And durability is a concern. He's built like a mack truck but guys with his build tend to heal much slower than a Jordan/Kobe. He'll more than likely be average by the time he's 31.

I take crazy stands because I love to be right. I want this s.hit archived so I can torture you and other LeBron fans for years to come.
There is a lot of truth here without question. Athletes of his stature are often what you describe. 24 year olds in general can be childlike....and with hundreds of millions of dollars there will certainly be a narcissist quality. What he is at 31 health wise is simply a guess. Karl Malone kept going with his mack truck build. I'm a Cleveland fan so I like him...that's it. He has for the most part lived up to expectations on the court 100 percent and has not been a disgrace off the court by any means. He confiscated the tape of the Xavier player dunking on him...he wore a Yankee hat to an Indian playoff game...wow...big stuff there. His game is not perfect by any means...you highlighted them, he has a much improved but still insonsistent jump shot that he goes to too much at crunch time. In the end, I'm only a LeBron sycophant because I'm a Cleveland fan. He makes their NBA team pretty good for the most part.

boston, orlando, west champions still to come. There's a good chance the loss will come and you will laugh.
