This comes a day after Jeanie Buss dropped her autobiography tweet and let the world know she wasn't a serious basketball owner. Remember when people actually believed the Lakers franchise cared more about winning championships and had more of a basketball pedigree than LeBron James? :lol:

So what if he is a millionaire, when did we start being mad at employees for wanting more money or be treated with respect?
You must have not seen Jimmy's demands for private flights and missing practices. He has been half ass'ing it for 2 years. He is making $49 million this year and $52 million next year. I have no issue with them saying no.

Not sure about the respect part.

You believe that propaganda? If those are the things that Jimmy was doing wrong where are the negative things the team was doing? I guess the Heat PR team didn't release that info.

I just think, especially from certain 76ers fans, there seems to be a lack of empathy and an expectation athletes be superhuman.

I get sidelined for weeks at a time exercising and go through recurring periods where my back kills me. I figured being around the same age you'd relate somewhat, didn't realize you were LeBron status.
:roflmao3:

Ain’t no gotdamn LeBron Status fam lol. I just look at it like this. The NBA is their primary job. It’s literally their job to make sure their body is able to perform…..their job. Gary Harris is my guy. He’ll always be a Nugget to me and I hate that injuries derailed his career. He still “street clothes 2.0” tho.

The lack of empathy comes from people that work physical 12-16 hour shift, jobs 261+ days a year and they look someone who plays 6 months out the Year with few back-to-backs, play 30 minutes out a game that last 2 1/2-3 hours. Now, I know there‘s other things like practice and workout sessions but the average fan don’t see that so they’re going to judge off what they see.

The Clippers brought Kawhi back just to play against Bron. He sat out the next game against the Bulls (they got blown out) and is resting again tonight vs. the defending champion Celtics. The stars from the 2010's have known for years, that playing against these small market teams and boring teams doesnt enhance their legacy and they don't get criticized for sitting those games out either, long as they beat the Bron and his squad, niggas and wiggers is gone hop on their dick!! Truthfully, Kawhi could rest until the Clippers play the Lakers again and nobody would notice or bat an eye. Dude became a top 75 player scoring less than Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine. :smh:
Crazy.. :smh:

Imagine if we had actual Laker fans on the board. They would actually denounce this shit.
