To be a great front-runner. When the pressure is on, you make excuses for not finishing the job.
Not a LeBron fan, but was always blown away by his ability to wear the proverbial crown. Christ, they were annoiting this guy as the next coming when he was like 12-13 years old. That is usually a disaster for any athlete, let alone a child. Yet, he delivered, and delivered big, all while seemingly being able to keep it together off the court. I'm not sure there is any other athlete in a comparable situation, where it worked out? Gretzky would probably be the only one, as he was hyped at superstar status when he was nothing more than a child.
I know many don't like his politics, which is fine, or don't like the decision or whatever they labeled it as, which was incredibly stupid. However, the guy is a model for making through when everything was stacked against him on the biggest scale imaginable. Everything under a microscope, unlimited money, unlimited forces pulling you the wrong direction, yet he managed to wade through, even at a young age an became the best player in the league, by a long shot.

LeBron has never been the best player in the league "by a long shot."
I don't know how much hate there is in this thread. What don't you agree with?
