LeBron James' much-awaited ‘Second Decision’ has finally been revealed. The Los Angeles Lakers’ superstar posted a 10-second video dubbed "The Second Decision" with the caption "The decision of all decisions. Oct. 7, 12 p.m. EST. (crown emoji) (saluting emoji) #TheSecondDecision.” Following this, there were rumours about his potential retirement, which spread like wildfire.
Fans react to LeBron James ‘Second Decision’ announcement
The announcement is not about his retirement, which is a relief to the fans; however, the NBA star’s admirers are angry and disappointed with him for the heart attack he gave them with the post. The video took the fans back to James' first statement regarding his move from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat as a free agent.
The recent video showed him sitting down across from another man on a basketball court, which intensified the retirement rumours. Meanwhile, it turned out to be a promotion for a drinks brand. Here’s how fans have reacted to all this announcement saga on the internet. A user wrote:
“I literally quit my job bc I was so mentally stressed about you retiring and it turns out it was all for a fucking Hennessy ad? I'm so angry at you LeBron, but I can't stop loving you anyway. I'm about to buy 10 bottles.”
Another wrote:
“Don’t ever do that sh*t again buddy”
One commented:
“Lebron played too much for no reason”
Another stated:
“You cost me money but it’s okay cuz u didn’t retire”
Another said:
“Fans who thought Lebron was retiring”
One more:
“People went out and paid $445, assuming it was LeBron’s last game against the Jazz, which were going for $85 before “The Second Decision” announcement.”
Meanwhile, the 40-year-old is currently recovering from injury and has not played in the ongoing NBA pre-season games so far. The Lakers don't want to take any chances as the regular season stays on priority.
