As to the LeBron thing, specifically, I guess that I keep coming back to that because, for lack of a better word, I'm getting triggered by the concept of praising being "anti-LeBron" as a desirable trait. Especially since I feel like there are more apt comparisons, if you want to elevate somebody, while attacking somebody else. For one thing, James has never "ring chased." He's left three times, all three times as a free agent, and all three times, he went to a team that wasn't a contender until he got there: that's the opposite of chasing a ring. You want to call somebody a ring chaser? That would be Anthony Davis. And, by the way, all the stuff that gets levied at LeBron James ("coach killer," "diva," "antics," "needs help to win")... all of that applies to Anthony Davis, and yet, all of that somehow sticks to LeBron, and none of it sticks to Anthony Davis, and I don't understand why that is?
If anything, Giannis Antetokounmpo is the anti-AD, but I guess that isn't as catchy, or something.
