How can anyone respect LeBron after that most recent article about him?

[bukowski81]

I like how you exclude the part where it was on the doctors orders to not sit on the bench.

[LongLiveTheKing]

Oh yeah, Doctor's orders, "Do not sit in a chair."



He's definitely down in Miami laying in a bed then, right?

LeBron James' rehab process to deal with back and knee strains has focused on getting him into the best places to heal. That included a stay in Miami to take advantage of warmer weather this week, sources told ESPN.com.

Cleveland Cavaliers doctors advised James not to attend games over the past week because "continuous sitting" on the bench would be bad for his back, coach David Blatt said.

For this reason, James was excused from team activities and did not attend road trips in Charlotte and Philadelphia and a home game against the Dallas Mavericks.

LeBron James has missed six straight games for back and knee injuries and said he's spent the time rehabbing "three, four times a day" with his trainer.
"That was by design," Blatt said. "He hasn't been around per orders of the doctor."

Too true. Miami is the only place in the USA with warm weather.

Good on his doctor looking out for him, fo'reals.

Who says he has to continually sit? Durant and Westbrook would be up at every timeout encouraging their teammates. And if one of them made a great play they would be up cheering it.

Lebron is just a terrible leader and a terrible teammate, not to mention an incredibly mentally weak athlete with entitlement syndrome.

He still has the "chosen 1" mindset to this day even after all the choke jobs and disappointments.

LeBron has done that too. Its not like someone is going to be standing up the whole game

So what is he doing differently at home? Does he have some specialized chair he's sitting in that doesn't "hurt" his back?

I mean seriously, how mentally weak can you get? Can't be there encouraging your teammates because it might make him a little uncomfortable.

Cry me a ****ing river.

Why do you make assumptions and analyze every single thing about LeBron James?

You act as if your an insider and you know everything about LeBron James and the inner workings of the Cleveland Cavaliers organization. You make up all these crazy theories and act like they are facts. It's kind of sad really. I don't get where all this pent up frustration for LeBron James came from.

Instead of defending his every move, why not provide a precedent?

Steve Nash suffered from terrible back nerve damage. However, instead of retreating to another city (that he used to play for), he'd literally lay down on the floor during his team's games.

What's your next excuse?

Laughter is the best medicine. Good choice.

he went house hunting again sown in miami

[k0kakw0rld]

Dude can't even sit on the bench and encourage his teammates because it'd apparently put too much stress on his back...

And he has to stay in Miami because of the warmer weather outside... and will only be able to return once Cleveland goes on a road trip in all warmer cities, otherwise his return would be prolonged....



Dude is literally taking a vacation in the middle of the NBA season. While his teammates are out there battling without him, he's busy relaxing in Miami... in the middle of the NBA season.

Sorry this just boggles my mind. Dude officially has Cleveland by the BALLS.

How can you respect Kobe? He raped a girl and wanted out of LA.

I remember howard and I think j rich being told to not leave a road trip city by orlando doctors. It happens.

Well damn, Droid101 just take the "L" man

[SavageMode]

LeGOAT is just coasting, he knows there is no point in trying until playoffs come around and it is better for the team to step up their game, amidst his injury.
