    You're right, you didn't say you would root against him but I still don't understand what you think Lebron has done to make you say he is buying into the hype. What do you expect him to do? People follow him around and have been since he was 15.

    Ditto.

    It's funny how much hatred/jealousy some people have for an 18 year old KID.

    Ease up guys and worry about yourself rather than hating athletes you have never met.

    Some teams have to win, some teams have to lose, some players have to win, some players have to lose. What is wrong with routing for the Cavs and Lebron to lose, they are not Rockets are they?

    I will say obession or blinded hating isn't productive and is unfortunate, but everyone has those teams and players they route for and others they route against be in geography, emotional ties, past history w/rivals etc. I see nothing wrong with people hoping Lebron doesn't meet expectations as long as they don't hope he breaks a leg or something--it isn't like he and his family will not be financially set as long as they don't have completely incompetent planning/advise.

    Geez If you want someone to hate. Hate Eminem.

    There are plenty of white MC's that blow that punk out of the water. I just wish people knew about them because Eminem isnt that good.

    Affirmative! Well maybe not....but Anthony has barely gotten any media attention compared to Mr. Lebron King James........watch him do very well!
