    He should have atleast went to the interview and said something. Even if it would be short atleast he would be there.

    I said it before in a previous thread. "King" James needs to look up the word "Humble".

    Yes, LeBron was wrong after game 6 but talking to David Stern about this is unnecessary.

    Why did you want to hear LeBron after such a loss? With the heat of the moment, and the anger he had, we'd probably be saying now "wow...that LeBron...such a loser...I've lost all respect for him". Instead of going and saying something stupid, he decided to shut up...and still everybody calls it a sore loser, and everybody is losing respect for him.

    The lesson, as always.....you can't win.

    LeBron could have atleast issued a statement after the game without taking any questions?

    Dude is a "role model". What is he teaching kids through his actions? He could have at the very least had a PR guy release a statement.

    See I could really care less about the media interview, he could have did that the next day after he cooled off like he did. But my beef with him is not shaking hands with some of the Magic players, that was completely disrespectful and classless. And the fact he said he sent them a congratulatory text message made me lose even more respect for him. The fact is, being who he is, he should have stayed and said a few words, even if it was the obvious "we played are best, and we are disappointed".
