    Lebron doesn't seem like his hearts in it. Is he fatigued by the pace? Why isn't he taking over in the end? He's Mr. team guy according to himself and his lifelong fans but he misses a defensive assignment and throws his hands up blaming his teammates. His teammates fight and first thing he does is save cp3. I get it, he is defusing the situation but its not a good look. Defuse it by holding your teammates back. Did lebron come here for the lakers or everything else that LA brings? Only two games....Too early to say obviously but I dont like what i've seen from him so far.

    Kind of a lackluster performance, especially in the fourth. Friends or not, didn't really like him consoling CP3 so much there. How is Rondo supposed to react to that?

    I'd like to see Lebron show a little more pride in the P&G, but I guess he hasn't been wearing it that long.

    I was disappointed with him this game, he had several defensive lapses and missed some gimmies and open 3's. I'm not sure if it's age, finals fatigue or what but hopefully he plays like himself soon, to get the team to feed off of him.

    Kind of disappointed he didn't go to Ingram as well to talk.to him, and give him a reassuring moment as a vet/leader teammate. I don't mind the CP3 thing, but wish he did the same for BI, to build a stronger bond.

    I'm more mad about his lackluster performance than this defusing Cb3 thing some of you are crazy about.
    It's game 2 but dude looks like he needs a pit stop in Miami.

    So in that regard, Melo really tight with BI then.

    Also notice, BI is the farthest away from the action and gets to Rondo's defense before Lance and Zo do...I guess they wack teammates as well. Getdaf***outta here!

    Yeah this is a bad look for LeBron. Although he was right there with Paul and instinctively wrestled him out of the melee. Should have done that and then left him. If he still comes back then he should push him away forcefully like Ingram did to Harden.

    You guys aren't the only ones who feel that way. More and more NBA players are weighing in on this mess

    I didn't like how he was consoling CP3. I get that they are like BFFs, but he should have separated him from the fight and left it at that. No need to be embracing the guy all the way to the Rockets bench.

    I still root for him because my love for the Lakers is bigger but he clearly showed the fakery ( is it a word ?) in him

    I'll keep this short.

    CP2 is the president of the NBPA.

    Vasashi, are you ok with Lebron talking/walking with his arm around CP3’s shoulder all the way back to the Rockets bench also? This is after all the hoopla died down. It’s one thing to separate people during a fight. It’s another to not go to your team bench and support your teammates. What kind of message does that send to Rondo and BI?

    Everyone told me this summer I had to support Lebron now that he’s a Laker and you are right. But if Lebron doesn’t support his own teammates, f him and the horse he rode in on.

    It's nothing new. He is a douchenozzle.

    We can only hope we get a title out of it.

    I feel dirty.

    Just me, but in January I’m trading Lebron and his douchiness for an amazing package of talent. Maybe even a Kawhi package if healthy.

    We’ll never get more for him. We’ll have about 6 months of exposure to the young guys to learn the good he can bring. After that, it’s pretty much downhill from there.

    Very little defensive effort.
    Already blaming others.
    Declining athlete who is pretty easily neutralized in the last 5 minutes
    Empty stat stuffer
    Banish That mofo to Canada and let him run his media empire from up there

    Still a b**** Tho —- Noah, sirronstuff, and a number of NBA players disappointed with what they saw.

    Biggest mistake signing in the history of Western Civilization

    this. people can talk about who's street enough and such, but lebron should have taken the game over and won it after that. like superstars do at home in such situations. i know, i seen 'em.
