Don’t blame him. He’s wondering how he can get back to Cleveland right now

[Eagle4]

Meanwhile, ADNP still a no show.

it's that feeling of going thru life knowing you can always have it your way, and then,,,,,,you can't

if he loses, he ignores everyone and disappears. seems mentally ill this is not simply lack of sportsmanship.

I don't blame the guy. What's he supposed to say? "Yeah, I balled out tonight but the guys around me are trash and even if they play semi-okay we still get our butts kicked."

the guy's proud and the situation around him sux. I know guys will say it's the bed he made and all, but that doesn't make it any more comfortable to lie in.

if he was more humble, he'd still get treated like Steph Curry anyway.

Typical lebron statline with -21 with him on the court.
He's not been really balling as much as you think, that's statpadding

This dude isn't a leader.

A -21 huh, I wonder who leads the league in that category...

Stat padding as usual. No hustle on D.

Yes this is mental illness, really not trivialising mental health problems.

Ugh, goodbye RealGM

I'd probably ignore the media too most of the time if I was an NBA player. Can't blame him.

I think they're contractually obligated to talk to the media.
Which would be ok if it wasn't the same questions and same answers every time, those interviews mostly unwatchable.

If you were getting paid millions and millions of dollars to play a game, and one of the requirements was that you had to spend a couple of minutes after each game answering a few questions - and you refused to do so? That's pretty sad.
All you would need to do is simply pull a Belichick - I'm focusing on the next game after every question.

I forgot that in this scenario I would get a lot of money for answering pointless questions. Doesn't sound that bad now that I think about it.

btw, the "you" I was referring to was LeBron (or other NBA players) - not you the poster

[UcanUwill]

I would do the same, so I understand.
