LeBron James has the same problem carrying himself as Billy Gillispie did here in Kentucky. You have to realize that when you're on the stage that you're on, and held under the microscope that people of your stature are that you have to conduct yourself better. There aren't a great many professional athletes that I have respect for. Though I'm a big sports fan, I just don't understand the salaries some people draw to play a game. Want to fix the American economy? How about some legislation on professional sports salary caps? What bothers me the most is that the people who play the least dangerous sports make more money. Hockey and football salaries should be higher than sports like baseball and basketball even if solely based on the amount of physical contact. Lebron, you make millions of dollars to put a ball through a hoop. STFU.

Yeah, as much as I dislike Kobe, I've got to say he's handled his stardom much better than LeBron. I have lost mad respect this year. It will be hard for him to gain that back from his analytical fans. The young impressionable ones will be easy. :-/ guess that's fitting since he's pouting like he's 12.Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

IDK what is with Lebron James, but he's shown a lot this year about what little character he has. He spent the season bragging and saying how awesome he is (example: "My range is…..*shrugs* infinite."). Then when he loses to Orlando he leaves the court w/o shaking hands, no press conference, nothing. Then this happens and he acts like he's some basketball god that can't be proven to be flawed. He needs to just get over himself.
