Maybe. But his constant whining about needing other players, team jumping, coach killing and espn sucking his basketballs every damn radio show all day makes him unlikeable..

Let me preface this by saying I don’t believe he is better than Jordan. But it’s close and had he built a legacy and retired having played his entire career with the Cavs and won 3-4 championships you could very easily make the case he’s number one

I was watching game 2 of their first finals a couple of days ago and man, it's crazy to think what would have happened if they didn't blow that game. They were up 1-0 and up huge in the 4th quarter and completely collapsed. They didn't win another game.

Mr Gilbert and Mr Altman trolling everyone for the second straight year is hilarious to watch.

I promise you the Cavs aren’t the least bit interested in trading three core rotation players (Allen, Garland, Strus) for 41 y/o LeBron and his ~$53 million contract lmao

Right, but LeBron had to go to a mega team to win his 1st title. The Bulls built around Jordan and he made people better, he didn't go join Detroit and bring Karl Malone with him to do what he did.

Crazy how this made for TV bullshite event had major ramifications across the league. I tuned in…I remember the night well, and the cutaways to the Cleveland fans.

He goes to the Heat, wins 2/4 titles but it’s bookended by arse whoopings at the hands of Dallas and San Antonio. That Spurs team, even though they lost G2, absolutely trucked Miami in that series. I was in the arena when the AC went out and Lebron cramped up as Miami folded down the stretch. Game 5 was such a blowout, it was basically a giant party in the stands for the 4th quarter.

He adds to his legacy more than ever with the Cleveland title. I’d venture to say his LA tenure is sort of forgettable, even with the bubble title, with the exception of him compiling good numbers.

I was never really a Bron Bron fan but I was pretty ambivalent toward him prior to this, are pretty neutral if you will....but from that point forward not very much of what I saw and heard from and about Bron Bron has done anything to make me perceive him any other way but in an unfavorable light.

The worst part to me is the number of college recruits who try to emulate the
announcement

“I’m taking my talents to the “University of LSU”

When it comes to the state of Ohio, I always tell people, "Ohio's so awful, Lebron left it TWICE!"
