    Honestly I don't think he reads anything, not to say he's illiterate but unless its an approved interview I've found that most players don't read blogs or listen to talking heads on tv tear down their game. Most of those guys rarely read the comments on their own post on social media. James behaves as if he's impervious to criticism because if he didn't he wouldn't be mentally tough enough to play in the nba, he took a **** on himself in game six. He celebrated the end of the season at the stip club and now he's in Arizona starting his offseason, he's locked in

    In my opinion, I would pursue James Johnson and Gallo before touching Ibaka.

    I'll have to disagree with this just bc these players are fully aware of most of the talk that goes in and around the league, especially when it's about them and/or their situations. These guys are sports fans just like us. They know what's going on. Now they might not dwell on it as much as say us fans, but they're definitely not ignoring it completely, especially the negative stuff. They just brush it off and turn the other way a lot easier because at the end of the day their priority is themselves and those around them they feel are important.

    I agree, I didn't say he's not aware, he knows exactly what ppl are saying about him because how could he not but he doesn't seek it out. He might throw on sportscenter after a workout (now that his poor performance has been overshadowed by LeBron) and hear himself referenced as a superstar that disappeared in a big moments, he's fully aware of his reputation but like you said it doesn't keep him up at night.

    Yeah, maybe we'll offer Gortat $3,500,000 a year.......and a Chinese shoe deal.*

    *As someone with high arched narrow feet can attest, wearing a bad shoe is no bueno.
