Rooting for The King

Hey y’all,

I was wondering if you find it hard to root for LBJ/LeBron/King James due to the Warriors’ rivalry with the Cavs - and perhaps other reasons, as well, such as the boatload of hate that he receives in general. I ask because I used to be fan of LeBron and now I’m a bona fide hater (although I don’t wish to be that way for "peace and love" reasons.)

Yes, I know I refer to him by these nicknames, "crowning him" in a way that perhaps betrays the idea that I am a true LeBron hater...the truth is a bit more complicated than solely pure, unadulterated sports-hatred toward him (or maybe just hatred — I don’t know).
