My reason for disliking him is based on how he has handled himself.

I understand that to a degree, you cannot control the media hype/swirl around you, so I do not hold that against him, although he played a part in it.

The first thing that really started to rub me the wrong way was when DH was in the dunk contest, and he acted like a jilted lover. He announced that he was going to enter the dunk contest and do it on a 13' foot goal, etc, etc, only to back off of his "commitment" the following year.

The next incident was when KD won his first scoring title I believe, and Lebron put out a comment about how he could win it every year if he wanted to, but he was more worried about his team's success. Why did he fell the need to say anything? Jealousy and acting like a women.

Also the whole taking shots at Stephon M's shoes, even though the man was only marketing an affordable shoe to lower class kids, and even though Nike is notorious for their sweat shops and overpriced products.

Of course "The Decision" didn't help.

There many incidents like this that turned me off of him. He seems like he always wants the attention on him, but only when its good, he doesn't want the bad attention, just the good attention.

JMHO

Not saying I disagree with any of this, because these can be valid points, but who are some great players that you do like? I would assume you dont like Jordan or Kobe either, but you would like players like Durant/Shaq

In his defense, who wants bad attention?

Freaking this.

The drugs, the partying, the random women. All he does is think about himself.

LeBron will get a triple-double and then commit a double felony.

I'm tired of the organizations and Stern sticking up for him and covering his dirty tracks.
