Why do you hate him sp?
He follows the money and his best chance for a ring. He has a fuck ton of athleticism and talent but is a huge pussy.
>>66434499
He skipped college and that hole in his skillset is what's kept him from any rings other than the ones he bought (i.e. Miami).
>>66434499
He single handedly ruined basketball with ring chasing bullshit and having the entire league cater to his ego.
>>66436794
You're thinking of Kobe.
>>66436728
>talent
his primary attribute is his freakish athleticism
he's an average shooter and his slashing consists of strictly bulling his way onto his right hand and getting bailed out by the refs
he still hasnt developed moving j and his post game is sub par
kobe's overall game was leaps and bounds superior
>>66434499
I don't hate him, but I do dislike him.
Why?
Simply because he's not manly.
You're trapped behind enemy lines and you can choose one athlete to partner with to get out - maybe you'll choose Mark Messier or Jim Brown or Rory MacDonald or Tie Domi or Marshawn Lynch or even little Floyd Mayweather.
But no one who wants to survive would call on LeBron. He might quit because he stubbed his toe, or got chilly or wanted a lemonade.
He's a man, but he isn't manly, and that's why I don't like him.
>>66436881
you know who also had questionable talent but just go by on his athleticism?
Shaq.
>five rings
>>66437002
it's a team game, retard
>>66434499
I used to hate him because he came off as arrogant, out of touch, and ungrateful. Plus he made fun of Dirk for having a cold during the NBA Finals.
Now I don't mind him because he seems alot more self-aware.
>>66436881
Never said he was the best but he still isn't bad. Although he doesn't have the best traditional shooting skills he still has the inside game locked down as far as his position/size goes
>>66437026
barkley wasn't nearly as gifted as lebron but was a force in the paint
lebron is soft. thats his problem
>>66437012
I know this.
This is why Shaq's rings, Kobe's rings, and Lebron's rings are irrelevant to this conversation.
And it's why I fucking hate Lebron.
>>66437042
people that put weight into >muh rings as criteria for evaluating individual greatness are immediately DQd from any sort of legit discussion
>>66437040
Free throws will get just as many points
whiney pussy ass fuck boy that likes to stir shit up to get attention, could conceivably have no rings, and he ruined kevin love's career probably
I don't hate him.
If his son inherits his freak athleticism and develops a shot on par with say klay Thompson would he be the GOAT?
>>66436881
youre stupid. other players have had freakish athleticism and didnt get 4 mvps. hes also a very good defender, an elite passer, has incredible basketball iq. anyone who says lebron isnt an elite talent is stupid.
call him an egotist, a choker, whatever, but you can't deny his talent, unless youre a fucking retard.
>>66434499
hes a punk bitch that chokes under pressure
I dislike him because he makes Millions for doing literally nothing.
>>66437974
I said it's his athleticism that sets him apart though.
Learn to read.
>>66438756
what a faggot
>>66437914
Yeah, no question.
I hated him because he moved to Miami. But I forgave him when he came back home ;^)
>>66437974
his passing skills are average at best, and his basketball IQ is above average at best. you let ESPN dictate everything you know about lebron. just because someone averages 7 assists, doesn't mean they're a great passer. 1/4th of his assists come from deferring in the 4th quarter, and he averages almost 4 TO's a game for his career. and his basketball IQ is better than most, but his inability to lead a team on his own has been documented in literally every year in his career that he was in cleveland. without a team of crafty veterans around him, he can't win shit.
But I don't
>>66434499
there's so many fucking reasons, i don't know where to start
•listening to him do interviews is such a pain. he never passes up the chance to talk about how good of a player he is, or how good of a leader he is. this is his worst attribute, imo. he's just so fucking arrogant, it's mind boggling
•on that note, ESPN never stops praising him like he's the greatest human being to ever live. they rated him #3 all time, which is ludicrous. i know this isn't his fault, but still
•he's always bitching at his teammates on the floor, on national television. he acts like a fucking baby having temper tantrum when they don't listen to him.
•is arguably the greatest choker in professional sports history. even now, he still takes the 4th quarter off in close games. he would only have 1 ring to date, if it wasn't for ray allen
•the flopping in his earlier career. it was so egregious that it was undeniable, yet he had the gall to say "nah, i don't flop. i don't need to"
honestly, i could keep going. but he's just the fucking worst, and honestly i think the game of basketball will be 10x better with him gone
undeserved accolades (just backed by aggressive sponsors)
spoiled (diva is very appropriate, demands rest day, throws tantrum)
attention-whore (maybe also by his sponsors, unfollows own team for drama like a kardashian)
idiot (almost always fails during game deciding moments)
>>66437191
you just know
>>66439677
Espn has even started fellating his son. It was embarrassing. Just go to commercials at that point
>>66439677
Larry Bird catches too much shit from white guilters and black people that don't want to admit a white player was really that good.
because he was legitimately a contender for best ever.
>flops harder than a Canadian man's dick at a Los Vegas Strip joint
>softer than a Swedish man's cock while watching lesbian porn
>has made a career of traveling to the basket and flopping to get sent to the free throw line
>mediocre at best at free throws
>mediocre at best at all non athletic basketball skills; average handles, undeservedly praised passing as all he does is travel to the basket and fling it to a corner/elbow where one of his all star/hall of fame teammates is ready to take a spot up 3, low shot iq (tries to force the issue and shoot 3s when he is shit at them), low basketball iq in general (very high career turnovers), choker to the max, little bitch (cramps), quitter (Boston series when he was on his first cavs stint), obnoxiously arrogant, stupid nigger (hasn't developed a post game when that will save his ass when his roids stop giving him athleticism
>from Ohio (worst state in the country)
>plays for Cleveland (worst city in Ohio)
>gets routinely spanked by a geriatric spurs team when he "should have" (according to the kikes at espn) dominated the league
He is essentially an overrated Dominique Wilkins
