Yahoo!: LeBron's unbearable attitude with Team USA and Nike's warning...

[QUOTE=Steve212]Would this have came out if he stayed in Cleveland?[/QUOTE]



No but I also think it wouldn't have come out had he not done that epic fail of a special either. Which is the real problem here.

That being said I don't care for LeBron as much as the next person but honestly I can't really cheer on the media for piling on when in reality they knew this and covered for him to begin with. Now they want to flip the script. Typical build them up then tear them down.

But difference is LeBron let himself be torn down to begin with.

He sold his Bron charm for $5 at a garage sale in Akron. :lol

Look who wrote the article. HUGE Kobe homer right there, does Kobe fluff pieces once per week during the season. Not surprising that he'd want to tar Lebron in any way possible. In fact, before I even clicked on the link, I said to myself "I bet this is Adrian Woj-a-whatever". Seriously, I knew it'd be him.

For everything the Bulls tried to sell

[QUOTE=game3524]You haven't been following the Bulls then, Rose doesn't like to shoot first, he isn't comfortable in that role. Vinny had to convince him to take more shots, the whole notion he was upset that Lebron would take his shots his away is absurd.[/QUOTE]


honestly i've watched the bulls a LOT. you aren't going to tell me what isn't true. to say Rose doesn't like to shoot is like saying AI doesn't like to shoot. there is no way you can seriously say Rose is a pass first guard, or even thinks of himself that way given the way he plays. just no way. thats absurd.

[QUOTE=game3524]For everything the Bulls tried to sell

Cleveland has seven years of Lebron acting like a tool (and them rewarding it which they probably won't mention). This stuff is goign to be flowing out for quite a while.

It's just sad that people care about what LeBron was like 4-6 years ago. Why should anyone be surprised a 19 year old and 21 year old doesn't have great leadership skills?

I guess if you're a dumbass or hater, you would make a big deal of it and create a thread.

I never said he was a pass first PG, I said he is not comfortable taking a ton of shots, that is why it is stupid to say he was afraid Lebron would take shots away from him, he would most likely welcome it.

Truth vs Homerism

Henry Abbott = huge LeBron homer

[quote]Team USA way back in Team USA, Mike Krzyzewski's coaching staff -- D'Antoni, Nate McMillan and Jim Boeheim -- were asked to vote on which players to cut first to get down to the 15-player traveling roster. They ended up cutting Shawn Marion, Adam Morrison and Luke Ridnour.

But, as I reported in 2006, three out of four members of that staff voted to make LeBron James the first player cut. It has never been made public which coach voted which way, and Mike D'Antoni would not comment on the topic now. [/quote]

He is 25 and he still apparently acts like this, really just look how he handled himself with "The Decision".

How about this over-looked part of the article...

[QUOTE]The franchise was in complete upheaval, and Gilbert had the Cavaliers trying everything possible to impress a non-responsive James. The Cavaliers star had started to fully distance himself from the organization. He refused to get on the phone and discuss his future with Michigan State

[QUOTE=game3524]He is 25 and he still apparently acts like this, really just look how he handled himself with "The Decision".[/QUOTE]

What he does off the court has no reflection of his leadership in the locker room and on the court.

And there is no evidence that he is a poor leader right now - in fact everything I have seen or read from people around him is that he's a GREAT leader at this point in his career, at 25 years old.

Ripping Lebron is the trendy thing to do right now. He was the same with Kobe a couple years ago: [url]http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-kobe052907[/url]

Haven't even read article yet, but this guy Adrian Woj HATES Lebron James, so of course, I was not surprised to see him as author.

Now I'll read it......:lol
