Yeah, the prime-time special was stupid, but his decision probably wasn't. If he wanted to ever be considered one of the greats it was. He's never going to be respected by his peers. Who gives a [expletive]? He's the best player in the game and everybody knows it, he's going to get paid, and this gives him a great chance to get some rings. He'll always be considered one of the greats. No he won't. Kobe will, Lebron won't.
