Rich Paul responding to Charles Barkley and all these other analysts that say LeBron James goes to stacked teams after he choose to go to the Philadelphia sixers
Brian Windhorst with another gem about LeBron James and the Goat debate:
“Do you think one person, would believe- who thinks Jordan is ahead of LeBron would say oh he’s won with 4 different teams alright he’s #1. It’s a fake argument, nobody would ever give him credit for that. We have had 8 different champions in the last 8 years, and LeBron has been to 8 straight finals. Has anybody said oh boy he’s been to 8 straight finals he’s pretty good, no. No one has said that. Because they’ve already decided. There’s no one that’s gonna be swayed. They just want to hear your argument so they can state their argument. If they go 82-0 and win the championship, nobody that already believes Jordan is better is going to put LeBron ahead of him. It’s a fake argument, next topic.”

76ers fans haven’t said once yet “he’ll never be iverson” they’re just happy to get a great player in their franchise to help them win. Laker fans are the softest whiniest crybaby fanbase in all of sports 😂
LeBron James reportedly met with the entire Cavaliers front office in Akron in early July, but Shams chose not to report it because the meeting was off the record 😳

Brian Windhorst on Charles Barkley comments saying LeBron James stacks every team he goes to:
“Where does Charles and the legends want LeBron to go? Do they want him to go to the G League? Because if he went to Cleveland is that team stacked? Is Miami with Bam Adebayo and Giannis Antetokounmpo is that team stacked? Jokic and Jamal Murray is that team stacked? Ant Edwards, Rudy Gobert I don’t know he left Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves is that not? I don’t understand the premise of the complaint.”
