So when I watch him play, I hope that he never gets a ring...we all have our opinions. I know mine in this area doesn't make much sense. But its still my opinion and its prolly never gonna change.

Atleast you admit your a basher!
But if it makes any of the clevland fans sleep any easier at night, Lebron already changed his jersey # to 6, last All-Star game in fact. And hes sticking with it for this season:

Its not about being like MJ, its about upholding his loyalty towards clevaland fans, the same fans he promised he would get a finals win. No doubt James has the skills to be potentially compared to one of the greats, but clevland fans felt disrepected that he promised them pizza and never delivered, the whole jersey # and being like MJ was all marketing/mumbo jumbo. He even admitted that he wanted to change the number for that reason, also to pay tribute to a living legend.
