would be the first new NBA Championship banner to be raised to the rafters in the new TD Banknorth Garden.
