Seems that alot of people give Cavs fans a hard time for hating on Lebron. There are plenty of people on this site that hated Lebron when he was on the Cavs. Some of the Cavs fans might be blinded by their hatred for Bron, there are plenty on here that are blinded for their hatred of Cleveland

The injury thing I cant say anything about because I gave him plenty of shit for that pinky injury

Gave up, id need to watch that game again. His numbers for that playoff series were still pretty damn good, but his supporting cast for the most part shit the bed, much like the Orlando series.

I wasnt the one that said he was one of the most physical players in the NBA that was Dynasty. I was arguing that he doesnt shy away from contact, or stop going to the hoop after hes been fouled

I dislike lebron as much as any cavs fan, but he is a pretty physical player. As far as game 5 last year....he quit. I was at that game and that entire arena was in disbelief at what he was doing. It was so obvious it was sickening.

+1. The same idiots who are arguing for Lebron now, are also the same idiots who went out of their ways to bash him when he was on the Cavs.

Pot meet kettle.

The Beard Stays!!!
----------
First and foremost, I want to say thank you to the fans in LA and all of Clipper Nation. Not many guys get the chance to play at home in front of their family and friends the way I have been able to the past couple seasons, and I am grateful for that opportunity. My former teammates will always be my family, and I wish them and the organization nothing but the best.



I can't wait to join my new team, bring good energy and help us win games. I'm ready to call The Q home and bring some excitement!!!



See you soon Ohio! The Beard is on its way!

Everyone loved Lebron last year, minus maybe one person on here. So, no, there were not Lebron haters on here last year who all of a sudden support him.

There were plenty of people on this site that were highly critical of Lebron of last year. He changes teams and all of a sudden those people dont feel the same. Its the same fucking thing that Cavs fans are doing.

Yeah and I also loved OJ Simpson right up until he sliced and diced that trick.

But you don't all of a sudden claim him to have had a shitty NFL career.

I have no problem with people who hate Lebron, however, I don't understand how someone can diminish his talents.

Every non Cleveland fan bashed lbj last year. Especially the faker fans. Now all they do is take lbj's side to bash the Cleveland fans. It's funny to see


I hate lebron for leaving Cleveland. But as a bball player, I can't not watch him when he is on. He changed the way I watched basketball starting his sophmore year in hs. I used to drive from Lancaster to Akron a few times each season to watch him play.

YES!

I am a Cavs fan...so I really don't pay attention to Lebron anymore...just like I do with every other player that leaves. I will never argue on his talents. The only thing he lacks is "clutch" type jumpshots....like Kobe or Paul Pierce. I think most of us Cavs fans were just a little surprised with all the these stories that came out about how he was with people/fans. It sucks when a guy that was the face of your city turns out to be a POS human being.

I didn't like LBJ, I tolerated him. The guy is a joke as a person, a true piece of shit. He is one helluva basketball player and for that I liked him on the Cavs, but as a human being, hes a douche.

Exactly. I don't dispute that Lebron is one of the greatest, if not THE greatest, players in the league but towards the end I was looking at him through a jaundiced eye. Too much stuff was coming out about him regarding the behind the scenes stuff plus his lack of being clutch when it counted, poor free throw shooting in key situations and his obvious fear of the Celtics started to make me much more critical of him towards the end. I'm not going to deny that I was a Lebron supporter, for the most part, but as I've said before "he had us ALL fooled." You can't dispute his skill set but for all of these "nut huggers" who feel he can do NO wrong? WAKE UP!

I still stand by my statement 1000% that he shies away from physical contact against the good teams (Celtics) that have no qualms in taking his head off. His testicles go into hiding.

This clearly came to light as he was making his exit strategy. Some people could just see through his facade earlier.

Link to obvious "fear" of the Celtics? Again where do you see him shying away from physical contact?

Good video. Barkley says it best at around the 2:40 mark. I'm interested to hear what happened behind the scenes of that series. It is pretty damn clear that Bron quit, I think alot of people want to know why. Somebody saw something and sooner or later it will come out.

Couple of posts I found interesting from the game 5 and 6 threads.
I loved a quote from LeBron today..

When asked why the fans shouldn't be nervous for Game 6, he replied:

"They got me"

Love it.

Oh and please stop the "his heart has already left Cleveland" bullshit...

Why would he put aside one of his best chances to win a title in maybe his career because his "heart left Cleveland already"... That's complete and utter bullshit and nothing but excuse building.
This game is on Antawn and Mike Brown.

As much as I'm pissed at LeBron, he's still got 25/19/10
From KR:
Cavs deserve to lose. I have never seen so much gutless, heartless basketball in my life. Those guys should be ashamed of themselves. Outside of Lebron I dont want anybody on this current roster back.

There were also multiple people screaming for Mo's head (not LeBron's) including hoops/LTrain and KR. The only 2 people openly critical of LeBron other than saying he didn't play well were 77legend and Mr 300.

I just didn't remember everyone calling him out during the season. Most waited until after the decision before saying they were glad he was leaving. What's the point of lying about it?
