Lebron James quotes are hit or miss for the most part.
But, this quote is one of the realest things he has ever said.
“Everyone keeps comparing all these guys’ situations to mine,” James said.
“I fulfilled my contract in Cleveland. I was an unrestricted free agent and I could have done whatever I wanted to do. I was free, that’s what the collective bargaining is all about. That’s why the rules is put in like that. … I think the best thing about (Howard) is he’s happy. The organization is happy that he’s staying and they can move on with their season. But none of their situations — not Chris Paul, not Carmelo Anthony, not Dwight Howard — none of their situations is like mine.”
100% correct.
I have stressed this from the beginning, Lebron fulfilled his contract and was a FREE AGENT. The keyword being FREE. If he wanted to play for the Allen Wranglers that would have been his choice.
How he went about announcing where he was going was questionable, but him leaving no one should have any issues with that.
If you have the ability to choose where you want to work, do you want someone telling you what you SHOULD do or are you going to do what is best for you?
Lebron did what is best for him and if that bothers you, then it is you with the problem not Lebron.
