Fuck Nike. Almost mocking "The Decision," yet rubbing it in people's faces and saying he is in it for himself and fuck everyone else. Well fuck LeBron.

Interesting commercial.

One thing he should certainly do is a TV show with Kenny Powers' dad!

BTW, the marketers at Nike are genius', so if this is what they want to portray Lebron as, then fine by me. I don't blame Nike for it. I'm sure they would have wrote a different off season script for Lebron, but it is what it is, and they need to lay out a new path for him.

You should really move on. I believe I read the other day that 49% of all fans have an unfavorable view of him. Do Cavs fans make up 49% of all fans these days?

Cavs fans have a reason to whine, one of, if not the best player in the world just left our team for someone else.

Lebron seems to be moaning, crying, whining whatever you wanna call it, at the fact that there are now people who do not like him anymore. STFU Lebron and focus on winning an NBA title, not what people think of you. So yes, the translation of that for me was "WAHHHHHHH"

I don't really have anything to move on from. People are calling LeBron out for crying, when Cavs fans are just as guilty. There was another segment on Sportscenter this weekend and fans in Cleveland are still crying about it. Everyone needs to move on, LeBron made a choice that a lot of other pro athletes have made.

So you're not separating Lebron crying from Cleveland fans crying? Therefore Cleveland fans can't make fun of Lebron bitching about how people now hate him (even if its implicit)?

LOL @ that.

Yes you do. You want to bash Cleveland fans every chance you get. That is what you need to be moving on from.

Again, Cavs fans are allowed to cry and bitch about how the best player in the league just left their team. That's what fans do, and what they are supposed to do. That is their rights and privileges as fans.

Trust me, Cavs fans have moved on from his "decision." It's shit like this, where we decide to comment on a Lebron story, simply to say Lebron is a pussy for being so butt hurt over the fact that there are now Lebron-Haters out there. He made his own bed, now he can't lay in it.

You're implying we don't have a right to make fun of him for crying, and I was trying to logically piece together the driving force behind your statement, when obviously there's none there.

Uh yeah I'd say you really do need to move on from thinking that Cavs fans are the only ones that have a bad view of him now. Do most of them? Yes. Close to a majority of ALL fans do as well and he didn't leave their team on national tv.

And if you really think fans of any other team in the NBA wouldn't have reacted the same way you're delusional.

Some Cavs fans have moved on I'm sure. Trust me, not all have. Did you see Sportscenter either yesterday or today? ESPN went to Cleveland and interviewed fans. You honestly can't believe that they aren't butt hurt over the decision. And no, I don't bash Cleveland fans any chance I get. I have no problems with Cleveland fans.

I'm no Cavs fan and I think (have always thought) Lebrick was a momumental douche. There are others like me. His bitch factor was obvious to those who weren't blinded by his talent. Now, its just that he has shown the nation what a fag he really is.

I don't think Cavs fans are the only ones that have a negative view of him. Like you said, 49% of people see him in a negative light. I said the day he announced it that I didn't agree with how he announced it, but I have no problems with the decision he made. He's 25 years old and was free to do whatever he wanted. He wasn't the only one who handled the situation poorly.



And yeah, I'm delusional. Cavs fans who thought there was absolutely zero chance of him leaving are the delusional ones.

Can't wait to hear Charles Barkley's response to him being mentioned and Lebron eating a donut right after.

I don't think Cleveland fans will ever truly move on as long as he is playing for another nba team and retires on bad terms with the Cavs. There may come a time where fans aren't so vocal about it but he will always be the villain to Cleveland fans. Its just part of what happens when fans feel betrayed by the guy who was the icon of their team. Look at Green Bay fans and Brett Favre last night. And that happened two years ago and Brett Favre didn't tweak Pack fans the way Lebron has been tweaking Cavs fans with stuff like this. I was talking to a friend about this last night and we both agreed it almost seems like Lebron didn't even see this coming. It was quite naive of him to think he wouldn't be hated for his decision by Cavs fans. The funny thing will be if Lebron does do the whole thing he said about possibly coming back to Cleveland after his contract in Miami though (which is doubtful). I wonder how many Cavaliers fans who hate him now would be celebrating him. Speaking as a Cavs fan, I know that even though I detest him right now, I would be estatic if he decided to return to the Cavs tomorrow.

I dig it. I can't wait for LBJ to smash on fools this season.

I wonder if Cleveland fans will EVER get over it?
