    The problem that is being addressed is LeBron’s record in the NBA finals. Even though it is not the best record he still made it to the finals. He made it as far as he possibly could, he made it to the last level he just did not complete it. It applies to life because people love to see people lose, but hate to see people win. People love to hate on LeBron because he is good at what he does. People give him no credit for making it to the finals all they do is talk about how he has lost. Even though LeBron has won, people look at how many he has lost. The meme is kind of viewed in the world's perspective; they view the negatives more than the positives. People view LeBron as a cry-baby wanna be Michael Jordan who is not clutch and runs away from defeat. People do not view LeBron as a great father, role model for kids, actor, has his own school, helped donate money for multiple kids to go to college, and one of the greatest NBA players of all time. It is kind of how life is, no matter how good you do people are always going to look at the bad or remind you of your past. At times, LeBron was playing 1 on 5 on some of the teams he had. He was a one man team going up against dynasties. He was doing all he could and people made fun of him for losing. Funny thing is when LeBron wins people stay quiet or try to make an excuse saying someone saved him. Nobody looks at how he led the finals in every single stat and how he had arguably the greatest play of all time in NBA finals history. They look at how one of his teammates made a shot to help save him. The meme to me is just how life is. No matter how successful you are, people are going to try to bring you down because of something they do not have that you have. I am not talking about material things either, people can be jealous of you because of your personality, energy, positivity, and how you stand tall at all times. LeBron has played 18 seasons in the NBA. LeBron has lost multiple times and has not given up. LeBron keeps coming back every year standing taller than the year before. It is similar to life because how hard life hits you gotta keep going and get back up, it is not what happens to you it is how you respond to your situations.
