However you shouldn't subscribe to preconceived notions regarding me or any other poster, why they agree or disagree with anything. It shows a lack of debating skills on your part and smugness to boot.

You may doubt the players have time to watch many other games, but thats an assumption. Again I don't know that, and neither do you. Also it seems you are calling LBJ a liar as well, since he made a public statement that he's watched Kobe all year. Seems kind of arrogant of you , don't you think ?
This is hilarious, what are you talking about ? I never preconceived anything about you, maybe it's your complex that you think that everyone assumes that you are not taken serious because you are 23AJ ? I do not, because if I did I wouldn't answer to you, but whatever.

It's not an assumption, I have heard numerous players talking about the weariness to watch other games. I guess if you travel almost on a daily basis, play and dedicate your life to basketball you need some time to get away from it, it's simple as that. If they were basketball 24/7 junkies they would get crazy pretty soon. Also, where did I say that Lebron is liar ? It's his opinion and I have no problem with that because it's plausible, however there have also been players making a case for Paul, Lebron and Garnett. Does this mean they shouldn't be taken into account because their opinions aren't worth the same ?
