... I'm a Kobe fan people hate him now and despised him before i didnt care because at the end of the Day he was going to murder your team and that attitude has him in discussion for top 5 ever.... Not because the fans proclaimed him but because he won important games, lived up to all the hype and most importantly didnt give two %*!@% who hated him you had to respect him.
How has Lebron not lived up to the hype tho? He has 3 MVPs. Best player in the game. No one even comes close.

What player wouldn't proclaim to win 8 championships? Should he say he's going to win zero? Constant slurpage? He's the most hated player in the game. Disappearing? He leads all players in the 4th quarter scoring. You guys want him to take the last shot just because he's the best player? Nonsense. It's all about making the best basketball play. If Haslem has the hot hand...or if Chalmers has the hot hand...Lebron should look to find them in the closing moments of games if they're open. Come on now.

Who lost two games went into the media and called him out personally) and watched as he did nothing but take horrible shots and turn the ballover. at that point all talk of best player in the league was dead to me.
The Mavs did a great job at defending him. You guys want him to just force shots just because? That's ridiculous. His stats still proved he's the most efficient guy in the league...and has been for quite some time. You guys are going to miss him when he's gone. You should cherish these moments we get to watch a god like athlete perform. They don't come around often.

Watching Charles Barkley gargle the boy yesterday pretty much sums it up for me. He keeps saying he's the best player on earth, yet he misses two straight free throws, gets the ball back defers to d-wade, gets another chance passes to battier
Point being if he's as great as you say he is he goes into that huddle demands the ball and takes that shot you don't Ok a shot to your 6'2 PG who has scored 5 points all night, not when your 6'9 & have a clear advantage over everyone in the game, nah you don't get a pass for that
What about Jordan kicking it out to Steve Kerr & John Paxson to win championships?
What about Derek Fisher and Robert Horry hitting those clutch shots when LA had Kobe & Shaq?
You making it seem like he didn't want to take the last shot. The play was drawn up for Chalmers. If anything blame Spolestra.
You guys are haters man.
