Maybe they are just following him because they know he's leaving. He checked out in that Boston series in his first stint in Cleveland and there's some with the Heat that said he checked out during 2014 as well. Now it appears he's doing it again.

This concludes my Reckless Speculation post.

I wouldn't really say checked out, but rather accepted reality. I mean he is the same guy that led both teams in the playoffs in every stat the last few years...If you don't have the horses you don't have the horses.

I agree to an extent (on calling out LeBrons leadership). LeBron is getting it done in the court for the most part but not in the locker room. Conversely, IT has looked like a great locker room leader but hasn't been getting it done on the court.

Not an excuse, but I feel like LeBron is expecting roster changes and waiting until he knows what the group is. I think things change in that regard after the deadline, no matter what moves do or don't happen. The uncertainty of who might get traded will go away.

He's been in clear CYA mode for a while now.

"I don't know what's going to happen with this team."

Has IT really been a great locker room guy though?

Seems like he is trying, but actually making things worse. Sometimes you got to know your place.

And there isn’t much you can do about that. I could see either a lot of trades before the deadline or at the end of the season and that isn’t helping Lebron staying in Cleveland unless they pull some great deals. Thanks Gilbert for not paying David Griffin, you cheap SOB!

Yeah his attitude overall has been bad, surprises me a lot. He is too busy crying over the Celtics. I like the guy but seriously get over it man. Fuck

for once we actually agree. always DID say LeClown's "leadership" skills and presence were an overhype by the NBA and the sports media...

Final year of his contract has always been dramatic everywhere he's been


I've said it 100 times. Many teams don't push the defense button until April but it might be too late by then

Compared to Mark Cuban Gilbert is anything but cheap.

A lot of criticism can be laid on LeBron, however I would like to add questions on leadership at Doowayne Wade and that shar pei they have "coaching" the team

The Cavs roster is mostly shite behind Lebron. You get newbie IT throwing blame at Love when IT has been largely crap thus far. The old guys are just old, only able to contribute in spurts. Their overpaid role players are now immovable (TT, JR, Shump). I am surprised how poorly Crowder has fit in; I thought he was a great get in that trade and a nice fit. IMO they need to swap out everyone other than Lebron, Love, Green, and Crowder, but that's just not possible. Flawed team construction.

I'll agree that Lebron has 1 foot out the door. Starting to think Kyrie knew Lebron wasn't coming back and he was tired of the drama, along with the uncertainty.

Is this why Kyrie left? I'm starting to think it is. Too much uncertainty and too much drama
At least he didn't pout & cry about it for months in the media like RW did when KD left. My goodness that was too much...
