    He's not the best. He hasn't won anything. He disappears in clutch moments, so odds are he probably NEVER will win anything- and this is why he will always be overrated.

    LEGENDS want the ball when there's a chance to win it. Chumps pass it. Lebron is no legend. And until he becomes the greatest, he'll always be overrated.
    He's not even the best in the league yet. But ESPN would have you believe otherwise.

    LeBron singlehandedly beat the Pistons in Game 5 when he scored like almost 30 points or something like that unanswered. He was also hella clutch in Game 7 last year. Just didn't get enough help to get past the Big 3.

    Oh man. I remember when Gloat posted less, and it was harder to argue with him because he actually picked his arguments... Lately it's like he's gone on a bender and is just swinging blind!

    (I'm not arguing about LeBron though, mostly because I hate the NBA.)

    The guy had one great playoff game. One. Against a Pistons team that wasn't even that good at the time, just in a weak conference.
    Then he did absolutely nothing to help his team advance afterward.

    That's three teams out of 8.

    The West have 9 teams who could pull it out and only 8 of them would make it.

    Very much so. You don't think beating a terrible MSU team does anything to help their argument do you?

    They just got lucky that MSU beat all the teams that would have handed UNC their arses. They won a championship by beating absolutely no one the entire tourney.

    How MSU got past the sweet 16 is a mystery to me. These guys are horrible.
    The unforced turnovers alone look like an AAU team's. Then the travels, the terrible defense and falling for some of the silliest head-fakes? Amazing how bad they are.

    Overachieved until it mattered.

    As a Wizards fan I hate LeBron, but he's not overrated. I'm not sure who you root for but I have a feeling that might shed some light on why you find him overrated.

    No. 1 to start the season, No. 1 to end the season. They were rated exactly right.

    Nobody said they were the greatest team of all time, only that they were the best team in the country this season. They beat everybody that they had to play in the tourney and won it all. They're the only team that can say that. If another team was the best team in the nation they wouldn't have lost.

    But they weren't the best team in the country. Goes back to the ol' "the best team doesn't always win" saying.
    The other teams actually had to play quality opponents and weren't handed a spot in the championship.
