As the Cleveland Cavaliers World Turns

Turner Network Television commentator Charles Barkley who is not afraid to speak his mind has endured the anger of Cleveland Cavaliers basketball superstar LeBron "King" James since the Cavaliers despite being in first place in Eastern Conference are facing tough times with their current roster.
James should learn that not everyone is going to like him due to his success playing 14 years in the National Basketball Association. (NBA).
Barkley called James "a whiner" for James wanting his bosses at the Cavaliers basketball team to improve his supporting cast this basketball season.
James called Barkley "a hater" for trying to tarnish his legacy.
Gee whiz LeBron learn from myself. Anytime I get hate mail on social media for saying the words "Give him a Brownie point for his good deeds for charity" from your fans I tell them politely "Thank you for doing your best Florinda Meza imitation on me kiddo."
LeBron just learn from PBS Kids hero Wordgirl. In the cartoon movie "The Rise Of Miss Power" she learned from her pet monkey Captain Huggyface how to handle insults. Just brush them off and say the opposite of what the bully says.
They stop dead in their tracks and run away with shame on their images.
Otherwise I am enjoying this basketball soap opera.

Charles has been there and done that. I guess LeBron wants his ego massaged by the press 24 hours a day.

@Plethos But I guess LeBron just like the media giving him his crying towel when he calls out Barkley "a hater." I remember a story of the late Ted Williams the Boston Red Sox player who once said "He wanted to be a fireman if he was not a baseball player" to a reporter and when the word got out the rivals of the Red Sox would taunt Ted who they knew he was sensitive to insults to get under his skin and it worked.

Well, I am not a Lebron fan, but I admit he's a great player for the CAVS.

He is the face of the NBA and a great player who should learn not to let people who dislike him get under his skins with comments like "Whiner" or "Posse". It is like Superman telling his enemies that Kryptonite can harm him.

@neilmagals05 When someone calls me The Joker I laugh at them or criticize me for liking Wordgirl because she is a kids cartoon I tell them "Whatever gets your ship through the Panama Canal is fine with me."

Personally I am not a LeBron James fan, and never will be, but then again Basketball today is nothing compared to what it once was. But Charles Barkley must have been provoked somehow I would think to show some disrespect like this unless her was hoping to someone teach a lesson? But in public is Never Good.

Well, the Cavs could use some help as their bench is thin.

LeBron is crying out for help and some people call him a "whiner." LeBron should take the advice of my late dad "Water off of a duck."

I love Charles Barkley. He's certainly not afraid to speak his mind.

I admire Charles for having the courage to speak his mind and back up his words with a smile.
