LeBron James is an NBA player for the Cleveland Cavaliers. “King James” was highly promoted in the national media as a future NBA superstar while still a sophomore in high school. At just 18, he was selected with the number one pick in the 2003 NBA draft by the Cavaliers and signed a US$90 million shoe contract with Nike before his professional debut. James has set numerous youngest player records since joining the league. He was named the NBA Rookie of the Year in 2003–04, NBA Most Valuable Player in 2008–09, and has been both All-NBA and an All-Star every season since 2005.
LeBron is only 24 years old and technically could be a classmate in some of your classes in a parallel universe. You’d probably hate him because he’d be the guy bagging all the girls, but still…LeBron James. Look at all he has done and his awards (below). As awesome as you may be: Fuck you, LeBron James, you make us feel like we haven’t done shit with our lives.

[...] LeBron James, has had quite the playoffs for himself as well. Averaging 34.7 PPG throughout the playoffs is magnificent, along with 6.7 assists per game and 8.8 rebounds per game, King James puts up overall great numbers. And who can forget that game-winner 3 pointer with 1.0 seconds left in the 4th quarter of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. After I tell my friend, “See, I told you the Magic would win,” he receives the inbound pass and with the grace reminiscent of MJ himself, nails a 3 as time expires to win the game 96-95. That shot alone could have won him Athlete of the Month honors in almost any other month. [...]
