Lost repect for Lebron

[SupermanOnSteroids]

damn, and i thought i was big. i don't take any of that stuff though. just some protein and creatine. just wondering how much you weigh and how all that mass affects your agility and run times?

[2LeTTeRS KD]

Getting upset about a player wanting to be a worldwide icon or making money is ignorant. Thats a league-wide goal shared by half the league. Basketball is his profession and he's trying to use it to feed his family for the next several generations. No different than a Peyton Manning who during the season you would see 4 of his commercials during every break in the action.

[Timmy D for MVP]

Have you read MJ's "For the Love of the Game"? Does he come off as cocky? Or mabey when Tiger talks, his voice has a twinge of arrogance to it. Shaqw saying the Heat are going to repeat, and that he's the greatest in the universe? Cmon, the best know they're the best, so Lebron wants to emulate that. Is there a problem with being a worldwide figure? No. I'd like to be a world wide figure in something someday, Im' sure you would too.

If you want to talk about the T.O. of the league. Look no further than Gilbert Arenas.

I weigh around 225, but i gain/lose 10 lbs really easily. As far as I can tell, my agilty and speed are still fine. Every summer when we play outdoor hoops, all the homies are like "oh, here comes Barry Bonds" when they see me, lol.

You must be fairly short then?

6'0. I claimed 6'1 for a long time, but my Dr. assured me I was only 6'0

If you lost respect for Bron after that comment than you need to get testosterone injections because I suspect you may be a little on the feminine side.

That's why I take them

yeah I noticed, hence the comments were tongue in cheek.

[SupermanOnSteroids]

damn, you and i weigh about the same, but you still look much bigger. i'm about 6'1.5 220. with about 7% bf. but i don't look any thing like you. got more of a wirey build. how do i get scary lookin like you. i want a fat striated neck. any exercises for that? right now i just try to stress my neck muscles during upright rows.

LeBron's the most arrogant high-profile player I've ever seen.

It's not his fault so much as ESPN's. But that doesn't mean I like him.

[BBallBeatwriter]

I agree, I have seen him up close and in person twice before. This last time at All-Star Weekend here in Vegas, he shunned every kid that said hi or asked for an autograph when he was walking back from the All-Star Media Conference to his hotel room at the Palms Casino and Hotel. And finally one kid walked up and asked for his autograph, and the kids dad said "no son, don't ask for LeBron's signature, he's an *******". I can recall when he was in high school and he refused to do certain interviews and even sign other high school players autographs.He probably knew a precident was about to be set on him. This is the nature of atheles. I remember a fan chasing Melo for an autograph, and the guy was wearing a Melo Jersey and kept saying "Melo, come on I have your jersey" and Melo ignored him.

this is a reason why dirk is so awesome. the dude is a 7 footer and goes to random bars and gets drunk with everyone. and apparently he will take a picture/sign autographs for anyone

He is a drunken German. What do you expect?

[Hardtop Hero]

Though he gets showered with $$, fame, and glory on a near daily basis, I am at least thankfull that every 2 years, he gets shown up and beat back down by some Euros into the arrogant and unfundamentally sound basketball player that he is.

This bi-annual beat down at least serves the purpose of preventing Lebron from loving himself to death.

This is such garbage. The problems with USA basketball are a USA problem, not a LeBron James problem.

Further, the kid is 22. I don't get people who expect him to be an 6, 7 year veteran at 22. Don't you realize that by doing so, you're just showing how special a player he is?

I don't know. I think anyone who doesn't appreciate how well he's playing at 22 clearly has an agenda against him. I'm not saying you have to LIKE him personally, but to overly nitpick a 22 year old that's doing what he's done so far just screams overly biased to the point of silliness.
