    I hardly defend him on this board.

    I just don't hate on him like a lot of folks do so you think I defend him a lot I guess

    But I criticized him for the way he left. I'm just not petty

    This. This garbage of a player and a human being (what a sorry excuse for a human. He makes me ashamed of being a human being) has been coddled and spoiled all his life. Riley has to do something about this trash or he is a trash himself. Pathetic all the way. Does he really think he can get away with anything?

    A player with his talent lever should have won championships already. The problem is he's never been paired with an equally great coach. Mike Brown won awards by letting James do whatever he wanted. Spoelstra is not exactly a push over but he's too young of a coach to gain respect from a douchebag like James. I'd like to see him try that crap on Sloan or Jackson though.

    Don't you know? The King apologizes to NO ONE. That's why he's the King.

    It's also why his fragile ego shatters when people post videos clowning his "Decision" and why he ends up blaming his coaches for his shortcomings (which is also why Spoelstra is done).

    He's still not as bad as Kobe. Kobe thought he could get away with rape and ended up w/ a settlement.

    I don't even see how you can be a motivator-only if you don't possess knowledge of the sport. He wouldnt even be RESPECTED enough to get responses out of people if they thought he didn't know what the hell he was doing.

    Minnesota is 4-11. They're a more splashier version of the same 'ol suck.

    Phil Jackson has been with Winters for more than a decade now. If you did something for more than ten years don't you think you would have gone better at it over time? The way you assume PJ is a dunce who knows nothing about Xs and Os is ridiculous. PJ is one of the most respected coaches in the league, I'm pretty nobody would respect him if he didn't know his stuff (i.e. Joke Rivers).

    You can't be serious about Minnesotta, they aren't exactly a winning team right now. The Lakers are one of the top teams in the league and Minny is still a lottery team despite several high end lottery picks on the team.

    If you look at the footag eclosely LBJ clearly leans into Spo as he walks past which makes the bump intentional. What a punk!!!

    It was a dumb idea to have a guy who isn't even old enough to be these guys' father coaching them. As if they're going to respect him.

    Why should age matter? He's their coach. That right there is enough for them to respect him.

    Pat Riley was 36 yrs old when he took over the Lakers head coaching job. Kareem and Magic had no problem respecting him.

    This. Even if you hate the coach as a player there still has to be respect simply because he's the coach.

    Either people are jealous that Lebron has more money then they will ever have, more girls then they can dream off, and live a life luxury, or Lebron has done things to them, which have to be shown on a doll..
    This hate is crazy..

    This is true for every NBA star. But not all of them are hated. So no. You've got to come up with better reasons than that. ;)

    Yeah, this is exactly why people hate Lebron right now... just like how they hated him when he was in Cleveland. :rolleyes:

    Wade stood behind Spoelstra during the off season. I can't remember if he was as supportive as SVG before Riley took over.
