Shit is lame. I didn't know dude had the tapes confiscated (and obviously destroyed).
-
lol taht dude really does hate lebron.
-
i wonder if nike will try n flip this in some way now, like release the tape in some way promoting james in someway.
-
"confiscated by a Nike representative", NOT LEBRON JAMES lol.
Skip Bayless is my hero, but i don't see why it's pinned on him, Nike doesn't want it.
i mean, i'm sure LeBron didn't want a video of him getting dunked on floating around, but he didn't give the order to get rid of it.
anyway, this will be forgotten by the end of the week lol.
-
haha i heard bout this but didnt know what the fuck they was talkin bout
watch everyone and their mom turn this into james isnt the best cuz he got dunked on....by a college kid

nah word is that lebron called up the nike reps to come n take em. lol
-
lol Im sure this is more on Nike then Lebron. Lebron is a ball player, they get dunked on all the time. Its part of the game and every single player knows it. Nike is a business, so they look at things different.

its obvious that Nike fucked up by drawing more attention to this shit then there would have been otherwise. I can understand the "no filming" shit, i guess. But really, this would not have been that big of a deal had Nike not taken the tapes lol

well maybe not to the rest of the world.
but this board would be flippin' out acting like LeBron is one of the worst players & it would actually affect his status, if some Laker fans saw that LMAO.
the funniest part is that it's true, people would start saying Wade >>> LeBron, because LeBron got dunked on. :laugh:
but yeah, Nike is causing all the attention that this is getting.

if you don't mind your karma dropping 32 points lol.
that's the best thing about superstars though, they shit on people day in & day out & nobody says shit.
LeBron has dunked on so many, shot over Kobe, blocked hundreds; but that happens to him & it's a big deal.
i wouldn't have lost any respect for him if i saw the video.
when A.I. crossed the shit out of Jordan, it was big for when it happened, for a few days lol.
when you discuss Jordan's career today, maybe one of every fifteen people would bring up that A.I. crossed him.

lol u guys are trippin, tryin to always turn shit into a kobe thing. I mean really if it was any other player cham u would be laughin but ur love for lebron has tainted ur views. If u dont think a player callin up the nike reps to come take the tapes away becus he got dunked on isnt some lame shit ur trippin, lebron is ur jesus i get it but be real with urselfs.

no, you guys just have such a deep hate for LeBron that me being a fan of him looks like i am his biggest fan; that's the saddest part, i think.
you don't know me, but no one on here really does; but if you did, you'd know that i am not all that big of a LeBron fan.
i was just explaining my view, i don't think it's that big of a deal; it wouldn't have been to most of the world if it was leaked, like i explained with my AI crossing Jordan thing.
it's only as big as it is because nobody is allowed to see it, Laker fans on this board are the only ones making a big deal, calling him a bitch because of it because you just have a deep, passionate hate for LeBron, it's cool though; i was just letting you guys know you did. ;)
but for the record, i didn't say anything to turn it into "a Kobe thing". ;)

Cham brough up the Laker fans on here and how they have completely different standards for Kobe and for anybody else in the league. So I responded. Big deal.

Sorry but the guy who gets dunked on by college kids isn't taking anything away from the Finals MVP.
-
Whats funny is that had this video actually leaked, ESPN probably would've shown footage, people would laugh, and then it would be forgotten.
But the fact that LeBron asked Nike to confiscate the video just made the situation a shit load worse than it had to be. Now it won't be forgotten, he just added fuel to the fire with the spectators who were already having a field day with the loser act in Orlando.
-
I don't get what's so embarassing about being dunked on. To penetrate and to slam (travelling) is a lot easier than just doing a vertical jump anyway. There are other things that are frustrating, imho. Like Ron Brewer getting schooled by Kobe.. that's embarassing. Or Lee getting abused by Kobe. It's in situations like those that you get yourself embarassed bad. Cause you just can't do anything but watch another man abuse you the whole game.
-
^or like LeBron jaying Kobe.
i get what you're saying.
-
did LeBron ASK them to confiscate it? I might be behind, but I thought NIKE officials confiscated it on their own.

that's what was reported, but apparently the new report (from Lakers fans on this board) is that LeBron called Nike, "begging" them to take the videos. :laugh:

You have become a fuckin idiot cham, go read all the reports n watch the videos before you come trying to act all smart n shit. Basically everyone has claimed that James had something to do with them getting confiscated but you seem to just want to try n clown on ppl instead of look at the facts stated.

"basically everyone"? whose that?
i want inconclusive evidence that he really called them, before you just agree with that some media rumors (from LA) want you to believe.
the media is still on James from what happened in the playoffs, the fact they might be able to turn this into "James called Nike" is just what they want you to think.
c'mon now.

Ryan Miller, a freelance photographer who was working at the camp that day, told CBSSports.com:
"LeBron called [Nike Basketball Senior Director Lynn Merritt] over and told him something," Miller said. "That's how I knew his name was Lynn. LeBron said, 'Hey, Lynn. Come here.'"
A few minutes later, Miller's tape was confiscated.
espn.com
On Monday night, a pair of videographers recorded Xavier's Jordan Crawford dunking on James during a pickup game. After James allegedly huddled with Nike executive Lynn Merritt, the tapes were confiscated.

Nike takes videographers' tapes at LeBron camp
Posted Jul 8 2009 8:09PM
AKRON, Ohio (AP) -- What happens at LeBron's camp stays at LeBron's camp.
A minor controversy erupted at the LeBron James Skills Academy on Monday night when two videographers recorded a pickup game in which Xavier's Jordan Crawford dunked on James.
Gary Parrish reported on CBSSports.com that a Nike representative confiscated tapes of the dunk after conferring with James.
A representative with Nike, which runs the camp at the University of Akron in James' hometown, made no mention of Crawford's dunk. He said the tapes were confiscated because videotaping of after-hours pickup games at the camp is not allowed.
"Nike has been operating basketball camps for the benefit of young athletes for decades and has long-standing policies as to what events are open and closed to media coverage. Unfortunately, for the first time in four years, two journalists did not respect our no videotaping policy at an after-hours pickup game following the LeBron James Skills Academy," said Nike spokesman Derek Kent on Wednesday.
A spokesman for James said he had no comment.

LeBron spoke today about this situation & said it was company policy (Nike) to take the videos & that he had no say on if they would be confiscated or not.
he said Nike took them, he didn't have anything to do with it.
-

thats what they should have done in the FIRST place. The dunk itself wasnt a very big deal. Them confiscating the tapes made it a huge story. And like they said on ESPN radio, once everybody saw the tape...you hardly heard about it anymore a week later. Nike confiscating the tapes, since recording wasnt allowed, is aiight....but they should have turned it into a commercial and could have promoted LeBron and Nike with them rather then making themselves look bad.

Rapists dont rape women because they have no other option of getting pussy dummy lol. They rape because they are rapists. Its a power thing. With that being said, Im not convinced Kobe raped that chick. Is it possible? Of course it is. Just the same, im not convinced LeBron pulled those tapes himself. LeBron is a basketball player, Nike is a business. Nike would have far more interest in those tapes being pulled then LeBron. When you play ball, as LeBron does, getting dunked on is part of the game and guaranteed he knows it. Im sure HE wasnt really that embarassed by being halfway dunked on. Likewise, Im sure you (well, maybe not you)....Im sure anyone could understand why Nike would say that no one was allowed to videotape their guy without being authorized. Bottom line, the story is not that big of a deal. All of the hype was over seeing the tape...and it turned out to be less then amazing. The story is mostly kept alive by people with little else to talk about.

LeBron had Nike pull the tapes....there were witnesses who saw it and that's why the whole sports nation was going on about it for weeks, son......and most rapists do rape cuz they have no other option... if there was pussy being thrown at all the rapists of this nation on a daily basis then I guarantee there wouldn't be many issues about rape in this US... of course, there are some extremely mentally disturbed people who do it for power, but not succesful people who are already on top of the world, married with children, and would be putting their life in extreme jeopardy by doing so....if you add all the facts up, you have to be an idiot to say "of course it's a possibility" that a guy of Kobe's stature would rape a halfway decent white girl who was proven to be a money hungry slut. LOL...seriously
