What happened to days when a wigga like you would get shot for acting black?
Remember those days...hooping in the rain, sleet, snow, mud...hooping with Timbalands and boots on....trying to hoop after an ankle, foot, knee, or finger surgery or fracture...I remember once I was hooping with some homies during a storm and we only quit playing when lightening struck the backboard.
I say all that to say this....you can tell the truly great players, those who play for the love of the game and not the money....those who will play anywhere at anytime...This is what I respect the most about MJ and Kobe....and I begrudgingly suspect Timmy is this way as well since he's trying to play through bad knees...but MJ played all those years for basically peanuts...and it wasn't until I think the last 2 -3 yrs he was actually paid his worth. He played for the Love of the game which is a rare quality these days...
Now my real point in all of this is simple: ( Lebron and Shaq seem like the same kind of players) not in it for the Love of the game.

What happened to the days when men would actually make good on their bets?
We know why LeHype won't go overseas: Stern's refs aren't officiating their games. Anybody remember how he got his other nickname LeBronze?Let's stroll down memory lane, shall we?...
Medal Count
LeHype: 2
Kobe:1
Gold Medal Count
Kobe: 1
LeHype: 1***
Bronze Medal Count
LeHype: 1
Kobe: 0
***Because Kobe was on that team.![]()
Man, I like to play but I suck, even when I was young, I was one of the last guys picked. That doesn't diminish my love for the game. Still, LeBron bashes are old hat now. But it's the offseason with no end in sight for it. I haven't and won't be around for awhile for that reason. Have fun doing what you do.
I'm surprised but then again maybe I shouldn't be...you seem to have an extra passion and knowledge about the game. You seem to hoard little facts and stats about the game and that is usually the case for guys that can't play...however, I applaud your effort. Sometimes I will pick scrubs that can't play and use them as my utility guy...you know hacking people and ...but they know they better not ing shoot the ball if they playing on my squad...don't worry about it man just keep enjoying the game in whatever capacity you're physically able...
Let this here motivate you...it did for many a back in the day....
and while I'm at it...let me say RIP to Left eye...best female rapper of all time..
I still love the game and I am barely still able to dunk!

Note the 2007 'ship shirt!
LeBron doesn't love the game he loves the exposure.

Pretty much sums it up.
