The LeBron James Thread

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

I have no respect for Lebron, none. That is a comeplete sell out.

Jordan earned his championships, as did Kobe..the didnt go off and join a all star team. Its obvious lebron, wade and bosh talked this out. You dont score 3 all stars without talking going on. Plain sad. Leaving a town that loves you for a easy way out.


His legacy just went down the toilet. Even if he wins, he had wade and bosh. If he looses, its going to be he couldnt win with those guys.

One win in Cleveland, would have been bigger then 3 at Miami with that bunch. Plain sad.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

It's not about whether I wanted him to be the GOAT. I had thought that HE wanted to be.

He said he wanted to be one of the greats, just a few minutes ago, not THE GREAT

Doesn't matter, that definitely wasnt happening in CLE anyway and you know it

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

It is going to be a 2 team league now. TNT & ESPN will be showing the Lakers and Heat out the ***!!! Already know the Xmas day late game.

I would be VERY surprised if the NBA doesn't have a ratings magnet Christmas day of Miami/Cleveland and LA/Boston.

LeBron not exactly thanking Cleveland for a good 7 years!!!!

more like reminding them what he did for them!!!

LOL this is too funny, he doesn't care at all

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

As a note, I want this to blow up in his face for acting like he's bigger than the game.

I can't stand it.

Basically stuck up the middle finger to Cleveland.

lol so all of a sudden a free agent changing teams thinks that he is bigger than the league.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

The reason why I'm upset about the whole thing is why have all these Tri-State area kids sitting around you and announcing you're going somewhere else?

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

I disagree bro. Losing all respect = most people's feelings right now.

This is Magic Johnson in his prime saying "you know what? I can't be bothered going through the Celtics..........I'm going to join Larry Bird".

Rivalries have made the NBA.

LeBron just chose to avoid doing it the hard way. Personally, I can't respect that.

Sorry this is nothing like that. LOL

If Karma exists he blows his knees out on his first game back in Cleveland. And the heat have to suit up Jamal Magloire for the remainder of the season.

Better have riot police. ESPECIALLY if it's in CLE.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

Never believed he was going to the Heat this whole time.

Didn't think he would really want to play with Wade, and I thought if Lebron left Cleveland it would be for a big sports city.

I always thought that Lebron would either be loyal, or go for the big spotlight, with the biggest chance for glory. He basically took all the pressure off of him instead.

Not that good for the nba imo, but we'll see.

I'm in the same boat.

Nobody ever put LBJ's name next to MJ again.

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread

Y'know for a guy who supposedly admires Michael Jordan this shows Lebron has no sense of history. MJ took something like 6 years before he got a championship. He never left Chicago in his early years because it would be easy to. The man stuck it out, eventually defeated the Pistons with the help of Scottie Pippen and his supporting cast and then ruled the league with an iron fist.

If Lebron falters and gives up in the face of adversity (this year's playoffs is a prime example) then he's not a TRUE competitor. If he's as great as he makes himself out to be then he'd try his damndest to win a championship in Cleveland. The man would be a god among men if he were to do that. Now? He looks like a sell out and a bit of a fraud.

Would it have really matter where he announced it?
