U embarrassed?

ENOUGH with the U mad, They mad, non-sense. We (the gb mod team) are getting tired of dealing with messes here, that takes time AWAY from us enjoying these boards.

Consider this your ONLY warning before a suspension is tacked on.

This goes to everyone, as well.

You want the greatest player in the game, someone who has made the game interesting to follow over the past few years, to get hurt?

Gotta love the classless people wishing and hoping for another human being to get hurt.

:nonono:

I'm not even a Kobe/Lakers fan, but stuff like this reeeally makes me want to see the Lakers beat the Heat.

I was the straw that broke the mods back. Hooray

Wishing LBJ gets hurt, is that about as classless as, what, throwing a playoff series, lying about an elbow injury?!?!

Not really.

We've been in discussions for a while now how to deal with these comments and you were just one of our many examples. Please post better, your track record here shows better.

ESPN today is like a parody of the ESPN I remember growing up watching. This is just terrible.

ESPN is smart, and you guys should be happy that they isolated the Heat instead of spreading them all over the NBA page. Way to overreact much?

Wonder how Cavs fans feel about Brian Windhorst going along to follow LeBron in Miami? He's been a great contributor to the Cleveland Plain-Dealer

Say what?

We should be happy like they're doing us a favor or something? How about many of us will just not watch ESPN - at all.

I would love to hear how you think a player quitting in the playoffs to join up with his friends to win titles the easy way makes the game interesting. He ruined the sport. Now guys like Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony want to do the same classless thing because they can't win without a super team because of what LeBron and Bosh did. LeBron getting a career ending injury would destroy the super team and make my favorite sport interesting again.

While I don't like LeBron for what he, Wade and Bosh did, I wouldn't wish a career ending injury to them. That's just not right.

Just root for the Lakers, Celtics or another team to beat them.

What does one have to do with another, though?

Because someone did what they wanted to personally do, deems you to be irresponsible and wish ill-will upon another human being?

Then this country tells us the Middle East and the other part of the world is full of emotionless and inconsiderate people. It's really sad.

I didn't know Disney owned ESPN. Now that they are connected to the Orlando Magic does that mean that Orlando will have national coverage?

Hehe....I'm so excited getting ready to watch Lakers vs. T-Wolves, good luck Wesley Johnson.
And tomorrow my babies play against Houston, finally, basketball is here.

Oh back on topic, I don't go on ESPN because you have to pay to read their articles.

I already didn't watch Heat games unless they played the Hawks and had no interest in watching them before. Now this is just killing my overall interest in the NBA. We already know this is a rigged sport, having national media whoring at the altar of one team just proves it even more.

He wished ill upon me too. LeBron IS a bad person. If you can't see the way he acted exhibited a clear character flaw then you are blind. He wished ill upon me and millions of others by talking about how he cared about winning for Cleveland and staying and building something important only to fake an injury, quit, and then disgrace the city on national television.

That's the difference between me and LeBron, I only wish ill upon him, he acted ill upon his fans because he didn't care about them. And don't defend someone who refers to themselves in the third person, because anyone who does that doesn't care about anyone else. So don't compare me to a terrorist. I'm not emotionless or inconsiderate. I am considerate enough to NEVER do what LeBron did and I am acting with emotion to the **** things he did.

If it were really rigged, why would the NBA put these 3 players in Miami of all cities? There were MUCH LARGER media markets in the running for these 3 from Chicago to NY to NJ. Miami is not on their level by any means.

Yes, it was rigged.

For now those will be fine since it's more of a representation, but if they are used in a manner to respond to a post, the same rule that has been stickied on the GB will be carried out.
