Skip Bayless continued his long-standing criticism of LeBron James, calling for him not practicing during the offseason.
Skip Bayless has built his entire career based on being critical of LeBron James. Bayless is aiming for a Los Angeles Lakers star for almost the entire career.
Bayless constantly calls LeBron that it’s not a clutch and compares him to Michael Jordan for him to get a chance.
Even when James is injured, Skip changes it negatively. No matter what he does, LeBron feels like he can’t do anything with Bayless’s eyes.
Bayless is relentlessly chasing the king during the offseason. Because he now has a major problem with LeBron’s latest court-off court interest.
LeBron James sent a congratulations to Golfar To Me Fleetwood on winning the PGA Tour Championship.
“Congratulations (salute) Tommy Fleetwood! That initial feeling is another! Especially after dealing with adversity and shortcomings.
Skip Bayless doesn’t want to let his new interest slip, so Bayless responds to Lebron James and tells him to practice shooting free throws rather than watching golf this offseason.
“LeBron: You shouldn’t be in a lab working on free throws rather than seeing your new obsession – golf?”
It’s strange that Bayless makes a harmless post about his new interest from James and uses it to dig him as ammunition. However, this has become part of the Skip Bayless Playbook.
Hilariously, Bayless later sent a message of congratulations to Fleetwood over his monumental victory.
During his career, LeBron James did an incredible job of not acknowledging Skip Bayless and his criticism. In fact, James has never spoken Bayless’s name in the media circle. Expect it to continue.
For now, LeBron James is focused on entering his 23rd NBA season while representing the La Lakers, despite the extremely uncertainty of his future with the team.
There were indications of confusion between both sides when LeBron James received the $52.6 million Lakers player option, rather than opting out and re-signing the new contract as before.
With Luka Donsic playing the role, it became clear that James is no longer a Lakers fixture. The Lakers reportedly let James walk free agency next season.
Hopefully, James and Donsic will have the opportunity to compete for the championship together, with what could be the only perfect season together as teammates.
