While Skip Bayless has always mentioned that he does not ‘HATE’ LeBron James, yet he has targeted the 4xNBA Champ on a regular basis. Even when the King dropped 42 points, 16 rebounds and 3 assists in his most recent Drew League appearance, Bayless decided to call him out for shooting 2-for-13 from the three-point line. On the Rich Eisen Show, the hosts went onto compliment LeBron for unapologetically ignoring his biggest critic.
On spoken off talk-show comprising of Chris Brockman, TJ Jefferson and Adam Chudwin discussed the Fox Sports analyst’s trash talk towards one of the greatest players of all time. While the debate between Michael Jordan vs LeBron James being the NBA GOAT continues to rage on, yet the 70-year-old sports media personality makes sure he never shies away from degrading Bron.
Bayless tweeted, “Love it that LeBron played in the Drew League today. But: he shot only 2-13 from three??? He missed the late free throw that would’ve at least clinched overtime? Some things never change.”
“Let’s give LeBron James props for not even acknowledging this jerk for like your entire career,” Jefferson said. “It’s probably … Skip doesn’t stop, he keeps doing it.”
Despite calling 70-year-old analyst a jerk, Jefferson did give him the props for being one of the highest-paid sports personalities on television. He added, “Skip Bayless makes $8 million a year doing that and I don’t. So maybe I should apply it and use maybe what works for him because I’d like to make $8 million a year at some point.”
Having said that, Bayless has probably earned himself the name he has today only because he has blatantly criticized LeBron day-in and day-out. On the other hand, Bron’s ignorance has made everyone feel like he probably isn’t even aware of who this critic is. Will we ever witness the Lakers superstar coming out to answer Skip. Remains to be seen.
