After the free agency drama has ended, I have one simple question. Right now are you a fan of the self-titled King?

 

For anyone who cares about my opinion, I don't care for him one bit.

I still don't really like him but I do like him more now than I did before.

My vote isn't on there, it would be "could care less"

Do. Not. Like.

Not a fan.

I read about how many people dislike Lebron after how everything went down even outside of Cleveland. If you didn't care the thread had a pretty clear title on it. Not too difficult to steer clear of it.

I'm amazed at good he is on the court. I get sick of the off the court stuff (and some of the dance moves on the court), but society & the media are just as much to blame for the sideshow as LBJ is. I don't dislike the guy.

 

I'm excited about watching Miami next season & seeing what unfolds. I'm excited to see how 3 players of that caliber mesh together, and whether 3 players is really enough to win a championship. I've also somewhat liked the Heat since Shaq went there, so that's cool (since I don't really have an NBA team).

 

I think a lot of people have been too hard on him, calling him a prima dona while reporting his every move, interview, dinner & thought (I'm looking at you, ESPN). Of course he's egotistical. What person in the world who was a millionaire by age 19 isn't? He's been babied his whole life...and guess what? We're to blame. Now, when he's enjoying his time in the sun, we're upset? Come on.

 

I have no problem with his one hour special announcement. I didn't watch it, but listened to it on the radio (in between innings of the Reds' game.) I think that it's cool that he sold advertising & donated the money to charity. I could not care less if he did it to "look good." All that matters is that some charity is going to get a lot of money towards it cause. Isn't that what really matters? Who cares what LBJ's motivation was...I know I don't. I can't help but laugh when people say that he only gives the money to look good. He's helping a lot of people out financially, so who am I to accuse him of helping people! How dare him!?

 

I hope he signs a 3 year deal that allows him to play with his "Superfriends" in Miami for a while, see what it's like, and leave peacefully if it doesn't work out well. If it fails, he'll only be 28 & will have plenty of time left in the league to "establish himself" as (potentially) one of the best ever, if he so chooses.

Big fan....hated the show so much, I couldn't watch it. At some point I felt we all knew he was going to the Heat. I support that decision. I also understand, and realize that he has sacrifice the ability to be called the best ever, to win titles....time will tell if he gets those. That said, he should've done the right thing and manned up in telling the Cavs his plan.

Same here. I am not a fan but not a hater either.

I agree with everything you said. One thing to add would be Cleveland should have known he wasn't coming back if he never answered a text or phone call from the owner after the season.

 

I used to enjoy his talent, now I'm a huge fan of his. He's s human being and he's being dumped on by seemingly everyone for going to Miami to play ball with his buddies.

I'm not dumping on him for going to Miami. I've always disliked Lebron. I would have rather seen him stay in Cleveland or go to New York and earn a championship rather than win one how he is going to. I just don't think it will mean much when we wins one in Miami.

Ask me in a month. I'm still so mad about the show and his overall arrogance in the last few weeks. I do know that I still hate DWade and Riley, and I hate Bosh more than any of them.

LeBron is must watch television. From a fan of the game standpoint, I enjoy LeBron. He does not have that winner's mentality which would take him to the next level. He may attain that status due to his situation in Miami, but it will be fool's gold, so to speak.

 

In thinking about LeBron, to me he is the Alex Rodriguez of the NBA. Both are full of drama. More talented than anyone in the game. Pressure has a tendency to get to them in big moments. A-Rod, after years of trying was able to pull through when it mattered. I expect the same of James and a lot of people will forget about this a few rings down the road.

I really wanted LeBron and the Cavs to win it all last season before all of this started but now I'm really having mixed feelings towards him.

I dislike him, a ton.
