Jordan was just a big of a douche if not bigger. If you're that good it pretty much comes with the territory. Lebron is the only player in the NBA right now who has the potential to be better than Jodan by the time he retires.

I agree that Jordan is a douche, but I never thought I would see anyone douchier than him. Also agree he has the potential to be better than Jordan, but I disagree that being great and being a douche come hand in hand.

No he doesn't, he is playing second fiddle on D. Wade's team...

You must be daft if you can't understand why people in Cleveland were upset on how he HANDLED the situation.

That or you just aren't a sports fan in general.

Yeah the 2 year straight MVP isn't the best player lol, he's the best by a long shot. The only reason he probably won't be MVP this year is he's now on the team with the #2 dude in the league, so both are screwed when MVP voting comes along this year. But even with that said if he plays like he did last year he still has a semi decent chance of winning his 3rd straight MVP title.

Lebron James is the best player in the NBA right now.

However, if i was starting an NBA team right now, I would 100% of the time choose Kevin Durant over LBJ. Durant is a much better team player than LBJ

Meh. Again, he owes Cleveland nothing. Move on already.

"I got a goal, and that's a huge goal, and that's to bring a NBA Championship here to Cleveland and I won't stop until I get it."

He should have either never said or actually followed up on it. Have you noticed that Z left Cleveland to go to Miami also, and not only do we not hate him for it, we actually wish him the best of luck. It wasn't a matter of him leaving, it was a matter of him leaving false promises while preaching loyalty and family and then going out the way he did, not telling anybody that he was going to be leaving until he has his national broadcast to essentially go "Fuck you Cleveland."

Tearing Cleveland's heart out is kind of funny actually

Carmello will be leaving us soon, hopefully sooner rather than later so we get something for him back in trade. However, most die hard Nuggets fans I know, albeit upset about it - aren't clinically depressed over it. You move on, and life goes on.

With this LeBron thing, you'd think its the end of the world for some of these Cleveland fans. But then again, they do live in Cleveland so perhaps thats all they do have. GTF out of that economic hell hole people. Or just get over it. Life goes on.

Sports fans here in Cleveland are goddamn morons. They bitch piss and moan about EVERYTHING the second one thing goes wrong. As long as the teams are winning, the fans are the most die hard ones you will ever see. The second they start losing, the fans turn their backs, burn jerseys, sell their season tickets and trash talk the team every chance they get. I've seen it first hand year after year. As far as LeBron leaving, he acted like a dick and could have done things better. Not that it would have mattered because the fans here would still piss and moan just the same.

How butt hurt would your friends have been had Elway left? That is more comparable. Anthony hasn't really done much for the team. He's good, and they've had some success, but he's not anywhere close to being as important as James was to the Cavs.

Cleveland needs to get over it. Quit crying about it and put together a team that can beat Miami.
