    I don't think it would be that big of a deal.. We still have the Texans and the Astros to fill in the void and College ball as well..

    No. very classless IMO. Lebron looked like he was tearing up when he saw it.

    Yao Ming hasnt played for us in a year, when he does play he is a walking injury...

    i will be glad when the yao ming era is over, tired of hitching my wagon to him.

    but for the mean time GO YAO i hope you can stay healthy and help us topple the lakers!

    You guys can say whatever ya wanna say. But it is a dark day in Cleveland right now and I am glad I am not a Cavs fan because this one here will forever affect the fans and the franchise of Cleveland.

    I don't think I would have burned my Yao jersey, but I probably would have dropped a steamer on a bonzai tree.

    Yao wouldn't have left liek that, it wasn't that he left, it was the way he did it, talking and hyping up free agency for two years basically saying he was looking forward to leaving, he slapped everyone in hte face in cleveland the way he treated them and acted about it, thats the reason he gets the hate, bc he tried milking this crap for what its worth made it bigger than the game, and he just made this whole thing a big game, i dont think anyone would get hated this much if they just left and explained, but the wayhe dragged it out and did it, james was just classless

    Trick question...cuz you know Yao would never ever do it this way. What Lebron did was classless and Yao is the complete opposite. He's loyal to the Nth degree...but if Yao had done it in the way LeBitch had done it then yeah i wouldve done more than just burn a jersey. The overhyped hour long special, referring to himself as King James, and the constant attention whoring. He's got no class and it makes me think he's still just an immature high school kid with a letter jacket that thinks he's billy badass.

    It's true LeBron James is a quitter in the Playoffs. I was surprised when Cavs were down and in need of score and James pass the ball to his teammates and he just stay in the corner and watch...I WAS COMPLETELY SHOCKED!! He is no Kobe...if Kobe see that his team is behind, he would demand the ball in the post right away.

    KING JAMES as people call him is no king!! If you're truly a KING, you're supposed to be loyal. "Loyal" and "King" are almost in the same sentence. Also, you don't quit and you're supposed to stay in your throne and make other free agents COME TO YOU!! You don't go and join them...that is not what KING DO!! Especially when Bosh rejected him about joining Cavs and he STILL want to join them at Miami...KING are supposed to make people come JOIN them, NOT the other way around. KING james is a joke!

    no.

    Yes, I would burn all my Yao Ming jerseys and then spread the ashes over JVG's grave, the one that he was rolling around in.
