It's okay, all we have to do is Check the $tats to verify the occurrence.

[john_d]

LeBron is such a douche

[ProfessorMurder]

Hahaha! He probably made it worse by having the tapes collected. Now people will be wondering just how massive that dunk was.

That kid will have some hype now.

So vicious that the tapes were confiscated hahaha.

[Da Ballahollic]

Awww thats weak LeBron/NIKE..:mad:


Let us see it. And Im a Cavs fan.

It was a triple pump 720 windmill slamma jamma. His nuts also impacted Lebron's face. It was THAT bad.

Spread that rumor please.

[nnn123]

Oh haha that dunk, i thought maybe someone put the Crawford dunk on youtube

[FinishHim!]

No surprises there anymore, that's Bron for you. Definition of poor sport. Didn't see Kobe pulling that stunt when the OJ Mayo dunk was circulating.

[NastaMaverick]

wow what a p*ssy b*tch.

[ProfessorMurder]

Spread that rumor please.

I heard that his balls slammed into both of Bron's eyes. So hard that, now each eye is a half inch further back in his head.

Sadly, his court vision will be permanently messed up.

[hayden695]

dont worry guys he only did it for his new slogan

"im lebron james, i may be the greatest but im human too see i get dunked on, now buy my shoes"

[OneMoreSucka]

Love how someone, somehow, incorporates Kobe into every Lebron thread.

[FinishHim!]

Love how someone, somehow, incorporates Kobe into every Lebron thread.
But the thing is, i'm not even a Kobe fan.. but damn this is just pathetic of Bron. He makes immensely more money than the guy, is wildly popular, and is at worst considered the 2nd best player in the league (the best by most), and yet his ego wouldn't allow him to let the guy have his 15 seconds of fame on youtube. Pathetic.

[OneMoreSucka]

A lot more people will be talking about it now than if it had actually been released. Since every article is basically just a free plug for Nike, this = unintentional marketing. Brilliance.

[daballa13]

LeBron James is a ****ing arrogant douche. Such a tool.

[MTing]

:oldlol:
Damn I wanna see it.

[triangleoffense]

rofl. some cat beat him at horse too.

not surprised that Labrick wanted the videotape confiscated.

lol, you're calling this negative press intentional??? I'm pretty sure they could think of better ways to get Lebron James's name out there.

[Younggrease]

[QUOTE]They were split into teams, and LeBron had his own team. In all the college player

[The GM]

I so hope this gets leaked, Lebron is making himself look worse by the day..

[BigTicket]

If true that's not cool Lebron, I want to see that clip. You might be on my team, but you gotta be a bigger man than that.

[Kumo]

If true that's not cool Lebron, I want to see that clip. You might be on my team, but you gotta be a bigger man than that.

His team you mean?

[OG LeeTSkeeT]

What ever happened to "We Are All Witnesses"??

[Younggrease]

this kind of reminds me of the story I heard of MJ getting dunked on by some random guy at the park who was eye level with the rim...

[mongePR(kb24)]

What ever happened to "We Are All Witnesses"??

:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

[applejoe]

This is all rumors until we see some proof. I could say I did a 360 dunk on Shaq and DHoward the other day but the tape got confiscated. Stop overhyping this, kids

[magnax1]

God Nike knows how to ruin my day.

Courtney Lee mashed on LeBron twice in the playoffs.

NO.

Lebron was coming from behind.

[sixerfan82]

haha, bron bron is a chump

[godofgods]

Lame. But then again, Stern has always tried to hide videos of Jordon/Kobe getting embarrassed or dunked on. So this is nothing new.

[ronron15]

this guy is too commercialized. he's not real. i've been saying it

[applejoe]

Stop downplaying the possibility of it actually happening.

There's still no video. Right now it's just a few bloggers writing stories.

[YAWN]

and a plethora of eye witnesses confirming the story. at you trying to say it didnt happen :roll:

[cavsfanatic]

I seen this earlier... I think its hysterical for a number of reasons

1. lebron gets more press coverage than obama
2.its not the first time a star gets banged on and the tape disappears...jj hickson yammed on dwayne wade this past season and a few plays later wade blocked hicksons dunk attempt.....guess which one is on youtube?
3.if you not a cavs fan how do you know all this stuff? Do u google stuff?
4.it could not have taken place in akron...he was in idaho with dan gilbert at some big elite gathering

[Lebron23]

I seen this earlier


I hope you can upload the Video on youtube.

[JustSaying]

If true, just one more proof of LBJ's arrogance and lack of sportsmanship. What a douche-bag!

[AAckley1]

This rumor just makes me hate Kelvin Sampson even more.

[Butters]

My comp sucks and the links won't work for me,

Am i understanding this right?

Kid dunks on LeBron,LeBron wont let anyone on the outside see the dunk?

Well, to be fair, they said NIKE was the one confiscating the tapes, not LeBron.

Depends, I guess. I mean, if you were someone's manager and they get really famous and then something happens, won't you instinctively do everything in your power to try and "cover up" for the event?

Jesus, it's not like he ****ing murdered someone. The only significant effect that the leaking of the video could have would be the hyping of Jordan. It's not like people are going to stop supporting LeBron James, the best player in the NBA, because he got dunked on during a pick-up game. :rolleyes:

Actually, I pretty much agree with you. Just because he got dunked on, it's not like his fans will just suddenly take a huge dump on him. Sure, the people who saw it may have gone "OMFG!!! DID YOU F***ING SEE THAT?!? THAT WAS OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG", but damn, that happens! I don't think anyone goes "Oh! Erick Dampier got dunked on by Earl Boykins. His career is over." whenever it happens. Well, it's partly due to the fact that we can see that in almost every Dallas game, but still.

are you seriously trying to say it didnt happen? :lol

its being reported by numerous people who were there as well as sites like cbs and fox sports.

he got dunked on, not a big deal whatsoever. the story is why would the tapes get taken away from the people who were filming after he got dunked on.

the thing which confuses me is why people are acting like it's some kind of basketball miracle - Lebron got dunked, so what, it happens:confusedshrug: I doubt he put all of his effort on the court and it's not like other superstars never got posterized in their carrer...

[Butters]

We are talking about LeBron James here,the guy probably throws down in parents against the kids games and then gives the kids a "Im a winner" look.

And it's not so much that it never happens and its the greatest thing everto dunk on a person,it's getting buzz because the tapes we're taken away.Simple as that.

Yet when Lebron hits trick shots and its caught on camera? A huge deal is made about it. Dispite the fact numerous NBA players have done it, just never recorded it. :confusedshrug:

How often does a youngster dunk on a professional basketball player that is considered one of the games biggest freaks of nature in NBA history? If it wasnt a big deal why would the video footage be hidden to the public? I bet if Bron hit a shot from the bleachers while sitting down? A big deal would be made. But I'm less likely to believe you'd enter and say "Who cares? He got lucky.". Enough.

[Meticode]

OH NO! LeBron hits trick shots, it's video taped! LeBron gets dunked on, the tape is confiscated! Oh no! The end o the world! Big news!

People let the media player to their emotions too much.

His trick shots are nothing to talk about, him getting dunk on is nothing to talk about. I'm tired, I'm out... :sleeping

I'm a biased Cavs/Bron fan. Nothing I said is reasonable. I'm just Anderson Varaejo, defensive but flopping in my attempt.

:roll:

:applause:

[Take Your Lumps]

Why the **** would you give up your tape to some marketing people?

I could understand if you're taking pictures of some top-secret government building and the MIB confiscated your camera but we're talking about a pickup basketball game. I wouldn't have given them ****.

[John Smith]

Jordan would never do this.

[Melissa]

if Jordan got dunked on he would have forced that scrub to play him one on one 200 times dunked on him for every point he scored, and laughed at him as he died of water dehydration.

I heard a rumor that Danny Green destroyed LeBron in Practice.

Everyone gets dunked on... Nice pic...

[phoenix18]

I guess Lebron thinks that he shouldnt be dunked on because he is such a great dunker himself. If that was me, I am doing a 540 windmill next time I see crawford at the rim. Well, if I had the ability to do that.

[monkeypox]

Everyone gets dunked on... Nice pic...


Yup. In fact I remember Jordan got blocked by a counselor at one of his camps, then i think the guy actually scored on him right afterwards. you have to consider that these superstars aren't exactly going full force at these camps and probably assume that the invites wont take advantage of that fact against the guy that signs their checks. It's sad that the PR people had to take the tape, they probably made this a bigger deal that it should have been. But then people on the internet will literally take anything and turn it in to some kind of dis on the player. Just look at the constant stream of players in sexual positions we get from knuckleheads on this site.

Anyways. random pic.

Wow.....I have lost all respect for Lebron.....what a classless loser, I hope he never wins $hit. Now Nike should do a commercial with the Puppets with the puppet kid dunking on Lebron. Pompous spoiled classless Le Bronze......First time i've ever agreed with Skip the Ahole Bayliss.

[gyu]

This reminds me of that dunk that T-Mac did which was supposedly so nasty it ruined James Felton's career as a player. It was back when they were still in High School and were at a McDonald's game, but no video footages available.

I somewhat agree. Now the "lost all respect" and the "classless loser" part, is a bit extreme, but I feel what your trying to get out.

Poor move on Nike's part though, wtf were they thinking? Give the kid his fame, and move on with it.

The only reason this is a story is because Nike/LeBron overreacted and took the tapes. Nobody would have thought less of Bron just because he got dunked on. This was a stupid move in my opinion, but luckily for Bron with how short most people's attention spans are they will have forgotten about this by the time the season starts.

[darius15]

No, but Iverson is a Cancer ON COURT for his team. He's a selfish player. LeBron is not these things. Also, LeBron doesn't have off court legal problems like Iverson and or Kobe.

LeBron is acting like a immature brat, but in no way in hell is he anything like Iverson.

[GOBB]

No, but Iverson is a Cancer ON COURT for his team

No he's not. Why make up things and better yet why use a word you have zero CLUE to its meaning? :confusedshrug:

When Lebron dunks on someone we have threads, .gifs, photos and then rank it among season dunks.

When Lebron gets dunked on, well we get the lectures of "people get dunked on all the time. no big deal.".

I coach basketball and feel that win or lose you show proper respect for your opponent by shaking hands, I have grabbed my players by the jersey and dragged them back over to the winning team to make them shake hands.....I don't go for the sore loser crap....so to see the supposed "FACE" of the NBA act like that was a huge turnoff......now THIS!!!! I just don't respect the guy, I see who he really is now.

Its not about him getting dunked on, but the fact that he had all of the videotapes CONFISCATED.... He can't take a loss, and he can't take a dunk to the face.

Its impossible for Nike to confiscate "ALL" tapes, lol. What about the digitally recorded stuff? If this happened. There is some footage.

How did they do it? Did they make people surrender their cell phone footage too? Did they check people at the door for video cameras or their digi cams?

I'm not even disputing that LeBron got dunked on. I'm just wondering about this tape claim. That sounds fishy.

Found something cool related to this on the i-net
-"I'm wondering if LeBron reacted like Wilt Chamberlain did when a similar thing happened to him in the legendary Ruckers summer league---

"People still talk about the time I (Connie Hawkins) went up and hook-dunked over Wilt Chamberlain in the Rucker," he said, "but that was only the start of the story. That hook-dunk over Wilt got him mad, then Jackie Jackson really got Wilt mad. Jackie was one of the great leapers. I've seen him leap and snatch a quarter off the top of the backboard.

"After my hook-dunk, Jackie told me to let Wilt take that fadeaway one-hander that banked high off the backboard, and when Wilt put the ball up there, Jackie leaped and trapped it, pinning it against the backboard.

"Everybody hollered and screamed, but Wilt called time out. Wilt didn't say anything, but when we looked over, we could see him glaring at us. The next 10 times down the court, Wilt said, 'Gimme the ball' and he dunked it every time. Hard. One time he dunked the ball so hard, it bounced up over a 15-foot fence. Wilt didn't like to be shown up."

Iverson was real. He was hood. The league even tried to stop his interviews when he first got out. He spoke real ghetto. He'll say whatever on his mind. He didn't give a flying f**K. But his popularity got so high that it didn't matter.

LBJ cares about his image, interviews, advertisements. He says things that's good for his advertisements. His ADVERTISEMENTS!!!!! That's why he want that clip taken out. There's a difference on how these two create a negative image of themselves.

If Jordan Crawford becomes an NBA star, he should sign a deal with Nike and they could use that as his first commercial to endorse his shoe that Nike will make for him!

I meant to bold "Sounds fishy" which is why i said definately a possibility. Maybe someone response/reaction was "Nike just took all the tapes to that!" said in jest yet was taken serious by someone. And here we are in a thread slamming Nike/Bron for "tapes" we cant see. Maybe nothing was recorded to begin with? :confusedshrug:

Another thing is it could have been restricted as far as taping went? Like we may assume other folks were recording but maybe it was limited?

i'll laugh if the dunk comes out to be not too serious.

The media is all over this now. This is hilarious.

[unknown101]

i'll laugh if the dunk comes out to be not too serious.


Lol, Just imagine how funny it would be if it got leaked and it wasnt even over Lebron, but Lebron was a couple feet away from him when he dunked it.

But what would make that more funny, the fact that we overhyped it, or the fact that Lebron made them take away a video of someone with some weak ass dunk with him nearby?

[Dresta]

I seen this earlier... I think its hysterical for a number of reasons

1. lebron gets more press coverage than obama
2.its not the first time a star gets banged on and the tape disappears...jj hickson yammed on dwayne wade this past season and a few plays later wade blocked hicksons dunk attempt.....guess which one is on youtube?
3.if you not a cavs fan how do you know all this stuff? Do u google stuff?
4.it could not have taken place in akron...he was in idaho with dan gilbert at some big elite gathering
Yeah Wade confiscated all the tapes and recordings made of that match :hammerhead:

Not even remotely similar.

[Interminator]

:oldlol: @ people surprised by this.

Why the **** would LeBron want a video of him being dunked on at his own skills academy circulate the internet.

It just shows you

Jordan >>>> LeBron

If it comes out that Lebron never asked for the tapes? Then alot of you will be kissing his ass.

[Phong]

I'm so confused about how you can just go over and take someone's tapes, w/o prior warning. WTF?? Sounds kinda sketchy....
It was during his Skills Academy which I believe is organized by Nike.

They probably made people sign agreements regarding what they're allowed to film, who they can interview etc.

Since nothing they film is broadcasted live on TV it's easy for them to stop the video before it hits youtube.

[gts]

One of those who had his material pried away was freelancer Ryan Miller, who said Nike Basketball Senior Director Lynn Merritt snagged his tape seemingly at the behest of King James himself. Talking to Gary Parrish at CBS Sports, Miller states:
"He just said, 'We have to take your tape.' They took it from other guys, too. LeBron called Lynn over and told him something. That's how I knew his name was Lynn. LeBron said, 'Hey, Lynn. Come here.'"

Soon after, Miller was forced to part with his prized footage even though he had been filming at the Academy all day without incident. The cameraman added, "There's nothing I can think of besides LeBron just not wanting it online."

[RedBlackAttack]

Another non-story that is only making headlines because it is LeBron. It sounds greatly exaggerated, all the way around. I have a hard time believing that LeBron had a hand in confiscating any and all recordings of the event. Everyone gets dunked on and it wouldn't be the first time for LeBron.

If Nike decided to confiscate all of the recordings because they felt it was embarrassing to LeBron, they did him a great disservice, because I highly doubt it was as bad as people imagine it to be after all of the hype that it has received.

Again, though... Don't believe everything you read. How do we even know that there were cameras at this thing? It sounds awfully vague and contrived. I don't doubt LeBron was dunked on. I do have my doubts that there is some sort of conspiracy to have all evidence destroyed.

LeBron has gotten a lot of bad press lately. This relative non-issue was one of the headlines on ESPN.com today and it was a topic discussed on PTI, Around the Horn, etc. I don't know how the myth that LeBron is catered to by the media can persist when tiny events like this one that the reporting of which may or may not be accurate are driven into the ground by the same networks that apparently worship said player.

Like I've said before... The only thing that the American media likes more than building up a hero is tearing them down. You are starting to see the beginnings of this with LeBron. They are literally crawling all over him, waiting for him to make minor slip ups so that they can pounce.

Sad part is most people are indiffernt to Lebron...He evokes no emotion and this is a bad thing for the game. Soon Kobe will be gone and "this" is all we will be left with....its actually quite sad. With all the commercials, all the shoes, all the press he still isnt dominating by far the dominating NBA personality...

The reason this is big is b/c he has a history of acting like a spoiled *****...He does many little spoiled ***** attention whoring moves...That is who is and people are starting to see it. But unlike Kobe he doesnt inspire with his game and skill...its either you dont like him or your indifferent to him...Even today when Kobe is pretty much a jumpshooter kids are out there trying to be like Kobe and ignoring Lebron...

NBA is in bad hands because no one likes watching Lebron's ugly game and non-existent personality....People are starting to get sick of the constant..."My legacy" talk doing post game conferences etc...Stop worrying about crafting you legacy and get in the damn post win a championship.

you highly doubt it was as bad as people say...everybody there said it was bad including the #1 prospect in the high school class and many other top prospects. They have all seen some nasty dunks so I trust them. Your basing your assumption on absolutely nothing

Actually, regardless of how bad it is, it likely would not live up to people's expectations now that it has gotten the amount of press that it has. That was my point. I don't doubt that it was a nasty posterization, but how many basketball facials do you see garnering 8-page threads and top headlines on ESPN.com?

It better be akin to VC jumping over that 7-footer or it will not live up to the hype. That is the point.

I'm saying that if networks (most notably ESPN) were as biased toward LeBron and so afraid to say anything negative about the guy (as many like to argue), then this story would not be as discussed as it has been in the last 24 hours or so. They are lighting the fire under this discussion.

Also, there is no doubt that the media is crawling all over LeBron. How many times have you seen athletes criticized for their choice of t-shirts? It just doesn't happen all that often... Check that... I can't remember it ever happening before.

How so? because Nike had to confiscate a tape because they weren't suppose to be filming in the first place? Lebron is actually pretty mature for someone his age and the success he has had. Any law trouble like a lot of young athletes these days?

[RedBlackAttack]

I read somewhere that there isn't suppose to be people taping the camp.
Right... This is what I am thinking. So, there aren't supposed to be tapes of the camp... Maybe someone had a recorder setup and they were told it wasn't allowed. This turned into a big conspiracy theory about LeBron and Nike working in unison to destroy all evidence of a play... It just sounds far-fetched and your explanation seems more likely.

Then again, a lot of people obviously want to believe that there is some wide-ranging conspiracy, so it doesn't matter what people say.

LeBron would be best off, at this point, by forcing the release of the tape. It might initially gain some laughs, but people would soon forget about it. With the way it is now, people's imaginations are running wild, which makes it seem much worse than it probably was.

If the goal was to protect his image, this had the opposite effect (with the aid of ESPN and other media outlets which LeBron is supposed to have in his back pocket).

cant do that...they would have to sign a waiver, or something stating that or he would need some sort of notice.

As someone who has been to a ton of camps and been around my share of NBA players at camps I have NEVER heard of anything like this...And Im pretty sure Kobe's camp is Nike sponsored and there are tapes of his game all over the place for various officials...Are you suggesting someone dropped the ball there?

Nike took the tapes from actual journalists. I doubt Nike wants post camp scrimmages all on youtube weather James got dunked on or not.

they were allowed to tape the Nike Camp but not after hours, the link I gave earlier said that.

If video taping is not allowed what was a freelance videographer doing there? Making flip books of the event? If you really think this is just Nike following their rules you're in denial. You really think if LeBron was posterizing Crawford, Nike still would have taken the tape? Every other pickup game was being taped and no one cared till LeBron got dunked on.

why would they care what goes on after the camp is done for the day?

i know of no business that's tentacles reach that far after hours for non employess...

these kids pay damn good money to come to the camp, during hours i can understand but when they blow the whistle on that days events they shouldn't be flexing their muscles that way.. they don't own these kids, they don't have them uder contract.. if these kids are free to play ball in an unorganized non nike event on private property after hours then i cannot see where nike has the right to say what can and can't be taped.. if lebron or any other member of the nike camp doesn't want to be caught on tape then they should just leave the kids be and get out of there

[Younggrease]

Like I said earlier media were allowed to tape the camp, but not after hours, when the pickup games took place.

I would have to see some kind of paperwork or waiver...Pretty sure they would have to sign something stating this before the camp.

[AlThornton]

So I've been searching for these other Nike sponsored camps, LeBron last year, Amare, Paul Pierce, DWIll, Vince Carter, and I cant find any footage of actual after-hour pick up games besides drills during the camp.........

[AlThornton]

I would have to see some kind of paperwork or waiver...Pretty sure they would have to sign something stating this before the camp.

I dont have that but from the link I gave earlier the Nike representative said

"Nike has been operating basketball camps for the benefit of young athletes for decades and has long-standing policies as to what events are open and closed to media coverage. Unfortunately, for the first time in four years, two journalists did not respect our no videotaping policy at an after-hours pickup game following the LeBron James Skills Academy," said Nike spokesman Derek Kent on Wednesday."

How did I get owned? I gave him the facts. Taping during camp is allowed, after hours its not. If video taping after-hour pickup games are fine by Nike how come we don't see any of that stuff on youtube of other various Nike camps?

From what I have heard the dunk happened in the beginning of the game. The reason I buy into Nike's story is because I don't see after-hour pick up games sponsored by Nike on youtube anywhere, and I have looked for a good 30 minutes. If they are truly allowed to tape after-hour pick up games wouldn't there be hundreds of hours of footage out there on youtube ranging from LeBron, Amare, Nash, Pierce, DWill etc......................?

Even if the rules are broken, the timing and the events surrounding the confiscation are what bother people. It's disingenuous to paint this incident as just being a matter of following the rules, ignoring the circumstances that led up to it. It's like a ref tripping and falling over and seeing a bench player laugh at him, see's that his toe is on the court and calls a T on him. You can quote rules all day long if you want, still doesn't make it any less a douche move.

Are you honestly saying that the dunk had nothing to do with the confiscation? Or are you justifying the act because there were rules set in place beforehand, and the motivation to do so is to be ignored?

there's is hundreds of hours of it on you tube some looks like it was shot by pros other stuff looks like it was shot by family of the kids in the camp... most of kobes stuff takes place indoors...

here's one, definetly not shot by a pro, but there's camera men all over the place, guys with mics. kids taking pictures with camera phones...lol i cannot for the life of me understand why this wouldn't be controlled more by nike but after hours it's a problem? i'm sorry it just makes zero sense at all

Where are you not getting this? They let them free shoot all of the time untill the dunk happens and LeBron calls his man over? All of a sudden it became a problem? Are you seriously this groupiefied?

From what I have heard the dunk happened in the beginning of the game. You were allowed to shoot during the camp, but after the camp ended and after hour pickup games started you werent. Cameramen probably didn't get that memo and kept taping, even though Nike rep said they knew of the events they could tape and could not. It probably wasen't strictly forced but forced none the less.

[Indian guy]

Sad part is most people are indiffernt to Lebron

Yeah, that explains why the highest rated non-National TV playoff game in league history was a Cleveland game from this year's ECF.


He evokes no emotion

Yet every little thing he does is talked about everywhere. Be it the media or the message boards. Doesn't matter if it's an on-court story or something off-court. If it's LeBron, it's going to be talked about everywhere. The guy is the biggest, most talked about star in the league today. If he wasn't, nobody would give a sh!t about what jersey he had on or who dunked on him. Besides, a Kobe fanboy should be the last person saying LeBron doesn't evoke emotion. Nobody is more emotional about LeBron than LA fans. I'm telling you, LA fans around the net celebrated Cleveland's playoff exit more than LA winning the actual championship. It's downright amazing the effect LeBron has on LA fans. They are going nuts even over this latest story. I would've thought Kobe winning a championship would've made 'em a bit more secure. Guess I was wrong.


Soon Kobe will be gone and "this" is all we will be left with

Yeah, the league's going to miss those single digit TV ratings of the the last 2 NBA Finals :oldlol:

What really is there to see from their perspective? I don't think anyone thinks that Nike doesn't have a motivation to take the tapes. Image protection is important for them. If their star athlete asks that tapes be confiscated they better hop to it.

In your view they never wanted anyone to tape, just didn't notice the two guys taping, LeBron just happened to notice them taping right after he was dunked on and called over the Nike guy to take the tapes? How is that an objective view of the events?

maybe it wasen't strictly forced, like security guard is going to come and kick you out, but I'm sure there was a rule in place. Since its James camp he probably told them to get rid of the cameras.

Dude, the camermen said theyt were shooting ALL DAY, but soon after that dunk happend, MJ pulled his Nike man aside and told him to grip the tapes...Soon after that, they weren't allowed to shoot their cams anymore...

A friend of mine just talked to his buddy at LeBrons camp, he said the dunk was pretty sick.

I for one find it totally believable that they had a no after hours taping rule in place. It's like a insider only event not for everyone's eyes. But either way I think the issue is moot, it still doesn't make it cool for LeBron to ask for the tapes to be confiscated after he was embarrassed.

At UCLA during the summers there are legendary pick up games that involve players from all levels of basketball that are not open to the public. Sometimes people can sneak in and watch them even though technically they're not supposed to be there. Don't you think it's kind of crappy for an nba player to kick someone out of the gym just because they saw them get embarrassed? It's the rules yeah, but it's a petty thing to do.

I've said it before, I don't think this is that big a deal. But let's not completely whitewash it.

still wouldnt do anything in my eyes...the ***** move already occured

[Showtime]

Rules? Policy? He was allowed in the building with the camera. He was allowed to use said camera. The use was tolerated all day during camp. And only afterward, once the dunk happened and Lebron took the guy aside did they ask for the tape. So no, they didn't have rules or policy because they weren't doing anything to enforce it all day long, AND they didn't ask them to stop taping after the camp had concluded.

[Phong]

The only way I can see him spin the whole situation in his favor would be to say that the tapes were never confiscated because of a dunk. And then show everybody what's on the tape and hope that the dunk was super super lame and not even performed on him.

Otherwise he's fu@#ed. :lol

This doesn't change the fact that LeBron James is one of the Best Player's In The Game, and will one day IMO, be the Greatest Player To ever grace the NBA hardwood...This doesn't change the fact that LeBron "King" James is coming off of an NBA MVP...This doesn't change the fact that he put up Super Great Number's vs the Orlando Magic during the playoffs...

He's still the future ATM, and he's doing a dam good job at proving to me that the NBA has a Very Bright future...Yes, he's going through the off-court Bone head BS, but so did Kobe and Jordan....

LeBron is just taking his much deserved knock on this topic...Even the most Homered out LeBron Powder Boy will admit that what LeBron did was kinda gay...And I would Kill Kobe the same way im doing LeBron...FACT. Like how I killed Kobe for choking our 04' Championship title away because he wanted all the glory and acted like a f*cking immature brat b!tch...

LeBron get's dunked on and is ****ing embarrassed. Not a big deal......anybody here who has played ball here knows how bad it is to get dunked on.....it's probably the worst thing that can happen to you on the court. I don't blame him for not letting that tape get out.

That being said, it's not a life or death situation...he should let the tape leak or something and just laugh it off...still on the best players in the world and the other kid is not lol

we all know lebron is a prima donna (alot of stars are)
we all know nike is trying to insulate him from bad PR (they have failed miserably on that front today)

they should have just pulled the camera men aside asked then how much for the tape, doubled it, paid them off and asked them back to do some more filiming the next day.
end of problem, the camera men go out and blow the cash on a big expensive dinner and go to bed sated and drunk, nike gets the tapes and has a alibi, "hey they do good work we even asked them back for the next day!" and lebron is a happy camper

Seems more luck than anything. I only know two people who have watched games and both were by luck. One was a student at ucla at the time walking by the gym and I guess they opened a door for ventilation, he just walked in to see what was going on and saw reggie miller and some ucla guys playing a pick up game. The other was on campus as part of a job interview and caught a game with a retired magic and some nba players.

Nah, nah, nah. I'm saying......it is one of the worst feelings ever playing basketball to get dunked on. Thankfully, it has never happened to me but almost. If it was being recorded....the first thing that would come to mind is "damn, I don't want anybody to see that"....why? it's embarrassing as hell lol

At the same time, you gotta realize, it's just a game and you being embarrassed or getting shown up is part of the game. His emotions after getting dunked on are normal...but you still gotta control them and laugh it off or forget it in the end. If you don't, you will continue to feel worse and worse if things like this happen again......Understand?
