The old saying is "it only hurts when I laugh"...for LeBron James, hopefully his injured toe survived a night of laughter last night at the Toast to the King benefit...
The event was kicked off by teammate, Damon Jones, who did not try his "A" material on LeBron, because as he pointed out, his comedic rate card is not in the neighborhood of "Cedric the Entertainer's"....
LeBron usually faces five defenders looking at him when he gets ready to attack...last night, he had 5 comics ready to go at him...Cedric, himself...Alex Thomas...Mo' Nique, Ralphie May and Paul Rodriguez...but lo and behold, the all-star laugh team went easy on LB...perhaps because of that infamous sore big toe...
King James had felt he had been well prepared for the event, based on all the heat he usually gets in the locker room from the other 14 Wine and Gold comedians, which included David Wesley and Donyell Marshall last night...
It was an outstanding night full of laughs, with a ball kid slot auctioned off along with a LeBron signed ball and shoes...proceeds from the event went to aid the Boys Hope Girls Hope of Cleveland...
You'll be able to see some of the Toast to the King on a a forthcoming episode of "Access Cavaliers" on FSN Ohio...
