it's hard for one of the best 5 players in the NBA to be self-aggrandizing, but somehow LBJ did it

7/8/2010 9:41:20 PM

Fuck off, Lebron.

A championship for a city with great fans like Cleveland versus a championship for the worst four sports city in America is totally different.

How can anyone spew this nonsense?

he isn't choosing his words now like he was before. i think with the camera angle the way it was during the jim gray interview that lebron had an earpiece.

^^^^im with you.. all my friends are calling me idiots, but even with those 3, you have to have some sort of bench.. they will have nothing but a bunch of guys making league minimum... you can't win with NO bench, I dont care what 3 you got.

"truthfully though, the cavs management is more to blame with the terrible terrible moves that they have made over the last few years.. there was no sales pitch at all for him to come back with that current team."

how do you know there was no sales pitch?

because they didnt go out and sign anyone so far this offseason? thats probably because they wanted to know whether or not he would come back. No point in signing another complementary player for Lebron if he's planning on jumping ship.

I guarantee the Cavs didnt just sit on their ass with their fingers crossed hoping he would come back. the Cavs have a pretty good front office, Lebron had them in handcuffs until he made his decision, but I'm sure they presented numerous options

It's obvious Lebron saw ESPN 30 for 30's "The U" and enjoyed it just as much as I did.

7/8/2010 9:43:22 PM

Really, go Heat and Lakers?

Do you root for the Yankees and the Cowboys too?

7/8/2010 9:43:23 PM

^^^^im not talking about this year.. talking more about the fact that they did nothing to make that team better over the last few years and were overpaying a lot of mediocre players

[Edited on July 8, 2010 at 9:43 PM. Reason : ]

7/8/2010 9:43:31 PM

well I have the same opinions as I did in the beginning of this process, he could not win a title with that cleveland team and that was clear, his thought process is basically: ok I need to start winning titles right now if I'm going to compete with jordan and kobe, they had other stars on their teams and I didn't, that's basically it

7/8/2010 9:44:07 PM

punk move

lebron decides he cant win as a #1 so he goes to play #2 to Wade?

7/8/2010 9:44:32 PM

Jeter and Arod

Arods better, but more people like Jeter

Same deal here

7/8/2010 9:45:14 PM

Cleveland goes from being LeBron's city to the MISTAKE BY THE LAKE.

7/8/2010 9:45:20 PM

^^^
my thought exactly. LeBron has no killer instinct and he knows it so he wants Wade to take the pressure off of him.

Nah I hate Dallas and have no feelings either way for the Yankees. I just love the fan bases of LA and Miami. They deserve champions.

Jordan didnt have stars on his team either (minus Scottie Pippen), Lebron's teams the last couple of years have been much better than the teams Jordan was winning titles with. Jordan made his teammates better

You can't just say minus Scottie Pippin, he is one of the all-time greats. No different than when Shaq played with Kobe.

pippen is about 100x better than anyone bron has ever played with and jackson is about 1000x better coach then brown

Lebron is dead to me, but that is just blatantly false. You can't just "minus" a Top 50 player in the history of the Association.

You give me guys like Kucoc or Rodman over any Ben Wallace, post 33-year old Shaq or Mo Williams any day of the week.

the fact that he said, "Dwayne Wade is the one making the sacrifice" sounds like a soundbyte that will come back to bite him right in his back-stabbing ass.

Man oh man, I hope this team implodes. LeBron James isn't the competitor Jordan is, and he never will be.

LeBron James is to Cleveland as Lane Kiffin is to Knoxville.

I could only imagine how things are in Cleveland tonight after being on UT campus the night Lane left.
