Keep thinking Lebron James is gonna suck your dick because you worship him on a message board.

Keep proving my point that his only knock is being a cringe lord on Twitter

Keep proving my point that you thought it was okay and he still hasn't apologized for it.

Yeah the fake racist graffiti killed it for me in regards to LeBron being an outstanding citizen. He is not quite Jussie Smollet, but he is pretty close.

Also, he’s passed on too many game winners for my liking.

Should I take it? Nah, there’s Danny Green over there, I’ll just pass it to him.

Honestly disappointed no one dropped the ‘he wants nothing to do with white people’ clip. Think that’s the only thing we’re missing here.

Jebron Lames is overrated. Certainly the greatest of all time wouldn’t ring chase would he?

Jordan and Bryant will always be better.

Kobe sort of did when he refused to play for the Hornets as a rookie (everyone knew by then that Shaq was going to the Lakers that summer).

The Lakers told the Hornets to draft him. They had it all worked out.

Steph Curry is a better story imo. None of the blue bloods wanted him, so he went to lowly Davidson and was the baby faced kid that took Davidson to the Elite 8 and took eventual champ Kansas to the final possession. He got snubbed in the draft and had some injury setbacks on the Warriors but eventually turned into the guy that changed the entire strategy of the league single handedly

I understand that he’s also a prolific reader.

I don't know, maybe it's just me, but Ben Hogan coming back from a near fatal car crash and winning six majors is a little more impressive (including three in one year). He won the US Open a little more than one year after the crash.

As far as meeting and surpassing expectations, I would submit Tiger Woods. He was on national television as a two year old. A two year old. And let's face it, a huge component of Tiger's appeal is that he is a black man excelling in what previously was seen as a white man's sport. He's broken ground and been a flag bearer in a way that LeBron has never had to deal with.

Lebron hit the genetic lottery like no one we have ever seen.

That's because Shaq came to LA and won his first 3 for him.

Kobe is not in the same stratosphere as LeBron.

Lebron was stronger than almost everyone else but Kobe was a better pure basketball player.

Kobe is one of the most overrated players ever. He made mean scowls and people remember that, but his "clutch" play that everyone seems to love him for was low key pretty terrible. His "clutch" stats are bad.
