it strikes me as just wrong how often players entertain thoughts of playing for other teams and decide to share that with the media. the media won't shut up about it but i just find it hard to believe larry and magic would speak so much about possibilities playing elsewhere.
  Not just Lebron but Wade in my opinion is being a bit of a jerk. I just think he's disrepecting the heat franchise. Sure doesn't show on the court. there certainly is no doubt the guy is great but this is a shamein my opinion. i'M not calling him a bad guy but i just think it's kind of wrong to STILL address those questions.

Well, it does not shock me since the reporters are always asking questions about their future, and imply that they could play with another team.

I mean, the players have to answer about these questions. And their answers are always the same : I will do what's best for me, I want to win, etc. What do you expect them to say? They can't state that they will stay with their team forever because they know there is a big chance they won't. I think Wade responded well to these questions, by also putting pressure on the front office to give him some support which would convince him to re sign with the Heat.

LeBron... not so much, with his "shocking" statements and his implyings about the possibility of joining the Knicks, and stuff like that.
