I already said of why I don't like him and that has nothing to do with basketball directly, therefore, basketball success does not change my opinion of him. If you read my pervious posts, you would have seen that I don't like him because I think he is a terrible decision maker and a bad example of what a good athlete and sportsman should be. He is blessed with great talent, but does not have discipline and maturity a 27 years old athelete should have.

It works both ways bud, hating on a nba player you never really met and only know his personality through tv is the same thing....

Yes but he puts himself out for the world to judge him, there is a reason other NBA greats, fans, media call him out for his actions. That's the nature of Professional sports, the athelets don't have much of a personal life and we as fans get to know what they are all about. He has a poor track record of decision making and as a result everything he does gets put under magnifying glass

At the end of the day man hes a great player, if you are a true nba fan, then you will put that aside and respect the man for his talents. I dont think you should let personal traits of a player overshadow his talents.

For example, Michael Jackson, love his music, even though people criticized him for a being a child molester or whatever I didn't let that infleunce my judgement on his musical talents, just becasue he was a child molester it did not make me see him as a bad musician. Similary, just becasue Lebron is cocky, a bad decsion maker or w.e. it shouldn't lead you away from the reason why he is great....because of his basketball skills. I hope you understand..

When his deficiencies are pointed and you don't agree with it the people are haters. I just don't like him period because all his POOR decisions and attitude against other players.
