At the same time, not even Miami fans, can possibly defend the disrespectful manner in which James made the announcement to the Cavs owner and his loyal legion of fans who spent hard earned money in a depressed economy to buy James’ gear.

That being said, I don’t think James thought beyond the announcement. While this media disaster is the best thing that could have happened to the NBA (I know I can’t wait for the season to start) outside of Florida, James is now commercially impotent as fans from every team but Miami sympathize with Cleveland’s fans. And not only will James’ toxic image affect his ability to sell gear outside of Florida, but the entire Miami Heat organization will suffer from guilt by association.

Can’t wait for the season to start.

And that is the real story out of all of this: For all of his physical talent, Lebrunaway has admitted that at the end of the day he is no Jordan and no Kobe, but merely a role player on a team of superstars. Do you think you would have ever heard Jordan or Kobe mention and even be prouf of the fact that he doesn’t have to be “on” every night and be the “go-to” guy every night? The answer is NO. They relish that role and Lebrunaway obviously does not. That’s fine and all, but since that is the case, stop referring to him as the King or even the Prince. In Gilligan’s Island parlance, D-wade is the Skipper and Lebrunaway is his little Buddy and that much has been established. Jordan was King of the NBA realm. Kobe is king of the current realm. Lebrunaway just admitted via an hour long media masturbationfest with himself that he is not and never was capable of mentally being the King. He is a freakishly talented and equally freakishly stupid and self loving duke at best as evidenced by “the decision”.

The issue is not that Lebrunaway left, because that was his right. It is how and where. He had many choices in “the decision” and from the perspective of what his legacy will now be and how this will affect the Lebrunaway “brand” for marketing, he just took an immense shit in his hat. Add to this that there will forever be a debate now attached to Lebrunaways future rings of who was the best player on the Heat an none of this played out well. I’m not sure if he is that stupid or if his high school educated posse that makes up LRMR is that stupid, but whoever is in charge dropped the ball big time. But then again, Lebrunaway always has been dropping the ball when it matters most, so why should we have expected different here?
