Personally, I never minded Lebron until that hour long decision program. I rooted for a boycott after that.

I agree.  I never disliked him before, but now I can't stand him.  I want to crush Miami.

That hour long show was such a sham. He could have had a five minute press conference and done all the apologizing to a local Cleveland radio station and thanking the fans of Cleveland for six memorable seasons.

Honestly, I chose not to watch ESPN but chat with the Celtic Blog chatters on how stupid this charade was.

I think we will beat Miami if Orlando or Chicago doesn't knock them out 1st.
The beatings will continue until morale improves

The top five disliked sports personalities, according to The Q Scores Co. (the demographic among those polled was not mentioned): Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick; golfer Tiger Woods; Cincinnati Bengals receivers Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco; and Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant.

LeBron behind Kobe, as usual.

  How realistic is your game? Does it show Wade and Bosh fuming while LeBron holds press conferences to blame their lack of success on the fact that he doesn't get enough help from his teammates?
