I admit it's one of the words I think of every time I see Lebron, even though I know that's pretty mean and innaccurate of special people. Special people don't think the world revolves around them and don't try to take the easy way out.

The new insult should be "That's Lebron"

It's a fair question, and I have heard much worse questions throughout the years and never seen a "star," player conduct themselves in such a manner.

go back and listen to the question she asked spolestra.. she asked a 5 minute question and wouldnt let him answer it... and the way she asked the question to wade and james was in a rambling matter that didnt make much sense

I find listening to spoelstra to be alot worse than listening to her.  He isn't exactly the polished public speaker himself.  Go back and listen to his rope-a-dope speech.  One of the more embarrassing moments that "Tnt's Mic'd up" has ever captured

I watched it 3 times and there is nothing wrong with how she asked the question, it was a fair, well worded question, and lebron responded like a classless jerk

not a big deal, bryant shouldn't have been punished, and neither should james. what does she want wade to say? " yeah i'm dirty, i wish i broke his back instead of his arm." dumb question from someone who should not be there to ask the question in the first place. the question that should be asked is, "aren't you two embarrassed that a nobody like Anthony is only the reason this game was even close."

I'm curious who the reporter was and how long she's been covering the NBA to ask that kind of a stupid question.

It wasn't even really a question, it was almost more of an insinuation that his play was dirty.  So if anybody calls that a terrible question, I agree.  I can understand that he'd (wade) be p---ed at that question, but lebron should let wade handle that.  That was foolish for him to mutter that.

No, it was not a stupid statement/question. She was just giving him a dose of reality by asking what does he think about people thinking his is a "dirty player." Many people assumed he was after the behavior he displayed. He needed to clear up that perception folks may have of him. He handled it immaturely as did his teammate.

I hate Lebron, but I got to be honest and say I laughed pretty hard after hearing that. It was a terrible question.

How was it a terrible question? he's getting that rep around the league. If you want to say he plays "with a chip on his shoulder" or "close to the line" and not dirty, fine, that's a different discussion, but lets not pretend there isn't a perception that he does everything he can to make sure his opponents pay the price for guarding him physically every night.

and secondly, it wasn't a stupid question because she got exactly what she wanted. She phrased it in a very confrontational way, basically saying "people say your a dirty player, does that tick you off?" looking for a reaction and she got a great immature sound byte out of both of them that's being replayed countless times. That's her job.

I have literally no problem with that. He's still an arrogant prick, though.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.
