The Cleveland Cavaliers were in the process of losing to the Atlanta Hawks and LeBron James was very frustrated. He missed a three point shot and as the other players ran down court, James starting walking to the bench. There was still a few seconds left on the clock, but WHO CARES!
James has never been accused of not playing hard in his short NBA career. He hustles, plays defense and does whatever it takes to win. I believe the media needs to stop looking for stories where there isn’t one. The Cavs are struggling, but it has nothing to due with effort. James is one of the classiest NBA stars and wants to win, lets LEAVE HIM ALONE.

ok but if a guy like ron artest does that, you are probably the first to bash him. you love the double standard. lebron should be ridiculed for this, just like any other nba player would if he did the same thing.
L.I.G. it, Let It Go. He’s apologized, unlike other players would. This is probably the last time he does anything like this. He’s still King James, and we’re all still witnesses.
LOL, If this is the worst that Lebron has done, than O MY GOD!!!! THE GUY WALKED OFF THE COURT WHEN THE GAME WAS OUTTA REACH!!!! HEY HE KNEW THE GAME WAS OVER AND WAS PISSED!!!!
It’s not like he shot a gun in a strip club parking lot! Drop it already. People make mistakes. He does 1 thing wrong and its blown completely outta proportion cause he’s a star!! My GOD it seems like everyone & their mother is waiting for this guy to F___ up!!
steve-o,
Can you really compare this to Ron Artest charging the crowd? Can you really compare to an cocky player. Please tell me that you have never stopped playing at the very end, even though you seem to have passion to win….This is NO BIG DEAL.
what i am saying is that if ron artest does this, a big deal would be made of it.
