MJ actually did mess up on some of the "biggest games of his career" at the time. looking back, those games don't stand out anymore because he's proven himself now.
i agree, when you're the star player you get the best of the praise and the worst of criticism. comes with the territory and the paycheck.
but really, honestly..... it's a team game. period

That's what gets me about this. It's not like an individual sport like say golf when Phil Mickelson couldn't win a major for the life of him...there's no getting around that it was Phil not doing as well when it counted more (though some womanizer named Tiger existing didn't help either). Look at ANY team sport and you'll find superstars without a ring because they've been on a team of losers.
I couldn't care less about Lebron as I barely even follow basketball, but it just seems silly to harp on him for not yet winning a championship when he's probably got 10-12 years left to do it at the very least.
