On July 8th 2010, ESPN ran a one of a kind program on its channel called “The Decision” where Lebron James with an audience of millions over a 75 minute segment watched to see where Lebron James would sign in the offseason. At this date and time, the Player Empowerment Movement would start as Lebron James decided to pave his own future and path as he, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh would all team-up and go after championships together on their own accord. People always claim Lebron James started the Player Empowerment movement and ended up ruining the NBA as other stars over the year would control their own future or control their organizations to the point of ruin. Well what if I told you, that what Lebron did was possibly justified, and the development of the movement wasn’t ruined by him when he started, but pioneered by him but ruined by others as the years passed on. And this can be talked about with many decisions, Kevin Durant's decision to leave the OKC Thunder to win Championships with Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors, other teams trying to make super teams like the Lakers with Kobe Bryant bringing in Dwight Howard and Steve Nash, or even the change in NBA Super Star Culture where players can do what they like when they like and can even make decisions for their team within. Whether that's Lebron James becoming Le'GM, Kawhi Leonard getting the Clippers to bring Paul George to LA, or Kevin Durant and others trying to force their way out of team situations.
