Nothing more would make me happy to see this player fail in the Finals. I really, really want him to lose. Is this sort of wishing "despair" on someone a sin? This is a serious question.

For anyone unsure of who LeBron James is, he is a basketball player.

I don't think God really cares who win in sports. although being from Ohio, I am with you on that one..lol so if it is a sin, I must confess also!!

If there is not hatred in our heart. I think God knows when we are saying something In jest and non-serious things such as sports and when it is truly a sinfull and evil thought. I am pulling for the heat to lose also. dude from the spurs gets body-slammed on the last play and a no-call. garbage.

First off i knew for a fact as a dedicated christian, i shouldn't pay attention to any worldly sports, and that we should only focus on heavenly things. Maybe I made little mistake because sometimes I can't resist the temptation for watching sports such as boxing, soccer especially NBA. When i wasn't a christian I was so obsessed with sports and then i became born again,and the interest on sports has temporarily gone. but here I am now,it seems that this temptation is coming back again especially we are in the NBA finals. LoL

Here in the philippines, everyone loves to watch NBA especially the finals. After watching the game 6, I coudn't bear the pain watching the Spurs lose to miami heat. I was so upset LOL... I can't take it that LEBRON JAMES won...For me,He is not worth the title because he is so arrogant, same with chris bosh and their fans but im ok with wade.....Spurs deserve the title since everyone of them are so decent and they played like a team without selfishness. I just dont want to see an arrogant team like miami heat will win.....I hope lebron james and his team are going to lose in game 7 LOL. Evil and arrogant person doesn't deserve to win....I hope God will forgive me for having comments like this LOL.
