Dick Move by LeBron

[dickface]

Treating a ball boy like shit, making him pick up his warmups off the ground. The kid has his hand outstretched, LeBron sees it, and still throws his shit on the ground :lmao seriously, what a prick.

HjXQCT47EAc

[boutons_deux]

Yeah, and some of the shit he's been saying, his attitude tells me his head is ballooning even bigger than his talent. Sounds like another celeb who is turned into a prick by celebrity and wealth. Happens more often than not.

[Muser]

That's pretty funny tbh.

[nkdlunch]

come on. a miserable ballboy is like an ant to King Snake. ballboy is lucky Lebron didn't step on him.

[ChrisRichards]

It could be worse. He could've thrown those warm ups in the kids face.

HjXQCT47EAc
surprised? wasn't it something he was supposed to do?

[Bukefal]

Come on give the guy a break. he is a devoted athlete, he is in the playoffs, important game and he is focusing on the game, like an athlete does, solely on the game, and you guys are busting his balls because he isnt being kind or giving attention to a freakin ballboy? this is completely normal.

Its not about this and the ballboy its about your hate for lebron and looking for every little thing just to find a opportunity to bash the guy.

[ElNono]

It's the Shaq effect.... look what it did to Kobe...

[DPG21920]

Lmao at someone saying his ego is bigger than his talents. No. His talent exceeds all else.

You can't be serious? :rolleyes

[Greg Oden]

You can't be serious? :rolleyes

lmao slovenia

[Findog]

The ballboy should've said "Pick those warmups up yourself Queen James!"

[Pero]

lmao slovenia

Coming from Mr. Broken that's pretty funny.

[TJastal]

Lebron has absolutely no class as a human being, I'll be cheering when the cavs get their asses kicked out of the playoffs once again.

[Phillip]

im sure lebron was doing it on purpose to joke with him. i really doubt lebron is that much of a dick to do that to some random person for absolutely no reason at all. he knows the importance of image as a professional athlete.

[Creepn]

Huh. I don't know what to make of this. I will start paying attention to how other athletes do this.

[TJastal]

You can't be serious? :rolleyes

Bukefal probably gets excited thinking about Lebron pissing into his face so yah, he's serious...

[z0sa]

Little bitch ballboy got clowned on

[Greg Oden]

Coming from Mr. Broken that's pretty funny.

I may be one of the worst draft picks of all time, but I find solace in the fact that I'm not from piss ass Slovenia.

[Bukefal]

You can't be serious? :rolleyes

Why cant I be serious? :huh

If you play basketball you would know that when you are playing, you dont give a flying fuck about some ballboy and wether to be kind or not to him and respect his feelings or something, it's not kindergarten you know. You are just focused on the game, so why bashing on lebron for this other than showing your hate for him?

[ChrisRichards]

Lebron's $123,000,000 worth> Ballboys $425.00 life savings.

IN this world theres an order that takes place. Maybe this incident will motivate the ballboy to do something special in his life other than collect sweaty jockstraps from athletes.

[TJastal]

So its being "kind" to hand the ballboy your dirty warm ups now?

:lol

Yeah, probably.

:lol

I don't know, that's what you (others on here) are implying, that lebron maybe should have been more kind to the kid. that he should have been kind and hand his warm ups in his hand because he was holding them up. Ask them not me, I was not talking about that

[florige]

idk?! It didn't even look like he was paying attention to the kid to be honest. It looked like he was in the motion of throwing it down before the towelboy had his hand out.

[Phillip]

I don't know, that's what you (others on here) are implying, that lebron maybe should have been more kind to the kid. that he should have been kind and hand his warm ups in his hand because he was holding them up. Ask them not me, I was not talking about that

I still think it was a joke. Because on that last thing he threw, the boy stood in the way of where he was going to throw it, so he kinda moved to the side just to throw it in the same spot. I'd put money on it that he was just goofing with the kid.

[Bukefal]

In such moments, you arent even thinking about the ballboy, you arent even seeing the kid, you arent even paying attention. You are just with your head at the game, focused on the game, you dont have attention to other things. Is that being a dick? No, he's just focused, devoted, its normal when you are playing basketball.

[TJastal]

Nah, dude that's what you stated in the post prior..

I didn't say anything about it being "kind" to hand the ballboy the warmups. That was all you, bud. And that's what I'm questioning here... is it really "kindness" to simply hand the warmups to the ballboy? Or class (or in Lebron's case, lack thereof).

[Thunder Dan]

while we are on it, I hate in baseball when a guy gets walked he just leaves the bat at home plate. Like he can't be cool enough to throw it over to the area of where the bat boy will be

[Bukefal]

Well wasnt the reason for this thread to say that lebron was such a prick, because he throwed his stuff on the floor even when the kid had his arms stretched instead of handing it over to him? And that he didnt and thus being a dick? So isnt that about kindness?

At least I guess that was the meaning of the OP to show that lebron was not really kind and being a dick and mean to the ballboy.

[Bukefal]

Idk. It could be, maybe it was.
But It wasnt funny really :lol so I dont think it was a joke. As ive said its just a normal thing, he is not with his mind at the ballboy, he is with his mind focused at the game.

Anyway, it doesnt really matter. this little thing. It's a non factor. I was just saying its a common thing to do in sports, doesnt mean he is being a dick or a prick or mean. Using this to call him like that, says more about peoples hate for him, than what he did.

No, its all about class. "Kindness" would have been handing the kid the warm-ups and tipping him a $100 on the side. (bad "real world" example but it fits)

This is simply yet another example of Lebron revealing his complete lack of class.

[EmptyMan]

The dude has the athletic body of .0000000000000000000000001% of the human population to ever live on this planet, is nicknamed "The King", will die with half a billion dollars, and is probably bagging 10's on a nightly basis.


Most men would be oblivious to a ballboy under such circumstances.

And despite all of this, the class he possesses as a human being still couldn't fill an eyedropper

Kindness/class. It doesnt matter if its kindness or class. It has no effect on what I was saying nor on why I think its not being a dick, when acting like that.

Again, he isnt thinking about the kid, he isnt thinking about being classy or not, or being kind to the kid, he is focused on the game, that's all, when you are in a game, you dont think about any other things around you, so why saying he is a prick because he throwed his shit on the floor instead of being 'classy' and handing it over to the kid? its normal.

Maybe you just dont like the guy. Why dont you just say that, instead of using this as a opportunity to bash him.


And despite all of this, the class he possesses as a human being still couldn't fill an eyedropper

Just because he didnt hand his clothes over in the hands of the kid? :lol

[BronxCowboy]

While I agree that this incident is probably a non-issue, I didn't need that clip to know that James is a dick.

[TampaDude]

while we are on it, I hate in baseball when a guy gets walked he just leaves the bat at home plate. Like he can't be cool enough to throw it over to the area of where the bat boy will be

Because throwing a bat can get you tossed from the game.

[redzero]

Why should The King risk being touched by a mere peasant?

[RedRaider]

I think all big time athletes do this sort of thing. They only think of themselves sometimes.

[oh crap]

dispicable. and i'm not talking about the video clip, i'm talking about how some of you jokers didn't already know how much of a douche bag that pussy is.

[TJastal]

Class isn't something you normally have to "think" about doing (unless you lack it as Lebron does)

You realize your attempts to justify and defend his obvious lack of class are just making him look even worse right?

[TJastal]

Why should The King risk being touched by a mere peasant?

:lmao

[Cry Havoc]

This is a great "nothing" thread.

Ohhhh nooooo the towel boy had to bend over and actually pick up the clothes!

This has nothing to do with class in my book. James was locked in, thinking about getting a win. If he would have talked down to the boy and then thrown the clothes so that he had to actually chase them down, that would be an example of no class.

This seems like a few people trying to find reasons to hate a player because he isn't on their team.

Im not attempting to justify anything, because he hasnt done anything wrong. And I could care less on making him look worse. Im just saying its completely normal to act like this and im just saying its stupid to bash on him because of this.

Its normal, he is focused on the game, not the kid, he doesnt even see him on such moments. If you play basketball yourself you would know that in such situations you just dont give a flying fuck, your head is only at the game, not thinking of anything else.

[HarlemHeat37]

If The King was playing around and joking with the ballboy, people would have criticized him for not being focused enough on getting the win TBH..

I didn't see the video(posting from phone, don't feel like clicking the link), but Lebron is generally a class guy, considering his stature..when you look at a guy like Kobe, and even Jordan, guys that abuse their teammates and commit crimes(in Kobe's case), I'd say King comes off looking very good..

Lebron has always been a great teammate, has never called anybody out and was polite about asking for help through the media..that's all that really matters IMO..the guy isn't out committing crimes or snitching on people, he has never had any problems with teammates..what the fuck is the problem?..

no matter how hard he tries the kid isnt going to grow to be 6 foot 9 with the body and athleticism of a superhuman.

[sendman]

I may be one of the worst draft picks of all time, but I find solace in the fact that I'm not from piss ass Slovenia.

You should celebrate, because in Slovenia, broken down, stupid fucks are used for glue.

Watch the clip again, he did in fact throw the clothes away from the dude so he had run back to pick them up.

Keep reaching though, this is quite funny listening to all the excuses. :lol

My hate? LMAO, I don't hate Lebron but this was an incredibly lame thing to do and I'm starting to like him less and less. You see it's not about being kind, it's about not being a douchebag. He did what he did on purpose. If he were really focused on the game he wouldn't take the time to mess with the ballboy.

And if he did that shit to me I'd curse him and throw it all back at him. Although at the ballboy's age I'd probably just think "wow it's Lebron" or something.

+1

Exactly. If you watch the tape closely, he deliberately makes the decision throw the soiled warmups on the floor rather than simply put them straight into the kid's outstretched hands, who's clear expectations were to be handed the garments. So this argument that he was too busy thinking about the game to notice the kid even being there is not holding water.

[Bender]

And if he did that shit to me I'd curse him and throw it all back at him. Although at the ballboy's age I'd probably just think "wow it's Lebron" or something.
me too. except I wouldn't throw it back at him, I'd just leave it there, and say "thanks asshole".

Uh before every thing he threw on the floor he looked in the direction of the ballboy. And the last part he actually threw away from him.

[oh crap]

rofl @ all the lebron apologists. this douche bag could get away with murder and they'd still sit here and tell us how it's okay because he's such a great player. dude is a bitch.

[j.dizzle]

No big deal, Lebron had the look in his eyes lmaoooooo

[LoneStarState'sPride]

GEEE. ZUS. CHRIST.

ST never ceases to amaze me with the stupid shit some posters get worked up over. Look, I'm not even remotely a LeBron fan, but come on, he's focused on the game, already scanning the court, evaluating personnel, etc., and y'all think that because he didn't crane his neck to look down at some kid who has absolutely NO bearing on the game whatsoever shows a lack of class on James' part? Un-fucking-believable. News flash for y'all--he's getting paid to stay completely focused on the game at hand, not cater to every single human being that comes within a radius of two feet. Not only is it not humanly possible, but it just shows how shallow your hate of a person you haven't even met truly is.

Flame away, retards.

[oh crap]

No big deal, Lebron had the look in his eyes lmaoooooo

:lol

[MiamiHeat]

its like there are these crazy people who ignore LeBron going for a triple double in this past game, but look for shit like this to post.

[TheMACHINE]

lol at the youtube comment: " He got what he deserved! How dare a mere peasant reach his filthy hand out to a king!"+

lol

[JoeTait75]

And if he did that shit to me I'd curse him and throw it all back at him.

Please. You'd keep your eyes down, your mouth shut and do your job like a good boy. Don't try to pretend you'd do otherwise.

These "ZOMG LEBRON DID SOMETHING RUDE" threads are by far my favorite on ST. It's funny watching posters who are presumably men melt into pools of shrieking estrogen. Fact is, he's richer than all of you will ever be, he's better at his profession than any of you are at anything you've ever tried in your life; basically, he's something and you're not. Deal with it.

If people are going to act all jealous and cunty, let them know about it. And if you're a man why would you give a fuck what another man's personality is? This ain't Oprah, this is a basketball forum.

[oh crap]

lol resorting to attacking ones masculinity to defend your hero. i hope that asshole ditches cleveland for greener pastures and leaves all you pathetic fans back to your sad lives.

[JoeTait75]

lol resorting to attacking ones masculinity to defend your hero.

If you want to sit around wringing your hands over another man's personality like we're on the View, go ahead. But expect to get called out on it.

Then again, if the Hawks really are your team you have my sympathies.

[picc84]

De-facto counter when in a thread denigrating Lebron James or Wade: lol Kobe fans

Made more interesting in this case by the fact that no laker fans even posted in this thread until the third page. Out of 66 posts, 4 have been made by laker fans.

Just sayin'. :wakeup

1. Out of jealousy
2. Cunty

[dickface]

Nobody said it was a big deal. Just that it's a dick move on LeBron's part. Which it 100% is.

Anybody who says LeBron was too "focused" can go fuck themselves. If you're saying he was too focused on the court to see the kid, then basically you're saying LeBron is blind because the kid WAS PURPOSELY STANDING IN LEBRON'S LINE OF VISION IN ORDER TO GET HIS ATTENTION AND GET HIS WARMUPS FROM HIM. The ball boy is STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM WITH HIS HAND OUT. All LeBron had to do was drop his pants right into the boy's hand. Instead he moves his hand further away to drop it on the floor. HE MADE EXTRA WORK FOR HIMSELF TO DROP IT ON THE FLOOR RATHER THAN PUT IT IN THE KID'S HAND. DICK MOVE.

And then when he took the shirt off, the kid again got right in the way, and LEBRON SEES THIS, AND RE-ROUTES WHERE HE WAS GOING TO PUT THE SHIRT IN ORDER TO TOSS IT AWAY FROM THE KID ASKING FOR IT. Again, DICK MOVE.

It's not a huge deal, it's not an issue at all. But it was 100% a shitty asshole thing for LeBron to do to some kid. I don't get why anyone would try to deny it or justify it.

while we are on it, I hate in baseball when a guy gets walked he just leaves the bat at home plate. Like he can't be cool enough to throw it over to the area of where the bat boy will be

Thts because the bat boy isnt at home plating waiting for the batter to give him his bat. They want to speed the game up so they tell you u to leave ur bat at home plate and go to first base as soon as you get the bat, while the bat boy runs and gets the bat left at home plate. This is not the same thing

I didn't realize it would be as hotly debated as Obamacare and that people out there would actually try to deny that LeBron was acting like a dick.

Figures you'd think our written word isn't entirely phonetic in nature.

Is it like non-music rap music that isn't music?

Exactly. Every criticism of Pro Athletes' personalities is
1. Out of jealousy
2. Cunty

Actually yeah, pretty much. Definitely the second, if not the first. Gossiping about personalities is something women do; ie, it's cunty activity.

I'm not even trying to be a homer. It's just as stupid when people vag out over shit Kobe does.

What a poor analogy.

[Unforgivable]

Just as long as you let me know when your next landscaping beaner rant is coming. :tu


All dickface wants is some grape drink, why are you accusing him of this?

[Cry Havoc]

Watch the clip again, he did in fact throw the clothes away from the dude so he had run back to pick them up.

Keep reaching though, this is quite funny listening to all the excuses. :lol

Actually, I find it rather humorous that so many presumably grown men would get their panties in this much of a twist over such a minor issue. I'm willing to bet that the people angrily crying out against James have given this far more thought and become far more upset/obsessed about it than the towel boy it happened to. In fact, the very fact that he's being referenced as a job rather than a name suggests none of you care enough about him to find out what his name is, you only want to rip on Lebron for something. So what, dropping his clothes on the floor is rude, but referring to him as "towel/ball boy" is suddenly respectful? :lol GMAB.


+1

Exactly. If you watch the tape closely, he deliberately makes the decision throw the soiled warmups on the floor rather than simply put them straight into the kid's outstretched hands, who's clear expectations were to be handed the garments. So this argument that he was too busy thinking about the game to notice the kid even being there is not holding water.

Clearly the kid is broken up about it. I mean, he just reacts to the situation as if nothing's wrong. Because nothing is wrong. It's his job, and he's doing it. No big deal to him.


Uh before every thing he threw on the floor he looked in the direction of the ballboy. And the last part he actually threw away from him.

Oh noes! I bet he clubs kittens too.


Please. You'd keep your eyes down, your mouth shut and do your job like a good boy. Don't try to pretend you'd do otherwise.

These "ZOMG LEBRON DID SOMETHING RUDE" threads are by far my favorite on ST. It's funny watching posters who are presumably men melt into pools of shrieking estrogen. Fact is, he's richer than all of you will ever be, he's better at his profession than any of you are at anything you've ever tried in your life; basically, he's something and you're not. Deal with it.

If James was on any one of these fans teams, they'd be rushing to his defense right now. No doubt about it.


De-facto counter when in a thread denigrating Lebron James or Wade: lol Kobe fans

Made more interesting in this case by the fact that no laker fans even posted in this thread until the third page. Out of 66 posts, 4 have been made by laker fans.

Just sayin'. :wakeup

I'm not a Kobe fan by any stretch of the imagination, but if Kobe were being lambasted for this, I would be LOLing and posting the same things I am now in his defense. This is beyond ridiculous.

[z0sa]

if all the man wants is a laugh and some grape drink then i will let him be.

[JoeTait75]

This is almost as funny as when Whottt bragged about David Robinson's SAT score.

Yeah, that didn't come off very well, did it? :lol

I should just stay out of these types of threads altogether.

[Cry Havoc]

I should just stay out of these types of threads altogether.

These types of threads should never get started. Although it's highly amusing to watch a bunch of people become so upset over nothing. :lol

[ffadicted]

im sure lebron was doing it on purpose to joke with him. i really doubt lebron is that much of a dick to do that to some random person for absolutely no reason at all. he knows the importance of image as a professional athlete.

You mean like the people who got asshurt over the idea that LeBron might have treated a kid like shit? Who felt the need to ride his dick with the quickness?

Look at my original post. What made it seem like this was an "upset over nothing" thread? The :lmao smiley maybe? Yeah, that must have been it.

I like LeBron. I just thought him being a prick to some random kid was hilarious. Unfortunately stick up their ass homos like you feel the need to get all self-righteous about defending your ass buddy LeBron.

I'm sorry, next time I'll make a "LeBron is next to godliness" thread. Get your Kleenex box and Lubriderm ready for it.

[boston.balla]

lol 4 page thread on this shit. Better question: how many points will lebron get with a triple double tonight? :lol

[Cry Havoc]

You're right, dude, I'm so offended. How DARE you criticize LeBron! LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!!! :lol


Look at my original post. What made it seem like this was an "upset over nothing" thread? The :lmao smiley maybe? Yeah, that must have been it.

Maybe the whole, "what a prick" that followed? Besides, if you weren't upset, what made you so defensive? Clearly some people were highly critical of LeBron in this thread. That's who I was speaking to. If you weren't, more power to you -- and discernment is your friend.


I like LeBron.

Clearly, as evidenced by what you said above.

You're really calling into question who's butthurt in this thread. Clearly, it's getting to you. :lol

And strawman for the trifecta. Way to go.

[dickface]

between your faggy as hell posting in this thread and that abortion of a "Mavalanche" thread where you owned the fuck out of yourself, maybe posting at SpursTalk just isn't your thing. Take a little time off and then get back on the saddle.

[TJastal]

Nobody said it was a big deal. Just that it's a dick move on LeBron's part. Which it 100% is.

Anybody who says LeBron was too "focused" can go fuck themselves. If you're saying he was too focused on the court to see the kid, then basically you're saying LeBron is blind because the kid WAS PURPOSELY STANDING IN LEBRON'S LINE OF VISION IN ORDER TO GET HIS ATTENTION AND GET HIS WARMUPS FROM HIM. The ball boy is STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM WITH HIS HAND OUT. All LeBron had to do was drop his pants right into the boy's hand. Instead he moves his hand further away to drop it on the floor. HE MADE EXTRA WORK FOR HIMSELF TO DROP IT ON THE FLOOR RATHER THAN PUT IT IN THE KID'S HAND. DICK MOVE.

And then when he took the shirt off, the kid again got right in the way, and LEBRON SEES THIS, AND RE-ROUTES WHERE HE WAS GOING TO PUT THE SHIRT IN ORDER TO TOSS IT AWAY FROM THE KID ASKING FOR IT. Again, DICK MOVE.

It's not a huge deal, it's not an issue at all. But it was 100% a shitty asshole thing for LeBron to do to some kid. I don't get why anyone would try to deny it or justify it.

They deny and justifiy because they just can't bring themselves to admit what is obvious to anyone with a modicum of class and intellect.. that Lebron is a colossal selfish asshole prick.

Just as well... it provides for good wholesome entertainment hearing the myriad of excuses they can come up with. :lmao

[mingus]

i seriously doubt that the kid got his feelings hurt. i don't dangle on Lebron's cock, either. the kid is a ball boy, he gets to meet and be around NBA players. you know how lucky he is? i wouldn't have given a shit if i had to pick up everyone's warmups if i could do that back when i was younger.

[Cry Havoc]

your faggy as hell


what is obvious to anyone with a modicum of class and intellect..

Yep. Makes sense.

[mingus]

add in the fact that this kid is going to be seen by millions on youtube. probably made his damn year.

What does this have to do with anything? Who cares if the ballboy is lucky to meet players it still doesn't change the fact that it was a DICK move.

I'll give you a 8 for originality though :D

[afireinside20]

Yup there's the guy kids look up to all over the world. Fucking douchebag!!!

[Spurologist]

Who seriously gives a flying fuck....LeBron has shown he owns the playoffs and has been a model guy outside of the court.....

[LoneStarState'sPride]

5 fucking pages of this bullshit. I shudder to think of the reaction some of you pussified excuses for sentient beings have if the cashier forgets to say "Thanks and have a nice day," at the grocery store. "ZOMG WHAT A DICK MOVE YOU STUCK UP CASHIER! I'M GONNA GO STRAIGHT HOME AND START A FUCKING THREAD ABOUT YOUR DOUCHEBAGGERY."

The lack of objectivity on this board shouldn't surprise me, but damn.........

i think he did it on purpose. i think he was fuckin' with the kid. these are the same ball boys that pass to them during warmups. and there was a former ball boy that posted her a while back about how Lebron was one of the coolest players to work with. Lebron was probably doing a favor for the kid. He knew the camera was there and he knew it'd be on video, and everyone would be talking about it. now the kid can go brag about how he's on you tube and how everyone thinks Lebron was a dick to him.

[m33p0]

Treating a ball boy like shit, making him pick up his warmups off the ground. The kid has his hand outstretched, LeBron sees it, and still throws his shit on the ground :lmao seriously, what a prick.

HjXQCT47EAc

i saw that and thought the same thing

[picc84]

All you laker fans need to chill out and quit with the jealousy.

[vander]

dispicable. and i'm not talking about the video clip, i'm talking about how some of you jokers didn't already know how much of a douche bag that pussy is.

no shit, if LBJ ever gets a championship, I'm done with the NBA for good

I'd rather see a team with the likes of Jason Terry, chris paul, najera, Staudamire, Garnett, Fisher, DWade, etc. win a title than LBJ :lol
