We're hounding him more than any athlete I've ever seen, and I think we'd all be surprised to see him retire with fewer than two rings.

We actually view him as good enough to win multiple titles, and most people seem to really enjoy bashing a guy we already have pre-crowned a multi-champion.

I've never seen anything like this.

Two-part question for anyone ripping James:
A) how many titles will he win?
B) if more than one, why are you ripping him?

The issue is not about how good he is, but how he handles himself.

No question he is an amazing athlete. but he does not have that something extra that an elite player needs to carry a team.

Are you president of his fan club or what? The only thing James has done is switch to a stacked team that fricking LOST.

I like what Jordan said about him: "I didn't want to join a team with Larry Bird and Majic Johnson and go beat up the rest of the league. I wanted to play AGAINST the best players".

That's a man. Lebron is still a boy.

Pretty much the antics that he's been known to pull.

I didn't mind the decision. The money went to charity. Who cares.

But the show the Heat put on for them.....the lack of killer instinct he's now known to have....or not have.....

His narcissistic attitude.

Before last night, I didn't mind him and hated the constant crying about him. I kinda figured it was the fallout from his televised decision. That didn't bother me....

But the media is starting to piss me off with subject. Labeling him as the best ever....

The comparison's with MJ. It's ridiculous. Like it was said today, he's closer to being Scottie Pippen than he is being Michael Jordan.

A-Rod is close. He was hounded pretty badly, especially in 2009. And when he finally won a WS, people shut up. But with LeBron, he can win 5+ titles, and people will never shut up about him.

And people said A-Rod would never win a WS.

Easy to say when MJ was in a market like Chicago and Bird/Magic were in great markets/all time great teams, and not in Cleveland.

D-Wade, Lebron and Bosh could play with any 9 scrubs and should win it all. If Lebron had had the heart to do it... they'd have won.
