Ship jumper. He had a smart guy write up that piece for him, so I respect the fact that the people around him are giving him better advice.
But I don't credit him for being the first one off a sinking ship. Bosh and Wade just can't get it done and they make too much money for that team to be any good. Well, good enough I should say. They are taking on water and the boat was only going down. Might have been a slow sink but the hole wasn't repairable.
What he needed was a team with one high paid star and maybe the last two #1 overall picks on rookie deals so he could make max money and still be on a contender for the next 4 years. Where could that be... oh yeah, but he'd have to go work for the guy who publicly called him a coward and a quitter and left it on the team website up until a week or so ago. Hmmmm.... I haven't gained respect for anyone in this.
Certainly not Lebron, not Gilbert for taking Lebron back even though he had no choice, definitely not the jersey burning fans of Cleveland, not Bosh or Wade or Allen or Miller for following around Lebron like puppy dogs hoping for a scrap of their master's dinner to fall on the floor or for the NBA teams who waited and waited on Lebron like 15yr old school girls watching varsity football practice.
