On the court it's easy, off the court, I give that man the ULTIMATE props :salute:

Nah man, on the court he somehow is on pace to be the all-time scoring leader while being a pass-first player, demonstrates elite athletic ability and elite bball IQ at the same time, and has won 4 MVPs (4th all-time) and 3 Finals MVPs (2nd all-time) while hitting more buzzer-beaters in the playoffs than anyone in history. Like Cladyclad said,
u have to nitpick the most dumbest shyt to hate on him with

Give the man his credit. MJ nor Kobe nor Shaq ever did no shyt like that. Dude is changing the lives of thousands of kids for the better. Has nothing to do with what he does on the court, this is some real G.O.A.T shyt.


OP a full bandwagon GSW stan with 0 understanding of professional basketball or who put me on the ignore list for pointing out that without discussion he a bytch.


BUT

I dapped this. LeBron on his GOAT black man shyt, black excellence. Like the dude’s play on the court or hate it - when it comes to truly giving back to at risk BLACK youth.. he’s the man. I’m personally a big fan of his game and this says a lot about him - creating a special legacy.

Black man with a beautiful black family, put his black homies on his team, with black wealth. And now he built a school for black children. Why on Earth would you as a black person hate on him? It's ludacris to me.

Anyway shout out to Lebron and his team. Hopefully we see more athletes do this for our people.

One of the lasting impacts from LeBron James’ I Promise School will be how it inspires others to give back and make a change in their community as well. Not everyone has the means or the reach to do anything of the same magnitude. But we all have the ability to make improvements to society in our own ways.

According to Tom Withers of The Associated Press, this is exactly how Browns cornerback T.J. Carrie feels. Carrie told Withers:

“I’m talking to my team now. OK, LeBron’s doing this, we’re not on his level, but the level that we’re on, what can we do to achieve and make a huge difference within the community out here?”

James’ efforts are starting a conversation among athletes. They want to join in and follow his lead. Carrie is taking this seriously, and he wants to continue to build on what LeBron has started.

Carrie went on to say:

“LeBron has done an amazing job here in the state of Ohio, period,” Carrie said. “It sets precedents for what we should do as athletes on how we are a role model to a lot of kids that we may not know, that we may not see but that know us.”

There is always more work to be done. The I Promise School is a stunning show of goodwill from the most famous basketball player on the planet. Now it looks as though his efforts are leading others to join him.
