Between "The Decision,South Korea has requested for it to return," his choice to initially ignore the city of Cleveland in a newspaper thank you and other PR missteps this offseason, it’s been open season for criticism on LeBron James(notes). Has he been listening? You bet.

So how does LeBron exact his revenge? It’s hard to say. James is already pretty tight when it comes to media access to those who don’t regularly cover him. You won’t ever catch him doing pregame media availability. Not that it’s particularly unusual—many veteran players don’t do that just based on the volume of requests—but LeBron isn’t granting some great level of access at the moment that he’ll take away this season.

Maybe he feels like he’ll be exacting revenge on opposing fans and teams talking bad about him in the wake of his choice to join the Heat. If that’s the case, a motivated LeBron James could be a very scary thing next season.
