LeBron James -- Most Valuable Loser

Overcompensation -- noun -- excessive reaction to a feeling of inferiority, guilt, or inadequacy leading to an exaggerated attempt to overcome the feeling ... especially when someone expected to win the NBA championship doesn't even make the finals.

LeBron James: Click to watch
LeBron James rocked this egotistical t-shirt during a shopping break in N.Y. yesterday.

For the record -- you won't see Kobe Bryant wearing a shirt with his individual accomplishments plastered on the front of it during his championship parade today -- he's gonna let the trophy do the talking.

61. "For the record -- you won't see Kobe Bryant wearing a shirt with his individual accomplishments plastered on the front of it during his championship parade today -- he's gonna let the trophy do the talking."

AHAHAHAHAHA- TMZ you f'n suck and know nothing about sports. Did you see the shirt Kobe wore to the parade? Of course, Kobe has cemented his reputation over the years as one of the NBA's most humble stawarts. No one could have seen this coming. For the record, YOU'RE AN IDIOT, and you let your reporting do the talking.

62. Erin, dumbass, the difference between the two shirts is that Kobe's shirt is representing TEAM accomplishments whereas Lebron's is INDIVIDUAL accomplishments. Get with thye program, honey

63. 'Erin is dumb'- You're just wrong. The shirt represents indivual accomplishment. I'm pretty sure Derek Fisher was the only player on the Lakers for all four championships. And don't say it was about the Lakers franchise winning 4 titles. Your opinion is wrong. Shut up and keep your misinformed opinion to yourself

67. why you people can give lebron a break, he's not doing anything bad, please he's just wearing a T-SHIRT and the shirt isn't telling anything false its true he's the mvp, and if he wants to wear that shirt or make a movie about how good is he, that's his business, it's LEBRON JAMES he can do whatever he wants.
And why you dont talk about how kobe always is saying that he's the best and wearing t-shirt about his 4 rings, ah, that is worst cause he isn't the best no matter how many times he wants to tell the world, he's always crying like a baby every play that he can't score, that's not be the best, the game 2 of the final series lal vs orl, that game hedo block to kobe a pass and they say that it was a foul, for god, kobe have to reconize that it was a block so kobe doesn't deserve ahve that 4 ring

68. what a f@cking jackass...did you enjoy your early vacation from the nba queen james??

69. It wouldn't be a big deal to me if LeBron didn't say when he won MVP that he didn't care about winning MVP and he didn't care about individual accomplishments, which he did.

If you didn't care, why wear a sure flaunting your accomplishment that you didn't care about less then a month ago?

70. If you are a Clevland Cavs fan and you still think its cool that he is in NY shopping, well you might want to remember this day. Because as soon as he can leave the Cavs, he will jump ship like it is a plague infested sinking trash barge. He has absolutely no class at all. He is a spoiled little brat. The King of Losers. He should change his name to Court Jester.

71. I'm not a racist, but this article expresses how lame whites are..

Wow @ comment #4 by Cory.. ''i accepted that he has 4 kids out of wedlock''

LMAOOO! So it's to the point where people are judged for having children while not being married? Wow.. who are you again? God? LMAOOOO, White ppl are soooo hilarious

and then theres the idiots who continue acting like Kobe raped that white girl when they find another man's semen, and different strands of pubic hairs in her panties.. NEITHER BEING KOBE'S!

How delusional the white society is.. they hate seeing the black man win

72. I like the conversation about what if kobie had done this , it would of been considered one of the most douchbag things ever. I like to remind everybody Kobie has done the most douchbag thing ever. Or things if you count the rape incident. But the topic is not t shirts but NICKNAMES. Kobie gave himself the nickname of BLACK MAMBA. You do not give yourself a nickname. You receive a nickname. So worst than putting on a t shirt saying you are a league MVP, Is giving yourself your own nickname. Did Ted Williams give himself " Splendid Splinter" ? Did George Herman Ruth give himself the name The Babe or Sultan of Swat? Did Malone give himself the nickname of The Mailman? I guess you can put Sean Combs above Kobie cause he's given himself several nicknames and can't settle on just one.

73. Lebron is a poor sport he wont shake anybodies hand like he did when the majic killed them and he wont show his tape of him getting dunked on. Are u kiddin me u got dunked on o wow everyone has Jordan has Kobe has Karl Malone has. Lebron will be lucky to win 2 championships if he wants to win one he has to come out of cleveland. Plus people who compare lebron to kobe are idiots i mean take it this way 4 rings 0 rings 15 time championship team Cleveland hasnt had one of there teams win anything. So how is lebron better and kobes so called rape incident he won so y do u still hate on him. Atleast kobe showed up to the press conference unlike lebron with his u dont shake someones hand who just beat u up this isnt the streets The mvp trophy must be nice but to bring a championship to you and your city and 4 rings on your finger is way better thab ab mvp and rookie of the year award
