It's pretty straight forward and the poll is open to interpretation - i.e. you can judge it solely on his basketball skills, his personality or both.
I don't love him or hate him. I think he's a great basketball player and there's really no denying that. Statistically speaking he could be better than Michael Jordan when it's all said and done. He won't become the brand that is Michael Jordan, but he could become just as great.
Most people didn't have a problem with him until he left Cleveland. Personally, I can't fault him for leaving. I can't fault a guy for wanting to go somewhere where he has a better chance of winning a championship, especially when Cleveland didn't add the pieces he needed to win a championship. He gave them a solid portion of his NBA career and he didn't get much done.
The only reason I knock him is because of The Decision. It was stupid and not a good choice in the least degree. And then he came out with a ridiculous commercial trying to defend himself, when in reality he didn't need to defend himself to anyone. He made his choice and, personally, I think it was the right choice to go to Miami.
Jordan was no angel, and neither is James. I think he's a great player with arrogance. But how many great players aren't arrogant at least a little?
