speaking to the media after wednesday morning's shootaround, cleveland cavaliers forward lebron james made a coin of responding to recent criticism stemming from the organization's decision to fire coach david blatt despite the team's first-place record in the eastern conference.

"i think it does suck that people want to throw my name in the dirt," james said.

some have labeled james a "coach killer" for his perceived involvement in blatt's ouster, portraying james as a puppet master pulling the strings in order to elevate his preferred coach, tyronn lue, to the top spot.

"it sucks," james said. "but what can i do about it? i've never, in my time since i picked up a basketball, ever undermined a coach, ever disrespected a coach. you ask any of my little league coaches, my high school coaches, coaches i've played for in tournaments, camps, my nba coaches. i've always respected what they wanted to do. and i'm not the owner of a team, i'm not the gm of a team. i'm the player of a team.

"people get it so misconstrued because i'm a smart basketball player and i've voiced my opinion about certain things, which i did when i was here my first stint with paul silas and mike brown. which i did in miami with coach spo [erik spoelstra]. which i did with blatt and i'll do with t-lue. and at the end of the day, they'll still have their final call."
