King James with the dagger!

[Hman]

seriously. what has he said that you consider racist? There are tons of n people who says things that are insensitive and I'm sure you still support them. Trump , just to name one.

Wik you're smart so don't play ignorant when it comes to him and all of the racist things he has said & done.

Stop sticking your head in the sand because it's him.

If you support a racist....then you are a racist

And Lebron James is as racist as they come from any color

The nail in the coffin is when someone says "They".

"They use it against us".

Lumping an entire race into one category.

What if a white person said "They all loot & kill each other"

You know as good as I do that when you use that word "They", it's a racist azz person

[stevenash]

A poll conducted by Yahoo News/YouGov back in March showed that 34.5% of respondents have watched less NBA as the community continue with their social justice campaigns.

[vitterd]

Just don’t get how some of you can like Lebron. I get vitter...guy has trashed the military before so I’m not surprised he licks Lebrons balls...but the guy is one of the biggest scum bags on the face of this earth and given his comments on the police force, there’s no excuse to pull for that guy. He is the reason so many people have stopped watching the NBA.

I caught this Scumbag lying about his service and lying about my posts. He’s stealing valor.

Lebron has never been in trouble with the law and is a great family man who gives back to his community. Respect to the greatest of all time, King James.

[vitterd]

He has a voice to spout off just like everyone else. It's your choice to listen. The NBA is not going to silence him, they love this shit. It's like free money every time he says something white America disagrees with. Honestly I don't even think he's all that controversial. Most of the posters here have typed way more repugnant shit than what he did. I guess if the Lakers don't win another chip I might start caring but until then it's just noise.

Very true.

[gauchojake]

They love it? Their ratings last year in the playoffs were worse than the Last Dance documentary LOL I don’t think they’re loving it.

Athletes are paid to play sports, not play politics. Obviously they have a first amendment right, but don’t go crying to mama when you alienate the NBA fan base the way Lebron has. And don’t go crying about respect Lebron. Obviously he can speak his mind, but we can change the channel, and most of America has. Saw a poll where he’s one of the most disliked athletes in the modern era. You may still like him, but you are in the small minority my friend.

NBA is HUGH globally
Ratings up this year
New TV deal will be triple the old one

Trust me they love it

I don't particularly like LeBron except that he's a Laker and I am a Lakers fan. Had they not won last year, maybe that would have changed. I definitely don't listen to his political takes but then again I don't listen to Carushow's either. I just watch the games and if I bet on them, hopefully collect some dough.

[stevenash]

Now for the record, I don't hate on LBJ.
His work ethic is unmatched.
I read a piece a few months back where three athletes (Brady, Russ Wilson, Lebron James) invest more in themselves (diet, workout equipment, etc.) than any other athletes.
I like the fact James will go to war for his son, I place a premium on family welfare, good on him.
And James contributes money to charity. good on him again.

There's plenty I dislike.
Like his ego.
I have trouble with a self proclaimed 'King James'
Come on dude, get over yourself, you aren't a king.

The pregame powder ritual.
Doesn't help his game, it's not necessary, it's stupid, and he's not promoting Johnson and Johnson baby powder either.
It's just a 'hey, look at me" show. And the cameramen show it because the producers direct the cameramen to show it to us who don't really want to see it.
HHH spitting water in the WWE as a pre match ritual, pretty cool, NBA is not the WWE
(actually it is, the only difference is the WWE admits it's shit is rigged, NBA pretends the games are real)

He's not as clutch as you think he is.
It seems to me he bricks a free throw late in a close game.

I can go on and on.
He quit on Cleveland, he's a flopper. he cries over non fouls way too often.
"The Decision" was aa disgusting display of self promotion.
Jordan Crawford dunked on his shit and James ordered Nike to lose that videotape because of embarrassment.
He's the king of back handed compliments.....

By the way Pippen was the selfish one on that Bulls teams, no Jordan.
Jordan has more walk off buzzer beaters than James and Lebron has played in what? a million more games.

I'm not saying James is evil, he's not Hitler, he has redeeming qualities.
There's just way too much there to dislike.
And it has nothing to do with skin color, don't even call me out on that.

[The General]

Best NBA player ever but also best puzzy NBA player ever.

[stevenash]

Best NBA player ever.

Ever?
I don't know, that's a bit of a stretch, but I respect your opinion and accept your opinion.
Top five. Yeah

And that's why I respect him, he made himself into one of the best ever.

But for reason stated above (and other's I didn't mention) it's hard for me to tonally respect him.

[navyblue81]

Best NBA player ever but also best puzzy NBA player ever.

He’s not even top 10.

[vitterd]

I believe Lebron is the best ever. Guys don’t like him for personal reasons but if I’m drafting a team of players all in their prime. He’s my 1 pick.

[vitterd]

He’s not even top 10.

Idiot.

[JIBBBY]

King James is gonna need to hit more of those amazing shots to beat the Suns. That's all I know going forward. Lakers still need to wake up on the offensive end and shift gears for a full game.

[navyblue81]

Idiot.

Dude go away. All you do is obsess with me.
I’m shipping out of US June 18. You won’t have to deal with me for a couple of years. Now f—- off.

I think I saw lakers -300 against Suns.

[JIBBBY]

I think I saw lakers -300 against Suns.

Lakers should not be the favorites going in. They still have work to do as a team.

They got lucky in the 4th quarter against a lessor team in the Warriors and they needed a miracle shot by Lebron to win that game last night at home in the final seconds.

Lakers were down most of that game and their offense was clearly sputtering. Can't do that against the Suns in Phoenix.

Series?
No, Heritage has -145/+125 right now.

Oh my bad. I didn’t look at anything but espn last night posted lakers -300 when they were talking about this series. I stand corrected.

No worries, I'm good for two brain farts a week myself.
All good.

Mayan will you be running with him? If so I may consider voting for him.

[stevenash]

Mayan is like caviar.
An acquired taste.

[Thrilla]

[ThaTopMoron]

Oh you would have heard about it eventually because that attention whore was praising himself afterwards claiming the shot was even harder than ppl think because he was supposedly seeing 3 baskets when he took it

Never have we seen an athlete begging for notability as we have with this guy lol.

He's just a piece of crap all around.

A racist..a race baiter.....a liar who makes up stories....and always proclaiming himself as the greatest

after lakers didn't have to face clippers and got to be 4 to 1 favorites in finals vs heat who then got injured so lakers won in 6... he was crying out loud to the mic

"i just want my damn respect"

then don't flail on the ground after a semi hard foul with hands to ur forehead like you just got shot 5 times

[unde0087]

Mayan is like caviar.
An acquired taste.

I might not always agree with the guy, hell most of the time I don't, but guy is one of my favorite posters. He is good shit.

[stevenash]

He is good shit.

If you like shit.

Kidding, kidding, Mayan has a good heart, that goes a real long way with me.

The king bringing in those ratings!!

Curry/James matchup was a guaranteed ratings grabber.
Networks, sponsors, NBA, all parties needed that.

Yep. I tried to say this before.....the right matchup will bring the ratings. People can say they hate LBJ all they want but a Lebron vs Curry, KD and a few others will get eyes.

Ppl can bet and not watch

That's what most of us do

Now I DID used to follow & wager on it religiously.
And with much success (all documented)

But well before Queen James started turning ppl off, the game starting changing too much until the point it's at now where it's just street ball with no D.

All of them acting as if each & every night it's an all star game where they just allow each other to score at will.

It's a total joke and not interesting in any way anymore.
