thank god this is over. now espn can get back to brett favre coverage.

what a joke

Initially, I honestly didn't mind ESPN dedicating an hour to it (and I hate ESPN more than anything). I mean, it is a pretty big deal and people have been talking about today for a few years. But then the coverage was just fucking horrible and it took them 20+ minutes to get to Lebron after saying it would be announced within 10 minutes. But yeah, they had to show photoshops of Lebron in each uniform he talked to and a fucking map of where fans thought he would go. Fucking ESPN. Is there some way we can kick Bristol, Conn out of this country?

I hate the NBA and ESPN so I didn't put that coverage on for one second. They even announced lebron's destination during the phillies broadcast. I don't feel like I missed anything

I am a so-so NBA fan. Worked for the Sixers so always interested but don't watch a lot. Was interested in this since it has been discussed for years.

I understand it's a huge story. I just can't stand being force fed news...especially by the tools on espn

I will watch the sixers, but if the league folded tomorrow I wouldn't be upset at all. The NFL is actually worse than the NBA these days. If it weren't for gambling I wouldn't watch football

I am with you. I have a really tough time with the NFL. I watch the Giants but that is it and even then, I really look forward to Penn State games more. The NFL is in the position it is because of gambling, plain and simple.

I get tired and annoyed with the NFL/NCAAF with coverage everyday it gets on ESPN, ESPN 2, etc. It's worse in the offseason. Baseball doesn't get too much coverage, only during the regular season and only in the offseason if a big name is becoming a free agent or a big trade is happening. But other than that, not a lot of coverage.

I'm so glad this happened. Now it's official - Lebron James will never ever ever ever ever ever touch Michael Jordan's scrote.

Give me a break. What the fuck did he owe Cleveland? How many players have gotten it done on their own throughout NBA history? Not many.

Sell out? He took less money for fucks sake.

MJ was not surrounded by greatness? Ha!

Lebron is 25 years old. In 20 years from now I bet you will be singing a different tune.

Not exactly. Check this out...

However, LeBron's decision does not come for another 18 hours or so and I'm still betting that he returns to Cleveland. Its hard for me to believe that he's gonna break Cleveland's heart on national TV. After all this hoopla he'll look like a hero for returning to his hometown team. I think this whole thing is a gimmick to give the Cavs management a wake up call to get him some real help on the court. Just my opinion.

Looks like I was wrong! I'm really surprised he left Cleveland. The next few days/weeks are gonna be really interesting. I'm really interested in who the Heat get to surround the new big 3. Mike Miller has already jumped on. I'd bet that Shaq and T-Mac are gonna jump on the bandwagon, maybe AI too and after the way the Lakers have treated Derek Fisher in free agency, I would not be surprised if he signed with them as well. Ugh, this is so bad for the NBA. Its basically gonna be the Lakers/Heat in the finals and no other team is really gonna matter. When teams start dumping old, washed up talent next season at the trade deadline to clear cap space the Heat are gonna absorb ever more decently talented, super desperate for a ring players to stack their roster. Looks like the Heat are now the Yankees of the NBA. I'm a Lakers fan but I have a bad feeling that Phil Jackson is eyeing that team after next season.

The Heat better hope they win a championship next year, I think its only gonna take one disappointing year before one of them starts bitching about not getting the ball enough or this or that.

I never thought I'd say this but, God I'd love for the Celtics to beat the Heat in the playoffs next year.

Really, I think Cleveland can blame Delonte West. Lebron is still a dick though.

after digesting this one night ... i gotta say ...

a) i was dead wrong about him going to miami alhtough it became pretty clear by late afternoon yesterday
b) will there be a more hated franchise in the league now? ... they are pretty much guaranteed to be booed everywhere they go
c) it is clear fame and legacy is more important than anything amongst athletes ... lebron wants rings and i'd say he put himself in the second best situation to get one (chicago would be better imo) ...
d) holding a grandiose event like that and leaving was a major kick in the junk to cleveland ... a serious lack of class ... it's one thing to leave which i'm sure most would understand but to do it in that fashion is pretty sick ...
e) as the recent champ in my fantasy basketball league - i will make a guarantee that regardless of where i draft next season - i won't be picking lebron or bosh (he just sucks) ...

Don't worry the Knicks will still get Lebron, it will just be 12 years from now and he'll be injuryriden and fat. That's when we'll make our move.

I will like to say congrats to Lebron, at least now you won't have the pressure to be the next Jordan. he stayed and made everyone better.

I say that when ever, he plays we should yell "GAME 5"

You broke my heart LBJ. You will never be Jordan.

I wonder how Lebron feels now that he is D Wade's whipping boy, bitch, wing man, sidekick, asskisser, pissboy, shadow....

One thing I found to be absolute BULLSHIT????

Lebron didnt want to come to Chicago, because of Michael Jordan????

Give me a break!!!!!

Oh wait...I guess it kind of makes sense...


Thats the same reason I will never play 1st base for the New York Yankees.....
Because Lou Gehrig played there....

And the same reason I will never play running back for the Chicago Bears....
Because Walter Payton played there.......

And I am not buying that whole "he took less money to play in Miami" BULLSHIT!!!!!!!


New Yorks state tax would have cost Lebron MILLIONS!!!!! right???

He will net more money in Florida.....right?????

Fuck Lebron....
