no
B.S. to the logarthmic degree - what a farce unless you a Heat Fan or a bandwagoner.

In the West, the probable survivors will be either the Spurs or Thunder, with the Lakers having an outside chance. When they're at their best, the Heat can outlast any of those teams in a best-of-seven series.
That sound you hear, the murmur of voices rising in intensity in a raucous display of affirmation? Those are fans across the land cheering for LeBron James to win his first-ever NBA championship. Indeed, it's probably a sound that you couldn't imagine hearing a year ago.
But now? You want him to succeed. Admit it.
no
Not this year.
When he comes to San Antonio to retire, I hope he wins one or two.
Wouldn't say "I want" him to win the le, but I won't be rooting against him like last year. Barring injury he's got his first ring in the bag, especially since his 2 likely Finals opponents (OKC, SAS) are finesse.
I'm indifferent if LeBron wins the le this year; but I'm not going to lie, I'm going to have a laugh if he doesn't.
And btw was that HarlemHeat37 writing that article?
I didn't want Lebron to win the le even when he was a one man band in Cleveland. Dude is talented, to be sure, but the sense of en lement he came into the league with, and has only carried through, just drives me nuts.
Now that he's got his little SuperFriend buddies with him, make that a LLL NO.
I'm rooting for him. Not his biggest fan, but I like LeBron.
Dex, you are a great American.![]()
I've rooted against him since he shouldered Spoelstra. The sense of en lement and lack of humility makes him an easy person to hate all around. The only thing I respect about him is that he's the most physically talented specimen to ever play the game.
Anybody that respects philanthropy, teamwork and unselfishness should be cheering for Lebron..anybody that openly hates on him is essentially admitting that they do not value any of the characteristics I named, tbh..
There's nothing about genetics that earns respect. It's at ude and hard work and how he treats others, that's how respect is earned. Who gives a if he's a physical specimen? Awe inspiring, sure, but not deserving of respect.
Like Cash says, when the man comes around... When James comes around, he will hopefully become respectful.
I don't respect Lebron, but it has nothing to do with his rings. It has more to do with his life. His mom dealt with a lot of , she should be commended. He's been coddled since he was in middle school, as everyone knew he was a sports prodigy. Anyone who has "chosen one" tattooed on their back isn't a man that has humility.
If the Spurs and Heat make the Finals, and San Antonio wins, will people start talking about how LeBron can't beat a Texas team for the championship?
No. They will say he cannot beat anyone for a championship if they lose because he defers or chokes. He will be once again the regular season hero next year though.
Lebron is one of the few superstars in NBA history that has always supported his teammates and coaches, and has never thrown any of them under the bus..
Jordan, Kareem, Wilt, Magic, Shaq, Kobe, Barkley, Pippen and most stars have thrown teammates under the bus, and ed with their organization..
How does that not earn respect, tbh?..
Then he's a product of the media hyping him up. He's not the only one at fault.
Lebron will probably be worth nearly a billion $, at some point in the future IMO..
That's quite impressive for a Black kid that was raised without a legit mother or father in his life, and without a proper education..
He has never had an off-court incident to speak of..he's one of the few athletes that has correctly handled the spousal aspect of fame..
Outside of Tim Duncan, there isn't a star that merits as much respect as King, tbh..
Can't respect someone that tattooed Chosen 1 on his back
He also doesn't have acne...
He'd be easier to root for if he didn't spend so much time acting like a got.
I just can't see how he can still be so hated, especially after last year. Last year's Finals were cathartic for every LeBron hater I know (except some people on this forum). I wanted to see LeBron epically fail on the big stage despite having great teammates--and he did. After that awesome spectacle i've got no more hate left for the man.
