The second segment in our sure-to-be-beaten-into-the-ground on-going segment “LeBron James’ Lifelong Search for Friendship,” comes to us courtesy of Rachel Nichols and ESPN.

LeBron recently sat down with Nichols and discussed his role as the NBA’s villain, a role he is ready to abandon. Being the bad guy means less friends, which means more LeBron tears.

“I got to this point by playing this game a certain way, (I’m) getting back to loving the game and having fun with the game,” LeBron said. Welp that wraps it up, I’m done hating LeBron for stabbing millions of fans in the back. Now that he is just a regular guy, I am all about the Heat this season. I was under the impression that dangling your return to your hometown team (in a city that was struggling to get by) just to pull the rug out from under them and flee to South Beach was a jerk move. But LeBron is a fun guy, so I must have been wrong.

Yet another PR move by team LeBron to gain public sympathy for a man who is a millionaire for throwing a ball near iron sometimes.

“I’m not here to ask for any sympathy or ask for any apologies, just letting people know what I am, and who I am,” James said. “Win, lose, or draw, I’m playing because I’m grateful that I’m a kid from Akron, Ohio, that made it to the NBA, that made his dream come a reality. That’s what I’m happy about, so I can’t take it for granted.”

Akron? Oh, ok. I had forgotten where he was from. But not as quickly as he did.

Ever since “The Decision,” LeBron James has been quite lonely near the top. Everyone in Miami is happy to have him, but they still worship Dwayne Wade as their true savior and leader, while everyone back in LeBron’s home state of Ohio now hates him as a traitor, Benedict Arnold-ing his way down to South Beach. It has become quite apparent that LeBron, still a young man, is hurt, and he has done everything to try and make friends. bet365 sports He’s the Richie Rich of the NBA: to us it appears he has it all, but actually he just has a lonely roller coaster in his backyard and a silly driver named Cadbury. كيفية لعبة روليت

LeBron’s search for friendship has most likely been going on his entire life. While he has been insurmountably popular, that does not translate to well-liked. بيت 365 Isolated due to his talent, LeBron just wants the love an affection of all of us, but he has absolutely no idea how to get it.

Here’s today’s example:

During a charity flag football game in his home of Akron, Ohio (just the fact that he is having a flag football game in his hometown reeks of “love and forgive me, everyone I stabbed in the face”), LeBron scored a touchdown (not a surprise) and proceeded to mimic Stevie Johnson’s weekend antics, the “Plaxico Burress Handgun Shuffle.”

So at this point LeBron thinks everyone will laugh and hug him and forget he made them all cry last year. But in reality, LeBron is making a handgun joke that he is three degrees removed from. LeBron ==> Football in General ==> Stevie Johnson ==> Plaxico Burress. Check the video:

And personally, I think the worst thing you can do in front of a bunch of people who want to kill you, is remind them of how they would do it by gesturing a handgun.
