LeBron changes jersey back to 23

Brandon King

LeBron James is changing his jersey number- again.  The current Lakers superstar and NBA great is changing from no. 6 to his familiar number 23, his friend and agent Rich Paul related to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin.  LeBron wore 23 for his first seven seasons with the Cavaliers from 2003-10.

Brandon King

The LeSychophants will have a new target at which to direct their perverted rancor- DeMar DeRozan.   The Chicago Bulls appeared on Serge Ibaka’s How Hungry Are You podcast and he was asked by the shot-blocking chef and host who would he choose between prime Kobe and prime Lebron. DeRozan’s response will undoubtedly frazzle many in the corps of the LeBron James Society of Apologists. “Imma be biased, I’m still answering your question. I’m biased cuz Kobe is my everything. So imma go with Kobe. I’m answering your question, I’m going with Kobe.…

Brandon King

The Denver Nuggets are in their first NBA Finals, where they will face the Miami Heat, after sweeping the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals. However that achievement has been an afterthought, as the mainstream sports media has been full steam ahead with force-feeding Lakers coverage. They have spent more time speculating on what moves this team that failed to make the Finals will make in a season that has yet to take place, than the team that made the Finals in the season that is currently happened.…

Brandon King

As great as LeBron James is, whenever his teams come up short it seems there is always an extenuating circumstances that were the cause of their defeat. The excuses, as varied and impuissant as they often are, rarely are attributed to the opponent simply being better. Cavalierly chucking teammates under the bust to cosplaying are previous and favorite tactics employed by James and his media retinue. Down 3-0 in the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers are likely on the path to postseason slaughter courtesy of the Denver Nuggets. As such,…

Brandon King

One of the incessant narratives that we have been sold when it comes to NBA great LeBron James is how he makes his teammates better. This is widely accepted as fact but I have started to question that over the past several years. The good brother 2RAW4SPORTS on YouTube explained this concisely in this video: Although they were part of championship teams with Lebron James, did playing with him make guys such as Kevin Love and Chris Bosh better basketball players? I submit to the opposite was the case because…

Shannon jokes about pouring honey on LeBron James?!?

Brandon King

I have said it on numerous occasions that there are a great many things on which I vehemently disagree with Shannon Sharpe, however it cannot be denied that the brother is all-time great football player and when it comes to talking the game he played he can provide, insightful and in-depth takes that the layman can understand. However when it comes to LeBron James, the modicum of objectivity he possesses flies right out the window. I used to think he didn’t truly believe the outlandish things he said and did…
