Lebron James Exhibits His Inner Jonathan Papelbon

Has anyone seen Baby LBJ's pacifier?

Lebron is quickly becoming way too painful to watch. He's supposed to be the second coming of Michael Jordan on steroids and I feel like every time I watch him drive the lane he wants an and-one, as if it's owed to him because he's Lebron or because his "frail" body can't handle a little contact. And by "frail" I mean freak-like body that shouldn't be so sensitive.

Even with Lebron dominating the Pistons in recent years, I've never really had a problem with him. He seems like he has a lot of fun playing the game and there's no denying his Jordanly talent. Over the final few months of last season and the first couple of this season, I haven't been able to watch five minutes of a game involving Lebron without wanting to throw my remote at the TV hoping it'll go through and somehow hit Lebron in the head and get him to STFU.

Well, I'm sure you heard about tonight's little shout match he had with Joakim Noah. Apparently Noah told Lebron to quit the shenanigans and just play basketball. Lebron took exception and started to walk toward Noah after he pimped a free throw. Noah proceeded to call Lebron a bitch and instantly went up about five notches in my book (which puts him at like 3,489).

What was Noah talking about?

Lebron dancing like he's Jonathan Papeldouche:

Unacceptable Lebron. You're losing all kinds of man points by constantly whining and dancing like a douche before games. Be silly, have fun, but don't emulate anything Papelbitch does.

That was a douche of a thing to do. Kudos to Joakim Noah.

Of all people to get called out by, it's gotta suck to have Noah think what you are doing is dumb. That dude is as weird as they come and he thinks LeBron is a douche...that's just embarrassing for his Royal Whineness.

Listen, LeBron is LeBron because he has earned that right. JoAnn Noah has his antics too, screaming at the top of his lungs after a dunk, screaming all the way down the court. If anyone is a whiner, take a closer look at JoeKim and how immature he, he cries more on the court than LeBron. And you call out The King, C'MON MAN!!!!!!!! It is what it is, the funny thing is, your the one that sounds like the whiner in your post. Thanks, Go Bulls!!!!!!!!

Was it just the video, or was LeBron wearing a pink sleeve on his arm?

Tlayne, could you be a bigger LBJ homer?

"Go Bulls!" my ass. If you were anything but an LBJ homer you'd be disgusted in his antics.

"Listen, LeBron is LeBron because he has earned that right."
How exactly? He's one a single MVP. Last season... same season where he performed his cry-baby act post getting beat up by the Orlando Magic.
There are quite a few more accomplished players around, and you don't see this scumbag douchery from them.

"If you call out The King"... do you realise how stupid that sounds?
Joakim Noah was right on the money, LeBron was acting like an asshat and it was good to see him finally get called out.
