Wouldn't I be saying Lebron was the greatest ever since my team lost too him?
Why would I try to be a "hater"? That would only make the Thunder's loss look worse.
I don't hate Lebron at all. Where did I ever hate on him?
I said he wasn't as good as Jordan. That means I'm hating? Haha. That's the problem will all these people sucking his dick. If you don't bow down to him as he greatest you're a hater.
If my life depended on a game I would take Jordan and Kobe over Lebron. I would live. You would take James and he would elevate for a shot and then pass it. You're chances of survival would be about 40%. His record in the Finals.
I say he is a great player and give him props yet I'm still a hater when I point out his short comings....losing record in the finals, missing a ton of shots, problems in crunch time, etc.
He has finally started making a few big shots but he isn't thos "King" you think he is.Comment -

You have to genuflect.
LeBron is a great player. He'll go down as second best of all time. There's nothing wrong with that.Comment -

At this point I would take Kobe over him. If Jamea wins a few more rings he will be right there.
You can't go 2-4 in the Finals and be the best ever when you were gifted one of those rings by he Spurs. 3-3 is a lot better 4-3 probably solidifies him #2.Comment -

#78That's just the thing. I've always said he was great. I just said he wasn't as good as Jordan. Then when I compare him people get but hurt like I talked bad about their mother or kicked their dog.

I still have Kobe 2 but not by much. I concede that James will pass him soon enough.Comment -

To be fair though Kobe demanded a trade in 2007. Let's not forget that whole thing. I love Bryant but he wanted out of LA. Then they got Gasol and it was all well and good.Comment -

Morons. Wade is a shell of himself now and the Heat had a ton of injuries.
Lebron is great but not Jordan, sorry. He isn't even Kobe but he "could" pass him.
If he loses this series he will be 2-4 and lucky he isn't 1-5. If he wins, he redeems himself for some of the early failures.Comment -

#85Laker and Wiz are right here.
Lebron left Miami BC he knew they were finished and saw opportunity in Cleveland. He knew he had Kyrie and he could pursuade Love to come there.
If Cleveland was so important he wouldn't have left in the first place. Come on.
Now he can win and repair the damage he did to his reputation. It's a win win.Comment -

#90"Staying the course" is just some false virtue that armchair sports philosophers hold dear. The truth is, had Lebron stayed in Cleveland, they would have continued making the playoffs, but also had been deprived of ever really assembling a championship caliber roster because Lebron's presence would have ensured they wouldn't be getting any lofty draft picks. James gave them seven solid years, which yielded only a conference title. He pretty much had to leave to allow the franchise to marinate in his absence, then return as the final ingredient to a championship stew.Comment -

Cleveland was a playoff team and very close to winning the East before Lebron left. Lebron decided to take the easy way and bolted to Miami, Something Jordan or Kobe would have not done.
So Cleveland sucks while Lebron is winning in Miami and gets high draft picks.
Miami gets old, Cleveland starts getting a good young nucleus, and Lebron bolts back to Cleveland so he has a better chance of winning again.
I don't blame him. I'm just being real. He came back BC he saw he could win in Cleveland and they were on the rise. Not BC he cares so much about Cleveland.
He didn't so Cleveland any favors by leaving BC they sucked while he was in Miami for the most part.Comment -

Kobe sure as hell threatened to leave. He also demanded the front office trade Andrew Bynum for Jason Kidd.
Lebron had to leave in order to get a ring. There were no free agents coming to Cleveland, and they were too good to get better through the draft. It's as simple as that.Comment -

They went to the Finals his first tour in Cleveland and were contending before he left for an easier path to a ring.
He had problems with Boston so he teamed up wih a few All-stars to get over the hump. It is what it is.Comment -

If if he was the greatest, why couldn't he get guys to come play WITH him in Cleveland. If he truly gave a shit about Cleveland, he could have gotten wade and bosh, or insert two superstars here, to play with him in Cleveland. That's what leaders do.Comment -

#95Well, it was evident Scottie Pippen or Pau Gasol weren't showing up at Cleveland arena anytime soon, so yeah, he left.
I guess he should have wallowed another seven years to the team that drafted him just to please the "stay the coursers."
If "easy" championships were Lebron's only criteria, then there were plenty of other teams he could have chosen as a landing spot.Comment -
