LeBron offering sage advice
2008-01-11 19:28:00
When LeBron James was a rookie, he preferred to learn by doing. He kept in touch with several friends around the NBA who were veterans, but for the most part, he wanted to experience everything for himself. But not every young star feels that way, including the Seattle SuperSonics' budding franchise player, Kevin Durant, and James is happy to oblige. After getting to know each other last summer when Durant trained with Team USA in Las Vegas, James and Durant have built a relationship and often the Cavaliers' star serves as a mentor. ''I was in the same position Kevin was coming into the league and trying to be the face of a franchise and try to lead the team to victory,'' James said. ''He's having his difficulties in his first year, just like I had my difficulties.'' Durant and James talk or text message each other every few days, discussing everything from the game to their personal lives to injuries. Durant rec...

No, LeBron James blog is not dead!!!
2007-12-11 16:32:00
I just can't write as often as before because of my college duties...So, what to say about LeBron so far this season? Hahaha nothing more than we already know - PERFECTION!!! :)He missed 5 last games because of sprained left index finger and we can all see that he is tired of his team losing without him! So, he'll probably be in lineup tonight against Pacers but it's a game-time decision...It can only get better for Cavs :)

'Saturday Night Live' Kicks Off 33rd Season With LeBron James, Kanye West
2007-09-22 23:12:00
Fresh of its recent Emmy wins, NBC's "Saturday Night Live " returns for its 33rd season on September 29 (11:30 p.m. - 1:00 a.m. ET) for three consecutive shows with a diverse and star-studded line-up. "Saturday Night Live" continues its historic run while breaking new ground, including recently taking home two Emmy Awards, including an Emmy for the SNL Digital Short-turned internet phenomenon -- "D**k in a Box." The show kicks off its new season September 29 with one of the newest generation of NBA superstars -- Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James. Joining James in his second appearance on SNL (and second SNL Season Premiere) is hip-hop icon Kanye West . October 6 brings the star of the two biggest comedy hits of the summer to SNL -- writer-producer-actor Seth Rogen. Joining Rogen in making their SNL debut is the critically praised indie band Spoon. On October 13 , "SNL" will serve a double helping of rock with host Jon Bon Jovi and musical guest Foo Fighters.

James sees better than ever after eye surgery
2007-09-15 15:44:00
LeBron James took another step toward improving his game last week, undergoing Lasik eye surgery in Beverly Hills, Calif. The procedure, performed by Dr. Kerry K. Assil, is designed to improve vision and assures a faster recovery. James' vision has improved to 20/15, according to Assil, and he has already been cleared to resume workouts. Lasik, which typically takes 10 to 15 minutes, involves a surgeon creating a corneal flap. The flap is then peeled back and a laser is used to reshape the cornea. Once the cornea is reshaped, light rays coming into the eye will properly focus on the retina for clearer vision. James recently led the United States team to a gold medal in the FIBA Americas tournament in Las Vegas, which qualified them for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. He is scheduled to host the season premiere of "Saturday Night Live" from New York on Sept. 29. On Oct. 2, James and the Cavaliers open training camp and defense of their Eastern Conference championship.

James Is Just One of the Guys
2007-08-30 15:18:00
Kobe Bryant was the first to track down LeBron James , elevating to chest bump the star after he made a ridiculous, 40-foot bank shot at the end of the first half of the United States' 113-76 victory over Brazil on Sunday.James howled and scowled. Then, one by one, James's teammates rushed to bump chests with him to celebrate the just-inside-of-half-court heave that gave the United States a 19-point lead and kept Brazil at bay. A day later, the United States looked lethargic and uninterested at halftime against Mexico until James anointed himself "the energy man" and scored 16 points, including three three-pointers, in the first seven minutes of the third period to spark another lopsided victory in the FIBA Americas Championship. James hasn't been asked to score much, only to fill the gaps in this Olympic qualifying tournament. No longer playing the role as "King" of the Cavaliers -- the team he led to the last NBA Finals June -- James is relishing being just another member of t...

2007-07-25 23:38:00
Live from New York, it's LeBron!Cavaliers All-Star forward LeBron James , fresh off co-hosting the ESPY Awards earlier this month, will host the season premiere of 'Saturday Night Live' in September, an NBC spokesman confirmed Wednesday.The 22-year-old James will be the latest prominent athlete to host 'SNL.' His boyhood idol, NBA superstar Michael Jordan, hosted the show in 1991. Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning appeared last season.His 'SNL' appearance was first reported by Daily Variety.James got positive reviews for his work co-hosting the ESPYs along with Jimmy Kimmel. The show honored the year's best sports moments and athletes.James appeared in several skits and danced and sang a version of Bobby Brown's 'My Prerogative' with rewritten lyrics about his own fame.Later this week, James is expected to report to mini-camp with the U.S. national team as it begins preparations for next month's FIBA Americas tournament, the regional qualifier for the 2008 Oly...

James' joke criticised
2007-07-21 23:39:00
7:(LeBron James threw the baby out with the bath wa ter when he co-hosted the ESPYs last week. In trying to make fun of his "King James" image, he created a worse one in a matter of seconds.Shouldn't anyone be in hot water after slam-dunking a baby?The criticism has been slight so far because ESPN broadcasts the similarly named ESPYs, and the "worldwide leader" isn't going to criticize itself. Also, the ESPYs audience skews to the young and attention-challenged. No one except comedian Dane Cook acknowledged the ill-advised skit. Cook wondered if James' dancing in a Hammer/Bobby Brown send-up or "when he dunked the baby" was more tasteless.In the skit, James stood at the side of the stage, holding a baby in a blanket in his arms. The baby looked too big to be his infant second son, Bryce Maximus, but who knows? It's hard to tell on TV. Then James jumped and dunked a doll wrapped in the same blanket through a basket. After it smacked off the floor, he said, "Let's see if Angelina...

LeBron welcomes baby boy
2007-06-17 21:00:00
LeBron James will have at least one good memory from the Finals.James' longtime girlfriend, Savannah Brinson, gave birth to the couple's second son just before 1 a.m. Thursday at Cuyahoga Falls General Hospital. Bryce Maximus James weighed in at 8 pounds, 6 ounces and was 21 inches long when he came into the world at 12:51 a.m. Brinson chose the first name and James picked the middle name in honor of Russell Crowe's character in the movie Gladiator, James' favorite movie.It was a long night for both parents: Brinson was in labor for nearly nine hours, and James was unable to sleep, getting no rest until after the Cavs' shootaround at 11 a.m.``It puts everything in perspective,'' James said. ``I think this is definitely special for me, being a part of this, being a part of the NBA, being a part of the NBA Finals. Having my family is an exciting time also -- it's great. Win, lose or draw, this is special to my family. To have another James come into the family, it doesn't get...

Bruce Bowen defense?! :-/
2007-06-08 19:15:00
Bruce Bowen went into Game 1 of the NBA Finals taking sole responsibility for limiting Cleveland Cavaliers' star LeBron James.James didn't get his first basket of the game until 7:15 remained in the third period. He missed 12 of his 16 shots and had only four assists.Bowen, though, took minimal personal satisfaction."I'm happy with the victory," he said. "He didn't have a 48-point game, and I'm happy with that."It was up to Bowen's teammates to give Bowen the credit he deserved."We do a pretty good job containing people," Tim Duncan said. "It helps a little bit to have somebody like Bruce. That's definitely not something you look past. He's guarded every position throughout these playoffs, and he's done a great job with it. So a lot of credit to him."During this playoff run, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has used Bowen on Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony, Deron Williams and now, James. He knows Bowen gives his team concept the best opportunity to succeed."He takes great pride in...

LeBron James magic
2007-06-02 19:49:00
Auburn Hills, Mich. -- LeBron James put on one of the most memorable playoff performances in NBA history on Thursday night.James had dunks, fadeaway jumpers and he scored the winning basket in a thrilling 109-107 double-overtime victory over the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference finals.James finished with 48 points, nine rebounds and seven assists in 51 minutes. He also scored 29 of the Cavs' last 30 points, including 25 straight. Cavs coach Mike Brown is glad he was a witness. "This was the single best game I've ever seen on this level and in this atmosphere hands down," Brown said. "He was absolutely phenomenal."Despite his playoff-best performance, James was more satisfied with the victory."If I did everything I did tonight and we lost, it means nothing," James said. "The win is the most important thing for us, and we need one more win to reach our goal."The Cavs are in the same position they were in last season in the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Pistons. ...

King James is dethroned??!
2007-05-13 19:25:00
The NBA, like most professional leagues, often takes on a ``what have you done lately?'' mantra. For the media that cover it, the answer concerning LeBron James seems to be a resounding: ``Not so much.''In what was considered a surprise, at least in Cleveland, James was left off the All-NBA first team, which was announced Thursday. James not only made the team last year but led in overall votes. This time, though, he wasn't all that close. The San Antonio Spurs' Tim Duncan edged him for the last forward spot by getting 30 more first-team votes. James landed a spot on the second team.The Phoenix Suns' Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire, the Los Angeles Lakers' Kobe Bryant and the Dallas Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki also were on the first team.James' scoring numbers were down this season, but he became the first player since Oscar Robertson to average at least 27 points, six rebounds and six assists for three consecutive seasons. James, as he usually does, downplayed the significan...

2007-04-30 22:46:00
The Cleveland Cavaliers are still LeBron James' team, but at least at the moment he has a strong supporting cast. Guard Larry Hughes scored 27 points in Game 1. Forward Drew Gooden was the key player in Game 2, finishing with 24 points and 14 rebounds. And 7-foot-3 center Zydrunas Ilgauskas is having an excellent series, scoring 24 points on 10-for-13 shooting in Saturday's Game 3. "Last year, especially in the playoffs, if LeBron wasn't getting it done, we weren't getting it done as a team," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said. "It takes some of the pressure and load off of him and our team when other guys are able to step up. The offense is evolving to where not every play is called for LeBron. Sometimes LeBron gets action on the backside." James has been outstanding as a playmaker, drawing extra attention from the defense and finding open teammates. Ilgauskas has stepped out and made open jumpers. The same is true for Hughes and Sasha Pavlovic, whose 3-pointer off James' drive-a...

James Scores 35 As Cavs Beat Nets
2007-04-12 23:41:00
LeBron James looked playoff ready. The New Jersey Nets aren't quite there yet. James scored 35 points in 36 minutes and the Cleveland Cavaliers secured home-court advantage for the first round of the NBA playoffs with a 94-76 win Thursday night over the Nets, who blew a chance to inch closer to a postseason berth.Larry Hughes added 19 points for Cleveland (47-32), which tied idle Chicago (47-32) for the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. The Cavs have three games left, and they'll probably have to win them all and hope the Bulls _ who own the tiebreaker between the clubs _ stumble to avoid a possible first-round matchup against the Miami Heat.With a few trademark dunks, and more energy than he's shown in recent weeks, James took over in the third quarter, scoring 15 points when the Cavaliers shot 82 percent (14-of-17) from the field to blow the game open.Vince Carter scored 26 points to lead the Nets (37-41), who came in as the East's No. 7 seed.A victory would have reduced N...

LeBron and Marbury in Shoe War
2007-03-30 19:27:00
Stephon Marbury gave his sneaker rebuttal to LeBron James and said the Cavaliers superstar didn't do his "homework."James, who has a $90 million endorsement contract with Nike, took a shot at the quality of Marbury's sneaker/apparel line before Wednesday's Knicks game. The discounted Starbury shoes go for $14.98 and his T-shirts and sweatshirts for $9.99. By comparison, James' Zoom LeBron IV retails for $150 and a James' T-shirt for $55."I laughed," Marbury told The Post when he saw the remarks. "I'd rather own than be owned. When he retires, he's not going to own anything."I don't think he did his homework," Marbury added. "We're putting out the same stuff he's putting out, just at an affordable price. But I understand that he's got to say that because it's part of the business."James said Wednesday he would never have a discount line."Me being with Nike, we hold our standards high. And we do a great job of putting out great merchandise, great shoes. It does come with a...

LeBron back after sitting for a game
2007-03-15 17:01:00
After missing Tuesday night's home game against Sacramento with back spasms, James flew here with the team and felt much better when he woke up. He got some rest, put some heat on his back and then after a long pre-game massage, declared himself ready to go against the Grizzlies."If I didn't feel like I was ready to play, I'd do what I did last night," James said about an hour before the game. "I'm definitely ready to play. I won't hold back. My back is a little tight, but it's not going to stop me from doing what I can do on the court."A back is off and on. Sometimes it flares up. An ankle's a little bit different. If you're out and try to come back after an ankle injury, sometimes you are a little hesitant. I'll definitely try to be myself out there tonight and go out and get a win."After Tuesday, the Cavs are 9-2 without James, 3-0 this season."I told them if they want me to sit out the rest of the regular season, I would," James said with a laugh.

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade made like magicians that afternoon, causing eight players to disap pear. James and Wade entered a zone and locked the door behind them, seamlessly turning a team contest into a one-on-one showdown straight off the playground.Basketball fans, whether at The Q, listening to the radio or watching on television, likely have clear mental images from April 1, 2006 - the most recent matchup in Cleveland between James' Cavaliers and Wade's Miami Heat. The Cavaliers rallied to win, 106-99.Either player will be hard-pressed to top what he did that afternoon when the teams face each other tonight at The Q. James finished with 47 points, 12 rebounds, nine assists and two steals in 46 minutes. He originally was credited with a triple double, but the NBA office later erased an assist upon film review. Wade countered with 44 points, nine assists, eight rebounds and two steals in 43 minutes.Given the quality of the teams involved, the competitiveness of the game and t...

LeBron takes responsibility for loss

A sprained right big toe couldn't keep LeBron James out of the Cleveland Cavaliers' starting lineup Thursday night vs. the Heat.But whether it was the lingering effects of the injured toe or the Heat's defense, James wasn't himself in the Cavaliers' 92-89 loss at American Airlines Arena.The NBA's seventh-leading scorer with a 27.2-point average, James was held to 17 points on 6-of-18 shooting from the floor.James, who had missed two of the Cavaliers' previous three games, had a particularly nightmarish stretch over the game's final 1:02. He missed 3 of 4 free throws, was charged with a flagrant foul and missed a potential game-tying, three-point attempt at the buzzer."I take full responsibility for this loss," James said. "I had a lot of chances to put us up two or tie the game and I didn't make plays for our team to win. As a leader, I didn't come through. I owe my team one."James' output was a far cry from his sizzling performance the last time he faced the Heat and Wad...

CLEVELAND - LeBron James got two pieces of good news on Thursday, one physical and one ceremonial.The NBA officially announced James had become the first member of the Cavaliers to lead the league in All-Star voting, garnering more than 2.5 million votes (second most all-time), to edge injured favorite Yao Ming by about 1 million votes. James will make his third consecutive All-Star start and defend his game Most Valuable Player trophy on Feb. 18 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.He will be joined in the Eastern Conference starting lineup by Shaquille O'Neal, Dwyane Wade, Gilbert Arenas and Chris Bosh. The West starters will be Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady, Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan and Yao, although he won't be able to play.It was a special triumph for James, whose game always has had All-Star billing, but unseating Yao and his huge Asian following shows his popularity has reached international levels."Just getting the opportunity to be the leading vote-getter is kind of...

Carmelo Anthony can hear about his suspension when he walks down the street, turns on the television and perhaps calls to order a pizza. LeBron James figures that's enough. James said he has talked about five times with the Nuggets forward since his 15-game penalty was handed down Dec. 18 for his role in a Dec. 16 brawl. Never once has the topic been about the suspension. "Everybody else is talking about the suspension," James said after practice Monday in preparation for the Cavaliers' game tonight in Seattle. "It doesn't make sense for me to harp on it and ask him about it. . . . It doesn't make sense. No reason to talk about that. So it's just basic conversation." There won't be any conversation between the two Friday night at the Pepsi Center. Though it was supposed to be the seventh meeting between the two since the 2003-04 season, Anthony will be serving the next-to-last game of the suspension. "I'm happy," James said. "I'm excited. I don't have to worry about 32 poin...

Eric Snow finished with 18 points for Cleveland, which leads the Eastern Conference with a 23-13 record.The Clippers, coming off a six-game road trip, got 22 points from reserve forward Corey Maggette. Chris Kaman had 20 points and nine rebounds, and Elton Brand added 16 points and 10 boards.James was 10-for-23 from the field, two nights after attempting a season-high 28 shots in a 109-90 loss at Phoenix. The two-time All-Star, playing to the celebrity-sprinkled sellout crowd of 20,027 throughout the game, brought many of them to their feet with an exaggerated slam dunk that trimmed the Clippers' lead to 44-42 with 2:55 left in the half.Reserve fo...

Remember that digitally enhanced commercial a few years ago with LeBron James hitting practically full-court shots?Wednesday night in Boston, he did it for real. His 83-foot shot at the end of the third quarter was the longest of his career and the third longest in NBA history, according to noted NBA statistical wizard Harvey Pollack.Although the NBA doesn't keep official records on such things, Pollack, the 76ers director of statistical information who publishes an annual NBA yearbook, said there were only two longer shots in NBA history. Charlotte's Baron Davis hit an 89-foot shot on Feb. 17, 2001 at Milwaukee, and Chicago's Norm Van Lier hit an 84-footer on Jan. 19, 1977 at San Antonio.James said Wednesday that he and Drew Gooden often try trick shots like that after practice."Today was one of those days that I got one off and it went in," James said.The funny thing was, Boston coach Doc Rivers had yelled at his players at the end of the first quarter for not playing defense ...

Of course, these are the most common places for them, but what can I say... I like simple things. As I like the simplicity that LeBron plays with (other players!!).What do you think about this tattoo? Personally, I don't like it... Share your thoughts with me...There is a rumour that the tattoo on his back was there when he was born :) CoolOn His right bicep, LeBron has a rather elaborate design. The words "KING" and "JAMES" frame what appears to be the head of a lion or maybe a very hairy person. On the head sits a crown and over the mouth it says "Gloria" in honor of his mother

LeBron weighs in on brawl

Let me ask you something... If You were in the fight, would you do what Melo did? Would LeBron do that?!

The players were involved in a brawl that spilled over into the Garden crowd.In addition, the league fined each team $500,000."The suspensions have to be given out. These are grown men,'' Cavaliers forward LeBron James said. "They're going to have to take their consequences.
