What a bitch.
Honestly, Dan got screwed. He got the run around. Bron ran the show. He got the players he wanted. He got the coaching staff fired, pulled in his new coach. He pulled the shots, and then left. Dan feels betrayed. And honestly it was kinda justified. He has the balls to take the shots at Bron. He knows he quit in the playoffs. That "misterious" elbow injury that we heard not a single thing about in Ohio after the loss to Boston.

And while part of it did sound whiney, the whole "several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up" is completely true. You didnt see Wade, Bosh, Boozer, or Amar'e do anything like this. Just one big show. And I love how he made the decision in Conneticut, he didnt want to be anywhere near Ohio.
