    I voted the indifferent option. If there was a liked him before, support his decision option I would have chose that one. I've never loved LeBron but I enjoy watching him play.

    It's weird I feel the same about Wade and Bosh.


    Though, I am not a big fan of Kobe.

    I don't hate anyone associated with Lebron, he's not on the Rockets, plain and simple.

    The only one who I could remotely have malice towards is Worldwide Wes, for reining a great deal of the corruption that occurs in college basketball recruiting into one great big contraband outfit. I'm not saying that it wasn't corrupt before, but now it's like a fine-tuned machine with Wes at the driver's seat.

    We all know he has talent, but his ego just ruins it. He is all about making a name for himself, no loyalty or pride. He and the media have given him th

    I dont hate him personally. My dislike is the overwhelming amount of hype he's got since he came out of highschool. The media seemed to make him the "next" Jordan before he played a NBA game. He's also seemed to buy into that hype which is premature being he hasnt won a damn thing. The media, fans & commentators overrate this dude when he wins, then place blame elsewhere when he fails. He's a great talent, exciting to watch, but he's still the most overrated player in sports history at this point in his career. How can you make a player the "next" Jordan when he's not even Kobe yet? How can a player have a "legacy" with absolutley no championship rings? The guy's a injury away from being Tmac.....

    The name "king" or "chosen 1". He decides to leave his hometown, where he was the one and only man, to being a sidekick for Wade. That says he is scared he can't live up to the hype, coward, and douche for the 1 hour special.

    You'll never really know what happened behind closed doors. Sure that holding such an extravagant event like the 1-hour special wasn't the classiest thing to do, but I think that the Cavs owner hasn't been the greatest about things either. I think that what I'm dubbing "the breakup" was just a bad situation all-around. The kid has amazing talent. Yes, he's a bit of a jerk but I don't hate him. He's not my favorite person, but I'm surely not going to hate someone for leaving a basketball team.

    indifferent now, indifferent then

    dont know why so many people are hurt that they have to continue making post on him

    he wants to win a ring and have the best chance at it and quite frankly he chose one of them.

    funny thing is if he woulda came here with another superstar it would have been the other way around, and you guys woulda been all over his nuts while other fans hated us

    I agree that Bandwagon Hate is somewhat biased. I hated him the second he announced where he was going. I told myself that I would be pissed if he was doing all this to announce that he was going anywhere BUT Cleveland.

    Very classless imho. You don't do that to a city, even if it is Cleveland. And it ain't about Cleveland. Even if Kobe did it to the Lakers or DWIlliams did it to the j*zz, I would LMAO but I would think it was wrong. (Well, maybe not the j*zz so much) But Cleveland fans from my experience didn't deserve this. Mean people suck, and LBJ is a mean person.

    For every 5 steps LerBon takes per 1 dribble, God saves a kitten.

    The best human being on the planet.

    I never much cared for LeBron. He is an all world talent, but I always thought he was an egotistical prima donna who couldn't take his team to the top. You can blame his supporting cast, but LeBron came up short in a number of big playoff games. I really hated the pre-game antics, the scowling after dunks, his entourage, and immature posing at all points of the game (including ripping of KG's powder clap). For all his physical talents, it's funny that he can't focus more than 30 minutes in team meetings without losing attention. I'm pretty happy that he didn't win a title up until this point.

    Now, I kind of have him on par with Kobe and the Jazz. If he meets either of those entities, I can't bring myself to root against either team more. I want them both to lose. Maybe the earth opening up to swallow the basketball court. I just hope it's not Lakers-Heat in the finals. I already had to tune out of 2 of the last 3 finals with Lakers-Celtics.

    I still think he has no clue how he has turned into one of the arch villains of the NBA. Damn, he is going to be in for a shock in his first game back in Cleveland. It'll probably be a shock when he's booed heartily in a lot of cities for the first time, but I think the first one in Cleveland will finally make him realize he's public enemy number one in his home state of Ohio.

    I actually used to like him quite a bit. Nowadays, doesn't seem like he has much drive other than marketing himself.

    I have no issues with LeBron. He does seem to be driven by his ego and that can be irritating. However:

    - He was hyped like no other and still became arguably the best player in basketball.
    - He seems to take care of his kids.
    - He hasn't been in any trouble with the law.
    - There are no reports of him taking any drugs, breaking any laws, beating on his woman, etc.
    - He never tried to get out of his contractual committment with Cleveland.
    - He seems to get along well with his teammates.
    - I have yet to hear him throw one teammate under the bus.
    - I have yet to hear him really criticize management even though the best they could do in 7 years was Mo Williams.
    - I have yet to hear him criticize his coach publicly even though it's apparent he's an idiot.
    - I don't see him pull cheap shot moves like elbowing dudes when they are on the ground.
    - He doesn't seem like a dirty player.
    - He took less money for a chance to win.
    - He seems to be willing to share the spotlight or take a backseat for a chance to win.

    I have no issues with LeBron.
