Well how does the best player in the world get mauled in front of an official and no call? Refs have been horrid both ways

I just barfed. That is why I dislike Lebron. He has been force feed on me for too long.
THey've been speaking of his greatness since he was 17. For me the legend of Lebron will always be found at the cross roads of HGH and Disney Marketing.

Wow, it's been great so far. Who could've seen this coming?
I think Duck Rodgers must've picked the Warriors.

So because his potential was recognized early and he has lived up to it you hate him? I can understand that and I am sure there are a lot of others who feel the same way you do, but I feel the opposite. I don't like everything about him, but he has lived his life under a microscope all the while facing gigantic expectations, and more often than not he has exceeded them. That is very, very, very impressive in my book.

Impressive. I'll bet you are in an extremely small minority to have predicted Cleveland in five after Game 1. I still think you'll be wrong, but it could obviously happen. Amazing!

Despite his shooting performance in the 4th quarter....Curry lost this game, singlehandedly! To quote Rick Barry, "You can't make a good play....then come down the court and make a bad play...and THINK you contributed anything!" Curry makes a good play, then comes down and throws a foolish behind the back pass OUT OF BOUNDS! Curry makes a good play then comes down and foolishly dribbles BEHIND HIS BACK, right into Lebrons hands...another TURNOVER! He totally negated his two good plays with two bad plays, thus accomplishing nothing!

Why is lebron unlikable?
Does he need some DUI's, domestic violence, drug abuse, ped issues etc?
Does he need to stop playing defense and rebounding and getting assists like other superstar players?
Lebron is plenty likeable and a good guy on and off the court.

Just focus on that one play bro and find a way to blame lebron for the refs not making the right call. Seems logical

It's lebrons fault that the media was talking about him at 17 years old.
He should have intentionally played crappier at that age so that the media would not have hyped him up just so some fans would like him more.
Lebron is such a dumbass for playing up to his potential

Not a big LBJ fan just because of the whole narcissistic crap he pulled when he went to Miami. Yeah it isn't his fault the media talked about him at age 17, but that debacle sure as hell was all him. I think he is a great player, no doubt, one of the top 5 or even top 3 or even right there with MJ as best ever, but the way he pulled that **** just rubbed so many people the wrong way. And many cannot or will not get past that, I fully admit me included. It has tainted everything I have seen or heard him do since; right wrong or indifferent that is just the way it is. That is why I find him unlikeable personally, although there is no denying he is right now the best player in the world hands-down. And this championship he truly deserves unlike the ******** superteam in Miami.
lol
I have Cavs in 6. Think they win game 4, lose 5, then win 6 at home.
Rofl. Refs let contact go in the PO, it's a known thing. If you can't handle being roughed up when trying to get open off teh ball gtfo of the playoffs.
There were plenty of moving screens set for Curry too.

The reason I no longer hold this against him is that I have made my fair share of mistakes in my life and then learned from them. I was fortunate that the world media never gave me the opportunity to make any of my mistakes on such a big stage. I will also say that I've been impressed by LeBron's behavior since that time. He seems to have learned a lot.
