???? Hmmmm he botched those free throws, however... Would you still consider him a top 5 player like the media does?

Honest question, has he been to the WCF? Has he lead his team there like Kobe?

Gasol>>>>>Griffin by the way.

I guess it's a no... It's ok because there are no Clippers' fans, so it's ok to hate on the Heat?

Russell Westbrook is now the best point guard in the league so no.

Would Chris Paul get any criticism if he told a potential buyer that a Honda 2000 was a proficient vehicle to purchase, than that said vehicle was wrapped around a poll a week later by the driver test driving one?

Even if he was on the Lakers, he'd probably get a pass.

Someone else has seen the light


The TEFLON kid will walk away without a shred of criticism again.


When his teams win in the regular season - CP3 did it all himself


When his teams always lose in the post-season - It is Lebron James fault

Where are the millions threads on here about CP3 choking? This board would be on fire if LBJ did the same thing

Because Chris Paul is a nobody! To even mention him in the same sentence as LeBron is kinda silly.

True but if KD did the same thing everyone on here would be quiet and act like it never happened also.

You didn't know that LBJ is the only superstar in the NBA on here who get criticizes if he misses a shot or some free throws late in the game?

KD isn't going to do it. He's hands down the best in the league.


And rondo > paul

Well, you know, alot of that is from people who haven't gotten over The Decision.

However, is you look at all sports, some guys just get more criticized than others.

And, when you are the best player in the game, expectations are simply higher for you than others.

Who takes more heat for a bad playoff game? Matt Schaub or Peyton Manning?

How about a bad playoff series? Jose Altuve or ARod? (Even before he became ARoid).

Does a no-name or Tiger Woods take more crap for a bad day on the links?

LeBron is not alone in this. The best of the best never gets a free pass. And they shouldn't want one either. The best of the best should have even higher expectations of themselves than fans have.

Gotta love the hypocrisy of Heat fans. Posts this on the Net/Raptors thread:

Leave to a dumb lakers fan to bring up that team from Florida in a Toronto/Brooklyn series thread


Then posts this on a thread that has nothing to do with Lebron.

Leave it to a dumb Heat fan to bring up that guy in Florida in a CP3 thread.:whistle:

Im going to explain this to you, one more time. When you are hated or considered one of the greats of all time, you will get criticized more. Stop acting like this is a new thing because its Lebron. Kobe, Manning, and Arod has been going through it forever.

KD is not on pace to be one of the greats?

Durant just like CP3 been getting a free pass throughout his career. The only player who came in at the same time of LBJ or after who get criticized a lot is Melo.....Yeah Manning get criticized but so does Brady, Big Ben, Eli, and now Kaep

Durant gets a free pass because people view him as a likeable guy. LeBron gets ripped because people view him as a me first player who had to go to someone else's team to win.

He was criticized just as much when he was on Cleveland so that is a lame reason
