    was never a person who loved him.... didn't ride him when he was on cleveland... and didn't ride him when he went to miami.... but around a quarter in the first season with miami I started to notice all the hatred towards the man. 

    The hatred towards Lebron is absolutely ridiculous and it aggravates me to a point I actually get pissed. Why do I care so much? I honestly don't know. I am a nets fan and I stay true but I find my self pumping my fist over and over for lebron James. As much as everyone challenges his character... SHAME ON YOU... you know whats character, character is keeping calm and doing you ( being the best basketball player in the world and most talented NBA PLAYER EVER) while everyone is watching you under a microscope every game. This guy is the MIAMI HEAT. Look at the point differentials I don't need to explain. 

    Lebron is the ultimate teammate and people don't see that because they don't want to believe he is and people want him to be a ball hog. Lebron instills a confidence in his team and he trusts every player on his team. If he believes your open he will pass. He is always trying to do whats best for his team. But yet he gets bashed for being an asshole who is scared of the last shot.... 

    Also for the 4th Quarter nonsense go look up stats.... For most of you un-knowledgable fans Kobe is your man. Lebron has a better shooting % in 4th quarters as well as in shots taken 2 minutes or less to tie or take the lead in the game. 

    THE FACTS AND STATS ARE THERE SO LOOK.

    AND DONT BE IGNORANT ... to ignore the fact that Lebron James is the most talented NBA player ever. I don't care he doesn't hit clutch shots and I don't care he doesn't meet people standards to people who know the game he is the best. TALENT WISE... BEST EVER (PERIOD) 


    Now unfortunately the series got off to a bad start and Wade is obviously struggling with his bum knee. If Wade can't find a way to perform like the second superstar on the team than I think OKC will make quick work of the Heat. And of course the narrative will be Lebron James can't win in the finals... blah blah blah and if you jump on that bandwagon shame on you....

    LEBRON JAMES IS THE MOST TALENTED BASKETBALL PLAYER NBA HAS EVER SEEN... THROW AWAY THE CLUTCH BULLSHIT

    Lebron is a KING. He is an explosive. I have more respect for him now since he made a handshake with a okc fan after the game 1 loss.

    That's classic my friend.

    It's not about his talent...if he stayed in Cleveland he definitely would not have as much haters.  The fact that he tried to take what he believes is the easy road to a Championship is what aggravates people, in my opinion.  They root against him because nobody respects people who take the easy route...similar to people who are feed with a silver spoon. And the celebrations of rings before the play one game is the icing on the cake.

    Mt friend Jordan had pippen and rodman the great rebound player of that time. It was a coincidence that they were together. Kobe had big Shaq. He also had help. Lebron knew he won't get jackshit with cleveland. To be honest he was right, So he decided. to go to a team which has a better chance.

    If I was lebron and I knew my chances are very slim then I would also have chose to get the hell out of there.

    Jordan also had will purdue, bill cartwright, steve herr, criag hodges...not exactly superstars...all of those are equal or worse than the talent miami has now on the bench...

    When James went to Miami, he was joining a team with a top 5 player in Wade and probably a top 15-20 player in Bosh...

    If thats how you need to win thats fine...they still cant do it

    By the way, Wade won a ring with far inferior talent than they have now

    The fact of the matter is about LeBron 

    Has he ever been on the news for any of the following 

    Cheating on his wife with prostitutes 
    Beating his girlfriend
    Drugs or drinking 
    violence 

    or for that matter any of the things that people like Tiger woods , Chris Brown , Charley Sheen ect ect ect get up to and are still loved by millions , i was shocked when tiger returned to the golf course to tee off after his return to golf after the news about his infidelity came to light only to be greeted by a standing ovation as if he had returned from a war as a national hero , its a joke Lebron gets so much hate , OTHER than how he handled leaving Cleveland , which might i add Carmelo , Howard ect ect are not much better and they get no stick , LeBron is a stand up guy , who goes out of his way on and off the court to be a role Model .

    WOULD you rather have your kid say to you when he is young , daddy i want to be like Lebron james when i grow up ...... or daddy i want to beat women and fuck person like Tiger and Charley ....and yes yes we can joke about it , but in all fairness the guy is a good role model , it hasnt gone to his head to the point where he feels like he is invincible , i personally think he is pretty humble .

    give him a break.

    With the whole Cleveland thing... If you look back... he asked for some help around him. He got Jameson (spelling) and Shaq. I think thats where it clicked in his head this isn't going to work. They were never going to get any one good in a draft because from day 1 he was a superstar and led the Cavs to the top of the east. It was a bottomless pit for Lebron... look at Kobe, 3 of his championships are because of Shaq... and 2 he had gasol and a nice supporting cast. For Michael he always had rodman pippin. I mean everyone had a supporting cast and won. This guy takes a shitty and I mean shitty cleveland cavs team to the championship and gets blamed they don't win.... lol please.

    I agree so far they have not been able to win. This is the 2nd shot and they are down not out. But what I was saying is that in order to win championship you need to have other good talented players beside you. I don't blame him at all for leaving cavs. Look at the cavs. They fuckin SUCK ! I guess cavs was a one man army. This guy made cavs look good as soon as he leaves the cavs are pile of shit.

    Thats not setting goals...

    People say Lebron "haters" are out of control, the Lebron "lovers" are just as bad.

    Did you see how Miami introduced themselves???  I mean come on.  People wonder why so much "hate" is directed at this team.  Was that called for??  They had a circus and a parade.  They didnt even play a game.  Then mock the NBA and say they would win 8 rings, and all they need are those 3 players and be the best ever.

    Reality check, they did this to themselves....

    I repected the man when he was on Cleveland. I lost all respect with his press conference announcing his Miami dream team. Lebron go fuck yourself and take Pat Riley with you 

    Don't forget his immature bullshit last year when he was mocking Dirk being sick

    I have no problem with him leaving.  I never did.  He finished his contract and he left.  But, to form a super team knowing thats your only chance, it was a weak move.   Then to mock the league the last two years, I couldnt be happier its all blowing up in their face

    In regards to his press conference only thing he did wrong was not notify cleveland he decided to move on before. OTHER than that nothing was wrong with it. As a hater it is easy to say he glorified him self and he made it a huge deal etc... but imagine what he went through everyday being asked where you going? where you going? maybe that was the best plan to tell everybody I am not saying anything till this date... and thats what he did. Like I said only mistake not calling Cleveland.. and maybe a few phone calls to the losers as well.

    There is a logic behind his move to Heat. People don't understand. He is doing what he can. The guy had 30 points what more do you want. If Wade or bosh doesn't show up how is it his fault. Hate on Bosh or wade.

    They wanted him to win with cavs. He took the cavs too final. Praise that man. Taking a shit ass team without support to finals is fuckin AMAZING !!!

    The problem is Lebron doesn't make others AROUND him feel better to SIGNIFICANTLY raise their level of play compared to the likes of Bird, Magic and MJ. Maybe someday, but thru Game 1 of this years Finals , I'm having a very hard time "smoking" what's bein' passed around

    Now KD, he has got some damn good shit in OKC locker room air vents Just sayin.....

    Take Pippen and Rodman out. Then we will see if Jordan can win it all by himself.

    I dont agree about him being the best TALENT wise, his dominance mostly because hes just a physical phenom. Its tough to stop a 6'8 240lb beast with a 2.1 40 and a 68' vertical. Not that hes not talented, just think they're guys out there who play great without being able to dunk from the parking lot. Durant is the man in my opinion, provides so much versatility. And he doesnt disappear in the final 12 minutes.

    Exactly

    Jordan had Pippen...people think Jordan had scorers and all-stars everywhere...Jordan made every player on his team play that much better.  Lebron doesnt do that

    You mean the Rodman who scored about 4 points a game???

    People make it seem like Jordan was surrounded by amazing players.  He had Pippen on offense, thats it. 

    He was just so good at making everyone better around him.  Lebron doesnt do that

    Wade won a ring with far inferior talent than James has now.

    What do Lebron lovers say about that???
