    Don't care about him changing teams, or any other narratives, but don't care for his playstyle. Great passing vision obviously but IMO he wastes his talent by playing so much on the perimeter. Would appreciate him more if he posted up more often (he did a good deal last year, but even more would be preferable), gave 100% effort on defense consistently, and crashed the boards harder/boxed out a ton.

    I respect him as a player wholeheartedly. He's a top 45 player of all time and will probably retire top 40. Top 10 player in the league. Don't like when his fans attempt to sneak him into top 10 GOAT lists though.

    Do I like LeBron: lets put it this way, if they won last years NBA finals, I would have broken my TV and gotten drunk and cried

    Hate him. He took all integrity for basketball and shit on it through collusion.

    I don't like him much, but I respect his ugly yet effective game and physical gifts as an athlete.

    You're asking for a lot of stamina over the long season and postseason. Especially for the go-to-guy on offense.

    1. Wizards
    2. No. But I respect what he does on the court. Of all the players I've been able to watch for their entire career, Lebron is the best.

    I haven't been able to root for him since he walked up to Agent 0 at the free throw line and started shit talking.

    Eh, I don't really care for him. He does a lot of things on the court the opposite way an NBA player should. Sure it's stuff most role players try to do (flop, go for stats, dance like a clown, make dumb comments/statements), but when you're the face of the league, a self-proclaimed top 4 player to ever live, it gets a bit annoying.

    That said, he seems like a pretty nice guy. Very involved with his family/community and such.

    1. Miami
    2. I don't like the guy. He has run for the easiest path twice now, the narratives are marketing bullshit. There are tons of guys out there playing for teams that are in cities where they didn't grow up.

    "Earned not given"

    The problem with that is he couldn't earn anything on his own, he had to be given it because he sucks at getting people to follow him by being a leader. He went to Miami, and was given a decked out roster which guaranteed at least a Championship, then he went back home and said look what I have now, come play with me please.

    He's a big baby. The guys that did follow him disgust me as well. This type of shit ruins the league, people all following one guy to one team for an easy ring.

    1. Bulls
    2. Loved him before the decision, do not like him since. But I do agree that he is the best player in the league currently (Durant when prime will be better)

    Yes.

    It helps that he seems to be a genuinely nice guy.

    He does this type of stuff all the time. That way if they choke he can say, we just were not the best team. He is full of shit in that regard. He KNOWS on paper Cavs are the best team. That is why I liked Jordan better, he didn't suck up to anyone.
