LeBron doubts Dan Gilbert ever cared about him

[selby56]

I am a Cubs fan, you're right and it does suck being bad year after year. I understand that you are angry that he didn't hold up his promise, believe me I do and I understand that he's cocky and that he should have tried harder in the playoffs. But the difference is that I draw a line between sports and personal lives. Rip LeBron all you want for leaving early, be angry that he left, what ever makes you feel better. But don't insult his mother, because that is where it becomes over the top. I honestly wanted LeBron to stay in Cleveland too and believed he would. He didn't and at some point people need to get over it because it's not changing. But really insulting the man's mother? What did he say about your family? I'm curious

The way I see it, if Lebron and his mother are going to take shots at Dan Gilbert for being "classless," they need to look in the mirror. That is all I'm saying. It may not relate to my family, but no one likes a hypocrite.

for the second year in a row, we were the best team in the league. .

ummm....that would be the Lakers. Honestly I don't like Lebron at all but he had a right to go. Its called free agency, where he has every right to go to a team that he chooses, he went to one that he thought could have a better chance of beating the Lakers. He went to one where he thought he'd have more happiness in playing with his teammates there. He tried it for years in Cleveland and it just wasn't going to work

Right, no one likes a hypocrite, so Cleveland fans shouldn't be them by insulting a man for being classless...by being classless.

I guess the whole part about promising he wouldn't leave us without winning a title and quitting against Boston is irrelevant...my bad.

Is it still classless if it is true?

[nadeau01_johnson48]

It's a pretty simple concept: You will be shown class from fans if you show the fans class in the first place. LeBron showed us no class, therefore, he earns no class in return with anything people say to him/about him.

WE fill the seats, and therefore, WE help pay your salaries. The athletes are the ones that should show class more than anyone. If it wasn't for us, they wouldn't get to play a game for a living while making ridiculous amounts of money.
