but according to Wiggy the Heat would trade their entire roster for ONE talented...but VERY injury-prone...point guard...:lol:


Kyrie is talented, but 0 playoff appearances without James and annual health issues.
Not saying there is a huge difference in talent between him and other top guards, but if I'm signing one to a max, I have to go with the ones without the injury history.

AMEN LEBRON!!! PREACH!

So, but I think it does suck that people want to throw my name in dirt for no particular reason, because of speculation or whatever the case may be. But you can't worry about it too much. I got 14 guys here. I got a fan base here and a fan base all over the world that loves what I do, and they respect what I do, and I can't worry about a select group of people that wants to use their negative energy to take away my positive energy. I can't allow that to happen."

Did you honestly think he was going to say anything else?

Of course he's a coach killer!!!

LeBron James May Have Been a Coach Killer His Entire Career and We Just Didn't See It

LeBron earns reputation as coach killer

Isola: LeBron James now the King of coach killers, too

Let's look at the complete list of LeBron's coaches not named David Blatt during his 12 years in the league...

Paul Silas
.... fired during LeBron's 2nd year in the league with a W-L record well below .500
Mike Brown... kept his job the entire time LeBron was there... most people think Cavs should have fired him earlier
Eirk Spoelstra.... still has his gig


Yep, that LeBron is a coach killer all right.

The average tenure of a LeBron coach is much, much longer than the league average.

i was listening to some commentary that made a lot of sense the more you thought about it concerning the Woj article....

REALLY? LeBron is going through ALL THIS TROUBLE- so Paul and Klutch sports can get the commission on a coaches salary? is that a joke? What is the commission on a coaches salary? Like what is a typical deal/ 3 years 14 million? 10 percent of that? 1.4 million? GTFOOH. ya know?

Yeah, you're right. Doesn't make any sense. Woj has been the only person to report that (other than people reporting on woj's article). Woj articles should always be taken with a grain of salt... especially when it concerns LeBron.

his contacts are the agents- anyone that has followed him for any length of time knows that. And some of that article is true in that- I am SURE a ton of the agents HATE Paul - not only because of the power he wields with a HUGE spender like Dan Gilbert- but also because he broke up the old boys club and represents something that is EXTREMELY dangerous to those agents- an empowered client keeping the money in-house.

I have to say I think it's ridiculous how 'Bronbron haters pretend like they care soooo much about David fucking Blatt.

Who really cares?

A Heat minority owner actually came out and said that Lebron tried to have Spoelstra fired at one point. Thoughts?

LeBron's handling of Blatt unbecoming
When I saw Lebron talk about how he never undermined a coach, and how people throw his name in the dirt for no reason, THIS was the FIRST article I thought about. For whatever reason, this article went way under the radar last summer...

That's eerie to say the least.

Of course it isn't the commission that's important, but the more 'yes' men LeBron has in his corner, the more he likes it.
This entire move back to the Cavs was solely about how much power he could gather.
If you choose to believe anything different, you're certainly entitled to, but if that's the case you're prob out looking for Bigfoot, Mermaids and unicorns.

You think it's a coincidence that Tristan who signed with him suddenly got paid 2x what anyone else would pay him?

Come on.........follow the dots.

I doubt James makes any promotional trips to Israel any decade soon.
