I agree I know is frustrating to lose after a great season but you have to show some class. He just got beat by a better team.
How does he not congratulate Dwight or talk to the press after?
IF kobe pulled that ish yall we would be killing him ...
Anyway Skip Bayless will finally criticize Lebron and he would deserve it ...for one of the few times in his career.
Lebron came up small on the court and off ...he had no problem talking after his "shot"

Meh. He did the same thing after we swept them in 07. I can't remember if he addressed the press though.
he should be used to losing in the playoffs
he has won nothing yet
he is a baby though in basketball he is always used to getting his way
I hated when Isiah did the same to MJ (and i wasnt not a huge MJ jockrider) ...this is not to bash Lebron. Kobe took his medicine last year even with tears in his eyes ...Melo spoke after losing in the WCF so did Chauncey.
He stepped of the court without shaking hands at the end of game 7 vs Pistons in 2006.
HE HAS NO CLASS
there is a reason I do not care for him
Found this pic on a Magic forum discussing the same topic...

Dude was upset. I don't think I ever see him sticking around on the court after any loss, even at home in Cleveland. I understand he should handle it better being the superstar that he is. But, people making a big deal about it are just trying to find things to nit pick about the kid and to kick him while he's down.
Big ing deal
But how do you come up with all of these elaborate celebrations and not find time to salute your opponent? You rub it in their faces when you're on a roll but won't even give them dap when they get the best of you?
HE should of learned his lesson. Plus why not come out like Tim Tebow? That was the classiest press address after a loss. Not that his and his team's talent wasnt part of it but they had less talent than USC but when your leader come out and takes responsibility for the loss and promises to get better and help his team get better that is talent, leadership, heart and class!Lebron should have more than a College Senior ...
ah poor little baby
if he can not handle it he can go to europe
Ironic how lakers fans are talking about how classy somebody else is.
I don't think you can compare this to Isiah and what he did. Isiah's walking off the court was 100 times worse. First of all, it was before the game had officially ended. And, he walked right past the Chicago Bulls bench. AND, he led several of his teammates in walking off the court purposely neglecting everyone on that Bulls bench. Isiah was trying to be a jackass to Jordan and the Bulls. He was a class A punk for that one. And, this from a huge Isiah fan and someone who isn't a fan of LeBron.
LeBron walked off after the game was over and didn't make a big production about it. Don't think the two are comparable.
he can have the break at mcdonalds not spurstalk
Lebron didn't go to college.
Meh I dont' really care. Showing respect/being a good sport in defeat is good, but I'm sure nobody on the Magic give a .
Shut the up God!
(directed at ducks, what a FGT)
Piss poor leadership by Lebron right there.
Agree that was worse but like you said tourself Isiah is was an asshole on the court. Lebron is hyped as the ultimate teammate and leader. By many media guys like simmons . Based on that that is a blow to his image/aura. if he is such a great teammate why not lift their spirits after? Why not take the media scrutiny off of them (because the media will ultimately blame them not Lebron for this series loss?) by standing behind his guys?
Look I'm not nitpicking here. I think Lebron is the 2nd best player in the world. MY op made 2 points first -it was classless. The 2nd if Kobe did that this board would be in flames from the haters ...Lebron should not get a pass because it was a tough loss.
Also why give the Magic more fuel for next season? Yes it was no where near as bad as the Pistons vs. Bulls but if Im the Magic i still remember that.
He should of congratulated Orlando and spoke to the media, if the nuggets did it he could to
I thought it was a complete move by Lebron.
