Some of you care way too much about a high school educated athlete you’ve never even met. Kinda pathetic really.

FWIW, since Lebron left Miami, he has 2 titles and they have none.
These clowns are delusional. Pat Riley has 1 championship without Lebron in the past 34/35 years.

Usually I don't give two shits about a high school educated athlete who can hardly read and his ignorant takes. But it's a problem for our society when someone who disseminates racism, division,
ignorance and hypocrisy carries so much weight with people. Especially young people.

He is a sellout, a racist and a fraud. I don't care that he is ignorant. None of us knows everything. But what I can't stand is when an ignorant person gets on their soap box on something they aren't informed on. Or lectures people on moral issues when he benefits financially from doing business with a country with currently the worst human rights record on the planet.

I have 3 young kids who are all huge NBA fans and pay attention when LeBron speaks. I tell them that he is of course free to speak his mind, but that doesn't absolve him of criticism from people who disagree. Free speech goes both ways.

That is why I care. You have your opinion. I have mine.

Do you have random internet rants for all the bad people your kids see on tv?

This thread is about LeBron.

And yes, there are other people I tell my kids not to automatically assume are full of good wisdom just because they're a great athlete, musician or actor.

I expect to be held accountable for my actions and what comes out of my mouth. Same should go for everyone.

I love how the Bronsexuals come out and try to be dismissive of criticism toward their guy, then claim they are not Bronsexuals and are just pointing out how weird it is to hold an adult accountable for his words and have a strong opinion.

I hope you have nothing in your home “Made in China”…

But yeah about the topic of this thread, if Lebron had never left Miami, he wouldn’t have the Cleveland championship which is the cornerstone of his legacy… his legacy would be forever taking his talents to South Beach

You say that, but going back to Cleveland and bringing that city it’s first sports championship in 50+ years against the 73-win Warriors is his greatest achievement imo.

I'm sure I do. The difference is I'm not lining my pockets with billions in part from slave labor while at the same time bitching about slavery that ended over 100 years ago in my own country. A country who's system has allowed my black arse to become wealthy beyond my wildest dreams and into the .0001% of all humans that have ever lived on earth. Bronsexuals try to use that argument all the time, but it doesn't hold water with me.

As far as the topic of this thread, the championship in Cleveland did more for his legacy than any other championship in Miami or LA. But I also think he would be better off basketball wise had he stayed in Miami with an organization that has a much better vision on how to build a winning basketball team than the Cavs or Lakers. But he also would have had to leave Riley alone to do his job and surround him with the right pieces. That wasn't happening because LeBron thinks he's the smartest and most informed person in the room.

He would have never stayed in Miami because Pat Riley wouldn’t let LeBron strong arm him into bringing in whatever coach and players he wanted, regardless of whether they actually fit with the team. Cleveland and the Lakers were more than happy to do that.

Pretty sure every NBA city is a DNC city, genius.

Salt Lake City might be the only exception.

I guarantee that you know more about Lebron’s political/social stances than your kids, and even most NBA/Lebron fans. Think about that.

His reading ability, if he has any, has NOTHING to do with his net worth.
