No, LeBron James was not crying at the end of Game 5 despite what all the haters would like to believe. The man was just emotionally and physically spent, and probably devastated that his team was losing the NBA title to the Spurs a year after winning it. You could see it in these moments shown on TV by ABC/ESPN.
LeBron played well in Game 5 and was the only Heat player who showed up during the Finals. He had 30 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks while playing 41 minutes in the elimination game. And Udonis Haslem made his greatest contribution during the Finals by consoling James in that moment.
Sorry to say it, but the 34-year-old forward was pretty much useless during the series and at many times during the postseason.
This song goes out to LeBron from U-Don. Here’s to you baby:
