WHAT LEBRON DID WAS SELFISH AND IMMATURE.HOW MANY PLAYERS HAS HE SHAMED OR BEAT DOWN(AS HE SAID) AND THEY STILL SHOOK HIS HAND?WHAT IF ALL THE PLAYERS FEEL LIKE THEY CAN DO THE SAME THING.I DONT LIKE THE FACT THAT THERE ARE RULES FOR PLAYERS AND LACK OF RULES FOR STARS.HE WAS WRONG AND DAVID STERN HAS SHOWN WHO HE REALLY IS A COWARD!!!!!THE MAN IS GOOD BUT HE IS STILL A MAN.WEVE HAD STARS BEFORE.I GUESS A KING IS DIFFERENT.A MAN MUST KNOW HOW TO BE HUMBLE OR GOD WILL HUMBLE THEM.

from what i remember lebron didn’t shake hands the pistons after the cavs got eliminated back in 2006, neither when the celtics won against them last year, but didn’t skip the media, so is that what everyone’s getting worked up about? he’s done the no “good luck next round” before, so why’s everyone making a big deal of it now?

Lebron is a sore loser, no excuses. I wish all the lebron lovers out there will follow lebron’s example and teach their kids to never shake hands or congratulate their opponent after losing and use the excuse that its because they are winners. NBA.com has a great article written by david aldridge which says that even boxers after getting their ass knocked out still congratulate the winner. So you lebron fans think its actually ok to walk off, then lets just get rid of the tradition all together in all sports like tennis, soccer, etc, see what will happen then you idiots. The guy is a cocky punk to don a yankees cap so soon after the loss, its bad timing at the very least.

Having said all that A.I told lebron that the moment he does something bad, the fans will turn on him just like with kobe. imagine the outcry if lebron ever does something like that. The guy is a typical egotistical cocky nigga with lots of money, should have lots of fun with kanye, TO, jay-z, mayweather and all the others that no one likes.

I think it’s been blown out of proportion. I do the same thing afer some heart breaking losses. I don’t hug with opponents. I know others might not respect that, but that’s who I am.

King James is a role model for a lot of people that’s why he’s been widely criticized, but it’s not that big of a problem.

Hey haters, i believe everything he said, and if i was the best team in the nba this season and i didn’t win it all, i would be damn disappointed too, compete at the highest level or **** off some place, nobody wants to denied greatness, neither does lebron, he will be back next season doing his thing, hopefully the rest of the cavs are too, ohh and thanks to the media for blowing this sh*t out of proportion, without lebron to take the fall, u wouldn’t be fishing for the next big headline, so i am glad ur all getting paid on his behalf.

Hey this is the only thing LeBron has done wrong during his career, he’s a 24 year old guy, cut him a little slack, he isn’t god and he won’t always be a perfect rolemodel. If this is all we can criticize him about then I think he’s doing pretty damn good.

martin podzikowski barry sanders is not a winner…HE NEVER WON A SUPER BOWL, you don’t have to shake hands in the NBA it’s not a rule and not a breach of contract. He has to speak to the media not to the other team, that’s what the media should be fussing about but ppl in an imperfect world look to ridicule the good…barry sanders aint no winner, do u kno wut team he played for?!?!

KOBE BRYANT didnt shake the hands of the Suns players after game 7 when the Suns came back on the Lakers from down 3-1 in 2007, but did anybody make a big deal about it, NO! And im surprised at how much criticism Lebron is gettin from not shakin howards hand instead of not talkin to the media because not shakin somebody hand in the playoffs after you get eliminated is NOTHING NEW! It happens EVERY year by star players and none-star players. It seems that Lebron HAS to not only be a perfect player but a perfect human being. NOBODY’S perfect! I swear man, u can do 99 good things, but if u make ONE freakin mistake, people just want to JUMP on you! But i think lebron is gettin jumped on so much is because he’s the best player on the planet AND the face of the NBA, and they want him to hold the freakin standard of being perfect like he usually is, which is impossible! I think lebron carries himself in such a high-standard way that people just can’t wait til he makes a mistake, so they can jump on it. :roll:

i dont blame lebron at all, its very difficult to congratulate a team that jus ended yoour season
it was childish yet very understandable why he did what he did
