  • I personally would take Kyle Kuzma, Brandon Ingram, Julius Randal and Josh Hart over those remaining busters on the Cavs roster any day.

  • Na the "disease" is Dan Gilbert

  • LeBron is a celebrity.

    No, he isn't.  You haven't a clue.  If Gilbert were the problem LBJ would never have come back here.

    Call Gilbert anything you want...just don't call him cheap.

    $1000 says any one of them would know the f'n score in game 1 of the NBA Finals.

    Still cannot believe that happened

  • IMO the real "Disease" is all the critics who keep harping on "MJ's 6 RINGS" Nobody outside of Cle thinks LeBron is anything special. They think he's "decent" but he's no Kobe, MJ or Bird. You think that doesn't eat away at him? You think he isn't sick of hearing about it?  

    If he wants to be considered the GOAT, he needs at least 1 more rings to really state his case. I'd like to see him do it just to shut up the Kobe and MJ fanboys who won't shut up about his losing record in the finals. 

    I can tell you one city who's delighted that he went to the Lakers.... Boston. Now they actually might get back to the Finals

    hollywooditis
     
    The uncontollable urge to leave everything behind be it your family, your home, your history with an area and to move to Los Angeles to try to become a movie star or to be involved in the entertainment industry. Similar to "having stars in your eyes"
     
    LeBron James has acquired a bad case of Hollywooditis because the LA Laker team he went to actually really sucks and has no chance of winning anything; and all he really wants to do by going there is to schmooze and share the aroma of his asscrack with the celebrities out there who also will want to smell his asscrack; and to try to become some kind of movie mogul, even though most of the entertainment he has produced has sucked pretty badly as well.
     
  •  Rustbeltitis is a known risk factor in the development of hollywooditis.

    There may be no place like home but there are other places besides home. LeBron still does lots of charitable work in NE Ohio and that's just the truth opinion aside.

  • LeBron doesn't have Hollywooditis or any other itis he is already a true bona-fide mega superstar if anything the stars in California and anywhere else in the  world would flock to him not the other way around. 

    ......LeBron Raymone James Sr. (/ləˈbrɒn/; born December 30, 1984) is an American professional basketball player who is a free agent. He has played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) for the Cleveland Cavaliers (2003–2010; 2014–2018) and Miami Heat (2010–2014). James announced his intention to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers on July 1, 2018.[1] Often considered the best basketball player in the world and regarded by many as the greatest of all time,[2][3][4][5]James' NBA accomplishments are extensive, and include four NBA Most Valuable Player Awards, three NBA Finals MVP Awards, two Olympic gold medals, three All-Star Game MVP awards, an NBA scoring title, and is the all-time NBA playoffs scoring leader. He has also amassed fourteen NBA All-Star Game appearances, twelve All-NBA First Team designations, and five All-Defensive First Team honors.......

    ........In Miami, James won his first NBA championship in 2012, and followed that with another title a year later. He was named league MVP and NBA Finals MVP in both championship years. In 2014, James opted out of his contract with Miami after four seasons to re-sign with the Cavaliers. In 2016, James led the Cavaliers to their first NBA championship by defeating the Golden State Warriors to end Cleveland's 52-year professional sports title drought........

    ........James is considered by many people, including his fellow NBA players, to be the "face of the NBA".[308] His opinions have yielded significant influence on people who make important league decisions; for example, in 2014 he asked commissioner Adam Silverto increase the duration of the All-Star break, and the request was granted the following season.[309] On February 13, 2015, James was elected the first Vice President of the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA).[310]

    ......Throughout his career, James has been ranked by Forbes as one of the world's most influential athletes,[313][314] and in 2017, he was listed by Time as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.[315] During his first stint with the Cavaliers, he was adored by local fans, and Sherwin-Williams displayed a giant Nike-produced banner of James on its world headquarters.[316] Despite their affection for James, Cleveland fans and critics were frequently annoyed when he sported a Yankees hat when he attended Cleveland Indians baseball games versus the New York Yankees.[317] Following his actions during the 2010 free agency period and, more specifically, The Decision, he was listed as one of the world's most disliked athletes.[318] By 2013, his image had mostly recovered and he was reported by ESPN as the most popular player in the NBA for the second time in his career.[319] In 2014, he was named the most popular male athlete in America by the Harris Poll.[320] He has led the league in jersey sales six times.[321]

    He owes Cleveland nothing, they have him and him only for breaking that 52 year curse. Hollywood,  LA, California,  anywhere would be in awe of him, guess what they already are!  😉

    Wouldn't he be considered the most famous athlete in the world right now? He's an absolute mega star. 

    I was listening to a sports talk show driving home last night. The host thinks LeBron is the most valuable player in NBA history. Cavs went from 12-1 odds of winning the NBA championships to 500-1 overnight when he went to the Lakers.

    Why comment when you are going to make clueless  like this.. LeBron certainly IS a megastar....in basketball.    But he is not one in the entertainment industry....and THAT is what he wants.  Yes....other celebrities will sniff his asscrack.....that is WHY he wants to be in LA.   LeBron's time as the greatest basketball talent on the earth has a close expiration date.....but he does not want that to be the expiration date on his celebrity. Thus, he has to move into a different genre.    So, what kind of genre....what kind of occupation can he move into that will maintain for him his celebrity status?  He could go into politics.   Maybe he could run for Mayor of Akron....but that is too mundane for him...and he really doesn't want to get into a business where half the people out there will hate you just because you are a D or an R.    What else is there will will maintain his celebrity high?  Entertainment.  There are do other requirements for it other than being famous.  So there you go.  That is Hollywooditis and that is where LeBron is.

    Well....here is a comprehensive list of what he has contributed so far to the entertainment industry.   To be honest with you, nothing much here floats my boat. About the best thing that I can see is basically his own story.  90% of this is about being young and growing up black in America. So, OK, I can't relate.  I guess I should ask my nephew how much he can relate to, seeing that he and LeBron went to school together for like 6 years. I doubt there is a lot.
