Twitter map shows LeBron is most 'hated' NBA player, Kyrie 2nd
Caitlyn Holroyd


LeBron James apparently has a lot of haters outside California.

A Sportsinsider.com map using geotagged Twitter data from the last month shows the Los Angeles Lakers star is the most disliked NBA player in 24 states and the most "hated" player overall. James' former teammate Kyrie Irving was the second-least popular player with 18 states.

The map is based on over 70,000 tweets, including hashtags and direct keyword phrases that mentioned disliking NBA players in each state.



Here's the full breakdown:

LeBron James: 24 states
Kyrie Irving: 18 states
James Harden: 3 states
Kevin Durant: 3 states
Russell Westbrook: 1 state
Paul George: 1 state

The real headline here is Kyrie trailing so narrowly, having 75% of LeBron's total and more than double the states targeting him as the rest of the league combined.

It's kind of irresponsible to publish this without also showing the most popular in each state. LeBron probably pulls the majority or comes second to Steph. Kyrie is not going to be on that list. Which would show his overall like/dislike net rating to be by far the worst in basketball.
 
Also, let's not look at this map the way Trump does an electoral college map. In terms of population, LeBron just needs to split his last year between the Pistons and the Knicks and then almost all the states with actual populations will love him.

California and North Dakota are not equal in any other way than each being one state with two senators! Yet this map counts their preferences equally.
 
Kyrie haters in Louisiana is probably due to the fact that old cacs in New Orleans love the Celtics for some strange ass reason.
 
Bullshit??? Why do you doubt it? Could it be because you, being a half breed defender of all things white, can't believe the people you so want to be one of couldn't hate strong black men who refuse to kiss white ass? :hmm:

White NBA fans are racist.

Black NBA fans are coons.

NBA championship rings are worthless, this pretty much proves it. No matter how many rings you win, you'll always be a nigga LeBron. You not light bright like Steph and you didn't marry white like Mike and Kobe. Fans don't need basketball reasons to hate you.

Stop downplaying the racism by saying "he's the most popular" too. :lol: He's popular because he's a sports figure people enjoy practicing White supremacy towards and using as a proxy for modern Black men.

Cacs hate LeBron because he's outspoken on racial issues. Go to any sports site and any article on LeBron, mostly cacs going in on him, always talking about he plays the race card. :smh:
I mean they do it on everything. Lebron just started endorsing Tonal and CACs all in the comments talkin bout...."I'm not getting one now" as if their fat ass was ever gonna buy one anyway
 
CACs are gonna be CACs so much that they will burn money. Lebron just did a deal with Crypto.com and here come the CACS in the comments wit their "im selling now" just dumb ignorant shit

This too...thats why they always "try" to act like they have some kind of superior intellect to black athletes, because they know they dont compare anywhere else, physically or in the wallet
