It's actually spot on if you ask me. The Game 4 issue where he and Kyrie were padding stats instead of actually trying to win the game was ridiculous. And I'm still convinced that there will be a major asterisk to this Finals win if they pull it out due to Lebron's antics about Draymond Green and essentially using his star power to get him suspended.

Also, this is pretty surprising to see from Bucher. Yes, he's a major Warriors guy, but he's also been a very big pro-Lebron guy in the past, too.

If the victim had been anybody but LeBron ......Green does not get suspended .

NBA had to step in, LeBron knew if he played his cards right he d get the help he needed.

Pretty much a joke .

 It wasn't that bad. When everyone was just repeating Lebron is better than Larry Legend that started to irk me. He never can touch Bird at this point stats be darned.

Sour grapes. Lebron is the best player in the NBA, insufferable ego or not.

I don't think he really denies this, though, only that he's not one of the all-time greats.

And after listening to Lebron during this series talk about winning not being the "only" thing or the "most important" thing (however he said it), I can't say that I disagree with him. Hell, in tonight's post-game interview he said something to the effect of he'd be satisfied either way after game 7, though he'd prefer to win.

Who says that in that position? Can you imagine Bird or Jordan saying something like that? Part of what made them so great is that they were the most competitive players on the floor, and you'd never hear those types of words coming out of their mouths.

Something is going on - like he's prepping people just in case they lose game 7. Perhaps he's learned a thing or two after his Miami debacle - not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5... okay just 2 lol

If he wins the finals he is.

Agreed. He's still the best.

Gross. I'd rather root for the guy who isn't so arrogant that it makes my eyes bleed. A little humbleness is good for the game, which is why Curry is so much better for the game than Lebron.

Lebron is one of the all time greats though.  Anyone who takes a position contrary to that can just be disregarded entirely.

Curry isn't humble at all.  Dude has a gigantic ego.  Was glad to see him turn into a bit of a heal at the end of the game.  Much more in line with his true character.

Curry certainly is not humble, but no star athlete really is. Calling him a "heel" is just nonsense. People who claim this should be disregarded as biased fools.

Fact is, LeBron is the biggest d bag in the game right now.
