The Decision, or whatever it was spoiled it for me with LeBron. Not a fan, as it always seems to be all about him. Narcissus in a uni . . . .Would not be good to see him as a Warrior, at all.

I’m amused by all the haters. LeBron was a star when he was still a kid and easily could have been spoiled by the fame and money. Instead, what did he do?  Stayed with the same woman since day 1. Actively parented his kids. Gave enormous amounts of time and money to philanthropic causes. Returned to his hometown to win a championship. Put in the work every day to stay on the top of his game through age 39. Competed 4 times for his country for no pay. The dude is a stand up guy and the ego is well earned. Any team in the league would be beyond thrilled to have him.

"Hater"? Seriously? I said I'm not a fan, and I'm not, but I don't understand why "not a fan" becomes a "hater"? Why the personal attack?

I'm not a fan of LeBron. Give me Steph every day of the week, and twice on Sundays, and I think he checks most of the same boxes you mentioned, but without the attitude.

As for your philanthropic notions, I lived in Syracuse in the 90's, home to the largest ponzi scheme in history up until Madoff. Those running it? The most influential and philanthropic family in town: https://www.syracuse.com/news/2014/12/ed..._dies.html
