And that is ridiculous to blame 1 player for behavior that most use.

And as I said it started before LeBron.

He’s pissed off a lot of fans in a way
nobody has ever done before

@Pastafazul

Since you keep incorrectly insisting LeBron created flopping, or whatever nonsense you believe, here's an article you can ignore. Guess what? LeBron isn't mentioned.

biggest floppers in nba history, ranked from 10 to 1 (clutchpoints 12/21/23)

Dillion Brooks, Lance Stephenson, James Harden, Manu Ginobili, Robert Horry, Pat Bev, CP3, Bill Laimbeer AND the godfather of flopping was so bad he has the # 1 and # 2 spots in that article- Vlade Divac.

Now here's another article where LeBron is mentioned. But he's not # 1. He's not even in the top 10.

15 worst floppers in NBA history (bleacherreport) that article is from 2011 though (# 1- Manu, # 2 Divac, # 3 Laimbeer / the fella you hate so much is # 13) <---don't bother mentioning how old the article is, already did that

And one more. youtube video- the story of flopping: 1960's to present (now pay close attention to how far flopping in the NBA really goes back) Blaming the fella you hate-hate-hate so much for something that can be traced back decades is asinine on your part.

He pissed people off because he is legitimately bad at managing PR and he is outspoken about politics in a way a lot of people don’t like. The decision was the first knock.

But that is how things go. People decide they don’t like him for reasons like that and they find tiny things to pick at.

Look hard enough at ANYONE and you will find reasons to dislike them.

MJ had plenty. But possibly the single greatest difference between MJ and LeBron is that MJ played in an era before social media. Beat writers mostly protected him from bad press and nobody else was reporting anything negative about him until Sam Smith wrote Jordan Rules. And he caught a lot of flak for it.

If LeBron so much as looks in the wrong direction we hear about it.

I guarantee you that even though MJ was a PR master, if he played today he would have a lot more people who dislike him.

I'd say last comment a lock. Think cheating on his wife would have gotten more run today and, sure, allegedly not paying those gambling debts that may have led to father's death?

Yes , that is impressive and he should be acknowledged for the example that he sets off the court .

No excuse for the antics of floppin and cryin to refs after every touch on the court which has come to the attention to the NBA fan base which is puttin it all over internet. And it it being touched up. It’s embarrassing what he’s doin for a call

The problem with your Lebron crap is that you act like he's the only player who ever flopped or bitched about the refs. Virtually all NBA players cry to the refs...either looking for a call or disputing one.

Hell, I don't think Tim Duncan was ever called for a foul where he didn't at least give the ref a "who me?" look.

Yes if want to go the other way (fouling not being fouled) duncan thinks he never fouled anyone.

 

[logic]

Leflop at 40 , nobody in the game ever looked like him or could play the minutes

I just don’t go for his demand of attention he so desperately acts like he needs

Kareem was probably the closest, still playing over 30 mpg and putting up close to 20ppg at 40.

Guess I’ll correct myself since MJ was playing 37 and putting up 20 in his final season at 40.
