Fan in LeBron's Heat jersey draws ire

[rico6]

LOL if Lebron's a slave I must be a fuging mutt.

I don't see how anyone can defend that idiot, he was asking for it!

What would you prefer? He post it on his twitter account? No matter what he did, people in Cleveland were gonna hate it and act like the little bitches they are.

A lot of people handled the entire situation poorly. ESPN, for making it into a mockery. The Cavs owner for "the letter". AND Lebron too.

Remember Lebron was the guy who walked away from a playoff defeat without congratulating the other team. Lebron is no Jordan. The guy has no little class and is still very immature.

Though, the problems in Cleveland were deeper than him.

But LeBron is the one taking the majority of the criticism, even though everyone from David Stern on down played a part in the "decision". I dont even think it was handled poorly. Because of how it was handled, this NBA offseason has been one of the most talked about in a long time and some money went to charity. No one complained about how it was handled until after the fact. People are upset that the "players" dictated their destiny and not management.

Which was overblown. I didnt like how LeBron didnt speak to the press after that incident, but him not shaking the Magic's hands is so overblown. Peyton Manning didnt shake the Saints hands after the Super Bowl this year and it wasnt even a story. That kinda stuff happens all the time in sports.

Lebron is no Jordan. The guy has no little class and is still very immature.

LeBron doesnt want to be Jordan, he wants to be LeBron. Which is why I respect him even more. Trying to be something you're not or will never be is foolish. And at 25 LeBron has more class and maturity than most professional athletes. Its why he's the 2 time MVP of this league. Its why other players want to play with him, why coaches want to coach him, and execs want to work with him towards a championship. I'll say it again, if LeBron is so immature and has no class why was the entire sportsworld kissing this boys ass all summer up til July 8th?

Though, the problems in Cleveland were deeper than him.

And yet people still resent him for leaving that dump. The market and team were not in position to win, and he saw that. He was smart enough not to waste his career there. All the people who turned on him because he switched jerseys or because of "the decision" were never really fans in the first place.
