His flopping has nothing to do with what he does off the court. Those aren't mutually exclusive. I can say that he does a lot of good for people, and I have appreciated his recent words for the game's young stars. But I can still believe that his flopping is obnoxious. It's not basketball. He is being a drama king. LBJ loves the attention, and he's been doing that for ages. From his "Decision" to his mocking Dirk Nowitzki being sick in the Finals one year. That's just his style. He is not above some criticism for it.

I am sure you are going to have some SA response, but everyone, even MJ and Kobe, has their faults. LBJ is a great basketball player, but I don't have to like him.

Dude or ma’am all (except kawhi) superstars areattention seekers. Idk why lbj gets the all the blame for this bulljive take. lbj’s faults are FAR less significant than any other superstar in history.

Yet, he can still be criticized for it. LBJ has a list of things he has said and done. You got weird takes. Have fun rooting for him into retirement.

Peyton Manning has faults, too, but he conducted himself in a much more professional way than someone like LBJ.

Dude is in this 17th or 18th SEASON and will LEAD the league in assists. Gonna end up da 1 seed in the west. Hell, he might win the MVP too.

That’s fine that he is criticized for it, but people in here and on sm speak as if he is the only one seeking attention in the nba. You have fun being nitpicking insignificant matters. Aye, if it floats yur boat, keep sailing.

100% agree. I'm not an LBJ fan, like I was never a Kobe fan. Hell, I was never a Bulls or MJ fanboy either. But I 100% respected them all as greats. Fandom is totally separate and often inexplicable (ie Browns fans). But it's just silly when people want to downplay the greats for personal dislike and cannot separate the two realms. I dislike plenty of greats (Saban foremost) but have total respect for the elite level they have attained in their chosen profession. Some just want to hate the greats and downplay them for tangential reasons.

Johnson's career achievements include three NBA MVP Awards, nine NBA Finals appearances, twelve All-Star games, and ten All-NBA First and Second Team nominations. He led the league in regular-season assists four times, and is the NBA's all-time leader in average assists per game, at 11.2

Naw, leading the nba in assists, number seed in da gauntlet west, 1st team all nba, and potentially winning another title in his 17th/18th year. Who has come close to that? Nobody, but I guess that wont satisfy you either.

I think the other guy's point was saying he is doing that in his 17th or 18th season.

Johnson only played 13 seasons.

So you insinuated lbj isnt great and/or you don’t appreciate his greatness because you are a hater of him. I put the 😂 because it’s comical that some people would rather try and be right than get it right. And your comment is a prime example. Take your loss and move along please...View attachment 264191

No, we don't. You just can't stand people criticizing him and think he's the best player ever and want to engage. You call it "nitpicking," I call it a list of things. You just don't like what I have to say.

Kyrie Irving (flat earther) has done some boneheaded things (guess who his first mentor was). Kevin Durant admitted to having fake SM accounts to converse with people because he can't stand criticism.
