Stephen A. Smith's clapback to the comments calling him racist for saying 'Lakers three of its top player are WHITE can't win a championship
saying that I should not have said what I said and they call it racist and all of this other stuff. I don't want to hear that. I'm not backing up one bit. This is about basketball. We're talking basketball.
What I said, and I'm going to reiterate this again, is when have we seen a team with three of its top players who happen to be white delivering a championship? Can we talk basketball? 'Cause that's what I'm talking about. I'm talking basketball.
Colin Cowherd "Jalen Brown is a "DISEASE' where he suddenly thinks he’s the smartest guy in every single room he walks into"
So, Brad Stevens—the GM—is really getting crushed right now. It sounds like they basically want Jaylen Brown out of the building. And I had two different sources in the NBA tonight, an executive and a scout, who told me the same thing: Jaylen seems to have caught this 'disease' where he suddenly thinks he’s the smartest guy in every single room he walks into.

Nick Wright Slams Unappreciative Lakers Fans for LeBron Hate🤯
The Lakers had missed the playoffs 10 times since they were in Minneapolis, and 5 of those 10 were the 5 years immediately preceding LeBron arriving. And LeBron did what he did when he went to Miami, took a team that was out of the playoffs, they won a title in year 2. Cleveland, a team that was out of the playoffs, they won a title in year 2. Did the same thing with the Lakers.
Paul Pierce expresses doubt that winning another championship at this stage of his career would significantly enhance LeBron James’ legacy.
"MICHAEL JORDAN IS ALWAYS THE ONE HIS THE GOAT"
"You know, I mean, I don't know if he can add to his legacy anywhere else, or what he can possibly do, because wherever he goes, he probably won't be the guy. And so, if he wins a championship somewhere else, it doesn't elevate what he's already accomplished. You know what I'm saying?"
"Even if he wins one in Cleveland?"
"Well, yeah. Even if he wins one in Cleveland, it's not going to be the same as winning one in Miami, winning one for LA, because he was the guy. You know? It doesn't put him in the same category as..."
"He might be number two, though."
"Well, regardless, it's not the number one. You know, when we start talking about when it's done and the comparisons with Mike, because we're always going to do that. Let's just keep it 100. Mike was always the one. Wherever he went, he won as the one. So, if LeBron has four or five championships—four of them as the one, and one as the two—that's going to get brought up in the GOAT conversations.
Stephen A Smith say Lebron felt somewhat disrespected by the Lakers due to the lack of appreciation.
Some way, somehow, some way for whatever reason, he felt somewhat disrespected. Now how accurate that is, I'm in no position to say. I can only tell you what I've been told. He felt somewhat disrespected, where there was a lack of appreciation for what he brought to the table. And the quickness with which they transitioned to the Luka era... although it makes sense, because he's a superstar basketball player in the NBA with global iconic appeal, who can give you 35 a night anytime he wants. The fact is is that he's a defensive liability, and on top of that, even though LeBron James totally understands it being the Luka era, the quickness with which it transpired and the dismissiveness associated with him because of it, can be a turnoff.
