He pretty much had to do this. I'm not saying he had a PR guy write it or anything, but he's definitely attracted a lot of negative attention for his antics. Even if his intention this whole time was just to compete, the impression it left on a lot of people wasn't a good one.
Dude needs to charge his phone

Stephenson thought he was an Alpha but was humbled to a beta
inb4 internet/instagram wasn't invented yet

Considering the circumstances and things that happened, I'd say that tweet is good and classy. :applause: :applause:

Guy's 23, and he will learn, hopefully. Love his game, not his antics. Can't stand him, but he and West were the only guys on the Pacers who showed up tonight.

Couldn't agree more.
He hurt his brand, I think teams will definitely think twice about going after lance. I'd be really skeptical to give him $$$, as I could easily see him going all JR Smith like

Didn't see that coming. Good on Lance

There are just as many that support him as much as there are folks who hate him......On twitter, on basketball forums, social media, its probably 50/50...You've plenty of folks on twitter who are supporting him for going right after the King...
Lance even acknowledge that he knows he wasn't getting in Lebron's head....He pretty much admitted he was just trying to win...
[QUOTE]For all his efforts to distract James in this series, Stephenson conceded Friday morning:

I dont think this tweet is going to recoup the dollars he lost because of his behavior.

Pretty sure he won't lose any money........You dudes are going WAY, WAY overboard.......The same way many fans loved the fight he showed and the way he refused to back down........I guarantee you there's at least 15 gm's in the league that would love him on their team....Its not that serious.....The Rasheed Wallace's and Dennis Rodmans of the world can be signed, pretty sure someone will sign Lance, probably the Pacers......
Secretly around the league, I guarantee you other teams were rooting for the Pacers..They did not want to see Miami win again....And lets be real...Lance doesn't have some long history of these "antics"...They really only came out against Lebron and lets be honest...there were probably man opposing players and GM's that loved it..
Tell me the Thunder wouldn't rather have him alongside Westbrook and Durant instead of Sefalosha.....3 guys in the lineup that don't back down and play with immense heart....Thats just one example...The Bulls would be another...he'd fit right in with that team.....The Brooklyn Nets, his hometown....come on now.....You just need talent and potential...That will get you signed in any league pretty much....

I think Lance has feelings for LeBron James, a la Paul George.

hell yea dude wants to win and his ceiling is super high...he could become a star in this league..just depends on how bad he wants it but he has all the tools...pacers just need a damn pg or paul george has to become the primary ball handler like lebron and then get a scrappy guard who plays like chalmers for the heat...just shoot threes and play solid defense. but this pacers team needs some tweaking and i hope it starts soon or they are gonna see their team not make it past the eastern semis next season especially with a healthy drose..healthy nets and a better raptors team..oh and the wizards

I'm starting to like this guy. Lance and West were the only ones that showed some heart. And I genuinely believe Lance has a lot of respect for Bronze. Bronze also respects Lance's fight. That comes with the territory of being a top level competitor.

Can somebody paste Larry's comments on Lance? I thought Larry would support Lance since he called the whole team soft in 2012. I understand he might not want to do that publicly, but in my opinion Lance should be getting a new contract without any problems.

I hate this nikka for what he was doing this series, but I wouldnt hesitate to let my hate go after this tweet is ALL he did was try to wind up Lebron.
But what he did to Norris was unforgivable. He straight up smashed him in the face the f*ckin cvnt.

Disagree I think he was going for the ball honest mistake

Of course it was........its a just a few Heat fans who keep whining about it....:confusedshrug: Like he would just smack the sh*t out of Cole for no reason......People are really taking this Lebron/Lance stuff to heart...acting like Lance does this stuff all the time......Typical knee jerk reactions....

Oh please you are deluded if you believe that. Tell me the last time you saw two players in that loose ball situation and one getting smashed in the face?
Everything that led up to it, the incident, and his reaction after all pointed to him clearly meaning it.
He's leaving it out on the court. What's the problem?
I can't remember such an overreaction to a player's "antics". I can't remember when his own organization i.e. teammates, coaches, and even the GM had such a problem publicly with this type of stuff. Its ridiculous. If it wasn't for this dude's competitive spirit, Pacers are probably swept this series. And Bird is such a hypocrite for all the trash talk he used to do. This is a hell of alot better then Paul George being distracted by being the internet joke that he is, and Roy Hibbert being a bitch going through whatever he was going through. Let him go. Plenty of other teams would embrace him and his competitive fire.

He basically did a Richard Sherman and is now working to reverse it...

Me too... He's got that Ron Artest aura about him. a little unpredictable, with tons of effort

I'm not even talking about that. Just the media and the league in general. For his own teammates/organization to not have his back kinda exemplifies all the issues they've had all season.

This. Although tbh, i feel like larry bird probably told him not worry about what the media is saying in private and that he liked his aggression. Probably just told him to stop in public for pr reasons. Either way I feel like he's gone tbh.

This :applause: People acting like bitches everywhere after a player leaves it all out on the court (I mean, this wasn't even Bill Laimbeer trying to injury somebody, or something...), ***** ass generation... No need for that by Lance either, someone probably told him to do it, I don't know but I didn't "like it".
