Official Offseason News and Rumors

[TurnUpTheHeat]

1. The presence of attention says absolutely nothing about one's desire for it. They are unrelated.

2. Its not that hard? As someone who recently spent 2 months mulling over several job offers I couldn't disagree more.

I'm pretty sure your decision has little in common in mindset with his decision.

I'm assuming you are working because you need money, job stability, living stability, etc.

James doesn't.
He couldn't spend what he has in 10 lifetimes. He can pick and choose any city that he wants to live in or play for.


He knows what each team can offer now, and he's putting trust into what they will say they will do in the future.

What is there to think about?

There obviously HUGE differences in his decision and mine and the stakes involved.

Where you see that as making his easier than mine... I see it making his harder.

I think I have done that as well tlance. Re-read some of my earlier posts. I state clearly that people are generating a frenzy over this that creates an event that takes on a life of its own and Lebron does his part to keep all going because as has bee stated he loves the attention.

The behavior I am referring to gordontrue is the flying to Las Vegas to have a meeting that could have been held in Miami then catching a pick-up game for what reason noone knows and then getting on a plane to go watch soccer, all the while there are people who are putting their lives on hold while this guy makes up his mind on HIS future, yada, yada, yada.

Just a disjointed series of events that have little connection to the task at hand instead of stating in a concise statement: "Look I am taking an extended period of time to make a decision so don't call me or text me or ask me any more quesions until such and such a date: would have been better appropriate behavior that befits a player of his stature and professional profile.

The whole affair reminds me of an individual that wants the perks and benefits that come with being the so-called best player in the world but then shirking the not-so fun stuff like being cognizant of other people's lives, being organized, professional, and forthright befitting of a professional basketball player in today's NBA.

Sort of like how Jim Buss behaves. A billionaire who dresses like a 13 year petulant boy and then trys to parlay himself off as a masterful techtician of basketball and as an owner of a franchise. It is simply pathetic to watch.

What it comes down to is people want him to make HIS decision on THEIR timetable.

If he wants to wait till August that's his right.

 

[Retroram52]

If he wants to wait till August then simply state that starbigd and go on about your business. I don't need to know where he is going to play basketball like yesterday. My existence is unknown to these people so it doesn't matter to me where he is going to play.

What does matter is the obvious display of a lack of awareness of others in this process. When he just does what he wants without any apparent regard for his peers, that is what concerns me the most. But again, what does my opinion matter to any one of these people? Very little.

Easy for you to say, you aren't the one that has preesure on you every second by billions and especially the fact he wants his legacy and career to be the best ever. You and any of us don't know how hard this decision is for him.

You Heat fans I would think would understand more than others, you haven't br kind to Lebron dueing this process and sounds like you would dog him if he left. Very disappointing...smh

I won't dog him at all. Ive made that perfectly clear.

I 100% believe in the FA process.

My impatience is because:

1. I believe the decision is made. If not, I stand corrected.
Do you think if it is made that there is any reason to stall?

2. I care about the Heat waaaayyyy more than LBJ, so by him stalling, he's hurting Rileys chance to build the best roster that he can if he knows what he's dealing with.


3. He owes fans, or the Heat nothing, but he owes Bosh the courtesy of letting him know what he's going to do.

[DJ Fieri]

Lunch, about time.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Cleveland traded 3 1st rounders?

Holy shit.

 

[Hambombs]

Cleveland traded 3 1st rounders?

Holy shit.

I think they only traded one

 

[DJ Fieri]

My bad, read it wrong.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I think they only traded one

The other 2 players WERE first round picks ...
So that's where it comes from.

 

[LAD]

No, it means he is a very good player. Nobody will argue that.

Call it what u want...i'm fine with that.

 

[LAD]

Ohhhhhhhh shit!! My bad... Didnt know....No cockblocking here.. Do your thing! Lol

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

Melo - " I'm gonna wait for Bron to decide."
LeBron - " I'm gonna wait for Bosh to decide."
Bosh - " I'm gonna wait for the next Jurassic Park to release."
Jurassic Park - " We need that dinosaur Bosh to continue filming."
ESPN - " Sources tell us Jurassic Park will join the Heat."

[LAD]

Please tell me more about these stunts and unbefitting behavior? If you're talking about 2010.. then sure. But this time around?


Is it when he... Didn't say anything.... or maybe its when he.... kept quiet... or maybe its all the.... silence.... you didn't like his lack of public apperances? I'm struggling here.
