(NOTE: I wrote this crap a long time ago – at the very moment my intense hatred for LeBron was born.  Yes, some of it is out of date.  Most of it isn’t.  No, I’ll never get around to changing it.  Yes, I am lazy.)

We are all witnesses…

…to the bullshit.

Why does this site exist?  Simple: because I hate LeBron James.  I hate him for many reasons – some within his control, some outside of his control.  However, ultimately, he is the one most responsible for what he has become: a complete monstrosity.  So I focus my hatred on him.  I hate LeBron James.

LeBron James has been the most hyped sports figure, possibly the most hyped human being, in the history of civilization.  Think about how ridiculous that is.  Nike conspired with a bunch of cracker-ass suburban teenagers, Stuart Scott, and thousands of sweatshop factory owners in Southeast Asia to create a GOD out of a kid who bounces an orange ball off of a wooden floor.  And most of this transpired before he even played in a single NBA game, let alone before he made his first playoff game-winning shot with the help of an unconscionable travesty of a five step, triple pivot foot travel.

I didn’t start out hating on LeBron.  When he first came into the league, I decided that it wasn’t his fault a bunch of goons had decided to invest millions and millions of dollars in him and turn ESPN into a scientology-esque brainwashing mechanism to pump him up.  I gave him a fair shake.  But ever since the Cavs lifted themselves out of the basement and into relevancy, and I actually had to see LeBron play in some games of consequence, I realized that I just can’t stand the pompous jerk he has become. The real LeBron is an entirely different creature than the LeBron filtered through Sportscenter, stories written by spineless sportswriters with massive LeBoners, and super-overwrought Nike commercials.  Bottom line: LeBron is a cheater.  Charging?  Not Lebron.  If they consistently call him for charging in one game, he whines during and after the game, and the calls abruptly stop.  Remember Kobe’s “the charge/dunk” on Steve Nash?  LeBron did the same thing, only more obvious, and of course it was completely overlooked during the in-game and post-game analyses.  And “The Travel” game-winner?  What a joke.  And, as both the Wizards and Pistons series proved, it is pretty clear that nobody calls fouls on the Cavs at the end of close games.  Did I just see a foul on Gilbert Arenas?  Rip Hamilton?  Rasheed Wallace?  Nope.  Of *course* not.

And the announcers?  If I couldn’t actually hear them clapping their hands like little schoolgirls every time LeBron touches the ball, I would swear they were gently cradling LeBron’s nut sack with them.  And all of this is LeBron’s fault.  He loves it and feeds it with a steady diet of overexposure, mega-annoying antics, and transparent displays of false humility.  However, despite Nike’s legion of handlers and PR guys, LeBron’s false modesty has fallen away, exposing him for the pampered, ultra-conceited, ref-coddled little punk that he is.  He relishes in the circus of bullshit like a spoiled little brat.  The talcum powder clap thing?  The whining and scowling when he is clearly allowed to travel, charge, and bumble his way to the basket on every play?  Talking trash when he knows damn well that he wins games because of 1972 Olympics vs. the Russians-style bullshit?  Yeah, he had his “the mailman doesn’t deliver on Sundays” moment.  But it was pathetic and tacky, not ballsy.

What does all this mean?  Mark my words: LeBron James will be the one to finally ruin the NBA.

Throughout the ages, many assholes have tried to destroy professional basketball…but they have all fallen just short.  Some were great players, some were huge jerks, most were a combination of the two.  Wilt Chamberlain: too powerful.  Michael Jordan: too good.  Shaq: too much of a freak.  Kobe: the Gumby fade (oh, and he might have done a couple of other things…). Scottie Pippen: never tipped a waitress in his life.  Harold Miner: just plain sucked.  None of these guys forced fans to totally write off professional basketball.  But none of these guys had enough nicknames to get the job done, did they?.  LeBron “Golden Child, LeBronze, Chosen One, ‘Air’ Apparent, Bill Brasky, King” James will succeed where they failed.

Does anyone really think that a player already christened as the greatest player ever by dozens of prominent sportswriters won’t be fellated by the media so as not to render all of their “greatest player ever” predictions invalid?   Does anyone really think that the player unanimously decreed to be the future of the NBA before he played a single game, and who is the foundation of Nike’s biggest marketing campaign ever, won’t be shamelessly protected by the refs?  If LeBron ever does win an NBA title, it will have at least as much to do with the 8,000 foot Nike poster plastered on the side of the moon as it has to do with his skills.

So, in summary, I hate LeBron James with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns.  So should you.  And by the way, Cavs fans, you’re a bunch of punks.  I hope you cry when LeBron ditches you for  the bright lights of New York.  I’m glad Jordan made that one shot on Craig Ehlo and then almost punched his head off.  You deserved it.  I might feel sorry for you after you have repented and you begin to hate the Knicks or the Nets or whatever franchise steals your star.  Cause he’s not yours for long.

    good one mate, u wudnt wont lebron on your team. then ur r stupid who wud u rather have

    @jmak2228

    jmak you idiot, do you watch the nba? You think they will call a foul on him? The point is that he tucks the ball under his arm, takes 6 steps to the basket, runs into someone along the way, and then dunks it. There will be no travel called and no charging called. Not because they didn’t happen but because the refs won’t/can’t call it on lecrap. I think it may even be in the rules now.

    lebron james sucks balls. His only redeeming quality is that he is destroying the nba and making it even more obvious to sports fans that the nba is as scripted as professional wrestling. Enjoy your entertainment because it’s not a sport!

  3. lakers says:

    KF- I dont remember anyone ever taking six steps to the hoop. that was a good point though. I dont really remember lebron running into someone on the way to the hoop and then dunking it after. you fucking dumb ass your going to hell for this bull shit. the cavs are coasting to the finals and you cant stand it you fucking piece of shit.

    Ya did you see him take the 6 steps before hitting a 36 footer? or maybe he travels on the 3′s he took against the hawks. Get you head out of your ass and watch the game, if your wellfair checks give you enough money try a dvr watch the game in slow motion. ya 2 steps. Lebron doesn’t wrestle people he drives to the lane, if there to slow to get infront of him to take a charge how is that LBJ doing something wrong? You people are all just dumb. Learn the game, try watching something more than sports center and then we can talk. He had 3 fouls in game 4 so ya they will call him for fouls, sorry our guy knows how to play the game.

    lebron must take steriods or somethin’

  6. KF says:

    @lakers
    No lakers, you’re going to hell for your man-love with lecrap. I love the cavs going to the finals. Reread my post and you’ll see that he is the death of the nba. Can’t wait to see the league go, although the crime rate will jump up once these guys are unemployed.

  7. KF says:

    @jmak2228
    As for you jmak, I know enough about the game to know a fix when I see one. Read the article on this site about the crab dribble and then admit the truth. lecrap cheats and gets away with it. I love pissing off you cleveland pussies. Your city sucks so bad that you’re desperate to love anyhting that pulls you out of your miserable life. How the hell do you have a lake catch on fire? pathetic. Wow, three whole fouls in a game. You need to stop calling the nba a game. I told you, it’s scripted entertainment. They’ll give the cavaliers the title this year to lessen the sound of your vaginas crying when lecrap leaves you for ANYWHERE else. Say bye bye. HAhaha.

  8. mitch says:

    @Austin
    wow u r such a wanker, and u use the same comeback everytime, and wait ohhhh u came back to the site cos u have no life, one of the best teams in the nation ahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha funny, so deperate u have to come ona site like this obviously designed for people who dont like lebron james to come chat, and have to try and look cool, u know wat why dont u go sumwhere a vomit so u can feel beter bout yourself

    You got me! No you just said CRAB DRIBBLE! and guess what? LEBRON DID GET CALLED FOR TRAVELING! Guess that game was fixed and the NBA wanted us to lose. But again all the big names get away with calls, refs miss them it happens. Sorry your team doesn’t have one, thats no reason to hate LeBron. If he leaves in 2010 then thats that, but for now he’s a Cav and making a run for the NBA Championship!

  10. Iverson says:

    LeBron has physical skill. No denying that. But I will NEVER put him in the same category as Jordan and Kobe because of one quality LeBron is missing: CLASS. I don’t want to see an angry face after EVERY dunk. Do I have to watch him make some type of gyration after EVERY shot? Like Phil Jackson tells his players…act like you’ve made a shot before! He’s so full of antics, it’s ridiculous. Dancing routines before games? Pretending you’re taking pictures with your teammates with imaginary cameras before the game? Give me a break. That is what will keep him out of the Jordan/Kobe caliber of all around player. Even “Air Jordan” simply speaks to the skill level of MJ. “Black Mamba” as well. But “King James” going to a kid who’s never won any bling? Give me break.

    He’s in the same category as Carmello and to be honest, Carmello has college bling!

  11. lbj is a bitch says:

    If lebron wins a championship this year. I will never watch this sport again. I hate the way he gets all these calls. I agree deep he makes basketball look too fake.

  12. jmak2228 says:

    come on, you ever watch kobe play? Now you said LBJ dosn’t have class because he makes mean face? Wow really watch Kobe… Im not saying its cool to make mean face after every dunk but damn, you said kobe has class because he dosn’t do that?? Really.. WOW…. ya watch a game. Rember Jordan shooting free throws with his eyes closed? So you hate LBJ thats cool, its your right but think of better examples if your going to say thats why you dont like KING James.

  13. aiight well while yall just keep hating on lebron maybe you should go get YOUR OWN life straightened out? lol lebron james is making more money then you guys all put together and while you guys are on this site writing hate mail,maybe you should take some advice from him and learn to work your audience in a way that make you money. Lebro makes money because people like him, though through this site i’ve come to the reality that HATERS STILL EXSiST.lol well i have just ONE QUESTION:

    Why not Shaq???

    lol Lebron doesn’t get NEARLY as much attention as he does.lol.your focusing your attention to a random man and giving him the attention that is apparently [[to you]] so undeserved. your contradicting yourself and your extinguishing your own fire lol.
    just food for thought

    wow kobe is evn worse so just shut up

  15. Did a 6 year old create this site? says:

    It’s pretty rad that the author of this site spent so much time and so many words to basically say nothing. That game winning 3 last night pretty much makes whatever semblance of an argument you had invalid. What’s your deal? I think you need to get laid or something, instead of spending all your time sitting in front of a computer screen moderating this cheeseball site.

  16. Austin says:

    Hahaha u fags see that shot, lebron. And you think he gets calls watch the game and down the stretch they called him for traveling. King James

  17. core huff says:

    You what i dont nessecary love lebron when hes playing my team, but the man is a god with a basketball. the guy that made this site is probably some knicks fan whose pissed that lebron lights them up. stop being a bitch and take it like a man. He better then anyone you’ve ever watched and hes not a cheater. the man is too good for you to make an entire site on some bull shit i hate lebron talk. get a life

  18. core huff says:

    you and the creator of this website should hook up. seriously your both dumb shits. your telling me the scream Kobe does when he hits a three is different then an angry face? can you hear an angry face? didnt think so. Yeah the picture things is over the top. But im not a Cavs fan and i love watching him light it up every night

  19. NBATroll says:

    Serves him right. Too bad they can’t go back in time and call him for traveling on that game winning layup he hit against the Wizards a few years back.

  20. Cecil says:

    What’s up with the talcum powder??? Enough already, especially when he’s at an away game. And while he’s at it, he really should lose that stupid headband. But then again, it makes him look stupid, so okay I take it back. But enough with that powder!!!

  21. Chic who never really watch basketball until this season says:

    I recently started watching basketball and mostly the Orlando series, I have heard all the hype about Lebron James but never really understood it until now!

    First of all, let me just say anyone out there who thinks that Lebron James is the next Michael Jordon is just plain fucking stupid! Do not get me wrong Lebron James is a great basketball play, if not one of the best.

    It pisses me off, when they never call fouls on him, HE GETS AWAY WITH EVERYTHING! and when they do call a foul on him he is a winy baby. The idea of a Flopper in the MBA just fustrates me, fucking fake, actors in a sport and the Cavs and Navejo are the worst at it. The fact that the Cavs are getting an unfair advantage because they have the next poster child on their team and what is it all for? MONEY The NBA wants another Michael Jordon because Michael Jordon brought in the layperson to the game and they made lots of money selling out tickets. I would be excited if Lebron James could do that for the NBA but the fact that refs can not or will not call fouls or traveling on him. You know what if they would just ease up on the opposing team, I would not even care. This type of activity makes me hate Basketball and makes me not to watch it because it is unfair.

    Also, Lebron James could never be the next Michael Jordon because he is too fucking ugly. I would never touch his nasty, ugly ass with a ten foot pole and yes guys I am HOT!

    Dwight Howard should be the next poster child of the NBA but guess what the NBA does not like center.

    I officially hate Lebron James! Plainly he is a veeeeeerrrrryyyyy good basketball player but he is also one of the biggest pussies in the NBA

  22. I Live in Ohio and he pisses me off says:

    I propose that until Lebron James wins an NBA championship, he be referred to as Prince James, the Duke of Cleveland, the Earl of Cavalier, or James Lebron because James Lebron is a real name. Lebron James sounds like someone messed up your birth certificate.

    I think I am the only person in the state of Ohio who realizes Lebron James steals everything. 1) His number, sorry MJ. 2) Pre-game chalk crap, a rip-off Garnett. 3) His name, Elvis should be pissed. 3b) His name, LBJ was a President 4) Crappy jumpshot, Helen Keller.

  23. jmak2228 says:

    thank god they cant. Wizards are trash

  24. lbj is a bitch says:

    41 points after 28 attempts and 24 free throws. He missed five in the fourth. He is just trying to do too much right now.

  25. jmak2228 says:

    and still shotin over 50% everyone has bad games, would be great if the rest of the team could pick it up.

  26. MEHH says:

    I AGRRE WIT JMAK HIS TEAM NEDD TO HELP WATCH TAHHDAIEE I GARANTEE THAT IF
    MO WILLAMS PICKS IT UP THEY WILL WIN

  27. Rachel says:

    I guarantee you Lebron James has a MANGINA.

  28. MEHH says:

    r yall watcin itt rite noww behind tha bac passes
    you r watchhin god witt a basketball

  29. Conspiracy Theorist says:

    you are awesome

  30. Conspiracy Theorist says:

    Not a cheater huh…you obviously do not follow the BNA playoffs or you listen to it on the radio. Stop eating the shit that bandwagon ESPN writers write about

  31. Conspiracy Theorist says:

    Most people are content with not making as much money ass that asshole because they can honestly say they’ve made the money honestly. LeBrick on the other hand has not.

  32. Stu says:

    OK lets all be honest here. Lebron James is an amazing player, end of story. Its fact and we all know it. Dont get me wrong, I HATE LEBRON. But i hate him because he resembles how teams often depend on just one player and would be half the team withou their one star. Also I hate him because he never smiles or seems to enjoy the game because he is to busy trying to keep up his twatish image. Take for example the chalk toss thing he does. What a dick. Show some emotion you frikkin robot.

    Long live D Wade. A great player who is a nice guy, enjoys what he does and isnt afraid to show it!

  33. greatsite says:

    Excellent point about LB ruining the NBA. He gets so many bullshit foul calls on him, and as you said- nothing called on him, that has perpetuated into the garbage officiating there is today, the “superstar” treatment.

    Ill tell you my latest reason why I hate lebron, last night with a few seconds left he threw up a 3 that had no chance and made a goofy attempt to draw a foul. Great players put up that three to make it, a 4 point play? that just icing on the cake. A shit ass poser of a player, throws up a ball with no chance, hoping only to get that foul.

    If lebron is as great as he thinks he is, wheres the confidence in his shot?

  34. greatsite says:

    one shot, in one game makes all his other bullshit invalid?

    and i think you are the one who needs something else to do, obviously you are not interested in the content of this site, why waste time reading it? and why waste even more time commenting?

  35. nony says:

    LeBron James is the biggest flopper I’ve ever seen. And I used to watch Ginobli on the Spurs, so I can recognize a flop.
    Who says a)they want to be the first billionaire NBA player, and b) this [the game of basketball]is their game?– that’s someone who LOVES the game? That someone you people say has class? well, I’m sorry LeBoner is two letters short. He only cares about LeBron, wake up Cleaveland, you know he mocks you backwoods fucktards every day he’s in that god-forsaken city. Just like CC to the Yanks, LeBron will get his money, because that’s all he cares about.
    I agree, if the Cavs even make it to finals, it’ll be the last NBA broadcast I take part in. Personally, I’m a Dwight Howard fan, great personality, game integrity, and a solid teammate.
    All I heard last night was how LeBron had to do everything himself, blah blah…c’mon, do you really think he could thrive on a team where he had to share any kind of limelight? That might be the only reason he’d stay in Crapland.

    We as fans should be offended that any player thinks they are above what really drives any professional sport…US, the fans.

    Besides, his chalk clap? THAT IS IS MICHAEL JORDAN’S!!! Only after he surpasses Jordan’s 6 Championships, 3-peating twice, will I reconsider my undying hatred for this giant POSER! LeBitch.

  36. Go Nuggets! says:

    Nice call on Cleveland going to the finals fuck head….good luck with your lakers getting there also.

  37. chek_raizor says:

    Scary to think that Orlando would have swept the Cavs had it not been for the ultimate miracle shot…… Bron Bron is good (he’s only 24) … but he is not the majesty that ESPN would like you to think he is.

  38. jmak2228 says:

    Great point like the heat dont depend on D-wade to cary them.. Come on

  39. jmak2228 says:

    so how many rings did jordan have at 24? Bitch. You people on here must be plain stupied. You all make the same points that just dont work out.

    CC didn’t leave cleveland to go to NY he was traded to the cubs then signed with NY as a free agent you Douch bag.

    Good to see your a Dwight Howard fan, cant say he dosn’t just slam and push people outa the way.

    Ok im done with this site, used to be some people with a brain and real reasons to hate LBJ, you dumb people just make up stuff and think it the truth.

  40. jmak2228 says:

    God you people are dumb, since he gets every call why was there no foul? there was contact. Dumb people. Welcome to ihatelebronjames.com

  41. Lebron is god! this website is complete trash says:

    yeah lmao looks the the lakers just whupped that candy ass tonight…3-2 bitch good luck gettin to the finals now

  42. NL says:

    For the love of god stop calling him Bron Bron. People that say that sound like fucking artards. And does anyone else notice that he does the same damn dunk every time. He pulls the ball behind his head and does the same thing. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!!

  43. Stu says:

    yeah you right. But Miami are known as “dwayne wade and the Miami heat” whereas the cavs are known as just simply “Lebron James”. But yes Miami do rely on Wade and without him we wouldnt be a bad team but we certainly wouldnt be great.

  44. Austin says:

    @mitch
    wow okay wtf is a wanker, i have no idea what your saying speak fucken normal english. Okay obviously if your telling me to vomit it means that you do it yourself, are you beliemic or something. why the fuck are to telling me to throwup, its kinda weird, you must have an eating disorder and some type of insurcurity. Haaha its really funny how you come and “chat” on an ihatelebron site, its because you have no other friends to “chat” with, so you come to this site to make stupid comments that make you sound like a retard and meet new people, i get it.
