#38LeBron still owes Miami 5 titles... remember?
Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6 but 7 titles were promised from LeBum's mouth.
LeBum is an all time great because of his sheer size and athleticism but he has never lived up to the ESPN and Nike hype machine that went crazy when he hit the scene. Not even close.Comment -

#40This coming from the guy who was trying to convince himself that okc with Melo was a good bet to win it all
Pretty sure lebron loyalists and apologists wouldn't want that kind of person to represent his cause when he writes a biography one day and includes his efighters in itComment -

#43you can call him a jerk off for tattooing "the chosen one" on his back.
you can say he was an idiot for "the decision" special in summer 2010 to leave cleveland for miami
you can say he shy's away from the last second shot or that he used to.
you can begrudge him for leaving miami to go back to cleveland.
you can begrudge him for many things.
but one thing that only a Know-nothing Sports-moron or someone completely biased against him would say, is that he did Not live up to the hype.
this is one of the most asinine things i have ever read.
i have followed sports for nearly 4 decades.
i have followed the NBA since 1985
NO PLAYER THAT HAS ENTERED THE LEAGUE IN THAT TIME HAS FACED MORE PRESSURE TO WIN THAN THIS GUY
PROBABLY NO PLAYER IN HISTORY (NOT WILT, NOT RUSSELL, NOT MAGIC, NOT BIRD, NOT MICHAEL) FACED AS MUCH PRESSURE AND EXPECTATIONS COMING INTO THE LEAGUE THAN THIS GUY
his team's games were on national television during his senior year of HS multiple times for crying out loud
cover of every sports magazine when he was only 18
Michael was picked #3. Kobe #13. Lebron was picked NUMBER ONE and was the end all be all according to the sports media
in 15 years in the league he was won 3 titles and been to the NBA finals an astonishing NINE TIMES
again, love him or hate him, that's fine, but please do not insult my sports intelligence by saying he UNDERACHIEVED vs the expectations.
that is COMPLETELY ASININE especially since NO ONE BEFORE HIM IN THE NBA FACED THE PRESSURE HE HAS
oh and btw, at 33.5 years old, HE AIN'T DONE
i am fit to be tied

Rafa Nadal is the best tennis player on clay (mic drop)
Patriots were the best team in the past 15 years (mic drop)
Michael Phelps is the best swimmer in the world (mic drop)
OP made a thread trying to tell everyone OKC to win in 2018 was a good bet for 25 whole dollars (pick the fukking mic back up)Comment -

LeBRon never won a Ring where SOMEONE ELSE won the Finals MVP
Shaq won the first THREE MVP's of Kobe first three Rings.. without Kobe,
Lakers win anyways.. in one of them versus Indiana, Kobe played in only two games, and Lakers won in 6 games
after Kobe chased Shaq away.. SHAQ Won a Ring in MIAMI with Wade.. the NEXT YEAR..
lakers needed to add TWO 7 FT players to replace Shaq. Gasol and Bynum. BOTH All-Stars..
When Jordan left Bulls (first retirement) Bulls went from 57-Wins to 55 Wins.
When LeBron left Cavs.. Cleveland went from 61-Wins to 19 Wins.

Kobe was extremely key in all 3 finals victories. without him, they may not even make the finals even though Shaq was there, let alone win themComment -

#53I’m pretty sure Brady nor Rodgers shared the same expectations coming out of COLLEGE that LBJ had coming out of HS. That’s what draft position has to do with it. There’s a reason the number one pick carries more weight than say a 6th rounder.Comment -

The vast majority of #1 picks never put up great stats and never win a ring. This guy has won 3 including one in the craphole known as cleveland who as a city has shitttt the bed for a century.
Lived up to the hype and surpassed it. Still going strong. As trump would say, this guy is just a WINNERComment -

#55Agree with you Ratzz but in fairness I need to fact check you here. Kobe started and played in 5 games in the 2000 finals vs Indiana
Kobe was extremely key in all 3 finals victories. without him, they may not even make the finals even though Shaq was there, let alone win them
Shaq averaged 38 pts for series
Kobe averaged 15 pts for Series
Kobe SINGLEHANDEDLY cost Lakers Game 5 (4-20 FG) for 8 pts. shot .250 %
Kobe shot .367 FG% for ENTIRE SERIES... and shot .200 3P%
those are miserable numbers. miserable. Lakers with with a regular SG in there

#63Take a look at the astonishingly high numbers of top draft picks who never panned out and much of that was due to the pressure. Unless you're magic johnson most #1 draft picks go to crappy teams and they flame out.
The vast majority of #1 picks never put up great stats and never win a ring. This guy has won 3 including one in the craphole known as cleveland who as a city has shitttt the bed for a century.
