16. "I really didn't like LeBron the first few years of his pro career" In response to In response to 0 Tue Jan-15-13 02:57 PM by mrhood75
Those first couple of years, I thought the NBA & ESPN was trying to shove him down our throat without him earning it. I thought they waaaay overhyped his first pro game (Dude scored 25 points in a game where they lost to the Kings by 14, and ESPN treated it like it Jordan dropping 63). I hated the manufactured "controversy" of him not making the All-Star Game (there was talk that Stern should have made an executive decision and put him onto the East's roster). I thought it was bullshit that he won the ROY instead of Carmelo (still believe this, Anthony got his team to the play-offs with a much better record and had better individual numbers).
Don't know when I came around. I know it was before the huge play-off game against the Pistons, but I can't pin-point it exactly.
