Ric Flair has a message for LeBron James
To be the man, you have to beat the man.
This year in the NBA, Stephen Curry is the man, and LeBron James is looking to take him down as he strives to be the man again.
As he aims to bring a championship to Cleveland and his third overall title of his career, LeBron James has received an encouraging message from a former champion.
No, it's not a former NBA Champion, but rather WWE Hall of Fame member Ric Flair -- who is now going to be disappointed after his latest tweet.
Flair has tickets to Game 4 of the series in Cleveland, and wanted to see the king hoist the trophy high and proud in the air.
. @KingJames, win these first three games so when I come to Cleveland for game 4 it's the knock out punch. Make it happen! WOOOOO!

It's no secret who Flair is rooting for in the NBA Finals -- and it's also no secret Cleveland needs to get its act together and even the series.
Either way, with how good the Warriors are and with the Cavaliers facing their first real test of the playoffs, it's unlikely Flair is going to see anyone hoist a title after Game 4.
Game 6 or 7 might be a better bet for the former world heavyweight champion.
