I don't hate him dude. shite, check my posts from last night. I was defending him. I just think this is where he loses people. He does seem like he's above any criticism at times.

Considering he is such a gigantic star he has always been about as gracious as they come.
You realize he used to constantly get criticized for making the correct basketball play at the end of games because he didn't selfishly try to shoot it every time.

If this is where he loses people, those people are ridiculous. He might think he's above criticism. I think it has to do more with the criticism of him being astronomically disproportionate to his weaknesses.
He's competing against 1 player who has been retired for a long time. That player skates on literally everything that he's done on and off the court that could be seen as not ideal. That's probably pretty frustrating to Lebron

Does anyone realize how hard it is to be a black male w a small wiener? Live in his shoes for one day!

All great players have done this to be fair.
A.I. used to walk out all the time. Bird's walked away.
Magic probably never did.
But no player who is way better at his profession than the guy asking questions is at his profession wants to hear:
"So why did you suck arse tonight?"

The whole cult of hero worship will be the downfall of the NBA. It seems the team he plays for and his teammates are incidental.

You ever hear what his teammates and more importantly former teammates have to say about LeBron?

It was so obvious that the reporter took to Twitter to defend himself afterwards. Did you even click the link? You really think he's joking? you are dumb as hell if so.

I am not a Lebron fan at all but I have no issue with how he handled the press conference. It is hard to come in after a loss where you didn't play well and answered these questions with a good attitude. I couldn't do that, I would be much more testy with the media. He really wasn't bad with the reporter. He owned up to not playing well.

hmm... i wonder why he would do that? surely it wouldn't be to extract something out of nothing to make it a bigger deal than what it should be and have the media and everyone else talking about kenny who the hell knows his last name from bumfrick, Ohio. Of course he's not trying to shine the spotlight on himself....
but I'm a dummy, so what do i know?

This dude was half retarded. Overly ghetto as hell. Angry. Just all around not someone who you'd want to spend your day with.
The SECOND I started picking his brain about Lebron he turned into this giddy fan. Basically said that Lebron is so in control of what happens on the court that he creates structure for guys to mask what they're not good at.
I wouldn't go as far as saying he thought Lebron made his career. And Lebron didn't. But goddamnit he was adamant about how much easier Lebron made it for him when they played together.

Unless you think your observation skills are soooooo good that you can see from afar that he doesn't play for his teammates, but his teammates who have infinitely more access than you do don't seem to think that.
Not sure which it is, either way, your theory is certainly not really able to be defended by anything of note.

Well he does have a high school diploma, that was probably just given to him, so he is very intelligent and is above criticism.

Because that is Pop's peronality. He doesn't give a shite what anyone outside of his circle or organization think of him.
Lebron wants to play both sides of the fence. He wants and longs to be universally liked and adored. The second someone questions that, or he has a bad game and someone calls him on it, he turns full bitch.
