: That's the thing about being worth A HUN'NED MILLI. Even when you fall . . . it doesn't hurt too bad . . . cause you land on a PILE OF MONEY!!!
Shout out to the MTOer in The Bahamas who took the FLICK!!!
@GypsiiJane ... straight truth!!!! That's why I'm no LeBron hater and those that are .. to me .. are outrageously bitter & naive. What did they expect dude to do? He was gettin NOTHING and expected to do EVERYTHING. I mean, Shaq? Yeah, he was a huge help in Boston too :/ I honestly did not care whether he did or didn't get a ring but I'm sure not celebrating because he didn't. Smdh.
As the most hated on player in the NBA it probably feels good that the pressure is off all this hating lebron just probably folded under all the pressure if they hate then let em hate and lebron watched the money pile up [EXPLETIVE] with all the money he got he could buy the cavs or the mavs people better be careful
People got caught up in the game; I got caught up in the issue behind the game. It is said that the playing field is the plantation and that the players are the slaves. Well, Lebron was the slave that "bucked" his so-called massa; he for one minute decided to stop bending over like a boy so that he could stand up like a man to tell Mr. Charlie--face to face-- that he was leaving his plantation.
Call him what you want, but for one hour, the entire world heard and saw him being a man. As a black woman, that meant the world to me--a black man being a man.
LEBRON ISN'T GOOD AND HE SHOULDN'T BE HAPPY... HE LOST A CHAMPIONSHIP AND HAD CHRIS BOSH CRYING LIKE A PRETTY HOE... HE WAS THE MAIN REASON WHY THEY LOST... IF D WADE AND SHAQ CAN WIN HOW THE HELL CAN'T LEBRON, BOSH, WADE AND HOUSE...IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE AN ALL STAR TEAM, WHICH MEANS HE ISN'T GOOD... HE'S A HARLEM GLOBETROTTER! ALL THE WAY!HE DOESN'T DESERVE THE MONEY HE HAS! WISH HE AWAS AS GOOD AS I THOUGHT HE WAS...
AND WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE CALLED A HATER WHEN YOUR JUST STATING THE FACTS ABOUT THE OTHER PERSON NOT DOING THEIR JOB!!! IF A GROCER FORGETS TO DOUBLE BAG YOUR FOOD ITS A PROBLEM, IF A DOCTOR MISDIAGNOSIS A SYMPTOM ITS A PROBLEM...IF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS TO MESS ANYTHING UP THESE WOULD ALL BE PROBLEMS THAT NEED TO BE FIXED! SO WHY CAN'T LEBRON HAVE PEOPLE JUGDE HIS WORK. BASKETBALL IS HIS JOB! FOR THE PEOPLE OF MIAMI! SO IF HIS FANS ARE MAD HE SHOULD JUST SAY THE MAVS WERE A BETTER TEAM & I'LL DO BETER NEXT YEAR..DAMN! HE'S SO PROUD HE HAS DADDY ISSUES!
LeBron should enjoy himself with his family and friends and take some time away from basketball. I don't like how so many people rode him. I was happy for the Mavs. It's a lot of veterans on the team that play good like Shawn Marion, Tyson Chandler and Jason Kidd. Jason Terry is the best 6th man in the game now. Dirk Nowitzki one of the best players ever and he deserved to win one too. LeBron is only 26 he'll get his ring.
@Ebonics I have said it before and I will say it again: If you want to speak to me, don't accost me dressed in a costume. There is a book on the market that addresses this ideology (players liken to slaves--ask Adrian Peterson). If you think back on the Lebron situation involving the Cleveland owner, many people stated that the owner behaved as if he owned Lebron like chattel. Now if I have to go further to explain this phenomenon to you, then I now know that you are too smart to recognize or realize that you are ignorant--now move on so that can not only ramble,but so that I can also rant.
I'm not concerned with his vacation. I'm a "regular person" why should I care. His momma was a regular person at one point he should remember that. He could have been too with one knee injury. And I'm tired of the whole people hate him cause he's black thing. Everyone loved and idolized Jordan so cut the Bull. Pun intended.
Does anyone think a ball player would ever throw a game nowadays? Isn't it kind of odd how he always messes up the fourth quarter and is just fine after his loss and chooses to mention not the game but the money? Call me a hater if you will but that's been on my mind a lot. I know ima start ish but oh well.
listen/read up i like lebron but he lost hella cool points with me cause that stunt i like miami cause of d-wade englewood south side chicago yall then they added another chicagoan in juwuan howard& before them it was tim hardaway symonne i see your point but realize it"s hella black folks pizzed at lebron to but alot of whites think/thought he a plantation nikka but he basically dissed his home state with that hr. special keeping mofos waiting i got friends from cleveland & other ohio BLACK ones that are pizzed (chi-hop)!
jordan overrated wtf? you gotta be kidding jordan,isiah thomas,jerry west,d-wade& as much as i can"t stand kobe they all got natural born killer instinct lebron got all talent in the world but no basketball assassin type killer instinct jordan is global i was in military seen half the world so i SEEN it with my own eyes please believe IT! (chi-hop)!
Wow here's the deal, The reason why Lebron is being hated is due to the fact he didn't inform the Cavs that he was leaving. The state and city he was born and raised in found out he was leaving watching a one hour show that was 57 mins too long, He could of easily said that he was not signing with the Cavs. By doing it the way he did it lacked tack. So the fans of Cleveland felt betrayed. Now here's the part that got majority of the fans to start to dislike him. The introduced the 3 Wade,James, Bosh like they were a part of the WWE and the statements that were made. "I can see us winning 6,7,8 championships. Really?? The season didn't even start yet and y'all proclaiming to be the champs? Ok, it was on! Everyone hated them. Me personally I didn't start not liking them until they knocked my team from the playoffs. (DA BULLS) But then I started to see them fold under pressure like a cheap suit in the finals. They are still the team to beat but they got a BIG SLICE OF HUMBLE PIE. I bet you if he could go back in time he would of did the whole leaving the Cavs differently. But you live and you learn,,,, As far as the planation massa vs field n*ggas,,,, This situation is even close,,,,, Being a slave is the worst thing done to a person we as a people have not recovered from our past. LeBron was getting paid millions of dollars. That is not slavery. Did he owe it to the Cavs management to say he wasn't signing with them,,, Some can argue yes or no? Do you give your job a final two weeks notice that you are resigning? Or do you say I quit PEACE!!! I feel that the fans that supported him deserved to know. But again I am a basketball fan that likes watching basketball.
with all that money - and time -he coulda gone somewhere more remote... more sexy. (no disrespect Bahamas but you know turks & caicos, d.r., jamaica - and SO many other island-nations are prettier... ) oh, but it's 'bron: the king of unsexyness applied to new money. (hope he doesn't stop on fiance before the game is done...)
@Shut_yo_ The last thing you stated in your post should have been the first thing that you stated in your post--you are just a basketball fan. Many brothas have informed me that a lot of athletes learn about their owners trading them at the last minute on some type of media program--I guess because most of the players are black, they can be treated this way. Also, I was informed that Lebron chose to do the show to not only reveal his decision, but to give the Boys and Girls Club some shine, endorsements, and money--glad somebody besides Denzel support the clubs in the hood. (cont. below).
(Cont. from above) Furthermore, some people disliked how the three Heat players introduced themselves, but some people liked it. I guess feelings vary--depending on who you talk to.
Lastly, Ali (the g.o.a.t.--according to me) talked plenty of trash and lost a few fights--I guess some might say that he was humbled in some cases, especially in the Spinks and Norton bout, but as we know, he kept on talking and ended up becoming one of the most beloved individuals in the world.
Maybe you view him as something negative, but once again, I say that I view him as a man.
2 all,this series was a setup and i would not b suprised if they gave lebron,wade and bosh some money 2 lose this series just because dallas had alot of good but older players who never won a championship an this series might b the closest 2 ever getting 1.If uall noticed in game 6 lebron,and wade did not look hungry 2 win they looked liked they already lost and the owner 4 dallas this is the first time i seen him an he was not really looking at the game he texting on his phone,normally this dude will b jumping an cherring like he there biggest fan.miami still a young team and they gonna b champs 4 the next 2,3 or even 4 years.
@the_proverbial_hater
All you have to do is go into your box and pull out your loosecannonSag90 character like you pull out the others. I, too, miss the M.T.O. from old, for you put on good shows.
Before I leave, I want to leave you with the words below:
What you did has already been done/I know all the tricks from here(?) to Kingston/ You might win some, but you just lost one/What a bum-bum--Lauryn Hill, Lost Ones.
I'm out, so you and your make believe characters have at me.
Why should Lebron upset or depressed? He cant do anything to change the series its over people!!! The past is the past... Lebron is doing the right thing. Go on vacation, stay off the internet and away from ESPN for a few weeks then get back to becoming a better player this offseason like he has done every summer since he entered the league. Sometimes I actually believe you haters would rather see someone hang themselves than be unaffected by your hate. What does that say about u guys? Im not sure but I know I dont want to try into heaven wearing your shoes...
@webstedd
You are right about players finding out that they are cut or traded by the media. It still doesn't make it right. I don't dislike LeBron. I just didn't like the Heat beating DA BULLS. At the end of the day he looked out for himself and his family. I am not mad at that. But for his sake I wished he would of did it differently. But I digress. The Heat will be hard to beat next year.
i don't care what he did or what he lost or what team he switched to...i'm standing by this black man, i'm supporting him until the end of the tunnel. he didn't follow the white man's yellow brick road to sell out-dom like the rest of these black ballplayers, now everybody mad. shame on you black people for further aggravating and exacerbating the hatred aimed towards this man. i'd take this STRONG, SOLID BLACK MAN over kobe's puppet a.ss ANY DAY! nope he won't falter, he won't fall.
keep sipping on them mai tai's bron.

Yeah, that's great and I have NO issues with him leaving Cleveland. But he & Dwyane acted like classless, arrogant teenagers. How you gonna mock a 13 yr. vet and then blame 'the media'? How you gonna flop around the court like a lil kid, then diss the fans who PAY for your lifestyle?
SweetestGirl_Brannu I applaud you for your conviction in supporting LeBron James,,,, Then you lost me when you said that they got paid to lose the finals? I know this isn't true but if it was, You still supporting a sellout basketball player that would throw a game? You not making much sense.
