July 7, 201016 yr Author Not being dramatic at all, I'm just saying I really don't care enough to argue it or to try and stick up for Lebron Got better things to do today, I tried, but most will always find ways not to like him. The suck and antichrist comments were made to be sarcastic of course, and bugatti I have agreed with a lot of what you have said. Of course you have. I am always right.
July 7, 201016 yr So....Athletes play different sports all the time. Look at Romo and the PGA. Athletes like to play sports. One event in the off-season is hardly retiring and spending an entire season in the minor's. Bottom line, he used his name and status to fill the Baron's stadium on a nightly basis. The exact things you guys don't think he'd do. I'm not certain Jordan would use all the media outlets in the same capacity but he'd be left behind if he didn't.
July 7, 201016 yr I'm not certain Jordan would use all the media outlets in the same capacity but he'd be left behind if he didn't. You just contradicted yourself then.
July 7, 201016 yr You just contradicted yourself then. No I didn't. I said he would use them. Then I said he may not use them exactly the same but in some capacity. He's STILL using them, like I stated. My reasoning, LBJ and others like OchoCinco Tweet themselves. I could see Jordan having someone Tweet for him. Or an entire organization dedicated to Tweeting for him. Still using it, just a bit differently.
July 7, 201016 yr Can't imagine LeBron going to NJ all by his lonesome. If he were to go there, I'd imagine they'd also try to bring either Boozer or Lee in. I could very easily see him going to the Knicks to team with Amare. Has Mike Miller signed yet? I could see him being a great fit on a Knicks team with LeBron, Amare, and Gallardo (sp?).
July 7, 201016 yr He treats his fans the best of about any superstar of his status I can remember. When do you ever see him being a straight up stiff or giving the fans a cold shoulder? I know when you compare him to Mike and Kobe he looks like a saint. Both of them always seem so obnoxious, Lebron at least tries to have a good personality. I had the opportunity to meet LeBron twice, and he does seem like a legitimately good guy. He doesn't do it anymore but his first few years in the league he would sign autographs for the fans, and I never saw any kid get turned down that was close enough to him. He's a decently friendly guy. He's no Chad OchoCinco, but he doesn't seem that bad at all. Cool story though, the first time I saw LeBron in the NBA his rookie year we were down in the section of the Q they let fans come down to before games to take pictures and get autographs. I was the first person he came over to and he took my ticket out of my hand. I was 15 at the time and super-immature so I told him to wait so I could take my jersey off and get it signed. I gave it to him and he put it on his arm and started signing autographs for people. He then started to leave for the lockerroom and I yelled at him that he still had my jersey. He nodded and tossed it back to me......with no autograph :lol:. Just wondering...but why would that end it? 1. I hate Pat Riley, he is a snake. 2. I hate DWade. He's a ball hog and he wants everyone to come to him. 3. If he's going to leave it might as well be for Chicago. I go still go there and watch him a few times a year :lol:. I don't know how Lebron acts personally and off the court but when it comes to basketball related stuff he is quite immature. * Requests that Nike reps take tape of Jordan Crawford dunking on him. * Doesn't shake hands after playoffs loss to Magic * Decides to hold a special 1 hour long nationally televised event to say what team he is signing with. * Dances on sidelines during basketball games Dancing on the court is the coolest thing LeBron does. Basketball is a game and he's having fun. I don't see what the problem is with it. Do you say the same thing when others do things to show off a little bit? My only beef with it is that I believe LeBron is too good to be bring himself to that level. I have no doubt he is having fun, but Superstars I put on a different level. No need to taunt, dance, or flex all the time. Did you like Muhammad Ali?

July 7, 201016 yr Hold on, Wade is terrible for staying in Miami and wanting good players to come to him, but LeBron isn't by staying in Cleveland (if he chooses to do so)? How is Wade a ball hog and Lebron not?
July 7, 201016 yr Hold on, Wade is terrible for staying in Miami and wanting good players to come to him, but LeBron isn't by staying in Cleveland (if he chooses to do so)? How is Wade a ball hog and Lebron not? 1. He has tried to recruit LeBron to play with him in Miami. Realistically if they team up it should be in a neutral setting for both of their legacies IMO. 2. I feel Wade is a ballhog. I was asked why I didn't want LeBron to go there. That is all the explanation I need to give.

Ok, I'll ask you then, why do you feel Wade is a ball hog?
July 7, 201016 yr LeBron has tried to recruit Bosh to Cleveland, why is that different? Ok, I'll ask you then, why do you feel Wade is a ball hog? Can we admit that Bosh is not in the same class of basketball player or marketability as LeBron and DWade? That's how it's different. I just don't think he's capable of being a #2 guy. He puts up good assist numbers but he has a higher usage the ball more than any other player in the league statistically. I don't just think it's with the Heat either. He shoots alot on the Olympic team and (though its not a real game) all-star games. And I hate DWade.
July 7, 201016 yr A lot of ESPN personalities are having fun with this. Tweeting what time they will announce what there having for dinner.

I feel Wade is a ballhog. I was asked why I didn't want LeBron to go there. That is all the explanation I need to give. Why would it help D Wade's legacy to team up with LeBron in a neutral setting? Why wouldn't he try and recruit LeBron. He is happy there and Miami (Riley) has shown they know how to win championships. Plus, who in their right mind wants to live in Cleveland over Miami? Or Chicago for that matter. So basically, you are just upset that LeBron won't be the center of attention if he goes there? I'm starting to see why you like 'Bron so much.

But, others do. If he wins a title in Miami people are going to keep hating on him and detracting from him. I could care less about that. If I had my way he'd stay with the Cavs even though they'll most likely never put another good player beside him. As for DWade, like I said he's one of my least favorite players in the NBA.
