I have no opinion on the perceived value of anything LBJ sez but happily note that when he speaks, several million people hear it. When 99 speaks, about 32 guys at the Rxforum website hear him


Nor do I when it comes to any athlete.
I will say LBJ has taken every cheap shot any up and coming starter in the league has cared to dish out, night after night for years.
He's tough. I respect him for that alone.

As far as the daily post about someone who sucks in willies eyes... genetics no doubt.

I wasn't directing that towards you. Just the irony of people who will try to diminish a person who "chases a ball" yet then start threads over guys with red hats that have youtube channels or someone who gets hit in the head for a living as people that needed to be listened too.

Some just need to be honest and say, the only thing you're basing intelligence off of, is if he/she agrees with you politically. It's no more complicated than that...


Well stated.

At the end of it all, when he speaks, you can tell he only has a HS education. He's just uninformed about what's going on in the world which is fine.

I hate Lebron and don't listen to him but why do you need more than a HS education to be informed? They don't teach you anything that valuable in college.

Lebron is killing the popularity of the NBA in the USA. Of course the NBA is blowing China so they don't really care about the USA and let's forget the human rights bullshit campaign here because the flagrant violators are in China. He is the biggest hypocrite and he is a big part of the reason that I turned out the NBA several years ago.

It’s not fine. If he opens his mouth on important social issues, then he’s responsible for what comes out. Maybe he should become more informed. That’s on him.

Excepted.. not that it's needed but thank you.

Accepted. Your illiteracy is showing again.

But you nailed "genetics" earlier, so we're seeing improvement.

You're working up to a Participation Award too.

I don’t think people’s hate for Lebron is political .

He hasn’t been very political at all until about 5 years ago and people hated him since he has been in the league .

He use to keep his political stances very low key from what I remember .

Pretty much having the same republicans buy shoes to stance of MJ
This just gives people who already hated him more ammo to justify their hate .

It didn't used to be. It is now.

I'm not a fan. Not a fan at all. But don't hate the guy.

He's not important enough to me to have those types of strong feelings.

I disliked the POS since he blamed all the anger from "the decision" on racism. I knew then he was a worthless POS inciting racism in an extremely ignorant manner

Listening to him talk now only reinforces my opinion that he's a misguided ignorant racist

I respect the fact that he's an involved father. That's the message he needs to spread

The only thing i dislike about Lebron James is how whatever is current has to also be the best. This isn't even his fault but sports media. Jordan was the best and also had the best career, it's still not really all that close.

Jordan
6x champion
6x finals mvp
5x MVP
10x scoring champ
9x defense 1st team
3x steals leader

Lebron
4x champion
4x finals mvp
4x MVP
1x scoring champ
5x defense 1st team
1x assist leader

Outside of leading the league in assists(some jordan never did) Lebron pales in comparison to Jordan in all other categories and has already played more seasons then Jordan did. Reminds me of when Dirk won his one and only championship and then all of a sudden he was better than Bird after that season.

People get to be such prisoners of the moment.

The irony of this is also how people will say Lebron played better teams in the finals than Jordan than also try to make out that making the finals 10x is a great achievement. It is, but one should also point out how easy the east was because all the good teams were in the west and that was the exact reason why winning a championship was so difficult. You can't have it both ways. If the talent was more evenly spread a lot of those Lebron lead teams don't even make the finals to get thumped.

Does anyone here watch his HBO show "The Shop"

Pretty good they Lebron and friends talk about "issues" going on. Interesting perspective.

Of course they always have that 1 token white guy comedian

I'm pretty sure he was taking a shot at Kyrie Irving when he said "17 years I've never missed a playoff game, best thing you can do to help your teammates in the playoffs is be available..."

So atleast that was pretty cool. Good dig.


​ Not for nothing, but Lebronsky did Bang kyries girlfriend,,, that is a Huge part of the Lebron Kyrie meltdown in their relationship,
