Ps. Check my views out in the nba thread about LeBron in general. Think the guy had shit to work with, and made it far. Obviously he's a talented guy. But to act like that was pretty classless. Of course I also think Kevin Garnett acted very classless too when the Celtics won the championship.

Ehh.

How?

Anyway, what Lebron did, I wouldn't consider classless but I mean, come on he should have been shaking some hands. Just a quick little congrats. I mean, people saying he walked away because he is passionate about the game and all that shit. Everyone is passionate about the game, thats why they are playing it professionally. Some people might show it more, but everyone has a passion about the game if they dedicate their lives to it. Bottom line. But I still don't agree with the fact that Lebron did that.

How?

Because he acted like a retard.

So that makes him classless? I am pretty sure if you won an NBA Championship for the first time in your illustrious 12 year career, you wouldn't be acting like you normally do. He was ecstatic and he had the right to be. But that doesn't make him classless for being excited. I still don't see how he acted like a retard, he was just at a loss of words. No one knew that they were going to win their first year together. Hell, as a fan, I didn't think it was going to happen.

I'm a Celtics fan, so I hear ya. But he acted like he was retarded.

Celtics_Own · 05-31-2009, 06:45 PM

Yeah thats true, but given the circumstances, i could see why he was acting like one.

Still pretty sure if anyone who never won a ring, they'd act like "idiots" too. Dude was just talking slang it seems.

What a bunch of LeBron suckballs......

If it were Dennis Rodman, Terrell Owens or Randy Moss that did the same exact thing somehow guys like SS would be "OMG what a dick move!!!"

Instead LeBron acts like the spoiled baby and people think "Oh he just loves the game"

If you loved (and respected) the game you would congrat the people that just took you down in 6.

No way, in fact I was going to bring up Randy Moss when he left the field during a game against the Redskins(I think?) just to point out, it's not a bitch move. I think the only sport where I'd consider it a bitch move is hockey.

It's one thing for LeBron to get pissed at his teammates, his players, his coaches, the GM of the Cavs...whatever. I understand his frustrations with that. However, when the Cavs beat the Hawks and Pistons, I'm sure he was out there to shake the opposing teams hands. You can't play it only one way.

One of the best traditions in sports is when teams shake hands after a series ends. I love seeing that, because no matter what happened during the series, everyone can be man enough to congratulate eachother after all the dust settles.

LeBron should be embarrassed by the behavior he showed, and this obviously was done by James as a statement to the Cavs front office more than a statement to Orlando....however, he did this the wrong way. Not talking to the media -- that I can excuse, I suppose. But shake the other teams hands.

Wow, didnt feel like reading 5 pages. But if Im reiterating somebody elses opinion my bad.

Who gives a shit? Could you blame him?

Believe me, I remember how bad it was being stuck with Wally and Delonte. Lebron gets all the pressure of being "jordan-esque" and bringing a title to a city that desperatley needs one, they start off on a hot streak, and then against Orlando his entire team shits the bed.

Id say him storming off was a mixture of embarrasment, and anger at his teammates for not backing him up at all this series.

I cant wait to see him in another city, with a team that can actually produce.
