LeBron James: God Sees Everything!


I have always been vocal about my admiration, love and respect for Dwyane Wade. He is my 2nd Michael Jordan. Since he got drafted by Miami Heat until now.


Then there's LeBron James. Bigger. Broader. More aggressive looking. Who is LeBron? And who wouldn't know him? In every major city in the world, you'll see his face with that big check, in NIKE establishments. He entered National Basketball Association (NBA) the same year DWade did.

Why is LeBron so controversial? Why is he being hated by some? Why is he being discriminated or disparaged? Is it because he has not given his then team Cleveland Cavaliers a championship ring? Is that it? Or is it because of what happened last year when he moved to Miami Heat to join with his buddies Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh?

If we can still remember, it caused BIG news, lasted for weeks and even months -- LeBron announced he's leaving for Miami Heat to Dan Gilbert's surprise. Dan wrote a hate letter, Cavs fans created hate videos, and social networking sites were busy with everything that has got to do with the superstar.



I was never a LeBron James fan. Until he moved to Miami Heat. I have developed this respect for this man, not for leaving Cleveland and moving to Miami. But, for things that most of us may have overlooked. He has a heart. He gave up a considerable amount of money for his happiness. He made a choice. He chose to be with his friends, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. He did not retaliate to his haters, at least not directly. He remained humble and kept his silence.

And just a couple of hours ago, he made a noise, not with his big numbers in a Miami Heat game, but because of his controversial tweet. James said in his twitter “Crazy. Karma is a b----.. Gets you every time. Its not good to wish bad on anybody. God sees everything!” The Los Angeles Lakers destroyed the Cleveland Cavaliers in their last match up, 112-57 giving Cavs their 11th straight loss. The tweet, for what most of us would think, is for Dan Gilbert who predicted James would take Cleveland's curse to Miami.

Indeed, LeBron James is a superstar, love him or hate him, that's up to all of us, really.
