Oh gee, there's a shock. DWade doesn't call his new best buddy a quitter. What else was he going to say?
james quit on hes team, and thinks he has to resort to playing in a star studed lineup to get to the promised land, but hes in for a big surprise AGAIN when he faces stiff competition in the playoffs and hes loser attitude takes control of him AGAIN and hes team get ousted AGAIN from the playoffs despite having home court advantage troughout the playoffs AGAIN !
LOL, and how many turnovers did James have ( in game 5) and how about him stepping aside so that Pierce could drive right past him to the hoop???? How about him staring into the crowd??? James DID quit throughout the whole playoffs, especially in the Boston series. I couldn't BELIEVE I was watching the same player!!! Now, it all makes sense!
On another note, what about Bosh??? His team is in the playoff hunt and he quits playing because a SMALL bone in his face is broken??? Sounds like he didn't want his team to win either.
The NBA has become a JOKE. I hope the owners do lock them out and if not, I still won't waste my time and watch another game!
That should read, (especially in game 5). James played subpar throughout the series!
Lebron brought more money to Cleveland in 7 years than they ever had. People need to let it go and be happy for what he did for them instead of continuously keep hating on him. and for people to think he quit. C'mon the man is trying to win a championship and guess what if he quits, then he wont win one .. geesh , O well we all have our opinions i guess..
People are so fickle and whimsical, ready to believe whatever the media pushes headlined by some tight-jawed witch hunt minded multimillionaire owner who just did not get his way. Anyone can have a subpar performance. Instead of discrediting James for allegely quitting why not congratulate the Celtics on doing such a great job defensively against him. I guess the Patriots quit on the Giants and the Saints won the super bowl becuase the other team was quitters. Cotto quit on Pacquiao and Tiger Woods is in quit mode because he has not won anything lately, etc. Sounds like an insult to the sport and the other players to make such a claim. It is called competition! Is that not what we all want to see?
well said
Wade has retained his title of Ugliest Man in the NBA, but despite that, to quote Joe Wilson: "You lie!" LeBron OBVIOUSLY quit. In fact, he's a professional quitter.
Can't wait for the Heat to visit Cleveland this fall. I am wondering just how James and Wade will be kneecapped.
Bang bang or thwack.
Ha Ha! Someone obviously didn't watch those games. The whole team quit, including the KING. I can't for the life of me understand why people stick up for this guy. He would rather play with the other NBA superstars than against them.
L-A-M-E! As if pro basketball wasn't already lame enough!
He's either Quitter,hurt or maybe just a loser. Some great players never win a ring. Good luck florida the Ohio curse has went south.
