    Does Your View On LeBron Change After His Championship?

    Just curious to see if other people have different views now on Lebron since he finally won his ring. I used to hate the guy but can't disrespect the way he plays the game and definitely can't disrespect a champion. I still hate that he left Cleveland, but talent wins games... Teammates win championships!

    Nope... still a great player but personally, I still feel he is a coward.

    You take the easy way out and frankly, you should win every year... you have 3 USA team representative on the same team... 2 in the top 10 and 1 in the top 20 in the world. Just sayin'.

    He is clearly one of the best players/athletes since Jordan... but I think every argument should start with, "When he was alone and had to do it himself, he couldn't get it done..." and I feel that's a valid argument.

    Yes, I know even Jordan had someone near his level... but that was not because he saw Pippen as an equal and was like, "Yea, I should join forces with him and we would be unstoppable" type of deal.
    It's never too early to start believing in miracles.
    Just Sayin'

    Yes

    Perception of a player can change for the better once he wins. I for one hated Wade in 2006 and then a few years later he became my favorite player. Once you are a bball guru you give credit after the fact then while they are doing the stuff.

    Thanks MJ-Bulls for the picture.

    oh shut up

    He took one of the worst 60 win teams in NBA history to the finals, and on the way single handily beating the pistons.

    Lebron is the best player in the NBA...period.

    MIA is just a very hard team to root for.

    Yes Lebron took an easier way to a title, but it is what it is. I think even on CLE he would have won it this year, he was just on a mission.

    He's still the same foot in your mouth jerk. I don't respect him or the way he won this championship.

    why does it have to be about Lebron in the first place?
    Why can't it be about the Heat?

    I respect him A LOT after the way be celebrated his win, and after he hugged Durant as time expired.

    That made me think much more highly of him.

    I will always give him prop for his talent as much as I dont like him, bu no I dont look at him any differantly now that he won a title, he taled a little to much when he arrived in Miami and he has lots to do to back it up. I also think that all the bulls fans out there feel that if Rose was healthy we are talking about the Heat not even getting to the finals, but injuries are part of the game, what can you do....
