LeBron James Discussion Thread

[RipCity32]

I wouldnt <Censored> on my hometown on national tv. Personally if I was lebron...im not but if i was him it'd be between cleveland and chicago.Loyalty would probably win out for me. Id sign a 2 year deal with a player option for a third. If we didnt win then...then i'd be out.

You'd be criticizing him just as hard in Chicago. You just said he would go there to play with 2 All-Stars, which is EXACTLY what he is doing in Miami. So you are really are contradicting yourself with that statement.

And so it's ok to split after 9 years, but not 7? lol. That really makes no sense.

 

[$tunna]

So do thousands of other people lol.
Nothing wrong with being cocky though.

Idk about that. All the players I like that are called "cocky" are hated by some people.

No I wouldnt..because in Chicago he'd be the man. You can ask sheldon before he made the decision I'd say Id be cool with any place but miami because he'd be selling hisself short there.

He owed them another go after he QUIT...not lose passion. He <Censored>ing quit on them in the playoffs. 2 all stars yeah..but your forgetting chicago has a damn near all star type c and 17/7 wing.

Every NBA player has critics.

Obviously he doesn't care about selling himself short, only winning championships. To put aside the chance to be the next Mike, just to win rings now, shows how much he wants to win.

OK, cause you are LeBron and no exactly what went through his head during the playoffs lol. I forgot bout that.
And basically you are saying he'd go to a better team than the Heat, but he wouldn't sell himself short there. Where they have 3 potential all-stars and Deng.

IF this decision was based on winning championships the clear choice was chicago. The analysts said it themselves. He's selling himself short by running to another guy's team. In chicago it's his team. Its the last play of the game and the ball is going to lebron. In miami it's wade ball in crunch time.


So now are we gonna say lebron didnt quit. You tried to make it all nice he lost passion. Plain and simple to the obvious fan of the game. He quit on that team. Those last couple of games of that series were embarrasing. Cover it up all you want to with nice terms. He didnt give his all those last few games and it was noticed by fans/ journalists alike.

He has just as good of a chance to win a title in Miami than he does in Chicago. But I'm not getting into this debate yet again cause like I've said it's repetitive. LeBron will get a ring in Miami, end of story. He nor I will care who's "team" it is.

Never said losing passion was nice.
But you could argue he didn't even "quit" at all.
Last 3 games:
22 9 and 8
15 5 and 6 (clearly an off night)
27 19 and 10

Besides the middle games, he played pretty damn well. You make it sound like he stopped shooting, rebounding, and passing and did nothing all game. He did what he could out there. Quitting on your team is not a 27, 19, and 10 game in the last game of that series. NONE of his teammates showed up in that series. Some played well, but none gave a consistent effort.

First game he went 7/18 from the field with 7 turnovers and 0/5 from the three.

Second game was complete <Censored>ing ass. 3/14 from the field and 0/4 from three.

Third game he went after the boards Ill give him that. Now onto his 9 crucial turnovers and 8/21 field goal shooting. And then ignoring the coach when the coach wanted him to foul.

 

[RipCity32]

Turnovers and not shooting well doesn't mean he gave up lol.
Both are part of the game.

 

[The Young One]

Naw but for a guy who shot 50 percent for the season to shoot that bad over a three game stretch is concerning and his demeanor wasnt exactly great either. But enough is enough. You wont see it my way and I definitely wont see it your way.

 

[RipCity32]

I agree he wasn't the usual LeBron, but I don't believe he would ever flat out quit on his team.

I agree. Plus low percentages from the field are expected in the playoffs. Defense gets better.

Talking about Chicago, yes he would have won championships, but going to the heat meant more to him. He had that "family" thing he got from Cleveland in Miami. Plus being able to play with his 2 good friends Chris Bosh and D-Wade AND being able to win multiple titles made it an easier choice.

Plus Joakim Noah doesn't like how LeBron dances

 

[A.E]

That's whats up H8RZ.

(AE continues to drive the knife even deeper into elcheato's chest)

 

[NY King]

^^^ LMFAO AGREED!!

That video is genius man lol

 

[.infamous]

Cant wait till those three make a nike commercial together <Censored> is gonna be crazy.

 

[kdogg]

It's funny cause I was thinking of it like he went to the NWO too lol. I would say who is who but I don't want to start any pointless arguments with Rip or AE like the others have already done lmao.
