Lebron wants $1 million to be in dunk comp

From Willoughby News-Heald via Hoopshype:

James denied a report in Sunday's New York Daily News that he asked for $1 million to compete in the slam dunk contest.
"I haven't asked for that," he said. "I have enough millions right now. If I feel comfortable about doing it, I'll do it."
James said the deciding factor will be his ankle.
"The same thing happened last year," he said. "I hurt my ankle before All-Star weekend. It was a no-brainer that I wasn't going to do it. It's all up to how I'm feeling."

Amare is the only one I've heard of that's accepted the invite

Josh Smith also accepted his invite :wink:

I know this is not really official because its from a NY paper, but the thing that worries me is that BSPN isnt reporting anything that this is a false claim. If it really was the case that he didnt ask for the money, then there would be like 5 articles about it on ESPN to protect LeBron. I havent heard anything from them :?

But if he claims that he didnt request any amount of money...then I believe him.

Hey, that's too aggresive for me. Did I offend you in order to get this? Well, I don't think a good community like the NLSC is made of such posts. So for the future, please try to avoid such manners. People don't want to be called like that just for writing a post that doesn't match with your opinion. That's just naughty.

Accurate?


Damn right. If you want, I can remove it. And I really couldn't edit it. If you don't believe me, it's your business.

I don't think he would have said that.

Try to stay on topic...

What's even more pathetic is that you have your mum & dad read your posts on the internet.

Anyhow's, both claims are coming from a NY source if I'm not mistaken, which do we believe now? :|

how was lebron unable to participate in the dunk contest last year (because of his ankle) but then pull off sick dunks in the rookie game instead (eg. through the legs). This doesn't make sense to me. I think its just an excuse cause he doesnt want to enter it.

If he uses the same excuse this year that his ankle is sore or something but then puts on a big rookie and all star game performance im gonna be pissed.

He won't win anyway, there are much more dunkers that would do it better than him.

By the way: Did he really pull off a between the legs in the Rokkie 2004? Ricky also did it in game.

well, i was watching the game yesterday between the cavs and raptors and the commentators said that yes he denied it and he has enough millions.

and, guys dont believe all the shit you read. its like reading tabloids and talking shit about anything you read in there.

also, if the guy doesnt want to join the slam dunk contest, then he has every right not to do so. hes not your bitch to do as you please.

yes, i love lebron's game. but even if i didnt, this is just ridiculous. 1 article and every1s putting him down. bandwagoners. muahahhahahahhahahha :evil: :twisted:


.... or maybe u guys didnt like him in the first place. HAHAHHA

oh well

Mom And Dad for all you know it could be my kids. But you didnt stop to think about what you were saying yet again. Its ok ill forgive you.

I think Lebron Deserves no money for doing a couple of dunks. Dunk Competetion is an honor to participate in.

It's impossible you'd have kids, you're too stupid, A) you'd probably stick your partner in the wrong hole &/or B) you'd be with someone of the same gender or C) your hand can't make kids.
