yeah lebron is egotistic, has been spoiled since hs and made an unnecessary sh1t show out of the decision, but i think he learned from that. it wasn't a good idea, but when you're treated like property and an asset (like most athletes are) i don't blame him for doing what he wanted to do without getting approval. and then how gilbert fanned the flames of hate made me want to root for lebron even more.

i think back to how the atlanta hawks traded nique and that was one of the most disgusting betrayals i've ever witnessed. so "the decision" has no bearing on me.

some parts of lebron's offensive game ain't the prettiest and he's a brute at times, but there's no denying he is an all around dominant player. one of the few in the league that can go to any mediocre team in the league and automatically turn them into a contender. and that goes for west or east. his passing, floor vision, set up game, defense and basketball iq is up there with the other greats.

some of the hate is opportunistic jokes, but some of yall dead serious. sports is one of the few industries where people are so emo they put principle to the side. bron is a family man, tries to lead by example and has matured into a great player and a better person. pat riley deserves the credit for some of that, but bron also had to commit himself to it too.


tldr... some of yall just miserable :manny:

Dude has a lot of b*tch ass tendencies, (flopping, the Decision, running to team with 2 other all-stars) like what has already been stated.

For me it goes back to his senior year of high school. I didn't like all the hype & media dikk riding that he was getting and he hadn't even played 1 minute in an NBA game, and people were already proclaiming him "king" & "chosen one". They should've let him prove himself first. Think about it, this dude had is high school games televised on ESPN. Plus he was handed the high school dunk contest trophy, even though Shannon Brown had more creative & difficult dunks. Plus, a lot of what dude does basketball wise doesn't seem genuine, and he comes off as a try hard at lot of times.

Off the court, dude does a lot for his city & neighboring communities, and for that I salute him.

:mjlol::russ::mjlol: U actually believe this shyt. Nobody in the team can score, but let's effectively take the ball out the best scorer in the leagues hands and pass it to some bums, let's not even try and get Kobe to get a assist, let's let him bring the ball down the court, and pass it and stand away in the corner and give no effort or nothin and let's allow smush, kwame, mihm and odem to take all the shots :lolbron:

Kobe went out like a hoe

Those aren't beliefs those are facts. If you remember that series you'd know this. The narrative has been anything but factual. Any team aside from the Suns and Kobe can get away with jacking shots but Phoenix was the only team that could offset prime Kobe's scoring. It's funny cuz if he had jacked a bunch of shots and got blown out everyone would say he didn't trust his teammates. When he tried to get them involved by putting the ball in their hands it ain't work out.

That Lakers team was young, not that talented, and had no business even being in that series whereas the cavs actually had a chance if Lebron actually tried.

Oh, and Denver ain't shyt neither y'all bout to be some shyt for the next decade. :ahh:

He's a fantastic athlete.

Loved him when he came in the league. Amazing runs to the finals with no supporting cast really.

The decision was disgusting.
Couple times a year does something incredibly corny.


So wouldn't say I hate him. Just have no reason to root for him. He is an incredible player who is just corny

Write it down here and be honest with yourself. Why not?

Is it because of The Decision?
Is it because you can't identify or relate to him?
Is it because is he threatens to surpass or is compared to Jordan?
Is it because you're racist to some degree?

Will you care when he is gone from the game you love?

Dont care about the decision
Im Black but cannot relate to him

The Jordan comparisons are retarded, Kobe clearly showed that hes the only one to be compared to MJ
and I will not care at all when hes retired.

Their are your answers

Its bigger than LeBron. I still find it hard to believe the general public, especially those that preach black people are too forgiving, collectively covered their ears, turned their cheeks and just forgot about the grand wizards letter. Sorry/not sorry but I hope Gilbert never partakes in any parade, god bless golden state

I only get a lil agitated when they start that "Better than Michael Jordan" shyt.....So, at times, I hope to see him fail---WHEN IT COMES TO WINNING ANOTHER TITLE---I just couldn't deal with the media sensationalism/cob slobbing, which would be sure to follow.His performance in the Finals last year was some of the most overrated shyt in sports EVER.They were talking about giving him the Finals MVP award in a losing effort.On the surface, his number looked good, but his sheer volume of shots/shooting percentages were:scust:.And how can he be so unstoppable when Andre Iguadala had him cuffed up like muthafukka?He couldn't do shyt against AI....Nicca scored 36 a game because he took 36 shots.And the media called it "The greatest Finals performance of all time?:what:.That's the "sensationalism" I'm talking about


As far as individual talent, breh's probably the greatest "specimen" of all time.I think his mental is a lil shaky, tho

:mjlol::mjlol::mjlol::mjlol: So Phil instructions were for Kobe to not even try and get assist, just stand in the corner looking like a loss puppy, not even play without the ball, no cuts or nothin?


:blessed: We still got a goat level defense, wolf signed to a rape deal, no fly zone still back there. And our offense can only get better than it was last year. :scust: At the end of the day y'all still the raiders, legit piece of shyt franchise, with a legit piece of shyt baseball field
