ESPN First Take Commentator Stephen A. Smith reignites the Los Angeles Lakers small forward LeBron James feud. Smith says LeBron cannot stat pad his way into being the GOAT.
Stephen A Smith on LeBron James and the Lakers: “We don’t look at the Lakers and see a championship team… They’re not beating Oklahoma City. They’re not beating Denver… [Stat padding] doesn’t buy [LeBron] GOAT status.”
The Selective Outrage of Stephen A. Smith
The Stephen A tour on how LeBron broke his heart is getting annoying. Sports commentators have made it their business to chase ratings and impressions vs educating and providing insight on the game.
He had New York maZohran Mamdani on his show last week and did not bring up his displeasure about Mamdani saying to defund the police. Just like the LeBron situation, he talks behind anybody’s back, thinking nobody will notice.
Authenticity Over Everything
Pat McAfee is outperforming Stephen A Smith in an authentic and effortless manner. Despite frequently mentioning them, SAS has never landed interviews with LeBron or Trump on his show.
This is the same person that straight-up lied about LeBron not attending Kobe Bryant’s memorial. LeBron truly lives in his head.
