Please enlighten me on the LJ History, over hyped out of high school, carried the Cavs to one finals to get crapped on, what else do you got
He is not cluth, Wade is cluth. How many points total did James score, screw the 4th quarter, tell me which quarter he showed up in?
The comparisons made by others, media, sports fans, and the like that he is better than Kobe or MJ or on the same level is insane, he isn't and I doubt he ever will be. His ego is far too big for the big bag of nothing he carries with him.....

You're are incorrect, he has gone 0-2 in the finals, that should say something.....

Yes that is what I meant. Just the polarization and craziness of someone's actions being followed so intimately with people.

LeBron has done something MJ never did....... Lost twice in the Finals
He is like cell phone on vibrate. No rings!!!!!!
He should be in the NHL. No 4th period.
He deserves all he gets for "The Decision". What bad judgement to be counting off the titles he will win when he had not even get one. The chemistry is not there with the "Big 3". They need to be split up. That was and still is Wades team.

You could say MJ made him a household name. I get your point though. They were a perfect trio IMO. Granted he a had legit supporting cast too.Remind me what MJ did before Phil Jackson took over as the head coach of the Bulls
Not a pro basketball fan for many reasons including: Players that feel like their decision to go to a team should be nationally televised, players that ignore fundamentals and try to play a professional sport on hardwood like its on concrete behind their aunties house, and for players that would rather play a 1 on 1 game then a real game...I do enjoy supporting my local highschool and college team, but the NBA and many other pro sports put out such a negative message of instant riches and self-admiration, giving false hope to many younger kids that should be focused on their education and working. I was a 2 sport athlete in college and it was ridiculous to me the amount of my teammates that could care less about their education or grades because they were going to the "league". Now nearly everyone of them is struggling to either finish their degree or find a job with basket-weaving degree. I feel that players like lebron could do so much more for the human race besides basking in his nicknames and false achievements. Just a thought

True, D Wade had Shaq. That's what is missin on The Heat team. Well, that & a coach who people can name off hand.Wade won a ring before James.
James is more Pippen than MJ.
He's more Michael than Pippen, but he doesn't fit either mold. He is very unique.

Bosch is suppose to impress anybody?
So he didn't win a NBA Finals. LJ was Cleveland. I mean that was an atrocious supporting cast @ best & he willed those scrubs as far as he could take them.
Let's just wait for next year. I think Miami will prove unbeatable. Just a hunch.

Next year? That's what he said last year. And I believe he has a long way to go to even be mentioned in the same conversation as Micheal Jordan. I think MJ won six rings, and with different supporting casts too.
Micheal Jordan is the best basketball player ever, PERIOD.
There will always be that "next Micheal Jordan", like Kobie Bryant, Lebron James, and even D Wade at one time. Being compared to the man aint being the man.
