LeFather steps to Stephen A. Smith about his son. UPDATE Stephen A. Smith Responds, LeBron Confirms the reason. UPDATE: SAS Claps back!

[Moose_Greyjoy]

I’m a Bron Stan. But Bron coming off like Will Smith and it’s not a good look. Oddly enough it’s almost as if Bron can’t handle the pressure of having his seed in the league.


…..I’ve never saw the “bad father line”… if true, I disagree with my comment

 

[NYC Rebel]

LeBron son is trash and we supposed to be mad at Stephen A for speaking on it. What has Stephen A said that nobody else has said? I’m confused.

You are ignoring this

Is this it???

First….hes on a show where his voice can reach Lebron….not a messageboard full of us nobodies that you’re pretending Bron is reading.

Second, dont be on some “as a father” shyt to no man if you cant say it to his face.

Yall are some weirdos in here

You all can’t be serious.

Smith was wildly disrespectful with that “pleading with LeBron James as a father” line

Criticize Bronny on his merits as a player but don’t imply LeBron is derelict in his duties as a father

 

[ECA]

People in here cool with someone calling you a bad father ?

 

[Justise M]

As a father you should definitely step about your son.

LeBron and Stephen A both understand the politics of the game and what comes with it. The difference is that one is a father.

LeBron can handle the pressure, the criticisms, the jokes, etc:

Bronny is still a young man coming into his own who almost lost his life pursuing the thing he loves which has brought his family joy. Who knows what LeBron has seen behind the scenes concerning Bronny’s journey.

I use the race card here, as a black man, you can’t back off my son just even for a bit, brotha? The kid trying to breathe, grow and enjoy life and he barely plays? You have to act like that with him?

maybe this makes sense, maybe it doesn't but I'm gonna put it in different scenario

What SAS did essentially is give Bronny a bad performance review right? he didn't disrespect him personally just talked about how he's preformed as a professional.

If your adult son joins the workforce, works in a office somewhere, and gets a bad performance review. Do you as a black man drive up to the office and give the guy reviewer a piece of your mind? or do you let your son handle it as an adult and professional?

idk it's an interesting debate imo - the critiques bronny gets are on a national level so it does add a layer - but it's the life he choose knowing that, and he's paid a lot more than majority of kids his age so that may come with it.

He’s gonna say Miami like Jordan didn’t play in a time where if you got drafted to a team you played there till they wanted you gone and also played with multiple top 50 players of all time

Oh i thought he meant a shortcut oj entering the league and him cheating the game somehow

 

[Loose]

This is corny nikka forced his son into the league and now mad that the criticism that comes his sons way.

 

[SoSoSlick]

So LeBron gon step to everybody in the world? The view and words ain't different from what SA has said compared to anyone else with eyes.

Lebron gave First Take a week worth of material

 

[In The Zone '98]

Much ado about nothing

I simply stated an opinion/asked a question. You a weirdo fukk nikka. Calm your old ass down

 

[Lefty Gunz]

He basically called out LeBron for putting Bronny in this position, like when Bron said Bronny was better than half of the dudes in the NBA.

Stephen A actually went out of his way not to watch Bronny or speak on him until he got to the NBA. Even then, he’s barely critiqued him. Most he ever said was that he’s not an NBA player yet.

Bronny not good at basketball. Is nobody allowed to not say it

This was the whole point. Plenty of people have said something about Bronny’s game. But Stephen took it a step further questioning Bron as a father. That was the shyt that went too far for him.

 

[InstantKlassik]

His lame ass, wack ass son ain’t got no business in the league.
