Lebron doesn't exactly endorse Hayward as an All-Star

Not sure how I interpret this postgame interview from Lebron James:

Listen to the 0:50 mark

I don't see what controversy it would cause if he said something like, "yeah I think he should be an all-star, but it's not up to me so I'll let other people make that decision"...unless he doesn't think he's an all-star. I think he's still salty about Hayward dropping that game winner against him a couple years ago....

You're making something out of nothing. Sports reporters are ****ing annoying with their loaded questions, and then overreactions regardless of what the answer is. If Lebron says no, then there's the dumb story to follow about how Lebron is a jerk and doesn't respect Hayward/The Jazz. If he says yes and then Hayward doesn't make it, then there's the big story of how Hayward got snubbed and that even Lebron thought he should make it.

Hell, even with him trying to avoid the question altogether, here you are trying to make something out of it. Sports reporters have a job to do, but my hell they're annoying. I don't blame Lebron a bit just because somebody couldn't make him say Hayward should be an all-star.

As for him being salty over a game he lost years ago, he's lost lots of games in his career, and I doubt that stands out. Kind of meaningless in the grand scheme of things for somebody who has won the whole banana several times.
 
Not sure why fans get all uptight about what players say after we beat them. This kind of happened with the warriors too, only I don't think we even won that game, just played them tough. Some reporter got all bent out of shape because they were laughing after some dumb question about Utah being on their level or something. It's as if some fans are so insecure that they need reassurance.

Respect will come when Utah proves themselves in the playoffs. Until then, nobody should act like one game means anything more than we outplayed somebody on that particular night.

I love lebron. He always does stuff like that. Great player and great dude. I never hear about him getting in trouble with the law or girlfriends/wives or any other off court issues.

He was hated because of The Decision. The Decision raised millions of dollars for the boys and girls club

When was the last time he fell down?

he tripped over his own feet twice in the raptors game. didn't pay much attention during the griz game with other stuff going in the background. You really like to argue about nothing. i'd call you a contrarian but you'd disagree. lol. just start paying attention to hayward's footing, especially on contested drives. he trips on "nothing" a lot.

Sounds like he does it all the time.
 
Sort of think had this question been asked about the greek freak or Paul George (before he made the Allstar team) he would have said something like, "Yeah, probably. He's a very talented player."
