    For all the hate he gets, he does a lot of good for his community.

    Huge LeBron fan. He gets hate for: the decision, flopping, and challenging MJ for Greatest of all-time. I don't know a single person who hates LeBron off the court.

    It's good when the rich and famous put their money where their mouth is.

    Props to LeBron.

    Call me a hater, but this is just like celebs who do tons of charity after bad publicity. Everyone falls for it so easily. It's all PR.

    You're a hater. What bad publicity are you talking about? LeBron has been helping communities since he got in the league....

    All players help the community. It's part of the NBA Cares stuff. You didn't really hear about LeBron being such an amazing person until after the Decision when he really turned up the PR machine.

    I used to hate lebron.. for several reasons
    But he's grown on me lately. Mainly because I found a new person/persona to hate.

    Curry. ( I hate his face! And wife!)
    Thompson ( SKeeter looking ass)
    GREEN ( Fck this terd)
    Durant ( NO GUTS)

    Also false, I believe you're just trying to throw shade. But hey, I'll agree to disagree with you.

    I mean, yeah he'll complain, don't get me wrong, I think anyone would prefer an elite player to never complain no matter how bad a call is against them. But is it really so much that he's over the top, or is the spotlight just on him way more than anyone else?

    Of all the big time super stars I think he gets the least foul calls. He probably attacks the basket as much as anyone and he has way less calls than Jordan or even harden.
