Lebron was telling theheat to draft Shabazz, avoided all of riley's calls and emails, and avoided him at Wade's wedding. Lebron acted like a passive aggressive coward. Riley is old school; you dont let shyt slide like that.

But it slid :heh: and now Riley is being just as passive aggressive. Nothing especially brave or old school about throwing this shyt out there and then :mj: when the reporters followed up.

Coli laughed when the exact same sentiments were voiced by Gilbert post The Decision.

You can be a fan of LeBron on the court all you want but its no way you can ignore the guy has a business credibility/integrity issue that gets overshadowed by his basketball talent.

Take away "on the court" and you could very easily be talking about Riley. If some owner were to do Bron dirty towards the end of his career nobody would shed tears for him and rightfully so. Then again that won't happen because we know that all these owners and execs are super duper stand up guys who's integrity could never be called into question.

Before this thread gets out of hand, Riley did say they were over him leaving. But clearly the games LeBron and his agent were running last summer rubbed him the wrong way.
Like front offices do players all the time? I respect Lebron for turning the system on it's ear for a change.

Why no outrage over an NBA owner consistently taking a shot at a former player like July 2010? :mjpls:

Gilbert caught heat why not Riley.

Riley didn't blast his character as a human being, act as if he had no right to leave, basically tell people don't raise your kids to be like him, publicly accuse him of quitting in the playoffs multiple times, and then try to cancel the following season just to keep his team from getting a shot at a title while writing tantrum esque letter to the commissioner about other teams making trades. Gilbert did.

LEBRON RESPONDS TO PAT RILEY
A day after the Heat president said there are "no more smiling faces with hidden agendas" in the organization, LeBron brushed off the comments: “I don’t care about nonsense. … I lock in right now and I don’t need nothing creeping into my mind for no reason that doesn’t need to be there."
