    Remember when Randy Moss walked off the field and into the locker room with 2 seconds left on the clock?Lebron has join him in that locker room.With 6 seconds to go in the Cavs overtime loss to the Atlanta Hawks last night, Lebron walked off the court and into the locker room. He didn't stay to congratulate the other team. He didn't stay to support his teammates. He turned his back and walked out on everyone.Why is their no outrage on ESPN? No story on Yahoo about this? Because it's Lebron and not Ron Artest or Rasheed Wallace. It's "King James" "The next Great One" et al that the media has annointed him. They can't go back on their collective word now, they have to stick by him like he's their adopted son.But what Lebron did was disgusting, and he deserves to be trashed for it. The only reason it's a non-story is because it's Lebron.

    I always hated LeBron... mostly because of his attitude. I hate him even more now. Bastard.

    It's on ESPN but it's not a cover story. It's in the Intelligence Report or w/e. It's considered a rumor, not fact, but I heard about it when it happened.LeBron needs to show class. Dwyane Wade never did that in the Finals when they were down by 20+ in the first 2 games.

    LeBron has never made an "I take plays off when I feel like it" remark, so to me it's a non-issue.

    Down 7 points with like 10 Second left, it wasnt like they had any chance of coming back.Now im not backing LeBron as he clearly has to set the example here, and I would make sure he heard about it once the game was over, but to label it as 'disgusting'?!?! Cmon man.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (xpostxscript @ Nov 9 2006, 07:36 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>heres an article i foundhttp://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=Al9M...ov=ap&type=lgns</div>Written a day later after Colin Cowherd and Dan Patrick talked about it on the Radio. It happens Tuesday night and they don't talk about it until Thursday afternoon? They picked up the story because other people (Cowherd and Patrick) picked up the story. They didn't talk about it on 1st and 10 Wednesday morning, they waited until Thursday morning... until after the Radio guys broke the story.I'm happy someone broke it so that ESPN and AP writers felt obligated to say something.
