Owner Real Deal Posted October 13, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 1. Is LeBron James a winner?Sure he is, just not a champion. He has played his way into two NBA Finals series. People consider Steve Nash a winner, but he's never sniffed the Finals. 2. Is LeBron James overhyped?He used to be, but maybe not as much anymore. People are forgetting what he did throughout the playoffs, and only remember his terrible Finals series, and that leads to people calling him a loser and a choker. Hard to say he's a bad player, though...top three, some will stick him at the top, but there's no way he's below three. 3. True or False: Lebron is hated because of all this hype? Chozen one, King James?True, but most of his hate lies on his decisions and attitude, not so much his success. 4. Best aspect of his game?Him on the break, or getting to the line. 5. Worst aspect of his game?Post game. 6. Where does he rank all time?All time, he's not in the top ten. If you disregard the number of rings a player has, and the number of individual accomplishments, he's probably top 20 in terms of raw ability. I can't stick him anywhere in the top ten, though. 7. In you opinion, where will he rank when it is all said and done?Jordan, Kobe, Magic, Bird, Wilt, Kareem, Duncan, Hakeem, Oscar, Shaq...the way it's looking, if he doesn't end up winning many championships, it's going to be hard to stick him above any of those guys. 8. Your honest opinion of him?Arguably the best player in the NBA, arguably the most dominant frontcourt player since Shaq (can't say LeBron has been more dominant than a prime Kobe), probably the worst attitude I've seen in a superstar since Shaq...funny, but a little too arrogant and too "big screen"...the only difference is, Shaq backed it up by winning four championships, three straight, co-leader of a major dynasty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 1. Yes and no. 2. No, never was and still isn't. 3. He is hated because he is the best player in the world, arrogant, and was handed everything he has (but deserves it nonetheless) 4. Being able to do things that guards do at borderline PF size. 5. Can't play off the ball/can't score off the bounce in the same way that makes Melo/Kobe so hard to guard. 6. Right now no clue, but probably top 10 without a doubt in the end. 7. Top 10. 8. Amazing player, staple of our generation. Arrogant, doesn't put enough work into his game (I think), but still, amazing to watch and the best player in the NBA today and for the foreseeable future.

Owner Real Deal Posted October 13, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 2. No, never was and still isn't.Come on now. He was called the next Mike before he found his way to the 2007 Finals, and before he had a jumper or played any defense. THAT'S being overhyped. Anyone (yes, including Kobe) that is called the next Jordan before they prove they are even a superstar is considered overhyped, and LeBron was getting those calls in his rookie season, when he failed to make the playoffs and had a lot of game to work on.

kingfish Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 1. Is LeBron James a winner? No. He has not performed well enough in the clutch to be considered a winner. Hes just a terrific player. 2. Is LeBron James overhyped? Not anymore. People always said Lebron was better then Kobe, and that the only reason Kobe was winning championships and Bron wasnt is because of the supporting cast. Lebron played with Bosh and Wade and he was horrible in the Finals. 3. True or False: Lebron is hated because of all this hype? Chozen one, King James? Lebron is hated because of his attitude. 4. Best aspect of his game? His ability to finish at the rim. 5. Worst aspect of his game? Closing games. 6. Where does he rank all time? Right now he is a top 50 player. 7. In you opinion, where will he rank when it is all said and done? Ill say top ten. 8. Your honest opinion of him? Still think hes a great player and fun to watch.
