LeBron James = no class

[NextGenBoys]

Yes. As a matter of fact I am. I play semi-pro football and have never not gone out and shaken hands as well as prayed together after taking a loss. I also never propped myself up as the next great thing either. As an Olineman, I guess that comes with the territory. We go about our business of wrecking individuals quietly.

Very nice sir, and my props to you.

You guys are using your hatred toward LeBron wayyy to far. He just got beat after having a phenomenal year and worked his *** off. A little poor sport? Yes, but lets not talk about "losing respect" for him. That's just comical. Like any of you even respected him before. If he cheated on his wife with some random chick then bought his wife a 5 million dollar ring you would be all over him...oh wait..someones done that..who was it again? Talk about losing respect...

You keep bringing the wife thing in this on Kobe, personally that is between him and his wife. We are talking about basketball. What you do off is the court is personal business. Would it have killed Lebron to say a few words to the media and address his fans? All he had to say man this going to be hard pill to swallow and I appreciate all the fans and their support. Goodnight.

They are both off the court though. People are talking about losing respect for him to make Kobe look even better. I know their tactics and it's not working. And I keep bringing it up because we are talking about losing respect here and that's why I don't and never will respect Bryant. His nickname Black Mamba is perfect because he's a snake that buys his wife. She's just as bad as him. Golddigger.

what do you think of all the Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman who don't shake hands, and Tony Romo who doesn't shake hands? They are classless too right?

I'm with you..it's a double standard that people use. Get over it!!

I HATE Lebron, and HATE the way everything is shoved in our face about the "King"

But I respect EVERYTHING he does on a basketball court, because he does it the right way. He gets his teammates involved, is a great leader, and an even harder worker. He shoots a high percentage from the field is always looking for his teammates.

So yes, I respected him more, before this incident, however I still respect what he does on the court, just not the way he deals with defeat for someone wanting to be the face of the NBA

Bringing up the wife thing is stale man. Come up with something new. I, personally, haven't lost respect for Lebron. I just think he should have faced the music, answered questions, and then dipped. We wouldn't all be sitting here talking about it had he just done the right thing. Shaking hands is overrated IMO but I will still do it "after" the game.

Seriously man.. Read my posts and then once you understand my little beef with Lebounce get back to me... I don't recall ever having a beef with him shaking hands. It's all about facing the media music and answering the tough questions. Get it out of the way and then go about your business. Clear as mud for you?

Typical..just sweep it under the rug and forget it ever happened...

The same way you're reacting about his little after game dip? Think of the mountains of endorsements that dude has. Think of the companies that expect an image to come along with the game. Kobe lost his endorsements so he paid the price for awhile before anyone started coming back around again. Lebron needs to understand the importance of facing and taking care of your obligations.

Your comparing dipping out from the media after a game and adultry. LOL it took Kobe 2 years to get his image back to normal. LeBron will get his back next week.

He is a spoiled brat.

And that thing he does with the chalk dust is stupid. 99% of the people in the US can do that. Wow. He acts like it's something special.

Actually... the comparison originated from your typing hands. Check previous posts in the thread Lebron fan.

And he stole it from Jordan. Jordan would go over and chalk his hands before the game, and lightly toss it up and clap in front of the scorers/announcers table before tip off.

Lebron does it like its some religious ****ing tradition.
