    Because I rather see guys like DHoward or KDurant wins it.

    All this non-stop hypin/talkin on ESPN and every damn sports show about Lebron gets pretty damn annoying.

    Instead of talking about "underdog" Boston is all about Lebron this and Lebron that.

    most of the hate seems to stem from the media than lebron himself.

    always "i hate lebron because __________ hypes him up" or "_________ crowns him king even ho he hasn't won a ring yet"

    Lebron fans compare him to Jordan but somehow throw a temper tantrum when you compare Kobe to Jordan. Which is actually a closer comparison. Go figure :rolleyes:

    Which LeBron fan argued that LeBron has had a better career than Michael Jordan or will have had a better career than Michael Jordan simply by winning a few championships?

    That's where a lot of it comes from. Those same people won't reply to you because they know it's true.

    Here's a hint. STOP WATCHING ESPN. Everyone calls it BSPN and trashes it left and right but they must keep watching it to keep talking about it. So change the channel, go online, whatever. There's plenty of ways to keep up on sports.

    You actually tried to argue that Kobe Bryant will have had the greatest career ever if he wins another championship. No one got on your case simply for "comparing" Kobe and Jordan. People compare those two players all the time. Just like people compare LeBron and Jordan. Or Jordan and Wade. But to say, flatly, "Kobe is the greatest player of all time" goes way beyond simply comparing Jordan and Kobe.

    Now, I'll ask again. Which LeBron James fan ever argued that he'd had as good a career as Michael Jordan, or even close to it?

    Be honest and answer the question.

    Stop changing the subject.

    You were referring to everyone pointing out how dumb your thread was. You were referring to people on this message board.

    Or are you saying ESPN was throwing a temper tantrum about comparing Kobe and MJ? Because that's NEVER happened either. :rolleyes:

    I expect your reply will be another topic changer because you won't have a real answer (again).

    Most of the hate comes from all on court shannagans (silly dancing, fake photo ops etc) It Too much clowning. It seems like he's always trying to upstage his opponents. But hates to be upstaged (not shaking hands after last years playoffs, confiscating tapes of getting dunked on by highschool kid) The guy is truly a attention w****

    I shouldnt have to reply to such non sense. Are you saying I'm exaggerating and people dont foolishly compare Lebron to Micheal Jordan??? Because we BOTH know that's a lie. Reference: YOUTUBE, CLUTCHFANS

    Point out a foolish comparison between LeBron and Michael Jordan that is anything like: "If Kobe wins a championship this year, he should be considered the greatest player of all time." That was your thread. If you want to charge that there's a double-standard, you need to actually support that charge with real evidence, not rhetoric.
