I wasn't talking about butthurt Cleveland fans. I was referencing everyone else who hates Miami because of 'The Decision' and the celebration after the big 3 signed.

In Miami, he courted battier, Nash, etc.... In Cleveland, he didn't even try to get anyone. And no player knew if lebron was going to stay so they steered away from Cleveland.

But most of all, you're nuts if you don't think the decision is going to weigh big time on his legacy. The story will remain that lebron couldn't win a championship by his own means, so he had to form an artificial superpower to do it. It's the arod narrative. This championship certainly helps his legacy. But the decision will always out him in a distant class from the greats.
You're hilarious.

The Cleveland roster from the Finals was (*starter):
Drew Gooden*
Daniel Gibson*
Z*
Sasha Pavlovic*
Larry Hughes
Damon Jones
Donyell Marshall
Scot Pollard
Eric Snow
Anderson Varejao
David Wesley
Shannon Brown
Ira Newble
Dwayne Jones

That's AWFUL.

Secondly, what player has won a championship on his own? Last I checked TEAMS, not individual players, win Championships and nearly every team (except maybe Dallas & Detroit - one time wonders) that's won a Championship in forever has had at least 2 stars.
