lebron james...

Definitely one of the greatest basketball players I've ever seen play.   And I've witnessed Bill Russell playing live.

The kid has won 2 NBA titles.  Went to 4 straight NBA Finals with the Heat.  Willed a clearly talent deprived Cleveland team to the NBA Finals and the kid still doesn't get the respect he deserves.  

Let's forget that Ill conceived Decision he made with Chris Bosh & Dwyane Wade in 2010.  That did turn me off, but only for a season.  I was happy when Dallas beat Miami for the title in 2011.  

After that, I became a LeBron fan again.  

Sure his high school games were televised on ESPN and I could honestly say I didn't think he would become the all around great player he has worked himself up to be.  

The bottom line he's a team player.  

I hope he wins a few more titles in his career.   James is 29 and his window is the next 5 seasons.  

But you never know, Tim Duncan at 38 won his 5th title...
