Stephen A gets paid what? 20M/year with his new deal to act like a complete assclown, make an argument personal, and threaten the arguable GOAT with physical harm?

His whole act is yelling nonstop whenever he is on TV. “Screamin’ A” is not a misnomer.

ESPN should not employ this absolute joke of an “analyst” going forward.

That Stephen A Smith boxing video LeBron posted is the first thing that came to mind when I saw SAS's tweet about him swinging at LeBron lmao :lol:

Imagine tough talking after a video like that of you is floating around on the internet.

Unfiltered Lebron is hilarious to watch.

Man has 20 years of holding his tounge on a lot of things. Hit the 40 year old man stage and his letting it be heard.

Stephen A needs to just drop this. Everyone knows he wants to talk about this as much as he can, despite what he claims. When it first happened? Sure, go nuts with it, get your views and clicks and retweets, but he's milked every reasonable drop of attention he can get out of this 'feud' and now it's starting to get sad. He's clinging to it.

Stephen A Smith is an utter clown.

Firstly, he went over the line with the whole "LeBron is failing as a parent" schtick. Was rightfully called out on that during a game, face to face by LeBron, and stood there like a sad puppy dog getting scolded by its owner.

Then, starts talking tough weeks after the fact, when we ask saw what type of man he really is when LeBron spoke to him face to face. Now says he was ready to swing on LeBron? The man is a fool, ESPN should hold him accountable.

The fact that this is a thread and we don't talk about things like what the Toronto Raptors are doing, or if the Jayson Tatum injury has any effect on Boston's chance to repeat is why Stephen A Smith makes $20 million a year

Stephen A knows controversy is what butters his bread

So why didn't you make threads about those questions?

Edit: I just made them for you. It took 20 seconds.

I have to say one thing though. Lebron did a piss poor job of making his point.

All he had to say was you're criticizing me as a father by saying i need to take my son off the court basically insinuating he's forcing him to be out there.

I know LeBron fans have been waiting years for him to do this. As he said, the media has been way too comfortable doing this gossip nonsense without consequences, so it’s nice to see them squirming right now

Broussard came out yesterday and said that LeBron was disrespecting previous eras… while this era has been picked apart and disrespected every day ad nauseam. Just a bunch of babies that can’t take what they’ve been dishing out

This is so f*cking funny, I love unhinged LeBron. Even Windhorst is catching strays. What is even funnier to me is that LeBron is going after the entire industry, and still Skip Bayless couldn't get a mention despite making a career out of hating. I know he is the one that is hurting the most right now.

I more than half-expect Skip Bayless to now say “LeBron is still dodging me”.

Stephen A Smith makes $20 million a year because he hasn't been held to any standards as a journalist for years.

LeBron is much bigger figure with much bigger fanbase, so him going at SAS is a move def worthy of attention. Obviously, LeBron is doing that mostly for personal reasons, but NBA coverage objectively needs healing and LeBron clowning SAS is a joy to witness. Based on reactions on X, people are mostly siding with LeBron in his recent tirade, so maybe that's the first step to do it.

They make too much money to be acting like clowns like this

Bit of the 'enemy of my enemy is my friend".

A lot of people watch SAS to see him take on L in debate.
