Funny that the dude pretty much picked the players he wanted to play with, and now that they suck arse, he wants a trade.

That is the story of his entire career, TBH.



Then how the hell did he make it to the NBA finals 10 times with all those players he picked??

They don't let the Brits say "niggles" anymore, either, when talking about injuries that aren't serious.

He’s using this time to find out who spray painted his gate. Of course, he’ll be catching up on some reading also.

Are you under some sort of delusion that athletes are supposed to act like infantrymen?

Kellen Winslow Jr thinks so

I wouldn't recommend following Winslow's advice for much of anything.

No, LeQuit would never last 1 minute in military.

I expect them to fulfill their contract. Not a hard ask.

Athletes are role models to many young kids no matter if we like them or not those kids look up to them. And the message LeQuit sends is to quit when things get tough. Great role model right?

Welcome to the 21st century brother.

You'll enjoy sports a lot more if you stop having so many expectations for other people.

Do we have any legitimate sources saying this? He missed a game. Why isn't this all over ESPN?


B/c what OP posted is poliboard retardation stuff.
And I can't stand Lebron, but this thread is stupid and has jumped to ridiculous conclusions based on a 40 year old in year 22 who's been the best player in the world for 2 decades taking a little break during a stretch of their schedule where it can be easily taken without being a big deal. Redick literally said "Heck, if somebody wants to go spend a couple of nights in Santa Barbara and relax, that's fine too. It's a quarter way through the season."

Nope, I enjoy sports much less these days because I do have expectations for other people.

I know several lifelong Laker fans here in CA that have reduced interest (one even stopped watching/following them completely) and are just waiting for this dude to leave.



I’m about here.

I want James, Russell, Vincent and Hayes gone.

I think Davis is a top five player that is being sabotaged by James being the worst defender in the league.

Its this shite right here why these players shouldnt be getting paid the contracts they do. They should have a decent base pay but everything elese incentives

And this is also why everyone should refuse to pay the Owners prices at games
