LeBron choosing the best team available in the weaker conference has actually already paid off with a championship. Things happen- Steph injury, Draymond nut-punch. It was totally part of his calculus.

He's a great basketball player- one of the best ever. You could agree with that but also think him a bandwagon jumping bitch who bails when the rosters - ones which he has an outsized hand assembling- collapse under the weight of their own baked-in shortsightedness.

I don't recall an equivalent. Durant is not. Its like Durant this offseason insisting GSW sign Iggy and Livingston to 15m+ mega deals long-term deals or he walks leading to them losing Klay and then Durant bailing for Boston next offseason.

Also keep in mind that he colluded with Pat Riley(while the league looked the other way as it benefited them) and Wade to join "South Beach". While our 2011 vanquishing of the Heat could not have possibly been sweeter, 2006 was an absolute travesty- with Riley and Wade being the chief benefactors while the league, at best, looked the other way. At worst the league and certain officials colluded to help decide the outcome. I will always despise Wade and his arrogance. And to a lesser extent, by proxy, LeBron- who enabled two more championships for the clown Wade(who has exactly 3 more than he deserves)

In summary: LeBron's one of the greatest ever to play the game. Fuck LeBron.
