Yeah. Barkley is gonna have more words out there than "he who name i do not speak." dude just need to play ball and let charles talk. actions speak louder than blah blah blah... and dude cant win that war nor shut nobody up unless he delivers, multiple rings. Wade got his. Bosh really dont count. number 23 - 17 just needs to stop feeding the media and do what he could not do here. get those rings.

and even then, he will always have a cloud hanging over his head.

and this is kinda new in sports. this situation never happened before. once an alpha-player has exhasted his original team and went else where, well, we havent seen that before. and he is a man of FIRSTS right.

all he has to do is play ball and let the story write itself.

will that happen? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO because he da poster boy of the league.

It goes to show how all that attention can change someone. In the past, I viewed Lebron as a considerably poised individual for all the hype he was getting in his first 3 or 4 seasons. Now he takes the bait instead of just doing what he does best. He didn't even seem to be sure when he said he believed that race was a factor in all the scrutiny. Even if it's true it doesn't seem like he thought it out.

Barkley is funny but how many folks really take what he say's seriously? I mean he is the comedy relief on the TNT basketball package. Every now and then he will drop some truths but all in all he gets a pass to say anything because the jewels he drops from time to time gets nullified with his stupid comments. Then for him to try and talk shit about LeBron leaving the Cavs is hypocritical because he left the Sixers and went to the Suns then tried to chase a ring with Olajuwon and Drexler in Houston! Funny how he forgets all that shit when he bashes Bron for bouncing. Charles knows as well as I do that some of those folks did take it worse than others because of LeBron, a black man having the audacity to up and say I'm leaving for greener pastures. What is the difference between him doing it in an hour or five minutes? He was still leaving regardless and the people would have still been pissed. He shouldn't have did the hour special but the Cavs fans were stupid for not watching ESPN and seeing Chris Broussard a whole day earlier saying the guy was leaving for Miami and noticing that he didn't have the show in OHIO! those are two dead give aways not to mention one person who is a respected NBA journalist confirming the dude was ghost!

Who cares?!?! Watch them play, and it's pretty obvious Barkley isn't better than those guys.

.

Then why was he the leading scorer when they was all on the dream team? if Barkey so garbage compared to them how come the only American that has scored more points in a Olympic game than him is Kevin Durant? GTFOH

I realize you may not be a Barkey fan or like his stance or opinion on Lebron but lets not start saying stupid shit like he was nowhere on these other great players levels. He's one of the best Rebounders of all time and the guy was like 6"4 or 6"5 going against 6"9s and 6"11's on a nightly basis. Lebron got athletisism and passing on Charles in his prime but Charles was probably a better outside shooter, better in the clutch and had more court savy than Lebron even does now. Yeah the nigga Charles could be an asshole from time to time but he did have game. Dismissing him cuz he never had a ring to be able to talk is kinda irronic dont you think since the whole thing started because Lebron might be the next barkey....have all them good ass seasons and no titles

cosigning your post except the bold...barkley improved as a jump shooter..but i dont think he is/was a better shooter then lebron...i've seen charles during his suns and rocket years...charles took some jumpers that would make u shake your head and tell his ass to stay down low.....but i cosign the rest of your post though!

"It's Like A Movie, Just When You Think It Can't Get Any Stupider, It Gets More Stupid"

Barkley goes on to further question King James' decision making, and ESPN's continued coddling of the star.

"Sometimes you just say he’s making bad decisions and you’re like okay, he’s gonna get it together. Then he makes more bad decisions. The thing that’s interesting about LeBron, I don’t think Magic, Michael, and myself, we said we wouldn’t have did it. That’s not a criticism. We were asked a question. I don’t want to play with Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, or Michael, I want to beat them. That’s strictly basketball. The only criticism I’ve heard about LeBron and it was my biggest criticism, that decision thing was just stupid. It was stupid. The second thing when they all came out there dancing around on stage, that was silly. That’s the only thing I’ve heard LeBron get criticized about. That has nothing to do with race.

That’s what makes this last thing so stupid. That’s stupid. The only criticism of LeBron has been the decision and the one hour of our life that we can’t have back. And ESPN, oh my God. Oh my God. To go down to training camp and report everyday is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen. I’m watching yesterday and one of the guys actually said LeBron looked fierce in practice. I’m like fierce in practice? What the hell does that mean? He was fierce in the second day of training camp. You’re like come on man, he really didn’t say that did he. This summer with LeBron and all the stuff that went on is like a bad movie. You just can’t make this stuff up.”

@ the bolded...and this is why LeBron's ego is as big as it is...when you cover every little thing he does like it's important it's only a matter of time before you begin to think that maybe you really are just that important....

Thats the main reason alot of the older players are upset. Lebron could have left but playing with D-Wade, a top 3 player in the league and Bosh a top 15 player just to win multiple rings instead of being the man on really upset alot of former players.

but the thing alot of those "older" players seem to be forgetting is that they didn't win shit on their own...they may have been the man but they had good players around them, they weren't scoring 100 ppg and winning rings with just them and the coach...

once heard jordan say that he invited Charles to come to the bulls. he declined. it was a double edge sword. damned if he do, and damned if he dont.

he didnt go. why? guess he wanted to beat that dude. not join him.

CB played on 3 teams. i bet Lebitchass plays on more than 3 teams in his career. he's a journeyman now lol. a rent-a-shaq. lol

talk amongst yourselves.

Charles Barkely just needs to shut up already... he doesn't know what he woulda done because he's never been in Lebron's position and never will be... He just needs to stop hating man he keeps saying, "oh the decision was studid a hour wasted in my life"... then why the f*ck did you watch it in the first place?...
