NBA Writer Tells WFAN: LeBron James Acting Like A 'Petulant Child'
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- LeBron James has become "the NBA's biggest troll," an NBA beat writer said Thursday.
Ira Winderman, who covers the Miami Heat for the Sun Sentinel, was a guest on Mike Francesa's WFAN show when he was asked about the most famous former Heat player of all.

"It's almost as if everyone, because they've turned to the Warriors and turned to Steph Curry, that LeBron is almost like the petulant child sitting there going, 'Look at me! What about me?', while also wondering about his team and whether his team can compete against the Spurs, compete against the Warriors," Winderman said.
Winderman's comments come after a controversial week for King James, in which he apparently unfollowed the Cavailers' social media accounts and suggested he would take a pay cut to team up with Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade and Chris Paul.
Winderman and Francesa also discussed the Heat, Warriors and how those outside of New York view the Knicks.
