Lebron gave up last year by scoring 40+ points in both games 5 and 6 and then a triple double in game 7. 
41 points -16 rebounds - 7 assists in game 5 as a response to being down 3-1, but it was all Kyrie. I'm literally reading Skip Bayless' twitter here. What an idiot.

you guys should sometimes film yourselves while posting to give a better idea on how those and look in real life, I mean are you really laughing and crying at the same time while discussing basketball on an internet forum?

I find LeBron INFINITELY more likeable then a dickbag like Micheal Jordan. That guy is past being a douche, he deserves to get robbed naked and tossed in a jail, then the guards will mistake him for a convict trying to escape and they lock him up.

LeBron is an active member of his community, pays for poor kids college tuition, doesn't shit on fans.
Jordan, just a giant dick extorting his fans, spits on his fans, disgusting person. He's a black materazzi basically, heck even materazzi would be nicer to you even while wearing a juve shirt, greet Jordan while decked out in 3000$+ Jordan brand clothing and he'll tell you to get the fuck out his way
Watch Delle Ali win Ballon d'Or twice in a row, and a EC, WC and treble.
That's what I keep reading, him being super involved in Cleveland, sending kids to school, that's super admirable!
I honestly can't believe anybody still doubts LeBron's greatness after last year's finals. And LeBron might look like an arrogant guy on the court but he's an amazing guy out of the court.

Also involved in Akron. I have a friend there who tells me they worship the guy. I'm not sure any sports figure is of that status perhaps except the guy in my avatar.

In the Jordan years the NBA was very balanced - a number of teams had their 1-2 star player, eventual HOF-er, combos.
Just off the top of my head, just in the East in the 80s-90s you had the Bulls, Pistons, Knicks, Pacers, Orlando, Heat, Celtics battle it out to make the finals.
Today, the Cavs could basically put Lebron in bubble wrap until they play the Warriors in the finals.

MJ may not have paved your way with rose petals but that's what made him and that era of basket so great, so genuine, unlike the fake, acted-out rivalries these days.
Back then smack talk was smack talk and players would often end up in fist fights during games. Today, a stare passes for tough and ballsy.
And yes, the weakling and mental midget that Lebron is, indeed represents the ideal of "winning mentality" and "mental toughness" in today's off-brand, vanilla basketball. That's why people who's idea of basket was formed over the past 10 years or so find it so difficult to believe that Lebron is somehow not a winner but a hack who's benefiting from the lack of competition, especially in the Eastern Conference.
Back in the 80s and 90s, today's tough guys would have lived in lockers and had their lunch money spent by the likes of Jordan, Oakley, Bird, Ewing, Barkley, Thomas, Payton and the likes.
Here is a refresher of the good old days when men were men and basketball was basketball
