Lebron James: Hero or Manchild?

[Hwen Hoshino]

What is the prevalent view around here?

[SuburbanFarmer]

Cleveland seems to be just fine with him - even beginning to elevate him to Icon status.

Gone is the memory of him using and losing them for a ring, the slut's back and it feels guuuuud. In my opinion, he's shown his character, but perhaps he's really grown up. Time will tell, if he jumps town again for a contract, or if he sticks around.

Wouldn't call him a hero, but I wouldn't call him much of a manchild anymore.

Granted, I stopped watching ESPN, so I don't hear about LeBron on the regular. He could still be acting like a manbaby and I could be missing it. I do still see him complaining about calls and gesticulating wildly when one doesn't go his way, but that's the M.O. for just about every NBA player not on the Spurs.

Unless he butchers Space Jam 2.... then fuck him.

Hew could still fuck you in CLE considering how childish he still is. He won't have to leave for that. And you are damn lucky Draymond Green was not suspended earlier.

You think playing kids games when blowing out the Knicks for something Phil Jackson said is the sign of maturity?

Was that him dicking around with the water bottle challenge cause of that stupid 'posse' comment situation? (Had to google it cause I really only check box scores for games I don't watch)

Yeah, not a good look.

I was thinking more of the cramps shit and him disappearing in the 4th quarter/quitting... that kinda thing. Don't see that as much anymore.

Give it time. He might surprise you.

About two weeks ago Kmele talked about him on TFC. He got criticized for something and he played the race card. It was pretty childish.

LeBron acting like giant manchild would not surprise me at all.

I guess with the more I avoided listening/reading/watching anything 'LeBron' when I could, I forgot about him acting like a baby. Out of sight, out of mind I guess.
