Lebron James is tired

And those who say he averages 37 minutes, that is only because in the 4-5 blowout wins the Heat had so far this season he only played right around 30 minutes per game. In the four losses which were all close games, he averages 43-44 minutes per game. Which do you think is easier? Playing 37 minutes every single night throughout the season, or switching between playing 30 minutes one night and playing 45 minutes the next?

In the end, it doesn't matter what LeBron says. Haters gonna hate. They gonna search the Internets, find some quote of his, start a thread, and they gonna hate. And there's plenty of them.

*i start the thread and i dont hate Lebron
*i support lebron apparel and plan on getting my first pair of lebrons which is Lebron 8
*being critical of a stupid statement isnt hate
*learn the definition of hate before you swing it like a louisville slugger
*i want Lebron too succeed but he needs 2 shut his mouth when it comes to making comments
*never will i defend a man who make excuses just get the job done fans dont wanna hear you TIRED and i know Pat Riley dont wanna hear that

*"It got blew up out of proportion, saying that I told coach Spo [Erik Spoelstra] that he's playing me too much and he's a bad coach," James said before Miami's game Saturday against the visiting Toronto Raptors. "You kind of understand sometimes what Randy Moss was talking about when he said, 'I will not be answering any more questions.' Because every time I say something, it gets turned out of character."

 im biggest Randy Moss fan but im gonna be honest
*He dont give 100 percent so is Lebron admitting he dont wanna give 100 percent either and he wanna play when he wants to play so thats why he claiming he tired????
*He should of just apologized to his coach,fans,and organization also just be quiet why is Randy "Lazy" Moss being mention by you


What should I do? Should I not talk to the media no more?

LeBron is losing respect at an alarming rate.
First he waits until the last week of FA to tell everyone where hes going.. Not to mention the "Decision" TV show
Then he blames the backlash on Racism
Then he claims they aren't that good because he's playing too much..

C'mon LeBron... Man up.. Take responsibility.. stop blaming everyone else, it's making you sound dumb

This speaks to a greater issue though: if the 24/7 news cycle and social media existed in Jordan's prime, we wouldn't look at him in the same light (or any other legend, for that matter). We all know the stories now of his insane competitiveness, but they were so marginalized because reporters dared not say what was really going on. If Jordan played today, it wouldn't matter how much he lit up the score board. We'd analyze him, and there'd be enough people saying "wow, this guy is an effin' a-hole" that the legend wouldn't stick. Again, he could score 40 a game, and add 6 and 6 with it, and it wouldn't matter.

Thats whats being argued about here. Its not about Lebron being a douche, its about him not being competitive. I do agree, we would have different image of MJ, but him being lazy and having no heart would not be apart of that image.

i think this is a very true statement. 

people wouldnt be trippin sayin that he's too competitive... or he wants to win too bad...

Spolestra is going to lose his job. Riley will come and put a fire under their %+$$+. Lebron needs exercise discretion, grow a pair and do as coach says.

And I think that's the underlying story here. This definitely doesn't add to his credibility as a coach.

if jordan or kobe or any athlete who's one of the best in their respective sport publicly said the same thing to the media after a game against a team that knocked you out the playoffs 2 of the past 3 seasons and spoiled your debut, the thread would get the same results
