Lebron James (Los Angeles Lakers)

Just let LeBron play ball, it's what he does

The choice for LeBron James this summer was never going to be Team USA basketball or Sudoku.
He wasn't about to flip a coin.
Heads: Help the U.S. qualify for the 2008 Olympics.

Tails: Fold himself into the Lotus for daily meditation while his healing body and expanded mind become one with the universe.
Join a book club or run the floor with Kobe? It wasn't coming down to that.

LeBron James received a flirty lap dance from an attractive young lady at Butter on Monday night, while Jay-Z talked with a model-esque blond for an hour at the same table. Also in the room were co-owner Scott Sartiano, his girlfriend Jamie-Lynn Sigler and her pal Lance Bass.

LeBron proves he's fully able to take a joke

By George M. Thomas

You gotta give LeBron James some serious props after his recent stint hosting ESPN's ESPYs this past weekend.
But I'm certainly praying that after his take on Bobby Brown's smash hit My Prerogative, complete with 1980s era Gumby 'do, he's not planning to go after a recording contract. James showed something that few athletes ever do -- a willingness to poke fun at themselves.
There was James making fun of the entire ``king'' persona right down to someone kissing his ring. Anyone who took it for more than what it was, a gag, has no sense of humor.

thats a joke right. He was more mature at 18 then I was at 25.
You should see his new house in Bath behind the akron general wellness center .Looks like a hotel
im pretty sure it was a joke, but just wondering what being shy has to do with maturity and the size of a house?

maturity gives you the confidence to talk in front of people/crowds.
If he was ever was shy he would have showed it when he was 15 and in the news/TV a lot.

About his house, its just amazing . Now , I know why every dang road/highway in AKRON area is getting fixed up now.

LeBron James of the Cavaliers will be the host of the season premiere of Saturday Night Live in September.


CLEVELAND -- Cavaliers All-Star forward LeBron James, fresh off co-hosting the ESPY Awards earlier this month, will be the host of the season premiere of Saturday Night Live in September, an NBC spokesman confirmed yesterday.
James, 22, will be the latest prominent athlete to be the host of SNL, following in the footsteps of his boyhood idol, NBA superstar Michael Jordan, who was host in 1991. Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning appeared on the show last season.

That will be un to watch. LBJ is a character. I know it's way early, but I'm afraid LeBron the brand is going to outgrow Cleveland by the time his contract is up.


Which is why if they don't go out and get someone to help him NOW, Cleveland will never win a championship. Sad to say, but I believe its the truth.

Bryant leads blue team to victory in U.S. scrimmage - Olympics - Yahoo! Sports

Lebron; said:
Kidd looked sharp in his return to the national team, setting up James for three dunks in the first half.

"This is a treat," James said of playing with Kidd, whom he calls the best point guard in the NBA. "I don't have that luxury on my team back in Cleveland. It's like a dream of mine."

I wish someone could convince the Nets to take Hughes +1 for Kidd. I could only imagine what a lineup of Kidd, Pavlovic/Gibson, and Lebron would be able to do.

if anyone didnt watch the USA Blue White scrimmage it was actually a very entertaining game, LeBron had some nice dunks and was really his usual self except for the last shot of the game. Kevin Durant played an excellent game, i beleive he ended up with 22 points but the 2nd half was pretty much the Durant show. Just seeing all the talent on both sides of the court is scary, it would be a major shock to see us NOT win the FIBA Americas. But just imagine the guys that WONT make the team, our B team would still be one of if not the best in the world.
