Yeah, coward. I am not calling him a coward as a man, I am calling him a coward within the realm/world of competition. He ran from a challenge because he does not feel that his best chance at winning a ring can be done with him at the helm. He joined another captains ship. As far as competition goes that is cowardice, especially when you are supposed to be a so called king and or chosen one. Some of you lebron fans are hilarious.

God forbid he leaves his situation for a better one.

Given his avatar and location, I'm going to guess that he just chose the wrong better situation.

I can understand the Cavs' anger (though it is a bit silly over a game), but the New York and Chicago anger has been kind of baffling.

Re: The LeBron James Saga

I don't think many NYers are really that bitter about James, or at least from what I've read around different message boards.

Chicago hate is not from James choosing Miami, I think it's from James dancing on the Bulls and that thing with Noah last year.. and the fact that people talk about LBJ and MJ in the same sentence [whether rightfully or not].

LA fans are the absolute worst though. It's really not amusing and is borderline disturbing.

I think Lakers fans have a little bit of a reason. Alot of people are crowning Miami champion before the season even starts and the Lakers are two time defending champs.

But Kobe Fans are the absolute worse.

Some of you LeBron trolls are hilarious as well.

I guess Kobe and KG were cowards when they wanted to change teams because they felt their teams were not good enough to win them a championship?

You are right, you are guessing. Kobe used his leverage to get the Lakers to build a better team around him and they did that, so he stayed. Remember the lakers were not very competitive after Shaq.

KG used his leverage to get the T-Wolves to build a better team around him, they did not, so he left. Understandable, since most would agree that KG was loyal to a fault in his time with the T-wolves.

The paper champion, lebron, used his leverage to get the Cavs to build around him, they did, the Cavs were competitive to the tune of best record in the league two years running, yet the paper champ still left, coward. Can you see the difference? Probably not, most lebron fanatics/worshippers can't.

Re: The LeBron James Saga

Thing is LA fans were just as passionate about basking in James' failures when he was still in CLE.

They hold on to any shred of evidence to prove that Kobe is

a better player, classier, more mature, better husband/father, better teammate

than LeBron.

It's the absolute pits living here with all 700 friends on Facebook being Laker fans... and having every other person in every day life talking out of their butts about things they know not much about.

They honestly get off any time LeBron does something dumb or anything negative. It's reached levels that I wouldn't have originally imagined. Men, women, young, old it doesn't matter every Kobe errr Laker fan has this automatic response/view of James.

For really no other reason than to protect Kobe.

What do you mean by better? The Cavs had the best record in the league last year and the year before (or at least the best record in the east two years in a row), how do you improve upon that? Oh, by increasing your chances to get a ring with a proven champion. Is that what you mean by better?

First off man the name calling gravitates the conversation into an immature childish pop off

..and who gives a cats butt if he wanted to play elsewhere, he is a free agent. Regardless if he had Amare or Wade, he wasnt going to win in Cleveland all by himself. Everybody knows that

By surrounding yourself with another Top 5 player and a Top 15 player and creating an atmosphere where role players come calling just to play with you three to have an even better chance to win.

Re: The LeBron James Saga

I agree he really wasn't going to win with the Cavs and that roster situation. Not to blame the management, but the cap situation was a mess. I didn't see any way for them to get LeBron a real Robin, who's fault that is, is another discussion.

I don't think he's a coward for leaving to make a super team, I just will look at him in a different light when his career is over.

LeBron has still been the best player in the world since 2008.

Stop trying to hide the fact that that lineup consisted of Mo Williams, Delonte West, Anthony Parker, Jamario Moon, Antawn Jamison for half a season, Big Z, an old Shaq, J.J. Hickson, Varejao, Daniel Gibson and Jawad Williams by using the whole "best record in the league" thing. You know why that team had the best record in the league? Because of LeBron.

Explain to me how the 07 Cavs that consisted of Eric fricking Snow, Larry Hughes, Damon Jones, Sasha Pavlovic, and some of the guys mentioned above made the Finals? Because of LeBron.

And now he suddenly had a great situation because he was CARRYING that team to the best record in the league by playing his *** off night in, night out. Please....

Jeebs, trust me, I am not bitter. I have no reason to be bitter. Except for the fact that Lebron should have never won rookie of the year, Carmelo should have won it! Anyway, my problem with lebron now is, he seems to want accolades, attention and notoriety but can't handle criticism.

I don't fault him for being Robin when the media tried to make him Batman. Aiiight, but keep it movin! Stop all the whining.
