    Default When Lebron joined Miami, I made a bet with my friend

    I lost the bet. My bet was the Heat would win 5 years in a row. I ended up losing $700. 400 for the 5 peat and 300 for the first year. And the Heat were up against Dallas and i was about to win the first 300 for year one.

    I thought that there was no way that team could lose. Cuz at the time they called Lebron a one man team. So if you add another MVP player and then another franchise player in Bosh, then in theory there’s no way he could lose. That’s why he said he would win 8.

    Boy did he get embarrassed in 2011. I had to pay my friend over 11 months, we had an installment plan. He was a bit upset about it but..

    How could people look at Lebron as a King when he loses with other stars around him.. It makes zero sense to me. I took the Kings word and lost 700.

    That’s why the hype never made sense to me.

    How do people call him a "genius player" when he plays exactly the same way he did when he as 12 years old and he coach put the ball in his hands and said "do whatever you want kid".

    Since then he's been a ball-dominator and has never altered or adjusted his game - he's still a ball-dominator.. that's hardly genius... and his ball-dominance stopped the ball movement needed to excel on the championship level

    But that is why Jordan is better than him and Kobe.

    Mike had to learn to play within a high functioning team offense and concepts before he was drafted by the Bulls where he was then needed to be a one-man show, allowing him to showcase his game and talent.

    And then once again in order to win on the highest level was reigned in by a good coach to play off the ball more allowing others to flourish while still producing leading to championship victories.

    From the way you type and your ridiculous topics in the off court forum I find it hard to believe you would have been old enough in 2010 to have that much to bet. I hope not at least. That would make you at least 25-28. People that old shouldnt be making some of the topics you do.
