illogically-kicking asked: From purely a b ball standpoint, do you think lebron james is over rated? I know he may not be such a great person and I know he has the tendency to choke but do you think he's overrated ?

he overrates himself, to be honest. stephen smith says it how it is. lebron gives himself nicknames like the king or the chosen one when he hasn’t even won. that, in itself, is overrated. 

but as much as i hate him, i would have to say that for his talent, mixed with a combination of his huge physical stature, is probably the most dominant force to ever step onto an NBA basketball court. he totally has what it takes to become the greatest to ever play the game (at a physical and talent standpoint). but i would have to say that the mental portion of his game isn’t there. that’s what separates him from the real greats. his drive to win, his heart, and that will power that jordan and kobe have isn’t there with him. but, if i would have to pick a winner based strictly on physical ability, size, NOT HEART AND THE COMPETITIVE DRIVE (which i feel is VERY VERY important in the NBA), i would pick lebron james out of the three. and i HATE LEBRON JAMES. he pisses me off because he’s so inconsistent when he shouldn’t be. he has the talent, obviously. it’s so stupid. so i say he’s overrated but, at the same time, not.
