He writes that LeBron shows up at the Gund wearing suits..... errrr..... not always. I saw the one night a few weeks ago he was dressed like a rapper on his way to a play some PS2 with his budds.... baggy oversized clothes, shirt down to his knees (that's gotta be one big ole shirt!), big gold chain with some sort of huge medallion on it.... I had to look twice, and I shook my head.... I'm fine with LeBron wearing whatever look he wants in his free time, but showing up for work like that I thought was borderline inappropriate. Suits are fine, but just a nice outfit is all that is required. By the way, Tractor has some nice suits... you can tell he cares about how he looks and how it fits. Good for him... in my mind, it's what is required if you want to be seen as a professional.

Of course the baggy clothes he was wearing were probably worth more than any suit I've ever owned, and possibly worth more than my car when you factor in the bling...possibly even my hosue.

Well remember it's all about perception in terms of dealing with the populous. Most entertainers or people who work in Entertainment don't wear suits. Why? Because they get paid so much, they don't have to and they just want to be comfortable.
If the guy doesn't want to wear them, he shouldn't have to.

Ironically despite being only 21 and dressing like that (lebron) all the time, I actually agree with you Mongolmike.
As Lebron get's older though, i'm sure this won't even be an issue.
