CHICAGO -- The Rev. Jesse Jackson says Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert sees LeBron James as a "runaway slave" and that his comments after the forward decided to join the Miami Heat put the player in danger.
Shortly after James announced his decision Thursday night, Gilbert fired off an incendiary letter to Cleveland's fans, ripping the 25-year-old and promising to deliver a title before James wins one. He called James' decision "cowardly" and later told the Associated Press he believes James quit during a handful of Cavaliers playoff games.
Jackson says Gilbert's comments "personify a slave master mentality" and the owner should face a "challenge" from the league.
Messages were left Sunday night seeking comment from Gilbert, the Cavaliers, James and the NBA.

Those two are always the first two in front of a camera for. A photo op but you NEVER, and I repeat NEVER, hear them come back and apologize when they are wrong like with Tawana Brawley and Duke University rape allegation cases.

I'm so glad I'm not black because JJ makes me sick.

[Tree Rollins]

Dan Gilbert spends tens and tens of millions of dollar on Lebron, and spends hundreds of millions to try and make Lebron happy, and he hires a black coach and employs tons of black people, but he's a racist? rightttttttttttttttt

Guys like Jesse Jackson are the reason racism exists.

[urge2kill]

Jesse Jackson is as racist as they come. Can't stand that guy.

[exstatman]

Pretty sure Americans of any color would work for those "slave" wages.

There's a lot of money in inventing race issues that aren't there apparently. Can you imagine if George Bush or a prominent white said something similar about a prominent black businessman?
