#36She is. LeBron is phony and transparent. He also doesn't have the drive to win championships relative to the elite players he is compared to. He is more concerned with his image and reputation. Now he can go back to being a "savior," and give his wife what she wants in the process. I'm sure she wears the pants in that family anyway.Comment -

#37Agree with all that but don't think his wife had as much as Shari thinks to do with it. He can make her happy in the process like you said, but he does what makes him look best, like you said.Originally posted by No coincidencesShe is. LeBron is phony and transparent.

#38u do realize he joined the cleveland cavs right?
u all acting like he just joined the OKC thunder or the LA clippers
the cavs are shit, i dont care how many #1 picks they have
if u were to line up the teams in the east in order championship potential, the cavs would be near the bottom
im gonna give the man some credit
of all the teams that were on his list, the cavs were by far the worst
just look at the roster, its not that goodComment -

#39I think Kyrie is extremely overrated but the Cavs do have three, now four number one picks on their team. Along with two number four picks...now that doesn't mean shit but they have talent and are very young. Some of those guys may not be good now but bring LeBron in and he can make them all look that much better.
I hope they keep Dion around, he's like a younger Wade and LBJ can bring out his full potential. Dion is a baller, he will only up his game when given the chance. He has the attitude to make it.Comment -

#40Well it is true he would have zero rings but COMMONOriginally posted by SportsMushroomthey both were the stars in their teams and both failed to lead them to a ring, they needed each other to get that ring so as far as im concerned james is not a better player than bosh, and bosh did bail james out in many games in the finals, without bosh james would have zero ringsComment -

#44How do you know he has side pieces.Originally posted by shari91If you look back to stuff Savannah said and posted, I'd bet she had 92% to do with it. Even with his side pieces, once she got pregnant again the ball was in her court. She never wanted to be in Miami at all and he never felt at home there so it wasn't as hard of a sell or shock for him to go back to Cleveland as some are making it out to be. The ring that matters in that relationship is the one on HER finger, not his.Comment -

#46I hope Rae Carruth gets out in 2018 and buries Lebron in a trunk somewhere. NBA is a penetrating joke. I can't believe all these articles saying what a great dude he is to go back and his maturity etc, listening to the Cleveland radio talk shows these people that are so called fans happy he's coming back, its disgusting. If I were from that area I'd tell him to take his ass back to miami and show my support for the young kids they have going in that organization.Comment -

The media is making him out to be a hero because he's going home, when in reality he's quitting on another flat team.
We're supposed to respect him when he ditched cleveland and promised someone else longterm championships? Then bails on them once the heat "dynasty" was exposed? ... I'm not buying it
I like lebron as a player but this is the reason why I'll never respect him as a man.Comment -

#49Notice how he just got slaughtered in the Finals by old man Tim Duncan and no one cares...no one even cares that the Spurs won...it's all speculation talk about LeBron...
LeBron continuing his pussified sellout mentality...as he has done for many years now...and no one cares...
By the time his career is over, the media will have convinced everyone that he's the greatest player in the history of sports. The brainwashing will be fully complete.Comment -

Don't get why people get so amped up either way about him or any other player for that matter switching teams. He saw a better situation for himself and he took it both times. Don't know how that makes him a hero a villain, a coward, or quitter. Every other profession people would look down on you for not taking the better opportunity. Instead of having to carry an old team every night for the next couple of years, he gets to play and build with a group of young talented guys, at home. Good for him.
Do gotta say, hope whoever is on his pr team, gets a nice bonus. Told people exactly what they wanted to hear.Comment -

how is it "manly" to stay on a failing team??
why does management get the only say in ur career?
the dude exercised his right as a free agent, whats wrong with that?
he moved from a title contender and top shelf franchise like the heat
to the exact opposite in the cavs
lebron isnt exactly front running with the cavs, they suckComment -

Cavs are the 4th or 5th best team in the league.. and Im being generous. Maybe they can be like the Bills and lose 4 championships in a row. They will never beat any team that comes out of the West.

#70Hit the nail on the head. Used up some all stars and hall of famers for a great 4 year run. Those guys got old so he jumped ship again, this time for an (potentially) even better/younger big 3. Lebron James is a phony who will sell out anything and anyone.Originally posted by greenhippoHeat were beatdown in the finals. Your team as constructed was fukkin wrecked and could only get worse going forward. Instead of sticking it out to rebuild the team he bolts to the best possible scenario. The fact it happens to be Cleveland should matter zero, if this were the Cavs team from 10-11 there is NO way he'd be going back. Now everyone says it's 100% because he loves the city and all this whore shit. Now I'm a Houston fan like most know so him leaving gives us Bosh, I'm happy. But what in the hell is with all this love now ?Comment
