You ain't winning Dick when that happens.

Errrrrrrrrrrr, um...........


I think the only NBA player who would be interested in winning dick......


















Would be John Amaechi.

Be a true leader and be the last one off the court. I don't care if you're down 40 and there is 0.04 seconds left, you don't leave the court. If I were a coach with a set of balls i'd be pissed at LeBron for doing it and call him out. if I were a teammate that wouldn't be worried LeBron would fire me I would call him out on it. Its a bullshit move.

LOL for what? His time to lead will be in the locker room after the game and in the 2 off days before game 2....Not in the final seconds of a game already decided

The issue is not LBJ. The issue is what is around him. If he leaves look for a firesale of K Love

And here is the problem with LeBron doing what he did. It sends a message, not to these other multi million dollar athletes and players out there in the arena, but to the kids. LeBron is the face of the NBA, he's the face of basketball. Just like Jordan was in the 90s. Kids always want to look up to their idol athletes and many times they do the same type of things as their idols. Young players see what LeBron did and next thing you know that 6th grader is boohooing his team is about to lose and walks off the court. It isn't over thinking or over reacting. LeBron wants so badly to be the platform, the icon for his community, well act like it. Walking off before the game is over, regardless of the score sends a message.

I'd take him.

I thought so. Hell LeBron just might give the Clippers a real chance to have a banner hanging in the rafters in Staples Center. I wouldn't count on it if I were you.

I agree with this. take your loss like a MAN and say we'll get 'em NEXT time...

The Cavs,have pretty much been average all year save for one 20 game stretch. I an not sure why do many people think they're still the East favorites.

Because they have the best player on the planet.

I hate it when I agree with you.

 

[OregonDucks]

These sort of antics is the reason I cant root for the guy. He doesn't have any sort of warrior mentality in him. I hated Kobe Bryant, but couldn't help respect the guy because he at least at the killer instinct and the mentality of refusing to ever lose. Just like Jordan, didn't like the guy, but how could you not respect his will to win and again his mentality of refusing to lose?

LeBron? Doesn't have what Kobe and Jordan had, I don't care how many titles he ends up winning before he retires.

Ehh, Lebron not being THAT guy anymore on defense is an issue, but I'm definitely not putting it all on him though

they have KD...?

musta missed that one...

 

[rmilia1]

Sure but in pretty much every possible series they'll have the best player but only 2 of the 7 or 8 best players .

 

[bksballer89]

You guys are so dramatic lol

Something tells me if Curry or AD did the same, there wouldn't be a word said about it

I took myself waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too seriously on FN. When I joined tHoop (mainly because I was told by Hammer there would be no math) I promised myself I would work on my sense of humor.....glad I can entertain you, friend.

 

[OregonDucks]

Hopefully LeBron can tell us more about how great he is the next time he talks while getting a haircut.

 

[LogicMan]

Oladipo, damn. What was OKC thinking? Gave up their future stud? Damn

And there is the likely issue. LeBron the player is awesome. LeBron the pseudo GM - not so much.

There's somebody for everybody.

Didn't say she was attractive or anything. Or even non-inflatable.
