@irishfinfan it really does because if steve nash and 2 other good white players where to all team up it wouldn't be a problem the suns would be thanking him not calling him a coward when he left dallas they weren't calling him a trader
LEFT HIM WITHOUT NOTICE? LMAO If the man met with several different teams right in Cleveland's backyard, isn't that a pretty good indication that he may be leaving or at least is considering? Sounds like someone had a false sense of entitlement. Go Lebron!
To quote a song by The Game and Lil Wayne, "F**k jesse jackson, cause it ain't about race now." This is an owner that was duped along with alot of Cavs fans that James was going to return. He probably would've acted "professional", but his people were as upset as him. Jesse isn't a sports guy aparently. Had this been Kobe and it was Kobe that was pulling this stunt. I believe Jack Nicholson would be the first one out there burning his jersey or writing an angry letter.
@lsufa he does it because thats how he makes a living.jesse jackson has done more to hurt race relations in this country than almost anybody has in the last 10-15 years.
jesse jackson makes you think. damn that was real deep and it connected pefectly. Lebron a coward lol. The man is honored his contract and chose to go elsewhere and the owner is whining.
@StowAlex CB didn't put curses on him, his new organization, and his family like an emotional little woman (ah la Gilbert). What Lebron James did was unprofessional, what Dan Gilbert did was gay, and unprofessional! CB was right the 1-Hour special = punk move, not wanting to be "the guy" and live in D Wade's shadow = punk move, BUT IT STOPS THERE! I understand Cleveland, and Gilbert lose alot of cash, but he did what most athletes are heroes for doing, taking less money to play elsewhere!
@CoreyPain WELL, I guess Charles Barkley hates black peole too??? He slammed LeBrat and siad that the 1 hour special and teaming up with rivals were both PUNK moves. If you Had 60+ Million invested in1 player and then he wouldnt even return your phone calls and left his teammates and fans in the dark with his intentions....you would be pissed too
He is not calling it a race issue. He is just pointing out that Dan Gilbert is acting like a slave master thinking that he owns LeBron. Its the same as slave masters didn't like it when the bill was passed for slaves to be free and when the slave went off the white men were pissed off. This is not a race issue. Because LeBron is black, Jesse is a defender of blacks and Dan is white. PPl see it as a race issue and with slave in the statement. You had white slaves too.
Jay Anderson. This isn't a race issue. That racist jack@$$ Jesse Jackson made it into one. What Lebron did was very disrespectful. Did Dan act childish, yes but could you blame him? And if Dan was such a slave owner why did Lebron go back? Jesse saw an opportunity to make money while calling more division among us. Jesse doesn't give a $@#+ about black people.
