When someone reaches this level of success, they sure are bound to have people rooting against them. LeBron James is no exception. LBJ has established himself as one of the best players in basketball history. While doing the same, he gathered quite a few haters along the way. Ever since he was drafted in 2003, he was called the second-coming of Michael Jordan, and that was where all the hate started. Since then, LBJ has achieved quite a few feats in his illustrious career, but nothing would get the haters to stop.

If one thinks of all the battles LeBron James has had in the Oracle Arena, there is no wonder why the Warriors fans are not big on him. From playing four Finals in a trot to beating the 2016 Warriors at the Oracle itself, LBJ has given the Warriors fans all the reason to not like him.

Recently the Lakers’ star shared a throwback tweet of him getting booed at the Oracle Arena. However, the era is not what one would imagine. It is all the way back in 2004 when a rookie LeBron was playing his first game at the arena.
