Good thing they got Ray back. He may have had some poor performances during the playoffs, but I think he can still be one of the leaders of the team!

Jermaine O'Neal? You mean the same Jermaine O'Neal that was beyond washed up all year and into their 1st round exit vs. Boston? The same O'Neal that could care less anymore and is injured at least once a year? The same O'Neal that can't rebound?
C's better hope Harangody develops FAST.

The Lebron "Decision" saga is very off-putting. The closest display of narcissisum that I can ever recall next to this is Brett Farvre's will I or won't I, garbage. However, it doesn't even approach the ego-mania displayed by young Mr. James. Michael Jordan had class, this guy has none. I hope he never gets a ring.
He tipped his hand when he went postal when that high school kid dunked on him at his camp a couple of years ago, then again when he was a complete bad sport after losing in 2009. I suspect that he was coached this year and didn't stomp off the floor like a diva. But this is beyond the pale. It sounds like he made this decision a while ago and went through the exercise just to have his butt kissed………..disgusting.
