LeBron among Time's chosen ones
http://www.cleveland.com/cavs/plaind...1951293350.xml
Signing a $90 million deal with Nike, winning last season's Rookie of the Year Award and becoming the youngest player to achieve a triple double (double figures in points, rebounds and assists in one game) are just some of the accomplishments of Cavaliers forward LeBron James. He has added another.
James, 20, made Time magazine's annual list of "100 Most Influential People of the World." The magazine considers the individuals on the list as people whose power, talent or moral example is transforming the world.
The 100 were profiled in five categories: "Heroes and Icons," James' category; "Leaders and Revolutionaries;" "Artists and Entertainers;" "Scientists and Thinkers;" and "Builders and Titans."
James is among a group that includes former President Clinton, Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, actor/director Clint Eastwood, The Dalai Lama and scientist Brian A****er. James, Formula One driver Michael Schumacher, World Anti-Doping Agency leader Richard Pound, around-the-world sailor Ellen MacArthur and Chelsea soccer team owner Roman Abramovich are the only sports figures recognized.
