Lebron feels like he is above criticism - rips reporter last night during press conference

That is the impression that I have gotten from him over the years. I will acknowledge that he almost certainly has been the most scrutinized American athlete ever and that not all of it is fair. Still I think he brings a good bit of it on himself.

Last night, reporter Kenny Roda asked him a question on what caused him to have a bad game 3. Lebron answered but then told the reporter that he only came around when the Cavs lost (not true). When I read about this, I thought it might have been someone like Gregg Doyel stirring the pot, but when I watched the video it seemed like a legit question, not out of line at all.

From Roda:

Some people will hate Lebron no matter what. Some will blindly defend him and make excuses for him. I really think it's stuff like this that irks the unbiased fans. I am not saying he's never been gracious after a loss - he has...but for being a high level athlete he seems to have very thin skin.
