It is remarkable that he hasn't had any sort of significant injury. He is all over the court and flying high every night. That pounding is bound to cause some issues at some point.

As much as I've rooted against LeBron, he is pretty [dang] impressive and worthy of respect.

Yeah... I really hate him coz he's THAT good

I hate him because:

1. He took the easy way out to get a championship :(

2. The way he left Cleveland

3. His facial expressions

4. The way the refs never see him foul

5. His cowardliness when dealing with the slam dunk contest...
You really can't fault him for going to Miami though. If there's an opportunity to win championships you take it. The way he handled his departure is another story though. ::)

Sure I can. If Pat Riley would have truly acquired these players, via legit trades, I would have no problem with it. But the way Lebron and Bosh all got together and landed in Miami sickens me.

Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I really only blame him for (2) and (3). And, half of (1).

I don't blame him for leaving Cleveland - he gave them seven years to put a good supporting team around him and it was a disaster. I do blame him for choosing the Heat, it was kind of a cop-out.

I don't like his expressions either.

Can't blame him for (4) - he doesn't make the calls. And most other superstars have been treated similarly.

And his approach on (5) makes sense too. This dunk contest is a circus show. We don't get mad at Tom Brady for skipping the Pro Bowl, right?

None of the media cared that in the 2010 Finals, KG was still hobbled by his knee injury and Perk went down in FREAKIN game 6 of the NBA Finals... So I wouldn't care for Lebron

He's ok. But I won't ever respect him as much as I respect Durant, unless he finds a way to stop global warming or something.
