Live Chat Thread: LeBron's "Decision" Show (UPDATE: LeBron is going to Miami)

5 year contract guys

 

These guys already had their minds made up before the freeagent process began. its cool they strung all these teams along like this because the Rockets benifited it from New York and then we also stayed pat while veryone else geared or gutted their franchise to get these guys who thought they all had a chance when they really didnt. i dont care that they did that. I am glad because the Rockets benifited the most besides the Heat so far. Chicago got a good consolation prize from it, Clevalnd lost out, Toronto, New York got screwed, New Jersey didnt do good, and of course Miami won out.

 

lebron forgot to mention the Rockets when he was talking about championship teams

 

All they need to do now is sign TMac and Shaq for the Vet minimum.

C - Shaq / FA / 2nd Rd Pick
PF - Bosh / 2nd Rd Pick
SF - LeBron / 2nd Rd Pick
SG - Tmac / Dwade
PG - DWade / Chalmers

Imagine playing with this lineup in 2k? Unstoppable.

 

wow already burning jersery lol

 

awesome!

burning their jersey.

can't wait to burn yaos jersey and send him packing back to China.

I like to sleep nude in my tmac jersey.

 

On the real, the "trio" may be primadonnas for the whole charade, but we do need to give these guys props. We always blast athletes for letting their egos and wallets get in the way of winning. These 3 went against all that. They put ego to the side, and all that crap of "my team", "my legacy", etc. They are taking less money. All to increase their chances of winning. Give them props.

 

exactly, and opt out in 3 years. then he'll join the knicks/nets and further build his reputation.

 

When he started reciting all the great players with there sideshows like Bird and McHale .. I was so proud when he ended without saying hakeem's name ..

 

Agreed, what the hell!

 

Maybe if they had parents to teach them not to look up to athletes, they wouldn't be crying. The rockets traded moses in his prime for a couple of hot dogs. My dad says, "son, you have to do whats best for you and you family."

 

Dang, it looks like the "burning jersey" incident got him a lil choked up.

 

Man this is bull. I am just speechless. You have 3 guys that are the faces of their franchises and now they're join forces. Now its not even interesting to watch the NBA anymore.

Lebron leaving Cavs will never be in the same shadow of Jordan any longer. He needs to ride the wagon of two other superstars. I just can't believe this happened.

 

I totally agree !

They had a chance to keep Lebron if they traded J.J. Hickson for Amare.....thats right J.J. Hickson.

 

ANOTHER ANNOUNCEMENT??? This is just stupid.

 

If clyde couldve joined dream at the age of 25, he would have. I think it it set a standard about guys who truly want to win.

 

Miami Heat = Los galácticos of the NBA.

 

People may have been. But I wasn't. I feel cheated. I have truly believed he was going to prove himself the greatest player of all time. I sincerely doubt he'll achieve that now. And I will definitely be rooting against the Heat. They are the Yankees of the NBA now.

 

These guys sacrificed to win a Championship. That a great sentiment if they end up winning. Kind dumb since it ould happen more likely in Chicago for just two of them and a great supporting cast but? They had to be together so its kinda good I guess to be on the beach taking walks with the sunsetting and your loved ones Wade, Lebron, and Bosh all hand in hand. :grin:

 

The funny thing that I never heard anyone bring up about LeBron is the jersey number change. If I remember correctly, Pat Riley retired number 23 in Miami and put it in the rafters right about the same time that LeBron declared he would never wear number 23 again. Strange that nobody ever threw that out.
