lebron is an idiot.

Sigh... :facepalm

[oh the horror]

This guy is almost 26 years old, and he feels the need to do this.


Athletes + twitter = embarrassing.

[Hotlantadude81]

He is not interesting enough to bother.

Lebron's twitter can be summed up in one word: "haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"

[oh the horror]

Basically with the coming of twitter, facebook, etc....we now get to actually be made aware of the fragile ego of some of these men.



Back in the day, one has to rely on word of mouth, or stories that we may have heard around the way concerning the behavior and thought process of some of our favorite stars...now, the shit is all up in our faces.

[KingMichael23]

Wow...Queen James is lame.

[DukeDelonte13]

I wonder if he understands why people hate him

[JM720]

What the hell is wrong with him?...:confusedshrug:

He's been pushing this "I'm a victim" thing for about a month now. This is part of that.

[praneel]

Its only because he forgot to write down all the mental notes he took.

This way, he has it in writing.

[Pointguard]

I wonder if he understands why people hate him

Maybe you should twit him and ask?

[oh the horror]

I wonder if he understands why people hate him


Im sure in his ego-driven mind, he believes everyone hates him, because hes such a good ball player, and thats all.


The reality is....that isnt entirely the case. People DO tend to hate on great athletes, that are SO good, that it irks some....but....the truth is....people hate him, because hes an ass.

[thejumpa]

lol@people catching feelings. He's doing his thing right now...I expect big things this season. Maybe he'll finally use the hate as motivation to really play the best basketball he possibly can. I know I would.

[elementally morale]

Can I not keep my hate for myself?
I'm afraid of sending him all. If I do so, what is going to be left for me?

[Kurosawa0]

You guys overreact to this guy so easily. It's a Twitter account. 90% of the stuff he gets is probably negative. Just seems like he's having fun with it.

[Pointguard]

He needs fuel and he knows the haters can't help themselves. If people didn't twit him then how would he maintain the hate? Nothing worse than unconsiderate haters.

[Noah Rose]

Send him a tweet kissing his balls, he'll Re-tweet it!

It's true, no lie.

[oh the horror]

Overreact my balls. And NO ONE HERE is "catching feelings"



If anyone is catching feelings here, its Lebron.


That fool needs this attention. Most of us DONT CARE. But it is annoying to constantly be bombarded by this guy crying out for some type of boost all the time.


Its like the little pain in the ass brother, that you generally dont pay too much attention to, yet he is constantly up your ass, trying to annoy you, in order to get you to care about him in some shape or form.

[Ne 1]

You guys overreact to this guy so easily. It's a Twitter account. 90% of the stuff he gets is probably negative. Just seems like he's having fun with it.

Do you have alerts sent to you whenever a LeBron related thread is posted on this site or something? I swear every time LeBron is mentioned on here you always show up to persistently to defend him.

Seriously you act like the guy is a member of your family or something, you defend and apologize for literally EVERYTHING he does.

I'm honestly starting to think your Gloria James or maybe LeBron's beat writer or something.

[Stephen_H]

This whole hater thing is quite stupid. So is the older version of discrediting people with differing views, "Only God can judge me."

The ability to make judgements is a marker of intelligence!

For instance, LeBron is an arrogant fu** with no titles to back up his inflated ego.

And yet, the man feels a constant need to respond to, and swim in the negativity of his "haters" to feel validated somehow. Hmmm.

I actually like this; the more dissension, the better. Its entertaining.

PS - LeBron sucks. :lol

[thejumpa]

Well, I guess it's infinately more interesting than reading about his laundry updates, and that he's out to eat or some other boring ish.......

I'd rather have him send out shit like this to get people all frustrated over nothing then tweeting about going to dinner or practice or something. After all, it is entertainment.

[SavageMode]

Why not? If i was him I wouldnt take shit from haters. He made a twitter to respond to his fans through the web, why would he make one if he won't even talk to them? Plus hes just playing around, he basically knows he owns his haters so he can do whatever he wants to 'piss them off' kinda like what hes done to you. Also the haters already give him validation, I know they would for me.:cheers:

[Noah Rose]

Guys please do the OPPOSITE!

He hasnt done anything to me bro. I live my life, and Lebron lives his. And Ive had people that hate me for various reasons, and you know what I do? Ignore people like that outright, and go on living my life.


Having to address people that do not like you, by acting "condescending" toward them, as if you're owning them, and or messing with them, is just as bad as hating on people for stupid reasons to begin with.



I never understood the concept of paying SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much attention to people that hate on you. In some wierd way, at the end of the day, Lebron almost needs his haters. They make him feel something.


The people Ive noted in the past, that pay mind to their haters, and swim around in that human cesspool of negativity, and hate, and back and forth of that whole concept, are generally the biggest attention whores, or, they're usually not very bright.




The whole thing reeks of insecurities, and nonsensical young BS.



So, he acts a fool, to gain the negative attention.......and then he eats it up, and then pokes at it, and makes sure it festers, and proceeds to make people hate him more?




I dont care who it is....thats just piss poor upbringing.

[oh the horror]

One can only wonder too....will he be this concerned with his stats, during the regular season when the Heat are trying to do their thing collectively as a team?

Oh spare me dude, Blow THAT shit out of your ass. No one is LOOKING for anything. This guy literally ASKS to be hated by people.


You have MULTIPLE other players in the league who are fantastic, who do not even generate as much hate as he does. Why? Because he goes OUT OF HIS WAY to make sure people see, notice, and or hate on him.

+1

When I was growing up, I used to ignore players that I didn't like. Obviously Twitter wasn't out then, but it really says something about people who go out of their way to follow what the guy is doing and still criticize. People cannot either move on or just relax a little bit and laugh. Everything is so serious and everyone is so damn sensitive. News flash...it's YOU that fuels what he does. If you don't exist or ignore him, then this kind of shit doesn't exist.

He loves himself and this is exactly why.

LeBron is a great player, but a major attention whore. Why the hell would you, I or anyone here LOOK for reasons to hate him when he does it himself with this kind of crap? Gotta love his groupies in here defending everything he says, though. :oldlol:

Yes, all his Twitter subscribers need to read all the Articles that butt kisses LeBron, that's why he has to tweet it.

As for me, I'm not giving him much attention either way. He is a strange character who happens to be effective in basketball. There is nothing for me to especially like or dislike in his game, save for a few dunks here and a few passes there (which I like). Most of the time watching him for me is like OK, next. As a person... or even personality... come on. He isn't allowed to have a personality as he's been in the spotlight 24/7 from the age of 15-16. With childhood like that you won't have much of a personality.

Dude, I never even CARED about Lebron as an actual person until he started coming with sheer outlandish behavior. The guy is constantly under media fire, because he SEEKS out and puts himself out there like that. All of these silly shirts, checking his stats, one hour specials, and random other BS he does.

Now, hes such a caricature of an actual human being, that one cant help but clown on him.

[Nash]

I swear I love how he treats the haters. Grown ass men hating on a person they don't know is our societies joke. I hope he keeps on messing with those embarrassing and ridiculous haters.

Well, all of the players at his level are egomaniacs. Jordan, Kobe, Magic, Wilt etc. Kobe was the originator of "Taking my talents..."

Most of the stuff that I see him hated for would be things that it wouldn't even occur to me to think twice about.

It just baffles me some of the stuff that people try to twist into him being a jerk. He posted a link to an article about himself from Oprah's magazine. So?

It's obvious LeBron just can't lie low, and that he really just wants people's attention.

That's why I'm glad LeBron decided to get a twitter account. I know how bored he must feel just settling for 2 ESPN interviews a day.

At least his daily twitter comments provide some off-ball Michael Scott (from The Office) entertainment.

Thats what happens when you're a celebrity in the limelight, and you begin to create a negative image of yourself. People just hate, thats what they do in general anyway, but when you give them a few reasons to start on you, then it snowballs from there. Now, if the dude breaths funny, they pounce him.


Like I said earlier, when you put yourself out there as a "character", that embodies the silly traits of a stereotype, then people will treat you as such.


And that is what you're seeing. People jumping all over him for asinine reasons. They dont care about him as a person, because he acts, or portrays a "fool". So people treat him like a fool. He has become almost a punching bag for haters.

[BallsOut]

It just baffles me some of the stuff that people try to twist into him being a jerk. He posted a link to an article about himself from Oprah's magazine. So?

It's not enough for Lebron to read the article and like it. He wants to make sure the whole world has to see what positive thing oprah says about him.

That would be like if Kobe posted the quote of Jordan saying that Kobe is the best player in the nba. He'd never go out of his way to do that. Matter of fact he doesn't even have a twitter account because this dude is dedicated to the game 24/7. Their egos aren't the same.

Lebron actually goes out of his way to be an attention wh0re.

Watching basketball superstars for input on personalities is like going to party to be left at piece. It can be done... but it's extremely difficult. I like following the NBA off the court because the stories entertain me. But I don't really care about these manufactured guys like Kobe or LeBron. It's not their fault though. Society and the media puts them somewhere they don't belong in the first place (this much money, role models? wtf???) only to let them fall for even more attention and clicks.

Basketball players are not role models. They shouldn't be. They need not be. They are there to play the game. If/when some of them are original, genuinely funny or down to earth, it's a relief. But not to be expected.

[Kurosawa0]

First off, that wasn't Oprah. It was her magazine, but she didn't write it.

LeBron's been criticized very heavily the summer. Maybe that article expresses how he feels about what he did. Just because you may not like doesn't mean he has to dislike himself.

[Noah Rose]

The thing is, how exactly is him posting someone saying he had a good game or a link to an article him portraying a fool? Do you know how many athletes on Twitter have done the exact same thing a million times over?
He posts it, so that EVERYONE can read it.

However, if you just send him a generic message, LeBron just "Replies" to you the sender so no one knows what you write.

But if your message is one that says how GREAT he is, LeBron will "Re-Tweet" it so EVERYONE can see it.

Try it out!

[Kurosawa0]

Basketball players are not role models. They shouldn't be. They need not be. They are there to play the game. If/when some of them are original, genuinely funny or down to earth, it's a relief. But not to be expected.

100% agree! I watch LeBron play basketball because I like how he plays. I don't need him to be my friend too.

[elementally morale]

Do you know how many athletes on Twitter have done the exact same thing a million times over?

People using twitter over 20-25 makes me question their mental state. :oldlol:

Had someone told me in 1997 that the biggest hype over the Internet in 2010 would be sending less than 200 characters in plain text and be able to read when someone takes a shiit... I most certainly wouldn't have believed that.

Well, of 10-15 year olds, maybe. But adults?

[oh the horror]

The thing is, how exactly is him posting someone saying he had a good game or a link to an article him portraying a fool? Do you know how many athletes on Twitter have done the exact same thing a million times over?


My point was, that now that he has already made himself out to be an "ass" in most people's eyes.....ANYTHING he does now is under fire.


Dude can post about how he went for a walk, and went shopping, and people will now jump down his throat for that as well.



By his actions over the past several years, he attracts all the under-belly of society.



I mean look at other stars, or politicians who've done some questionable things over the years. George Bush while in office, couldnt even sneeze, without the media/people taking a shit all over him. Its the same with Obama...

Hell, Michael Jackson couldnt even show his face for years without people speculating on what was WRONG with him.




When you build up a tarnished reputation, people are going to shit on you, even for the silliest of reasons.


THAT is where he is at now.




And I agree, some of the things people hate on him for are ridiciulous. But lets face it....some of the things he does is ridiculous too.....but i think some are blurring the ridiciulous actions of his, with the not so ridiculous, and he does get unfairly bashed for stupid reasons now.

[Kurosawa0]

He posts it so the people that follow him can read it. In theory, they would be his fans. He thinks that he had a good game, which he did. Is he supposed to pretend like he didn't?

[Noah Rose]

First off, that wasn't Oprah. It was her magazine, but she didn't write it.

She didn't write them, since all the men in that list were written by other writers from other magazines, but it was OPRAH who put that list together for her own magazine.

So this is coming from Oprah.

[CLE[216]]

OMG...I can see now why he posted that Oprah.com article...


But the backlash was pure hypocrisy. The media and fans alike had furnished a seat for LBJ at the center of the world, then seemed irked when he took it. Worse, the one-note vilification ignored the nobility of LeBron's move: He took less money to win championships, the sports world's ultimate selfless act. Consider the $6 million in ad revenue generated by The Decision that went to charitable causes, and suddenly the picture looks a whole lot less sinister.

Thank God Ali wasn't doing his thing in days of the internet. No one could've handled it. :oldlol:



I think the t-shirts and such came at a time when people found Lebron to be a bit quizzical in the first place.....


People were like...."ooooookay, this guy kind of seems like an attention whore asshole...but we're not sure quite what to make of him, and of it"


People were questioning if the dude cared about team, or his own personal game.....he would refer to himself in third person, and it kind of threw some off...



Then, he came with these ridiculous shirts, about his MVP, and checking his stats, and it was just ridiculous to most people....Then you had the questions of this dude quitting on his team, etc etc....



So, the combination of all of these things, mixed with his little one hour special of him bouncing out on Cleveland, and people now, are just completely turned off, to the point of ripping this guy at any chance they can get.



Its progressively gotten worse for him over the years, but mostly by his actions....not by some wild imaginary fluke. He brought this out initially, and now its almost its own entity.

i just sent him a tweet, not sure how it works though since it's not showing up on his page. it's on my homepage and on mine though...

@KingJames Yeah great game, LeBron. This idiot's trying harder in the preaseason than he did gm5 against the Celtics. #DelonteGettinAtUrMoms
You're doing it wrong. :facepalm

You're supposed to KISS his BALLS first, otherwise he will not Re-Tweet your message.

[Kurosawa0]

But for LeBron, his STATS for a ****ing pre-season game matters and needs Re-Tweeting for everyone to see!

:oldlol:

That negates him having a good game? All he said was "Thanks. Just trying to get better." I know, how horrible!

[BallsOut]

And he's right.

I have a little time so I'm gonna dance with you bro.


But the backlash was pure hypocrisy. The media and fans alike had furnished a seat for LBJ at the center of the world, then seemed irked when he took it.

Lebron put himself out there. He set the whole decision thing up and chose to go through with it. He could've just announced his decision quietly to the Cavs and moved on. Dude chose not to and do it publicly on television with the donation to charity as his scapegoat.



Worse, the one-note vilification ignored the nobility of LeBron's move: He took less money to win championships, the sports world's ultimate selfless act.

False. Lebron didn't take less money at all. He was traded. I don't know why people keep saying this. He got exactly the same amount as he would have if he stayed in Cleveland. You could even argue that he would get less in Cleveland since Florida has no state income tax.



Consider the $6 million in ad revenue generated by The Decision that went to charitable causes, and suddenly the picture looks a whole lot less sinister.

Once again, the $6 million revenue generated can not hide Lebron's huge ego. We all knew the man did this for himself, to make sure the whole world saw him for the attention wh0re that he is.

And all of that is bad... why? Honestly, the Cavs fans had a right to be disappointed, not angry. Expecting him to stay out of loyalty was ridiculous.

The TV show deserved nothing more than a roll of the eyes. Yeah, it was in bad taste, but it was still just a TV show.

Lebron just tries to hard. First all the quotes like "I can't defer. I'm never in defer mode" and "I can't hold back because my leadership skills won't allow me", now quoting a hugely biased and inaccurate article from Oprah's magazine to make it appear as though he was the good guy all along.

All this for what? To try and repair his heavily damaged image and reputation. I'm not buying it. Dude just needs to shut up about himself, give it a rest, play and hope everyone eventually forgets.

This is a case for him to chill, take note of his team, and yes...he has to defer to teammates, because now he has good ones, that also would like to touch and see the ball as well.

Its funny too, because watching them play, Ive seen a few instances, where he is stuck in his old mode of playing ball, where he goes one on 4-5 defenders, meanwhile he has capable teammates standing around.


He has to evolve a bit, change it up for this team he is currently on. It'll be interesting to see if he switches it up as time goes on, and they all play together, because like ive said....im of the opinion that if he continues to play that style of basketball, then Miami suddenly becomes very capable of losing more than they should.

I know LeBron is the but of jokes for all his haters alike, who enjoy partaking in the buffoonery....And LeBron has very much so proven through out the past few months, he isn't NEARLY as media savvy as many once thought.

But did anyone actually see the intial tweet that propelled LeBron to send that out?

He actually retweeted it.



RyanOutrich @KingJames continuation to my last tweet, u r a big nosed big lipped bug eyed ******. ur greedy, u try to hide ur ghettoness.

Now, you can dislike dude all you want. But if he's been subject to that type of sh*t all through out his timeline (which I'm sure he has), can't fault dude for venting. Amazing how wreckless someone can talk behind a PC.

[BallsOut]

Hey man don't turn this into a racial thing. Next thing you know Go Getter is gonna come in here and take up the next 5 pages talking about it.

[ImmortalD24]

I think the main reason people outside of Cleveland have disdain for him now is

1. The teasing.. having GM's / owners coming to him when he already had his mind up to play for the Heat. Wasted time and gave fans a false sense of hope.

2. Then he let it come crashing down with the Decision 1 hour long special on ESPN. (I didn't watch it btw.. found out hours later about his decision .. and I honestly couldn't believe it.. i'll leave that for #3)


3. He chose the path of least resistance by teaming up with the 2nd best player in the league AND an all-star caliber big.

I am telling you right now.. Nobody in their right mind would've been upset had he went to New York (which was rumored for ages and ages.. most on the outside expected him to) and played with Amare or Bosh.. Nobody.


Sure he's done more foolish stuff he's done since.. but those are the main problems people have/had with LeBron.


To the people who hate LeBron for leaving Cleveland.. He owes Cleveland NOTHING.. not a damn thing. Had LeBron not been as great of a player he was/is, nobody would've cared.

I just checked the newspaper today and read that a few players got waived by the Rockets.. You think owners care for them? The bottom line is money.. LeBron is an elite player, one of the best to ever play the game.. he's money maker and has earned every dime he got paid by the owner. He generated a lot of money for the Cavaliers and the city of Cleveland for years.. At one point, Cleveland was in the top 10 most valuable franchises on forbes. He's done plenty for that team/franchise.. and doesn't owe Dan Gilbert squat.

[Noah Rose]

@ahsenat thanks sis! Love you




@LeftLaneLegend yes sir! Lol




@rnorwood5 yes sir! Something light


LeBron especially KNOWS the difference between "REPLY" and "RE-TWEET" feature.

[2LeTTeRS]

I've seriously never seen the hate for a player get to the point that any action he does can be painted in a negative light. This is amazing to me. To be able to create this much "heat" overnight is going to make LeBron an even richer man. His fans will watch because they love him and everybody else will watch because they want to see him flat on his face. As an aspiring agent I'm taking notes.

Thanks for the train wreck guy.

[Foster5k]

Lebron could donate all his money to a charity, rescue a drowning kid, put out a house fire, and save a family's life; and he would still be hated.

I can't even hate on this guy. I don't even know him. He just seems like the average guy who wants money, fame, and power. I can't hate on that.

[2LeTTeRS]

What do you expect when your accused of raping a girl? When those accusations come out you're destined to be criticized. Especially when you admit to having sex with her out of wedlock (which to some people is a huge deal) and the manuscripts are released where you basically throw you're team-mate and the leagues most popular player under the bus.

And also at that time Kobe had a bigger core of defenders then than LeBron has now. I think a lot of that was simply due to the size of the Lakers fanbase, and the fact that Bron left his home-town team but the point still remains.

I only defend him as a player though because after all he is the best player on my favorite team but as a person Kobe is an ass also.

I don't always defend Kobe either. Believe me I bashed Kobe when he was threatening to leave us to play for Chicago or the Clippers back in 2007 and I bashed him and Shaq back in '03/'04 for that childish feud and even earlier this past season I criticized him for him forcing too many shots and said his shot selection needs improvement.

The LeBron apologists are just pathetic though they defend everything he does him like they are Gloria James and only see him through their rose-tint glasses and think he can do no wrong.

Bringing back elementally morale's point you realize that in 2004 there were fans on this site defending Kobe for cheating on his wife and being accused of rape right? They made Katelyn Faber out to be the world's biggest whore and personal details of her life and pictures of here were released all over the Internet. Everyone knew that she had another man's sperm on her panties the day she had sex with Kobe.

People defend people they admire. It happens in all walks of life, and its no different with LeBron.

The difference is though people are saying Kobe actually raped that girl without any proof or even any hard evidence, the sexual assault accusations are as ridiculous as the claims that Michael Jordan's father was killed because of his gambling debts. That's isn't really necessarily defending someone like they way LeBron apologists are defending him like he is actually a member of their family or something. We are calling out people for accusing at man of being a convicted rapist when he was found to be innocent.

Are you really comparing morons defending all of Lebron's foolish and childish antics to people defending Kobe because people were saying he is a rapist without any proof or even any evidence whatsoever?

What do you mean no proof? He admitted he had sex with her and she told him no. That's more than you have in the ordinary rape case. The thing was just dropped because she got tired of cooperating with the whole ordeal and took his money in exchange for dropping the charges. Happens all the time.

Oh and not trying to insinuate that Kobe raped her, and if I was his lawyer/agent I would have advised Kobe to do exactly what he did. Going through a trial on this would have been horrible for his image even if he wasn't found guilty.

To the people who hate LeBron for leaving Cleveland.. He owes Cleveland NOTHING.. not a damn thing. Had LeBron not been as great of a player he was/is, nobody would've cared.

I just checked the newspaper today and read that a few players got waived by the Rockets.. You think owners care for them? The bottom line is money.. LeBron is an elite player, one of the best to ever play the game.. he's money maker and has earned every dime he got paid by the owner. He generated a lot of money for the Cavaliers and the city of Cleveland for years.. At one point, Cleveland was in the top 10 most valuable franchises on forbes. He's done plenty for that team/franchise.. and doesn't owe Dan Gilbert squat.


are you serious... he did owe us somthing
we did every single thing he asked our organization to do for. i'm not saying that it means he had to stay. but he 100% owed our organization some respect. after all we did for him he refuses to talk to our management and locks us down for 3 years with he shitty contracts. he had to chance to bring bosh to cleveland but refused to tell bosh that he was gonna stay in cleveland. he could have a better team in cleveland then miami if he would have stayed and talked to bosh.

anyway you can't say he didnt owe us anything cause he totally disrespected the entire management and fanbase by not talking to them throughout the process essentially locking us down througout the offseason.

Hahaahaha 9 pages of people argueing about Lebron after he made 1 tweet, thats how much influence he has on all of you(includin me). I find it sad how people hate someone they don't even know in real life.

If anything Haters are the insecure and needy of spotlight because it is the only way they know how to get noticed.

There's a difference between hating someone and laughing at him for being retarded and trying too hard to make a fool of him self.

For an example of hating, see raptorfans_07's numerous 1000 word hate essays in any thread involving Kobe.

For an example of the latter, see some of Lebron's recent sayings below:


"Sometimes the coaches tell me to be selfish, but my game won’t let me be selfish.”


"I can't defer, I'm never in defer mentality."


"A person like myself always needs a great sidekick"


"I just can't hold it back because my leadership skills won't allow me"

Laughing at someone is hating. Laughing with someone is a different story. Get ****ed. You sound jealous of Lebron man no offense.

So if a dude was dancing on the street and an ice cream truck ran by and hit him, and I laughed at him. That's hating? :roll:

LeBron is motivating himself. When LeBron is angry and motivated he played the best basketball in his entire NBA Career.

Come on Ballouts. I know you are better than that. Will you still hate LBJ if he wins an NBA title next year?

[AznTacoLover]

my gosh this guy :facepalm :oldlol:

Push him back to the zoo.

It's kind of hilarious. When you see a new thread and read it and start at page one, you see something civilized... an actual discussion, but if you skip that and go directly to the last page you see the 'true colors.' And it's funny how every thread that goes over a certain amount of pages 'devolves' into a versus thread or a hate thread.

That being said, LeBron will get plenty of hate when they don't win the ring this year... I hope he's ready for it.

[ILLsmak]

Basically with the coming of twitter, facebook, etc....we now get to actually be made aware of the fragile ego of some of these men.



Back in the day, one has to rely on word of mouth, or stories that we may have heard around the way concerning the behavior and thought process of some of our favorite stars...now, the shit is all up in our faces.

There's always the 'hacker' excuse lol...

He's a walking hard on, dildo, aka dick.

People were already hating on LeBron when he finished 2nd in the MVP Voting in the 2005-06 NBA Season.

[Peteballa]

interesting... so he likes the role of the Villain. im excited

People hate on me, too... lol. People hate on everyone... but it's only bothersome when it's true. When he loses with the Miami team, it's gonna be more than just hate it's gonna be the truth and it's gonna be serious.

He's setting himself up for that, and that's why it's stupid to talk shit.

Rule: Talk shit after it's over, never before... because anything can happen and you end up eating your words.

[PowerGlove]

Are people seriously criticizing him for this?

[Angelsaurus Rex]

Overreact my balls. And NO ONE HERE is "catching feelings"



If anyone is catching feelings here, its Lebron.


That fool needs this attention. Most of us DONT CARE. But it is annoying to constantly be bombarded by this guy crying out for some type of boost all the time.


Its like the little pain in the ass brother, that you generally dont pay too much attention to, yet he is constantly up your ass, trying to annoy you, in order to get you to care about him in some shape or form.

You're obviously overreacting, and you obviously DO CARE. LeBron's retweets was just him having fun, did you see the things that some of the people said, ****ing hillarious. It wasn't him "feeding his ego" or whatever, he's just being funny.
