These NBA teams don’t care about players but we want them to rush to make life decisions for them? One thing I admire about Lebron.
how is this rushed when he knew ALL year he'd be a FA? there are literally 3 things to consider

- money - which isn't an issue, he's getting the max possible wherever he signs
- location - again, something easy to know well before FA. dude knows the 1-2 places where he wants to live
- team - whether it's team culture and/or best chance to win - something else he has knowledge of well before FA and the one component that's directly affected by him and his decision

that third option isn't doing him (or potential teams) any favors the longer he's on his diva shyt. i possibly would give him a pass if it weren't for all the drama he kicked up last year with the spurs. but dude likes to play the quiet unassuming role then pull attention seeking moves like this. just like people don't let curry carry the "nice and humble" label due to his laughing and shimmying on the court, kawhi doesn't get to keep the "quiet, humble just wants to play ball" label when he's at an attention seeking diva at heart :yeshrug:

All I gotta say is fukk the mainstream media. shyt is trash. Everyone has a narrative and agenda. It's sickening. Nobody cares about reporting facts. They just wanna be the 1st ones to break the news, regardless of if it's true or not. We have 24/7 gossip and chatty patty shyt. Gotta do better. Journalism used to matter in this country.

I get what you're saying but I disagree with this. Dude could have easily made shyt easier for himself if the offense ran thru Blake Griffin more. Instead he chose to dribble the air outta the ball. Injuries to Blake happened, I know that and I don't remember all the other guards on the squad but he definitely could have made shyt easier.
That's the hilarious thing, almost every one wants to be the man and get the shots but then complain that there's not enough help. But when there's help they're complaining it doesn't go through them or they don't get enough spotlight.

They want it both ways.

No one knows if he met with Toronto yesterday. Cris Carter had said the meeting would take place in Toronto.
