Yea I'm not buying the "broken" hand thing. Whiteboards aren't that sturdy. Bruised or sore, maybe. But a flimsy, plastic whiteboard isn't doing that much damage.

I think a "contusion" is a bruise.

My only question is, did he punch the white board before or after the interview with that very intelligent reporter?

“The Cramps” turns into “The Broken hand”. That’s the kind of things that makes me dislike him. You lost, owned it, don’t start whining, stand up for it.

I don’t buy it a bit, he wouldn’t have been able to shoot or dribble on an “essentially broken” hand, Will it’s not substitute for some things, but about the greetings and fists pumps, well, pain killers and adreline do wonders. The reason I’m not buying it, is not he video, but the fact that Lebron is always aware of what’s best for him, and he wouldn’t jeopardize this summer, his career or the future of his brand for a clearly lost cause (after JR blunder, it was)

He is not a Cavalier, he is LebronCorp. But that is not among my complaints about him, remember Grant Hill’s last year in Detroit? I’m pretty sure he would do completely different if given the chance. Players have the right to put themselves before the team.

It would explain his inability to hit a three the last couple games.

That's what I can't stand. I don't like the LeBron Show.

And that's one of things I appreciate about the Warriors. It's not all about Durant. It's not all about Curry. It's not this drama-fest.

They do a phenomenal job of keeping drama in-house and off the headlines.

Havent there been a few quotes the last few days that suggest there was drama on the team behind closed doors?

So? They have a long way to go to match the drama of the LeBron show.

To be honest, in a weird way, I'm glad the Suns aren't contending right now.

With the competitive balance more wrecked than ever now in my 25 + years of watching, it's nice to envisage the Suns on their own island, separate from all that. And hopefully on an upward trajectory.

Nice scene but that movie was such a let down after the Dark Knight
