if I was lebron I would have just told him to fk off. is that show on tv somewhere? or is it just youtube? because how are kids in the "hood" suppose to see this?
I think it is a tv show. I wrote something on another forum ill quote it<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Man he acts like he is the sh*t. he came from rags himself and he still doesn't want to help no one and just wants the money for himself that selfish ba*tard. You make 20 million or more a year with merchandise and you dont want to do sh*t for the community. thats why his 22 and has no heart. he only cares about himself</div>
<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS">I have dial-up, so watching this video will take centuries. Will someone please tell me what LeBron did or said that is so horrible?</span>
he ignored a interview with the interviewer. all the other superstars had time to talk to him and tell the kids about going to school and getting a good job while lebron just ignored him and hung out with girls like a hollywood star

LOL my boi AI in it.But Yeah Lebron was getting in the car, and leaving who knows why he did not talk. Maybe he had a flight to catch some were for all you know I mean come on. And he also gotta protect him self you never know about the haters for all he knew this was just some bs, and the guy would shoot him. LOL Like for real give a guy a break.Iverson also does not stop out side when drving out to sign autographs for example in Philly. But he does sign inside if he comes out to shoot around. But those who don't get him out side start hating saying stuff. But they got money you never know who trying to stop you for all you know they about to rob your *ss.
Give me a break. This is Kobe all over again. When he does something wrong, people find a way to jump all over him. Now that LeBron didn't stop in the middle of the street for an interview doesn't make him a bad person. People are just trying to find a way to knock on him, because he hasn't done anything wrong yet.Say whatever you want about LeBron. If you think that what took place in that video was so bad of him, you need to get your head screwed on straight. Give me a break.
at people knocking on LeBron because of that. Plenty of guys ignore people trying to interview them in the streets, thats just the way athletes roll. Theres nothing wrong with that.
Whatever event this was, the interviewer approached everyone else while they were standing around, inside with other team mates and not in the line of fire. If you watched the interview, you can clearly see LeBron was already leaving, was in the middle of the street, and surrounded by security. Celebrities, Superstars are always a target for violence. You have people screaming your name for autographs and screaming obscenities. You ignore them all. But, if you arrive early at the "Q" for the shoot-a-round, LeBron does interviews, signs autographs, shake hands. He's given coats and shoes to needy kids. He holds an annual bike-a-thon in the Cleveland community, donating all the proceeds right back to the community. He is notorious for showing up and surprising kids at basketball camps. LeBron has not forgotten where he come from but, realizes he has to be cautious in public. Most of his peers and colleagues commend him on his big heart. But, It figures, some haters will always arise from the bunch, only to criticize.

I liked what AI had to say about growing up in the hood. I don't think it's a big deal if Lebron refused to do 1 freaking interview. So what? Do all players in the NBA do every interview requested? I don't think so. Give me a break.Oh yeah....I'm moving this..
<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS">I don't understand how LeBron ignoring an interviewer means he's "forgotten where he came from." Do broke people growing up get interviewed randomly in the streets? WTF? Get your facts straight, folks.</span>

And that's cool that he signs autographs actually I might make a trip to Clevland at some point just like I did to Washington Dec 24 to watch Arenas.
What about he said in the playoffs when the Cavs lost. He said that he didnt care and basketball is only a game. he doesn't have passion. his all about money

I remember after a game it was his b-day, and someone asked him if not winning the game that night would mess up his b-day he said no. But there was nothing wrong with that either why would 1 game mess up your whole b-day.I see your a Wade fan you sure you not just a Lebron hater? LOLPeople just stop hating geez he did nothing wrong it was in the middle of the f*cking street and he was leaving geez.
Here is just another prime example of how LeBron is always giving back to the kids. There was no media there, it wasn't for publicity but, he is always doing Good things like this. Post some of the Good Stuff not all the time the Bullsh*t! And stop drinking Hater-ade in the morning.http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/spor...633_soni16.html
I'm from the hood, I still live in the hood and hood news is something that will certainly touch a kid. If they watch and see's people like Earl Bonkcookies(hella nickname for him)telling people to just try and he's only 5'5" 135 then that'll give kids hope that they can go out and do it. Lebron, this is one of those situations where you don't know what he was doing. He could have been on his way out somewhere like everybody eles says, but that doesn't justify what he did. He should have let the interviewer know he had to run out or something like that. He def went Hollyhood this time. But I usually see Lebron doing interviews, a rap dvd comes out around here and Lebron is on the community section doing a interview. Who knows with that situation.
