The Lebron Mafia

A group of fans of Lebron James who defend everything he does and believe he doesn't have one blemish on his NBA resume. As a result they will aggressively tear down every other players accomplishments to make Lebron appear better. Often major hypocrisy and goal post shifting is used when The Lebron Mafia defend him.

You will find The Lebron Mafia on twitter and the Youtube comment sections.
You can find them saying:
- praise him because of his stat line in a loss. (but in a win stats are irrelevant).
- proclaim him not having enough help in a loss. (Yet ignoring all other stars going against the same teams that don't get that same defense).
- shitting on all his all star teammates for not playing well. (When they usually sacrifice their game to allow his to flourish)
- claiming he made the "right basketball play" in a late game situation. (Even when a better play could have been created).
- Posting biased stats showing Lebron against other all time and current great player. (While hiding all the other stats where the other player's stats are better).
- Claiming Lebron beat the "Greatest team of all time" Warriors in 2016. (but like to forget the 2016 Warriors didn't have Durant and actually the 2017 Warriors were the greatest team of all time).

... and so on.

Major players in the Lebron Mafia are: Nick Wright, Shannon Sharpe and Beau Russell.

John: Hey, I can't believe Lebron passed on that driving layup at the end of the game when he could gotten to the line. I mean no one can stop him.

James: He made the right basketball play! You can't blame him!
John: How is passing to a teammate, 2 seconds left to shoot a contested 3, the right play?
James: But look at his stat line, if he had more help they would have won the game ages ago. No one else has to play against this level of competition!!!
John: Oh sorry, I didn't realize you were apart of The Lebron Mafia. I shouldn't have said anything.
