    he's not afraid to post people up. Clearly, someone other than the Kang has been teaching him how to play.

    The "big" LBJ news today: apparently he stopped following the Cavs on twitter. Whatever that means.

    Kids today and their social media, I don't get any of it. (LeBron is like 8 months younger than me)

    LeBron: "Just feel much better than I did last year, my body has responded well to some of the changes I've made ... Last year I missed a career high in games in a season and I didn't like that personally, so I just went back to the basics, changed some things in my body."

    hmmm..... we know lebron

    When asked about deleting the Cavs from his Twitter, he quickly said "next question", but interestingly, had the Cavs PR right next to him who also said "next question" to ensure it was not asked again from the reporters or else lose media credentials.

    Yeah he's kind of turned this into a story when it didn't actually have to be...

    He said "next question" then when the next question came (a normal one like "how did you play so well?"), he stumbled on that and then bailed on the media session without answering anymore questions.

    Then the next day no one followed up with the line of questioning meaning either they didn't want to upset LeBron or the PR guys didn't let the media guys ask.

    I've said it a bunch of times before and I'll say it again, LeBron loves drama and attention. It's that simple, he's childish. He's got too much influence and personnel moves with that franchise, and he's positioned himself to really be the one in charge all along, as he can walk this summer. He says the unfollowing the Cavs Twitter thing was about blocking out media for the playoffs, which is fine, but come on, like he didn't know the media that it would also create. Plus the playoffs are weeks away. LeBron wants the Cavs on edge, probably from ownership on down to his teammates. Maybe that isn't even a bad strategy, I dunno, we will see.

    The beginning of the end? If the media turns against LeBron, he's basically Carmelo Anthony. Burn.

    Imagine him leaving to go back to Miami this summer. How great would that be?

    I honestly don't think so. The only place that'd be surprised or upset is Cleveland. I know that's important to him and all, but so is winning a title and he won't win one in Cleveland.

    It would absolutely be castrophic for his image. He already took a big hit when he left the first time and now he's gonna leave again I mean really? Find a way to make it work LeBron if you're so great. How much more help does the guy need? He's already got two All Stars and some decent complimentary pieces as well. If he bolts again it just makes him look soft. Just leaving anytime things get tough and back in his letter he even said it's gonna take time to get back to a championship level.

    That's how it ought to be reported in the Media too, far as I'm concerned. But screw Gilbert. The 2 deserve each other.

    I hope Lebron leaves, so that Gilbert has another hissy fit and writes another comic sans letter.

    So...Let's say Lebron wants to come here and team up with Durant...So we'd be sporting Russell/Clarkson/Durant/LBJ/Whoever we trade the pick and Randle for at center.

    Could you guys root for that team? I mean, I'm getting real close (if I'm not already there) to where there is no situation I could stomach LBJ being a Laker. With Nance, Lou Williams, and veteran ring chasers, that team is instantly a title contender. But winning titles with LBJ? I'm not sure I could even watch anymore.
