1984 Draft -
1. Akeem Olajuwon
2. Sam Bowie
3. Michael Jordan
Michael had high expectations coming out of college, but not expectations like LeBron has, not even close. Also, the NBA was completely different in the 1980s than it is today. Produce TODAY or hit the bricks. Michael got a 6 year "honeymoon" that Lebron won't get. Lebron will only get hype if he produces. I also doubt Nike paid 90mil for a couple years and out... they expect rings and quick, or their long term investment is a loser. They want a many year MJ or Tiger Woods style player... I hope Lebron can really carry an organization like Cleveland on his shoulders, and soon.
