start with West. Not just as a player of course but building 80s dynasty.
Bill Sharman built the Showtime/ 80's Lakers & unlike most fans Jeannie is aware of this.

Magic AND Bird have been way more of difference makers in NBA history than Bron... it’s not even close.

So despite spending half his life with the Lakers, Mr. Clutch, the fricking Logo, had nothing to do with the Lakers fame?

What was he doing as a GM from 1982 to the Phil 3-pests?

Twiddling his thumbs?

Mostly an underling to Bill Sharman until 1989 . Sharman signed Jamaal Wilkes, Bob McAdoo, drafted Michael Cooper , Norm Nixon, Rambis, traded Goodrich for the pick that became Magic( West liked Moncrief better) , the pick that became Worthy, etc..... Sharman is criminally disrespected by fans and media.

The Lakers had already won 2 Rings by 82/83 & Sharman was still the player exec until 1989.

She also said that LeBron was as close to a "superhero" that she knows. No doubt she is considering his entire career in the NBA with that thought in mind. LeBron has had the biggest impact on the NBA of any single player I can think of. Unlike Jordan, who was so loyal to the man he couldn't get out a public opinion about the sun coming up, LeBron has always had the courage to express his feelings on a matter. And courage is often what it takes to be the minority and be heard from. On the court, he has been that "superhero" since he came into the league. All the expectations in the world when he was the #1 pick at 18, but he was still a man among boys from his first season on. He is the rarest of combination of generational talent meets ridiculously high IQ to see and manipulate it all is a once in a lifetime package. Even now at 36, he is automatically the best player in the league every time he steps on the court. Amazing player, amazing person!


Damn, dude, you inhaled LeBron's entire pole and tongued his balls at the same time.

LeBron has never taken a stand on anything that wasn't already safe take. He's never been out front on anything.

I'd rather allow stats and the eye test to tell the story. As opposed to countless generations of southern emotional predispositions toward prejudice. Remember kids, the heart is stronger than the mind. Emotions will always run stronger than logic and the truth becomes impossible.

Drug-ridden bimbo who hit the genetic lottery of a rich daddy who happened to hold a great franchise in a location most players find fantastic. Otherwise, there’s no way that team would ever attract and retain quality players.

What's southern prejudice have to do with anything I posted? I'm a Canadian-born New York raised Yankee. Stop writing drivel and stop fellating LeBron. An amazing person?

Prejudice doesn't have a border. It's been well documented most any place you chose to travel. But nothing changes the heartbeat of the Rant beyond what was said. Nothing.

Lebron could absolutely take this advice to heart, seeing as all of his recent social stances you so adore him for are emotional based and not based in fact.

Then why call out southern prejudice as opposed to the segregation and discrimination so ever popular in the NE, Midwest, and west coast?

You should've just led with this. At least now everyone knows you’re not to be taken seriously.

Lebron has the emotional maturity of a 16 year old girl so she basically had to list him
