radiostationrep: I think you're mistaking people who don't like Lebron & Miami with those who thought they sucked and wouldn't succeed. Because just about everyone thought if they "get it right going into the playoffs" that they would be a force. You're trying to come off as some guy who believed in Miami when no one else did. The Miami Heat were the absolute favorites (+185, Lakers +305) to win it all before the season even started. Hell, some people thought they'd beat the Bulls 95-96 regular season record. So technically, yes, they were supposed to win it all. You say give Lebron his due? The guy won ROY, has multiple MVP trophies, and is a 7x NBA all-star - he's gotten his due. He is clearly one of the best players in the NBA, and even the biggest haters on this board will tell you the same thing. People just don't like him as a human being. You (and a few others) act like this is a revelation, but it's nothing new in sports. The reason why people are calling you a dick-rider is because it wasn't until Lebron came around to Miami that you became hater-conscious. Further, you're trying to refute each and every negative statement made towards Lebron, and you're not even a Heat fan? Come on man.
