“LeBron James demands that everybody bow down to him. He demands everybody on his team acknowledge that he is The King and if you aren’t willing to do that, then he tries to put all his henchmen out there to make you look like the bad guy.”
With ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith dropping the gossip bomb of the summer Tuesday alleging that LeBron James wants to ‘beat Kyrie Irving’s ass’ for Irving’s public desires to abandon Cleveland to rid himself of LBJ’s overbearing reign, Clay Travis mocked ‘The King’ for once again turning the docile NBA offseason into an episode of ‘Monday Night Raw’.
Travis says the tabloid story sums up the personality of LeBron, as a fake tough guy who can’t possibly live with himself if he has to deal with a trace of internal turmoil.
“LeBron James is insulted because he believes he is the Alpha Dog and he wants everybody else on that team to acknowledge that they are a beta and that they’re willing to do whatever LeBron James says,” Travis said. “You’re a grown ass man, you’re almost old enough to be President, and you’re threatening to beat someone's ass because he doesn’t want to play on your basketball team anymore? This is like the kid in kickball trying to take the ball and go home in your neighborhood because he was losing.”
Travis joked that the Warriors have driven the rest of the league to insanity and it's bringing out LeBron’s true colors, as his frustrations of possibly never winning another title are mounting.
“If you are LeBron James and you are threatening to beat somebody up at the age of 33, you’re a loser and a bully,” he said. “Is there anything more ridiculous than having your friend tell somebody else that if you see them you might beat their ass? LeBron James has rabbit ears and this is perfect evidence of it.”
