    Boyz, Let's Talk LeBron

    Another triple double tonight.....but they lose to Detroit, their 3rd in a row. Has there ever been another superstar (outside of WWE) who feels more contrived? He's clearly a phenom, but I cannot stand watching him and his team play. Every other player has to cater to him regardless if it helps the team win. He's 32 but is starting to look like Shawn Kemp. Tom friggin' Brady is 39 and never takes a play off, never mind a game. Lebron is the epitome of a millennial douchebag. Yeah he's good--but he ain't great!

    He's the best ever; the Cavs realized that when he went to Miami.

    Cav's can't win unless Lebron is on the court. They had a 13 point lead in the 1st quarter, he goes to the bench and the lead was cut. Same shit in the 4th quarter. Lebron sits and the Cav's get the shits. These fukkers suck without him on the court. He sets up the team when he's out there and communicates on defense for them to rotate. When he's on the bench, no one can dish out dimes and no one will protect the paint. They are Charmin soft as well.

    Lebron James is probably the most valuable player to any sports team throughout time. I would challenge anyone to come up with someone more valuable to their team.

    Can't wait until Leblow reaches Kobe's age in which he was on the decline... so I can sit back and laugh at this drama queen.

    Watch him pout... and cry. Those will be very joyous times in my life.

    He is an all time great but not an all time great with respect

    His personality kills him

    Jordan was so much more respected as was Kobe

    James is a known pussy throughout the league

    Does Tom Brady have more Championships? Just wondering.

    And if you can't beat the Detroit Pistons... something is heavily wrong with you.

    Lbj has been the best player in the nba for nearly a decade ever since he relinquished it from kobe and dirk but he's perhaps the biggest baby as well.

    He acts like the best kid playing pickup that wants the 2nd, 3rd and 4th best players on his team when picking teams

    LbJ should go down as a top 5 all time great based on skill, talent and achievements alone but his persona may sway opinions whether it's warranted or not.

    His talent is on the same level as the greatest and his ability to transform that talent into results on the court is a learning curve he mastered early on.

    The same way a rookie or 2nd year nba player adjusts to the nature and flow of the NBA and translate athletic potential into on court results so to did lebron adjust his immense talent to master winning in the playoffs year after year. His trips to the finals is ridiculous

    The biggest drawback on his outstanding career will be his "decision" to go to miami in order to amass as many titles as possible by manufacture rather than organically like so many of the legends before him (michael, magic, larry, Isaiah, kobe, duncan, hakeem, etc.). Then turn around at the end of his career and say look I have X amount of championships.

    Could be viewed as changing of the guard in nba business landscape when KG did it with Boston and sheed with detroit or it could be viewed as he didn't man up and try to win with the cards that he was dealt

    LeBron masterminded his own destiny athletically and financially. He is an era of player control and was aware and recognized it before any other athlete. They originally thought garnering huge contracts meant power. LeBron changed that dynamic completely. The GM and owner are at his whim. He is a CEO within the game who uses his power and influence to improve his situation. Anyone who thinks that isn't smart is just an idiot. You find fault because he didn't follow a path created by others. I credit a man for forging his own.

    Brady and Belichick needed each other.

    Lebron shows up in the finals no matter who his coach is.

    He played in the east at a time the east was as bad as it could be. Now that the east is slowly getting better he is getting older.

    And he's still on top.

    He should be MVP this year. Hell, he should be MVP every year.

    Lakerboy, who is your MVP of the league?
