Scott430 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 I have checked around here and have not seen it mentioned. I wanted to bring it up to you all because I know there only people who saw this little stunt were at the game. During the ridiculous delay of game when No Neck took out Waterbug, our dance team started to perform. It was obvious that Williams wasn't terribly hurt and was actually getting off the floor. As Lebron started walking back towards the Cleveland bench, he purposely walked STRAIGHT through the Dance team as they did their routine. I mean he walked right across the logo at mid-court. He VERY easily could have walked to the side like everyone else did, but he wanted to be the center of attention. The entire arena booed him and I just thought it was an incredibly classless act. I am sure TNT made no mention of it, yet if that was one of our guys, they would have showed it from every angle possible. I just thought for a guy who is suppose to be the "face" of the NBA, that was a pretty low-class move. Quote

Live or Die Magic Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Did you guys notice that after the routine ended, Scotty B, made a point of saying to give a round of applause to our CLASSY Orlando Magic dancers. He was making a point. Quote
magicJones Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Yea, I had not noticed LeBron James act like this until last night. It is like he feels like he has earned his ticket to the NBA finals because Nike & ESPN have promised it to him. What really got me, is during the press conference... 'Has Pietrus done a good job of guarding you?'.. 'Oh, well that's just one guy..... and, uh... there isn't one guy.. who can, uh... guard ME' He doesn't respect 99% of the players in the NBA. I guess since he is just better than everyone he should be handed the trophy. Quote
kyzman Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Completely agree - I was there and thought it was completely classless on Lebron's part to walk through during the routine. If it was done by accident, I could see giving a pass, but he looked at his bench as he was doing so deliberately. Quote
Maestro Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 Okay, so LeBron wants to get elbowed. We can't allow this guy to mess with our Women like that! Please give Foyle three minutes on the floor, so that he can elbow LeBron! Quote

JasonLynx Posted May 25, 2009 Report Posted May 25, 2009 I think the cav's coach marched through also. Either that or an assistant. Major disrespectful! Quote
