LeBron's commercial, combined with a Jordan commercial... incredible.

See, here is the thing with LeBron, LeBron is missing that one thing that MJ and Kobe, Magic and Bird, and all the greats had, and that's this ability to take all that hate, all of critics and use it as fuel to his fire. Kobe was at his best between 2003-2009, when the world HATED him, when he touched the ball and people wanted to rip his head off. MJ used whatever little hate that was thrown his way and then spit out his Hall of Fame speech. LeBron is going around asking why people hate him, he has not matured yet to the point of keeping the distractions away and using it as fuel to win. That will come, LeBron we forget is 26, MJ didn't win his first NBA title until the age of 28, skipping high school I feel has hurt LeBron's maturity in the game. Kobe didn't win his first title without Shaq until he was 30, and went to his first NBA finals without Shaq until he was 29. So years in the NBA don't mean much, it's actual maturity and once LeBron learns that he will be a dangerous, dangerous basketball player. Until then, Wade should lead the way when healthy because he has "IT" when it comes to that drive.

Na, LeBron was missing that one thing they ALL had, but he's got Wade & Bosh now. Wade will be his future Hall of Fame teammate that will help him get his ring lol.

Have I not said it before... what.. would you not be happy until Laker fans get on their knees and suck LeBron's dick... dude this is why no other Laker fan even says LeBron has skill because then bitches like you want to take what I say out of context, and even when I give LeBron some props you still think I'm dissing... well fuck that! I'm still going to think LeBron is the best talent ever in the NBA, but he needs to mature. But like MJ and Kobe... that takes time.. MJ in 1989 was thought of as a selfish scorer who will never win. Look how that turned out. So just because LeBron ain't going to win now, and I'm calling him out on it doesn't mean I don't think his ever going to win. Yes I'm a Laker fan, and in my perfect world the Lakers win every year, but you can't win every year. And I'm calling next year as the year LeBron finally wins his NBA title. And I would have said next year even if he kept his talents in Cleveland.

This is a good article though as to why people hate LeBron. I think this hold true, LeBron is in the prime of his career and people think he cheated. In the US, a country of highly competitive people, we see teaming up with our enemies as cheating. When we elect politicians, we want the ones who are going to fight the other side, not actually work out solutions with them, we have to be the best at everything and our sports teams have to be the best. So LeBron, by building his own all-star team, in our opinions, cheated and didn't win a title on his own, even though no NBA great has. Magic had Kareem, MJ had Pippen, Hakeem had Maxwell and then Clyde, Duncan had Robinson then Parker, Wade had Shaq, Shaq had Kobe, Kobe had Gasol and on and on.

^Him maturing has nothing to do with winning. He was close to winning himself, in Cleveland, before they even got him mighty Mo Williams.
The difference? He lost to a Spurs team with three all-stars in the lineup & one of the best defensive teams of the decade. He's lost to the Celtics, with three Hall of Famers & a SUPERSTAR of a point guard. He lost to the Magic, with more all-stars & great role players. You guys keep arguing this fact & I feel like you're all forgetting it's a team game lol.
Iverson & T-Mac proved it before LeBron, you cannot & will not win alone. You're honestly going to tell me swap Kobe & T-Mac back in Shaq's days & the Lakers don't still win? & that's not a shot at Kobe or discrediting what he accomplished. It's just acknowledging that, that Lakers team was good enough where any all-star caliber guard in Kobe's place would of won there.
I'm not even saying you're hating, I'm just saying throw all that bullshit "give it time" out the window; bottom line he's never had a team that was a championship roster. For him to have won in Cleveland multiple times would be something Michael Jordan, himself, couldn't have done. But now, in Miami, he has what he needs.
