Wade will be his future Hall of Fame teammate that will help him get his ring lol.
I still think Kobe 2003 was WAAAY more hated that LeBron 2010, and with good reason, LeBron never had to go to court for what he did, Kobe did. 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. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/michael_rosenberg/11/23/lebron.hatred/index.html
Jordan is actually probably the biggest asshole in all of sports history. At least out of the athletes who actually matter lol
^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.
^Read your last paragraph lmfao.You're basically saying "he cannot win because THEY do not have a big man down low". That DOES NOT have to do with LeBron "maturing". LeBron is clearly in his prime, he's been ready to win, he's been that good of a teammate, it's just now he finally has teammates.You can say it was a weak East division, but regardless, but that just continues to show that he never had a championship team. He's got it now & THEY need time to gel. LeBron has nothing left to improve on.
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?
