If players had this same attitude in 06 we wouldn’t be where we are.
Millennials suck and are *****s

Guess you don't follow the NBA much?!? Ever heard of The Decision...?

My point exactly. I don’t want players pissing and moaning because they wanna play with Labron. Then you have Lebron demanding they bring in the players HE wants. I don’t follow the NBA at all and have no intention to.

Poor comparison. LeBron was a free agent that year.... And all the money raised in that event went to charity.

People threw a fit cause they treat players like they owe a team something. He didn't owe Cleveland anything. Those fans burning his jerseys should've been angry at the management who did everything to squander those years as he was reaching his prime. It's fair to blame him for a lot of the problems with Cleveland after he came back cause he was running the show, but those early Cavs rosters were not constructed with his output and pals involved.

Not everyone wants to be Larry Fitzgerald and stay loyal to a team with horrible management. Fitz could've joined us, Denver, or New England and caught passes from a Hall of Famer and possibly won a ring. I don't feel sorry for guys like that who stick around and waste their careers on crappy teams just to stay loyal to a team they make all the sacrifices for. John Elway was smart to avoid going to Indy after they drafted him...
