James never rehearses the speech, but already knows what the gist will be.

Come up with something on your own will ya?!

Russell is to good of heart. He's open source.

Lebron James is talented, but he's also the biggest vagina in the NBA. Really wish Bruce Bowen still played for the Spurs so he could rock a bowtie while drop kicking James in the face. Knowing how well James takes injuries, they'd probably have to take a defibrillator out to the court to get his heart back in the game.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, even from swooning pansies.

Some of you are insanely ridiculous

Russell Wilson is not the first person to say "Why not us" and it's not a trademark.

Two-time defending NBA champs on the collusion-est of teams and fourth straight year in the finals asking "Why not us?" Give me a friggin' break. The NBA has zero parity and is complete garbage; it's no wonder that MLB, college football and redneck auto racing are all more popular.

Maybe if Lewhine would hustle his ass back on defense instead of throwing his arms up in the air looking for a foul every time he loses the ball...

I don't get why everyone is down on LeBron James except for the fact that he's wasting his immense physical talent in an irrelevant league.

Why then would Seattle want to get involved with an "irrelevant league"?

Apparently, Seattle doesn't too badly, since they aren't building an arena and hoping that said irrelevant league takes notice.

On topic, I like LeBron James. He'd make a fine Joker TE, I'd bet.

It's not right but man I sure do dislike that smug pompous arse.

What exactly has he done to be seen like Richard Sherman is outside of 12 land?

I have heard "why not us" since little league baseball. Heard it in HS football too.

The first time I heard it in the NFL was not from RW, in fact I think even the previous Dolphins coach said it recently.

If it applies, then use it. Actually, I don't think Russ even needed it because watching this team develop in 2012, it was easy to see that the Hawks had a very likely shot at a Super Bowl on 2013.

This is America. People live to hate on greatness here.

The way he left Cleveland is what made me appreciate him losing in Miami (although the way Boozer left Cleveland was way worse). However, I recognize how great of a player he is, and he's not any bigger of a douche than Jordan or other top guys that have played. I'm also annoyed by the overexposure of "Super Teams" like the Heat (and the Celtics before they blew it up and LA). But I'd rather see the non-superstar team win it. I'd even rather see the fairly low-key Thunder win it; that's pretty severe coming from a Sonics fan.

I always respected the way the Spurs have been run since getting drafting Duncan. The Pistons were doing the same thing for a while there too.

The idea that James is somehow stealing Wilson's material is laughable. These sports aren't original when we're talking about what's coming out of players and coaches mouths. Wilson has personality, but let's not act like most of what he says isn't just football cliche'.

Only thing is the salary he'd demand would be no joke. The man did play football in HS but probably realized it didn't offer him the limelight or the career longevity.

Everyone likes an underdog story. But basketballs lack of parity due to a few super athletes being able to carry teams makes over exposure commonplace.

I love Lebron. I have no idea where he comes off as pompous. The guy is currently the best in the league, by a wide margin, and one of the best all time (not the best yet, time will tell). Guy knows hes one of the best, and still keeps an even keel. I sense the hate is 80% jealousy for most fans. As an earlier posted example, theres not much difference in relation to Richard Shermans situation.
