LeBron DIME Magazine Article

[Glen Infante]

LeBron James is featured in the New York based magazine "Dime Magazine". I'm sure many of you heard of it. They are very PRO-LeBron2NYC, which is understandable since they are from NY. But shouldn't an NBA magazine be a little bit more neutral to every team in the NBA? It just seems very "Anti-Cavalier" to me.

They even have a shirt created with Undercrown ( A well known urban clothing company) That has created shirts that display "LeBron or Bust". I refuse to post the link to the shirt, because of course we do not support that kind of nonsense here! lol.

Anyhow, the article from DIME is interesting. I have uploaded it here for all of you to check out. Enjoy!

Terrible cover picture. That's not LeBron at all.

I agree. He reminds me more of Deshawn Stevenson than LeBron James in that picture.

 

[theSwayze]

Terrible cover picture. That's not LeBron at all.

totally agree and the ones inside aren't much better. It feels to me like Dime bought some preexisting "B" rate images for the inside (and the in game image is likely from Getty) and only got him to sit for a hot minute for the cover. I teach photography and the cover is what happens when a photographer only has 15min to shoot, no depth, just props and cliches.

Damn, I used to be a fan of Undrcrwn.

Not anymore

 

[Damien O'Connel]

that cover picture, along with that quote makes him seem like some cocky thug that thinks he's better than he really is. (maybe they want him to seem more like a knick?)

Do they still package shirts in those cereal boxes? Great gimmick they had when they started out.

The cover doesn't really give LBJ a good image.That's not him at all.They're making him seem like a thug and I don't like it.

If you think James looks like a thug then you have no concept of what a real thug is.

He doesnt look like Dick Cheney.

A black man with a grimace and cross on the chest?

 

[Chris]

All they'd have to do is give him a knit hat and he'd look ultra thug in that cover. Admit it.

Agreed. He's a "thug" in that picture.

 

[Chris]

Sure looks like one anyways. It's a dumb photo, and a worse article (yes I read the whole thing)

Here's an OG and his son for ya:

Let's not worry about threatening Black males when the real thugs are running down the street with trillions of dollars in their pockets and the deed to your house.
