The Cavaliers and their fans deserve NOTHING. They got lebron with the first pick, he didn't pick them. There was no personal choice there. He's been with the f**king team for 7 years and the best they could do is Mo Williams and Antawn Jamison? I'm sorry, but you guys f**ked up. If the Warriors lucked into Lebron James, I wouldn't be depressed at all if he left us after 7 years of terrible teammates
This is pretty much how i feel about it.
Agreed. Can you really hate the guy for going to the team where he thinks he can win best? Gimme a break. You're telling me you guys wouldn't go to a team most stacked to win a ring?!?!
Not when Im at talented as LeBron and have the opportunity to call myself the GOAT when my career is all said and done assuming I play it all right...he HAD a lot to win and a lot to lose pending how he played his future...I dont even think leaving Cleveland would have obliterated his legacy the way going to Miami has, it obviously would have been GREAT for his legacy to stay in Cleveland, but even a move to the Nets, Bulls, or Knicks would have been okh for his legacy...
But nope...now his legacy is beyond tarnished...its simply dead...
Not surprised this is the reaction of Kobe fans.
Plural? 
Hes indirectly saying my ability to post so much and with so much detail makes it seem like there are multiple GameOver's when in reality, there is only one...one Chosen 1...GameOver...lol
But please, Im a Laker fan first, Shaq fan second, Hibachi fan 3rd, Kobe fan 4th, so if you're gonna call me by a name, please say the first 3 seeing how they are more appropriate or else you are just picking the title you want to hear and disrespecting my fanhood for the sake of your argument
I didn't mean to single you out, but it does seem to be the general consensus of many a laker fan which in turn is usually a kobe fan
I understand your logic, no harm meant, no harm done...but wouldnt my opinion also be the same for a Jordan fan? For a Magic fan? For any fan of a player who did the same as those guys did? And is it so wrong to have wanted that from a player as talented as Bron was? For him to achieve greatness, to win rings, and to do it all where he started?
Mind you, for those who might have missed the memo (lol if you have), I probably am the biggest LeBron hater in this world (well, after today, maybe not as much as some guys in Ohio lol), used to call him LeBot for quite some years, so yeah, just so that we get all the titles out of the way, Laker fan, Shaq fan, Hibachi fan, Kobe fan, LeBron HATER, well, honestly, I guess just GLOBAL HATER in general would be a more fitting title for myself since I hate all types of people, organizations, entities, all over the world, and with a passion
The thing is, compared to those other guys you just mentioned, LeBron is at a huge disadvantage based on location alone. Say what you want but Cleveland is a s**t-hole, nobody wants to play there, the market is too small for the owner to really turn a profit and be able to go out and be able to assemble a quality team around him like Buss and Reinsdorf were able to do for Magic/Kobe/MJ. Let's get real, it's a nice story and all, oh future superstar gets drafted by hometown team, championships, fairytale ending, blah blah blah. It just doesn't work that way. People actually want to live where Magic, Kobe and MJ played. Joakim Noah is right in everything he says about Cleveland. Maybe LeBron enjoys the beach life. I know I do. If I had the means, i would be living somewhere along the coast down in SoCal. but I got a beach where I live right now, so it's not all too bad, even though I'm only able to enjoy it during the summer months.
My point is, I just don't see what the big deal is. Why so much hate just because 3 very talented guys decided to go to the same team to play a game in a location that they'll enjoy being in?
I'm pretty sure these guys had their heart set on playing together, the opportunity was there for them, they hit free agency at the same time, a handful of teams set aside enough money to make it possible, it was just a matter of where they all wanted to go.
Had they all gone to the Knicks/Nets/Clips, would you still feel the same about lebron as you do now? Or is it just because he made a 1-hour ESPN special? If so, I think it's a pretty petty reason to hate on the guy in all honesty.
