hall of fame speech...
dont really think its a jab at MJ... just trying to point out the fact that his legacy is so called "ruined" to the point that no one is at his hall of fame introduction.

What should he do: Stay in Cold ***$ Cleveland with a dead ***$$$ city or go to Miami a city that has a decent economy, beautiful weather, and hot chicks 24/7 while playing with 2 future hall of famers? Sometimes people gotta quit sucking the sac and keep it movin. Yall (the fans) actin like females in a breakup sometimes...STRAIGHT TRIPPIN ("O LEBRON LEFT CLEVELAND AND I LOVED HIM THERE SO NOW I HATE HIM, EVEN THOUGH HE WAS THERE FOR 7 YEARS AND WE COULDN'T FIND A WAY TO WORK IT OUT" ETC)...when it comes down to the fact that yall don't even know Lebron personally. So what should he do?

i know Im late but damn this dude preetty much summed it up...

Thx bruh, sometimes it just kills me how sensitive people are with things they have nothing to do with..It's entertainment...This is no different than a good wrestler going bad on WWE...Some fans gone stick around some aint(but once he start winning watch everyone come back and hop on his sack for it happens waaaaaaaaaaay too often), we all know why majority of the fans left, so why do they keep telling us the same thing? People kill me. I could care less what another man is doing with his life.. Especially if it's benefiting his future.
 
Just tried these on and they feel like they fit small.
For a reference I wear a sz 11 comfortably ( meaning with a little space) in Kobe V and Hyperfuse.
So Unfortunately i had to pass 11.5 would look horrible on Me.

I hope you'll have better luck than me.
 
Boo @ the date change for the China VIII's.

I'm waiting on my pair via UPS now. I hope they run small as people are saying. The VII's fit effed up my psyche.

^Damn sorry to hear that....I'm supposed to wear an 11.5, but I look goofy with such long shoes so I tend to wear 11 or 10.5, sometimes it might annoy my feet just a tad bit, but overrall, I can live with it.

Thats b/c most of you guys in this thread are only concerned about KICKS. I think most of you also missed the point that some of us (atleast me) was making. Life is bigger then just whether or not Nike releases a HWC or not! & if you could care less about a human being surviving & surpporting his family (even if its dependent on another man's decision) then shame on you. We are all one pink slip away from selling eveyr pair of kicks we have!

what?.. its not that we only care about his kicks.. it just that like royal said, people look into his desicion to hard.. his legacy, his stats and him being a " sidekick" to d wade. C'mon man.

do we really care about all that? like royal said its all entertainment thats it.. I think people are sad that they won't see him be the next MJ, or see him score 81 + points and shatter all those

records..  yes he might have taken the "easy way out" and signed with a team with better players. and i just wanna throw this out, Lebron hasn't had any huge injury's yet.

and what if he signed a 7 yr deal with the cavs and his 3 or 4th season, blow or break some bone trying to be what people what him to be. #justsaying



the last 2 or 3 sentences didn't make sense to me bro..

Fresh, First of all I want to commend you on this debate. The one thing that you never do is get angry & start cussing & attacking another man. That is class. Second i see your point clearly, I just don't see how people would basically say who cares about someone else lively hood. So let's get back to the VIIIs.

 I bought the Chinas in my true size & these things hurt!!! A half size up is much better!
