I don't really understand how someone could be a fan of basketball, and yet be sick of seeing Lebron play on the biggest stage. I mean he's just phenomenal. I can understand being sick of the repetition of certain narratives that go along with him, but in terms of just seeing him out there doing his thing…..how can you get sick of that? You better appreciate this man while he's still on this level, because you never know how long it's going to be before you see a player of his caliber again.

I think really, what people are truly sick of, is the level of competition - or lack thereof - in the East, and the disparity that exists between the quality of teams in the two conferences.

I'm not sick of him but I am sick of the Eastern Conference being such a gong show of mediocrity. 

The Pacers were a mediocre team. 

The Raptors have the mental toughness of a 9 year old. 

The 76ers look like they have some talent but are so young and raw that they need to be potty trained.

The Celtics played without their two best players and are a bunch of kids too.

It's a joke of a conference. Good for LeBron, but it also feels like watching a 6th grader rough up a bunch of 4th graders or something every year. Big fish in a very small pond. 

The NBA should just forget conference seeding and just seed West/East teams 1-16. No more free lunches.
