LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Everyone's gotta be "the man" these days. This idiot was too self absorbed to be grateful to be on the same team as a generational talent like Bron. He stays, who knows where we're at now. We sure as shit aren't sitting on 9 wins halfway through the year. Get fucked you flat earth bitch . . .
 
What if this is a big ass plot twist of him joining the Laker in free agency? That would be the biggest slap in the face to Cleveland and the fanbase. Remember Love was conveniently having dinner with LeBron during this conversation. I know it's far fetched but the thought of it makes me sick.
 
Lakers have found a nice young C in Zubac. He's huge, pretty light on his feet for a big, soft hands, good touch
 
Lakers players make so many dumb mistakes: they've got a lot of talent but man they do some stupid shit out there to shoot themselves in the foot
 
Durant ruined our chances, but Kyrie killed the team.

I hope I don't sound cocky, but I was really hoping when this was all coming together? We'd still be chasing O'Briens right now, with Kyrie taking the lead and LeBron beginning to close out his career.

again...grateful for 2016...grateful for even 1...but man.
 
Kyrie is so full of shit. He is only apologizing now beciase the roles are reversed and he so desperately wants his celtics players to buy into what he is saying as their leader. This is why he wanted out; to become a leader of a franchise and to further cement his legacy. But he has guys on the team that are acting like he did with Cleveland, and is standing in the way of him accomplishing his goals.

A guy like him, anything he says, I just take with a grain of salt. There are always ulterior motives in anything he says/does. Nothing is ever genuine.

I'm confused. What you're saying is exactly what Kyrie said in different words.

It's not some inside conspiracy theory, it's exactly what the dude just told the media yesterday, and in the same breath, said that LeBron is one of the few people capable of pulling off what he's trying to pull off, so he called him.

Kyrie has been taught a lesson that tons of us on this board said he would have to learn once he got traded, and now that he's learning it, all of a sudden it's not genuine.

I'm 26. I totally relate to learning shit like this, albeit at different times and in different ways. I'm pissed that he killed the Cavs as well, but I'm not about to say he's only pretending right now. I don't think he called LBJ as a publicity stunt; I think that's a very mature and difficult thing to do.

Honest question to people bashing him: have you ever left a job because you hated the work environment for whatever reason, realized that you were also in the wrong, and then called those people to apologize for your side of things?
 
Usually I'm very leveled head and I would never wish harm to an athlete. It's a game by the way but man fuck this dude. I wish someone would take out both his knees Tanya Harding style and he loses all his money and ends up sucking dick in an alley in Euclid. Fuck off with his phony fake apology. His only doing it now because the younger guys on his team aren't hearing his BS and are calling it out. Perfect example is Jalen Brown saying "It's Not Young Guys Or Old Guys, It's Everybody's Fault"."“We’ve just got to have each other’s backs at the end of the day,” Brown said. “We can’t make comments, we can’t point fingers." This was a direct shot at Kyrie and his shitty leadership. Because of his childish pettiness and OVERINFLATED ego he ruined this team. We still don't get way he wanted out, was it because LBJ called him a kid? Like WTF. And the mess up part all these talking heads are saying his maturing. He should be apologizing to everyone on the 2017 team because he refused to talk to them during the damn playoffs because his a big fucken baby. And don't get me started on the flat earth bullshit. There's already enough fake Russian news on Facebook and bunch of fucken idiots believing/liking that shit.

Almost agreed, almost. (the purposely hurting him goes against my ethics, but I get it)

I have no hate for Lebron. Part of that is he is from my hometown, but a huge part is he left via free agency, stayed 7 years the first time, came back, won a championship then left after things fell apart.

I respect a players ability to use free agency to play where they want.

But I am probably one of the biggest haters of forcing your way out. You are a man. You signed a contract. Respect that fucking contract or you are not a man in my opinion. Period.

So Kyrie is not an man in my opinion, he is a bitch that couldn't wait till he was 27 to control his destiny. Couldn't respect his 25 million a year contract he signed and bitched and whined like my kids when they were fucking 5.

So yeah, fuck Kyrie,.

My problem with kyrie is he didn't just leave a job, he forced his way out. I have always lived up to my contractual obligations in the work place even when I didn't agree with my boss or hated my job.

Once I was free to leave, then I left. Thus your point works for Lebron, but doesn't work for Kyrie. He wasn't man enough to live up to his contractual obligations.

Yeah I agree. It's also very apples to oranges in that sense because most of us have 2 week clauses that athletes don't have (I don't know what you do - I'm just speaking in general).

My point was more about realizing you were a shit head and manning up to call someone and apologize after realizing it. I don't think his call to LeBron was ingenuine at all, and as an isolated act, a very mature thing to do.

I'm not saying he is wholly mature, but I do think that this is a good thing for him to have realized and acted on, and if he's serious about leading this Boston squad, it's a call I would have made in his shoes too.
