When James made “The Decision” in July 2010 to play for the Miami Heat, it set off a firestorm of vitriolic comments about the way in which he went about delivering the news, especially with Cleveland fans.

However, he did deliver two titles to Miami before coming back to the Cavaliers.
Jordan sparked controversy on two fronts during his career. His reluctance to enter the political fray because of the possible effect on the sales of his iconic Air Jordan shoes and his alleged gambling issues that supposedly had him connected to some unsavory individuals, resulted in negative publicity.
