LeBron: Week after Finals was the “worst week I ever had.”
In an interview with HoopsHype, LeBron discussed the 2010-11 Miami Heat, working with Hakeem Olajuwon on his post game, the fans in Cleveland and more.
Here’s what he had to say about the 2012 Olympics:
What about the Olympics next year? You don’t want to commit yet?
LJ: I’m committed. I can’t wait for it – to have an opportunity to go to London and defend our gold medal from Beijing. It’s going to be great. I’ve always loved the Olympics just to be around the athletes from all over the world. Not only in my country but to see all of the athletes, it’s so fun… I have a great deal respect for all other athletes that are competing as well.
Later, he was asked about the MVP award.
Did you think you have a real shot at winning the MVP last season?
LJ: No.
Why?
LJ: Just the thing I did. The change from Cleveland to Miami wasn’t going to allow me to win the MVP.
No matter what.
LJ: No matter. It didn’t matter.
What about next season?
LJ: I got a chance. But they made me take a year off.
It’s interesting that he blames The Decision for not winning the MVP award.

He tries to say the right things, and then he puts his foot in his mouth with the MVP line.
I guess it’s good news for him that he is FINALLY working on a post-up game. I guess the humiliation in the finals had some effect on him.
Here in Ohio, we’ve heard that LeBum is looking into playing professional hockey. After his usual lying down in the fourth period, he’s figured out that he may be more successful in a sport where he’s only required to play for three periods.
In this excerpt, Lebron didn’t blame the “The Decision” for him not winning the MVP. He said rather, “The change from Cleveland to Miami wasn’t going to allow me to win the MVP”. The follow up question, or STATEMENT for that matter, “No matter what” and Lebron said, “No matter what, it didn’t matter”. Where in that do you get “The Decision”?. Ya’ll some twisted folks bro.
He’s the one that named his decision “The Decision.” You’re right that he didn’t blame the hour-long special by name, but isn’t that the thing that everyone (outside of Cleveland) has a problem with?
