    So LeBron is the next diva? I predicted that team some of us have. I said they'd struggle with no ball movement because they have two ball stoppers and will struggle to put it together. Neither Wade nor James is a good perimeter shooter. Then some if i remember said ego's will crash their chemistry and collide with each other. Looks like everybody has been spot on.

    So can you just come out and say that Yahoo and Woj just made up things that have never happened? If LeBron is such a stand up guy, why are there nobody coming out to contradict the "lies" here?

    does every celebrity go out to denounce every rumor there is about that person?

    all i'm saying is it's overly exaggerated. and we all know journalists can paint any picture they want.

    lebron wants spoesltra to "BOW DOWN" to him? cmon now.

    If Lebron sabotages Spoelstra, that's going to backfire on him because it means Riley's going to come in and Riles doesn't take s**t from nobody. Riles will come in pissed as hell that he messed this up and will not let Lebron get away with anything. Riles is a 65 year old alpha dog who's won 5 championships.

    This Maverick Carter guy is really managing Lebron's image poorly. This dude has no credentials and is messing up the one client he has. He'd be lucky to be interning for the press office of the Vipers if he didn't happen to be Lebron's buddy.

    “It’s been said that LeBron could’ve benefitted here this summer,” USA Basketball managing director Jerry Colangelo said. “But it was never a consideration.”

    I've said from day one, I want the Heat to fall on their faces. I have zero respect for LBJ the man right now. Until he grows up and starts to respect people in general, coaches, players, and the game, I'll continue to root against him.

    Hey LeBron, karma's a b**** isn't it?

    so jerry is saying lebron should have been with team USA this past summer but lebron never considered it. we all know lebron turned down team USA to explore his free agency (and jerry didn't like that). i'm talking about when he WAS with team USA, nobody had anything to say, particularly the players.

    I remember how everyone made a big deal out of this when it happened. If that was Kobe, everyone would just say he was "too focused on winning the game" to notice the kid and it would be hailed as a sign of his great competitive fire.

    I am not talking about the title. I am talking about the incidents he cites. What parts of those do you think are made up or exaggerated?

    Not really. I think a lot of people would hate on Kobe's douchey behaviors. I, for one, would. Remember people making a big deal out of him kicking a water bucket in practice?

    I don't know why people keep want to pit LeBron vs Kobe. Why do you think if someone criticize LeBron he must be a Kobe fan and vice versa? I used to think LeBron had a better character than Kobe. Not any more. I think both of them are pricks. Kobe does have a better competitive spirit.

    "If that was kobe blah blah blah....."

    It wasn't.

    Why do you think there are EXPONENTIALLY MORE quotes/videos of LeBron being a douche as opposed to Kobe?

    It's probably because Bron is more of a douche.

    at the beginning of the article, there was not a single quote or source to make his claims. not a single one. and that's a huge claim he's making where he literally treated mike brown like a biotch.

    and the rest of the article had no legit quotes to go from. it is mostly his "opinions" of lebron's character and how he's been coddled and acting like a biotch.

    and the team USA part. he was around kobe/jkidd/coach K (all guys who have been around brats or divas) so i'm sure someone would say something if he acted like a biotch.

    you serious? no one is denying lebron is a diva. but a total biotch with no regard for ANYBODY ANYWHERE ANYPLACE?

    Actually, I don't remember that at all.

    In general I wouldn't think that, but I find that's often the case on this BBS.

    Maybe it's because Colorado hotel rooms don't have video cameras in them.

    Anyone ever think that this was planned by riley+wade+bosh+lebron from the beginning? Far fetched but pretty damn devious if it were true.

    did kobe not receive backlash for this?

    yes, in fact he did! CRAZY RIGHT!!!

    still doesn't change the fact that Lebron's douche level far exceeds Kobe's.
