I watches sport and the decision did not make a mockery out of sports jut the player, it didn’t take an hour special for the world to know what team LeBron James had decided to go to. He should have just told everyone, but he decided to drag it out instead. It just put focus on him as being selfish. The other teams were upset that he did not play for them. The fans said bad things and burned jersey and other stuff because of his decision. Cleveland is really done with him.
Yes I think he will suffer some backlash for the way he announced the team he was going to even though I think he had already decided where he was going and he didn’t decide overnight. He did have the right to go wherever he wanted to and that was fine. Like he said this is his job and a business. I just think he went about it the wrong way in telling the public. One good thing was that the money from the sponsors went to support the Boys and Girls Club.
I think ESPN should have covered the event impartially, but they were in it for the ratings, publicity and the money. They made way to big of a deal out of LeBron decision. They knew if they did it that way it ESPN ratings would shoot through the roof for that hour. Websites of other teams were crashing trying to find out what team he was going to and I think ESPN already knew. I like ESPN and I don’t think it is just an entertainment channel. I just think they could have made a better decision in the way it was presented.
