It's pretty refreshing to see BronBron's reaction actually. I think it shows he a decent guy who respects his fans, and respects the game. The 'Calvin Klein' law? Is that the one about not selling third rate branded crap to wannabe fashionistas? Everyone wants publicity when they are trying to get established, then when they have what they want they deride it as an invasion of privacy. You can't be famous and anonymous, so pick one famebots.

The reason the basketball players are so big is steroids.

LeBron was gracious in accepting the adoration of a fan. The fan was foolhardy in his attempt to express it in that manner. The people who are inexcusably at fault is the MSG security. Really? If I want to, I can walk as a single person onto the floor of the court in mid-game and get personal access to one of the opposition's players? I hope the NBA sanctions the Dolans and MSG is boycotted by visiting teams until they demonstrably beef up their security. Sure, whatisface may have wanted to express his admiration for LeBron, but he just as likely may have wanted to shiv the young man or break his kneecap.

Wow. I love LeBron's attitude about it all. He might do well to be more cautious in the future, but he obviously didn't feel threatened by it, so no big deal. Good on him. And good for the guy for getting to meet his idol. All's well that ends well.

God forbid a fawning peasant gets near the king. It's one thing to be a stalker and another to be an adoring fan. This guy wanted to meet his idol. That's all. It's not like he wanted to be so much like him that he was willing to kill him and wear his skin. If it's against the law to approach someone because of their status, I want that status so that no one ever approaches me again.
