Moving goal posts now?
first it was "Riley" but now he owes Miami fans?

You expected him to call Miami fans now the same way he should have called riley?

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

He gave them four straight trips to the Finals and was a FREE AGENT. His job was to perform under the terms of his contract which ended. To tie them to the Colts that left under the cover of night is false.
no i made the point the colts didn't owe the fans shyt... they played the season.. they didn't short them any tickets... it was the offseason.. they didn't owe them shyt

WHICH IS CORRECT... still a bytch move tho


bron knew he was leaving 2 years prior... had the moving trucks going... riley calling his phone.. he couldn't even pick up or send a text to say "i'm out"... same man you busting nuts over for the past 4 years

did he owe him... no... still a bytch move tho


other dude brought up how the colts owed the fans somehow... so i made the connection that IF that's how you think, then bron owed the fans too


me personally i don't the colts owed the fans shyt... it was the offseason right? they were allowed to move where they wanted


again.. not what you do.. how you do... have some common courtesy

nikkas are terrible in here :scust:

Lebron is a digital muthafukka :wow: He makes moves that are always 2 steps ahead.

Riley told the world him and his wife were having a daughter when Bron wanted to keep that shyt private..

Riley didn't seem to mind that he bounced on Cleveland when the situation was not to his liking. That's why that whole situation is :mindblown: to me.. Why would Riley underestimate Bron :what:

He didn't realize that Bron is on some other shyt and will not be dictated to be anyone.

He played out his deal and left bottom line.

THREE-OH-FIVE TILL I DIE
Miami Heat fan who happens to live in Miami chiming in.


1. I'm glad LeBron decided to play for the Heat in the first place. It was awesome. I don't believe I missed a single game the past four seasons.

2. I was angry that he decided to go back to the Cavs because I, like countless other Heat fans, defended this man against all who dared to criticize him and the Heat. It truly was an US AGAINST THE WORLD scenario. And it was good. It felt good. All the hate pouring in on Miami from the rest of america was glorious because the Heat at minimum, were going to the Finals.

3. I don't hate LeBron. But, I hate James Jones. fukk James Jones.

4. I'm glad the Heat organization is not like the Cavs organization. The Heat kept it pushing after dude rolled out. The Cavs folded like cheap patio chairs for years after LeBron first left them.

Have you worked for a multi million dollar corporation before?

Where does "common courtesy" exist in that space? Who "expects" that working with billion dollar operations?

Brolic... Alcoholics
I'm sorry...but I actually work for a living and have had to move on from former employers who I didn't owe shyt.

You guys live in a fantasy and care about the well being of your former employers emotions. Employers who would get rid of your asses in a heartbeat with no regard for you or your well being.

It's all emotions with you idiots in here.

Talk business. Look at your own lives and apply it to your thought process here.

When those clowns at Bear Stearns let my entire division go during the Credit swap fallout in 2008...there was no "nice way" they went about it. No warning. Nor was I a bytch ass expecting to be informed prior to their decision. It's business....and you inexperienced dudes talk as if you've done nothing but work menial jobs your entire lives.


This post would make so much sense if LeBron didnt....

1. Say he regretted how he handled The Decision.

2. Say how awkward it is when he sees Riley so he tries to avoid him.


If he regretted how he handled the decision, why go back and handle this decision the same way? That makes no sense. Aren't we supposed to learn from our mistakes so we won't repeat them?


And no man should ever put himself in a position where he feels like he needs to avoid another man becuz of his own actions.

Is he so above reproach that it is nearly blasphemous for us to criticize him?

I guess Riley thought that this lil fatherless nikka will never leave me and I'm in control in here treating him like the hired help.

We should all be applauding Lebron's acumen and the way he does things.

That white man Riley thought that Bron was his good lil nikka and he aint leavin :mjpls:

No doubt you're going to have feelings for a previous employer.

trust me...I left my previous employer in January and enjoyed the relationships I had. I hated leaving certain people behind...especially a dude who really fought for me at my old job...but I had to do what was best for me. And I knew it would hurt him in particular so I chose to avoid dealing with that and left without consulting him. I'm happy with my decision. He's an adult....and it's been three months. He's moved on from me. but here we are in a thread full of niqqas defending a dude who:

1. Left a team via fax
2. Hasn't moved on from a guy that left them.

:smh:

Bron practically runs the Cavs org....and he's supposed to look back at Riles?

You think players are going to put Riley's feelings into the equation if wanting to play alongside Bron?

:heh:

yea because i said any of that... you got it bro


I'm trying to figure out your "reputation" angle. How does this hurt Lebron in ANY way. With his standing with the players?

Did Riley's departure with the Knicks and how he went about it hurt him in any way?
