Haha! I like the intensity of the playoffs. I turn on a game and if it grabs me I watch it. If not I don't, but there have been some pretty good games and some interesting series.I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

I am always amazed when I watch LeBron. The man is as good as anyone that has ever played the game.

I’d say 3 primary reasons:
- LeBron’s the face of the NBA the last 20 years when the game changed a lot and for those that don’t like the direction, he’s the easiest guy to target
- LeBron’s almost always controlled his own narrative and some people can’t stand that.
- he’s not Jordan. A lot of Jordan people can’t stand that LeBron is considered alongside Jordan in the greatest conversation
( a subset of the Jordan item is the Kobe Corollary - there are a bunch of sycophant Kobe devotees who HATE that LeBron is considered a greater player and rage about it every chance they get).

This isn't really Lebron's fault but fans love seeing a star who grows up on a team and eventually takes them to a championship. LeBron' moving around to put himself in title contention rubs people the wrong way, especially when you maneuver it the way he did with the Heat. Bird and Magic didn't have to deal with that because they were drafted into a perfect situation right away. The Decision was not great for the brand.
But he is 20 years in and he is still one of the top players, it's amazing. The only other guy who was this great and impactful still at age 38 was Kareem. The Lakers team has a shot at the title and you wouldn't have thought that was possible in February.
