That pretty much sums it up. I feel sorry for anyone who watched it. I'm sure you want that hour of your life back.

he does look sweet, but i can only imagine that every single guy in the nba is out to get him. If he's gonna be sucessful, he's gonna have to bring it :0.

I missed it due to work. Anyone got it taped? I can pay a nominal fee or trade you for some magazines that feature him on the cover.

I believe that he is a great player, no doubt about that, but the media is hyping him way too much. I don't think he can live up to it all. I can't wait to see T-mac or Kobe cross him over and dunk on him. If he wants to be a great player he has to actually play and not succumb to all the hype surrounding him.

Jeez, imagine if this kid chokes once he actually plays a pro game.

He just played it and definetely did not choke. 14 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, in 23 minutes. Pretty darn impressive when you figure he missed 3 three-point field goals.

did anyone hear the interview after that game.

"I had more people coming to see me play basketball in high school than the cavs."

Good thing his ego isn't being stroked.

He has a big ego because he is stating facts? Did you hear some of the other Cavs like D Miles? They are giddy to be getting all these fans and they know who is responsible. I've thought LeBron is doing a pretty good job with the media. Most of his comments are about team success.
