NBA Talk: David Stern Wants LeBron James

Josh Dhani by Senior Writer Written on June 02, 2009
CLEVELAND - MAY 5:  David Stern presents LeBron James #23 of the Cleveland Cavaliers the 2008-2009 MVP Trophy prior to the start of Game One of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Atlanta Hawks during the 2009 NBA Playoffs at Quicken Loans Arena on May 5, 2009 in Cleveland, Ohio. The Cavaliers won 99-72.

It all started in Game Six of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Cavaliers looked to tie the series at three a-piece. After that, LeBron James didn't even shake hands with any of the players with the Orlando Magic—including his pal, Dwight Howard ... He just left. But lucky for him, he wasn't fined.

But people were ticked off at the King. In Serie's World, a blog part of the hit site called Holla Hommie, he said very explicit content about LeBron James in his latest blog post. And Serie, he is never explicit so this was pretty big.

And now here we are. It's David Stern's turn to learn—okay scratch that—stupid rhyme there. But it was David Stern's turn on the LeBron James case.

On the ESPN story, David Stern said on The Herd with Colin Cowherd that he is not pleased with the MVP's actions in Game Six of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Here's the talk between David and Colin on the show (quotes granted access by the ESPN story):

"I'm in the process of making a phone call or two now to talk to LeBron ... so I don't want to speak to that at this moment," Stern said.
"So you're not happy?" Cowherd asked.

"I think that's fair to say," Stern replied.

I think it is.

So LeBron, chill out and relax. Don't go weeping with yourself. You'll start getting made fun of now. Holla Hommie already is. The hit Web site is now calling LeBron James this: LeGone James for the rest of the year, according to the poll several people answered.

So LeBron, next year, when you guys lose in the Finals, be nice and congratulate the team that beat you. You guys did bad and you know it. Don't start acting like a hack.

You have my deepest condolences.
