The Primary Disadvantage of Having LeBron James on Your Team 

You may want this guy, but there are situations wherein you won't

If there are two words to describe LeBron James, those words must be "game changer". But there are descriptions which can make you doubt the so-called "King". Most basketball analysts describe him as a flopper. Now, for all those wondering out there, what is a flopper? A flopper (in basketball) is someone who exhibits exaggerating gestures in order to trick the referee into calling his opponent's act a foul. Sadly, I have also seen James flopping numerous times during his tenure with the Miami Heat. In the NBA, flopping is prohibited because it is an act of cheating. Once a player is caught flopping, he will be given a warning and will be fined by the NBA.  In LeBron's case, flopping is part of his routine in every game because it gives his team more chances of winning. But in my opinion, LeBron must be a fair and just athlete because most of the basketball fanatics around the earth idolize him. Not only that, he has won 4 MVP's and 2 Finals MVP's. Plus, he is a 10-time All-Star, meaning he has been selected by his fans all around the world to play for the All-Star Game. If he is indeed a bona fide superstar, then he must be honest in everything he does as an athlete and avoid flopping because I'm sure he doesn't want his reputation to be ruined by his critics.
