It was more than most 18-year-olds could handle: the nationally televised high school games, the $90 million sneaker deal, the expectations of being as good as (no, better than!) Michael Jordan. But the NBA's No. 1 pick has not only a world-class talent level, but a maturity that exceeds many of his pro hoops contemporaries. Despite a .414 shooting percentage and a good-but-not-godlike 18.1 scoring average for the suddenly must-see Cavaliers, we are as impressed by what we don't see (selfishness, unsportsmanlike conduct) as by what we do (an understanding of team, respect for the game).
Epic times call for epic art, and nothing moved us more than The Return of the King. Other things we loved: Louis Vuitton, William Boyd and BBC's The Office And to the Atlanta group OutKast, we say "Stank you very much!"
