I just watched this interview on CBS, very inspirational. Hard work does pay off and he is being smart about how to market himself while he is still young. Success doesn’t come easy. With Jay-Z as his mentor, it’s game over.

The first billion dollar athlete! It’s time to come up!

the first billion athlete huh…this is why your damn country is in a situation its in. youve got most people suffering while 1 man is stacking is cake. Thats capitalism for you !! too bad the world is in a recession, we’re feeling this shit here in canada too but at least the divide between middle class/poor and the rich is not as high. we care about our society; fuck capitalism !!!
dudes wanna complain about “the rich getting richer while the poor getting poorer”; most of the time they associate this quote with corporations. what about a nigga like michael jordan huh? this nigga has been caking for YEAARS, he’s rich as fuck; his brand is popular as hell too, can someone explain to me why this bitch nigga has to sell his kick for $200? this is another example of the rich getting richer while the poor’s getting poorer, this bitch nigga is exploiting us; ive never bought a pair of Jordans in my life and I never will, this nigga as rich as he may be doesn’t have to rape consumers up the ass like that. Look at stephon marbury, this dude used to have a shoe line that sold UNDER $10 becuz he cared for his community, he wanted poor kids to have shoes to play with, im not even making this up, google it if you want. Bitchass MJ on the other hand could care less about inner city kids; he just wants to make as much money as possible. FUCK THAT NIGGA!!

good interview.. how you not gone know what sports illustrated is back in 2002?.. It was barely in it’s prime.

Lebron thinking about becoming the first billion dollar athlete?.. what?.. Jordan or Tiger Woods aint even worth that much.. Lebron has barely even touched the surface when it comes to that type of global appeal or face of the sport in itself.

In fact let me be clear, ” Lebron is not the face of the NBA.”

the nba wants to market lebron james as the best player on earth. however, that will not happen until mr.kobe bryant retires. right now, kobe is the best, no questions asked.

the reason lebron has better stats is because he has the damn ball in his hands 90% of the time. his jumper is still ugly and inconsistent; even dwyane wade is better than lebron currently. lebron has a team mentality because he can’t shoot the ball lmao.

@#2. i wouldn’t say lebron was a hardworker. it was more like the game was fun and easy for him. anyone would give up academically studying and just play sports all day long as a dream focus. it is not hard if you have the talent and physicality

There are so many great talented athletes that never makest all the way because they don’t work as hard as they should. Lebron is and has always been a hardworker. Talent can only take you so far…the most important thing is hardwork. Lebron is blessed with great talent but without the hardwork he would’t be where he is today. Toconstantly push your body to the limit over and over again years after years that’s not easy at all even if you have the talent and the physical part.

Normally people come on here and say very dumb stuff but the guy who said “Lebron has a team mentality because he can’t shoot the ball” is DEAD ON. I would pass more often too if I couldn’t shoot worth a lick.

Don’t get me wrong, the guy is nice but the media hype and his skills don’t quite add up. At least not to me.

you people are insane.. if you really watch dude play ball and talk the shit yall talking rite now u niggas jus dont wtf u talkin about.. hands down most talented athlete in the world.. ill admit he could improve his jumper and FT shooting but thats about it.. plays the game smart, tremendous size and speed, great rebounding ability.. incredible passer, defense is coming around and he is only 24 years old.. If he signs onto a major team in a major city such as NY LA or Chicago. He will become the richest player to ever play a sport. But he will ultimately retire the best overall basketball player ever. And he seems to be incredibly smart in the sense he doesnt act like a “ni**er”. He is a smart humble properly raised african american male. not a fkin dumb cars cash hoes dumb ass 8 kids by 7 women black piece of shit like most of these dumb athletes who go broke after 1 or 2 years out the league. He seems to be a smart dude with alot of sense. This is coming from a black dude btw no racist shit. suck on that

WHOA! There is a lot of hate on here. Tho Kobe is the best right now, and Wade is just incredible, you cant shit on Lebron(who will win mvp). THIS DUDE IS 24! He hasn’t even hit his peek yet. Stop kidding yourself, dude is the NBA.

ps
@ vigorous
I hear u loud and clear, but bottom line is companies like Nike are in business to make $$$. @ the end day the problem is not with them, it’s us. WE SHOULDN’T BE BUYING THINGS WE CAN’T AFFORD POINT BLANK…………..

Fuck the lebron haters LBJ is the best in the nba kobe 2nd. im a big MJ fan but lebron is pushing him right to number 2 on my all time list maybe because im only 20 and i didnt see MJ as much as LBJ and you guys cant be madd im just keeping it real most kids say jordan is alltime number one but they never really ever seen him play and thats why i say LBJ is todays jordan im not saying he plays like jordan but he is the face of the NBA like jordan.

P.s people need to stop talking about his 3pt shot when MJ was only shooting 23% from 3 when he was 24 LBJ is on 30+

Jordan is the best of all time….Kobe is the best right now. But Kobe is not going to improve more. He has reached his peak and he’s one hellava player. LBJ is not even in his prime yet. Give him a couple of more years and we’ll see just how great he is going to be. We haven’t seen the bet of LBJ but once he’ll reach his top then I have a feeling he could be the best of all time.

MJ is G.O.AT. of course, but MJ never won without scottie pippen. actually, the year after MJ retired, scottie led the bulls to the playoffs with a better record overall. does this actually tell you how good MJ was? Or perhaps his team was just too damn good? Or even perhaps, he was so hyped by commericals and all his fancy highlights? Anyone remember how he did with the wizards? lol

Lebron is in the situation of michael pre-1990: scottie pippen-less. once he gets that go-to second guy, then i will believe in greatness to come. (Mo Williams ain’t it)

To all the people that say lebron will be the greatest, you can never say that unless it does happen. Anything unforseeable can happen in the near future. Eg. Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill, Penny Hardaway
