I just don't understand that point of Lebron's commercial. Everyone almost forgot about him and moved on, but he has to come out with a commercial to self promote. For all the people saying move on Cleveland, how about the same for Lebron 6 months later?

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.
I'm not disagreeing with any of that, just he really showed and/or removed 100% ALL doubt of his character on how he handled the trade.

Oh and that Southpark parody.. classic!!

It's funny how everyone thinks Lebron is so good but he can't win a championship.

No one player is good enough to carry an entire team all the way. I'd say James did damn good with the team he had. If the NBA started a 1on1 side league who do you think would win the championship? James. Tell me one team that won a title with only 1 great player? Jordan wouldn't have won a single ring without Pippen, Paxton & Grant. The Cavs never had a solid enough team outside of 1 other dude. If they had got Shaq 2 seasons earlier they would have had a much better chance to win a ring. The day there's a single player in the league good enough to carry an entire shitty team to win the finals is the day the Clippers win the championship. James was MVP 2 years in a row now and could get it again this year. Only 3 other players have done that in the history of the NBA. And Jordan wasn't even 1 of them. He's the best player in the league by a large margin right now.

Uhh....by what metric? I'm looking at the stats so far, and he isn't the best. Bay far.

Most exposure? Maybe.
