Hey everyone's entitled...but that bald dude put his body on the line many times for team success. That broken nose this year was the most recent example
lobbying for calls and flopping are two completely different things... the european players have the same mentality as soccer players... if you cant beat em make the refs think they're beating you
he deserved that broken nose and anything else he gets
it just goes to show double standards. U take a shot at Duncan whose a quiet type dude.... Yet you have a problem with Lebron being an attention whore
seriously?
glad everythings not that black and white...
I'm not entitled to like a guy that falls somewhere in the middle of that drastically different spectrum?
FUCK THE SPURS
Good we got that bias out of you. Ok you dont like them, great. Im not a fan but I admire how a lil small town(not even a city in my eyes) can go 4 for 4 in the NBA Finals and produce pretty good role models as in Duncan,Robinson,Elliot,Ginobli, Parker,etc....they go for Character guys. They do it their way and have success.
You wont see one of them pull a stunt like Scottie "Whiney" Pippen did when Phil picked the Croatian sensation Toni Kukoc to down the Knicks in the playoffs.....that just goes to show that Michael made Scottie millions as he was a worthless guy without him...ask Portland, and Houston
no need to get all worked up, I just thru the Spurs out as an example of doing it the right way, they seem to get no love.....4 titles aint a fluke, and if Derrick Fisher misses that lucky shot and Ginobli doesnt foul Nowitski they might have 1 or 2 more

Whatever it takes to win
Speaking of the World Cup....many people think Spains style is boring as shit......u think they care
The REAL NEWS (perezhilton.com) has reported that Lebron rented 6 villas in Miami for this coming weekend. So sorry Cleveland and Chicago. If Perez says so, it is so.

President Obama Mentions He'd Like To See LeBron James In Chicago, Also That He's Leader Of The Free World
WASHINGTON—President of the United States, basketball fan, and former Chicago resident Barack Obama once again weighed in on the future of LeBron James Wednesday, saying how much he would enjoy seeing the superstar play for the Bulls, and also that he, President Obama, was in fact the leader of the free world.
"As I've mentioned before, I think LeBron would look great in a Bulls uniform," the president told reporters during a special morning press briefing in the Oval Office. "It's a great basketball city, and I think he'd fit right in. Just like I fit in here in my office—which, if you hadn't noticed when you entered, is the Oval Office, the center of power of the United States and, by extension, the Western world."
"Sorry, I think I may have gotten sidetracked there and said something irrelevant," added the president, walking casually over the presidential seal on the White House rug. "Or possibly not. In any case, I think LeBron would be perfect for the Bulls and their excellent core of young players. It's a team game, and in any team game it's important to have good teammates, as I'm fond of telling my own teammates, like the joint chiefs, the secretary of state, and, you know, the nation of Britain."
James, who becomes a free agent July 1, is being courted by many NBA franchises and is said to be considering New York and Miami as possible destinations. However, President Obama said that as a basketball fan, and as the man with ultimate authority over the CIA, FBI, and the most powerful military in the history of the world, he personally would counsel James to strongly consider Chicago.
"Let's just say I think it would be in his best interest," Obama said. "And I say that purely as somebody who remembers how great it was when Michael Jordan played for the Bulls. Not at all as one of the handful of individuals on the planet who can order a deadly predator drone attack with a single telephone call. Those drones are very precise, I've found. I told LeBron as much during a conversation last week."
As the free agency period nears, the president has repeatedly mentioned the possibility of James playing in Chicago, most notably to TNT's Marv Albert, but also to Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin and during a personal helicopter visit to the residence of NBA commissioner David Stern.
Many fans claim the president is displaying an unfair bias toward Chicago, allegations Obama responded to while idly flipping through a leather folder embossed with the words "NUCLEAR LAUNCH CODES."
"Let's be clear: I think what LeBron James has done for the city of Cleveland and the state of Ohio is remarkable," Obama said. "However, it's also been pointed out to me that my approval ratings in Ohio have dipped. And though losing LeBron would be heartbreaking for Ohioans, I wonder if it would be as heartbreaking as, say, losing $645 million in federal education funding, or even $2.2 billion for a statewide infrastructure improvement program."
"But where was I?" said Obama, looking up and smiling. "Wasn't I just talking about basketball? You see what happens when you become president of the United States? You try to have a lighthearted conversation about sports and suddenly you're discussing the very survival of entire American cities."
Though Obama has made it clear in recent conversations about James that the chief executive of the United States has the power to sign or veto legislation, nominate executive and judicial officers, grant pardons and reprieves, and, under the Patriot Act, imprison anyone with enough salary-cap room to court the MVP, many in the sporting community have noted that the president has no constitutional authority to determine the career path of a professional basketball player.
President Obama said that he agreed, at least in principle.
"Listen, my opinion as the man who holds the highest office in the land is just that—an opinion," the president said. "Any fan would want his favorite team to sign the best player out there. It just so happens that as the most powerful basketball fan on the planet, I can apply a certain amount of pressure others can't."
"Which makes sense," Obama added, "because, well, I'm the president of the United States of America."
So are all the Bulls fans going to be crying in their beers tonight when LeBron the Loser chooses South Beach over Chicago winters?
For the record, I wanted him to go to Chicago all along.

The worst thing about this would be that Stephen A Smith would be correct.
Looks like it. So, can they take down the Lakers?
I think so. If they can share the ball, which Lebron has done with shitty players I think they will dominate.
I agree and I think they will dominate the East. Still not sure they will crack the Lakers on the first try though. The Lakers will break their hearts and Kobe will get #6 before the Heat will come back the following year with unmatched fury*.

This whole thread has been pretty amusing, especially the Chicago people. Chicago, just think about how Cleveland feels?
i get that they're crushed and that its pretty classless of lebron to use an hour long TV special to shit on his hometown... BUT if i were in his shoes i honestly can't say i would stay either
SO out of the real contender's i think its fair for chicago to feel pretty scorned... this whole free agent summit thing with the 3 of them agreeing on where to go just seems wrong on so many levels

i'll get over it though... and so will the bulls
Fair enough.
I don't think there was ever much of a chance of him staying with the cast they have, but you gotta feel for a city with such a losing record, losing the best thing to happen to them in years on national tv.

Yeah, the Lakers are good but that Boston team took them 7 games last year. Idk, I personally don't plan on watching until the finals, haha.
Haha, yeah, there is not much fury in NBA basketball, more like a bunch of 6'6'' to 7' ppeople walking up and down a court bouncing a ball.
Nice to see eyed get going in a sports thread. Maybe I will test my wits against a Grizzly this weekend and if I am alive come share stories in the non-sports threads.

And that Boston team is awesome, they really are. Their run through the playoffs this year was nothing short of a bitch slap to the supposedly better teams. They are built for playoff success. But they are aging faster than the Lakers. Oh, I used to play street ball every day and I still love the game. I love to play sports... much more than watch them. This white boy could jump back in the day!
Film the grizzly encounter and I'll give you whatever advice I have at my disposal.
