What's with LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith's feud?
If you're a newbie or someone who's out of loop with the NBA news, the LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith's feud began when Stephen said that LeBron should stop promoting Bronny James as a decent NBA player when he's actually not that good and the Bronny James is just in the NBA because of his dad.
Of course, LeBron James' fatherly instinct is to protect his son, so during the game against the New York Knicks, he talked to Stephen A. Smith and asked Stephen A. Smith to keep Bronny's name out of his mouth because his kid doesn't deserve the lashings that he's getting.
Hopefully, LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith will talk it out so that their relationship will not be strained in the future.
Trending
It takes guts to be a father and to confront your son's critique. Good thing for Bronny, his dad is LeBron James, who prioritizes and protects his family first—making him do whatever he needs to do just so that his kids won't experience all the hate and bashing that he experienced when he was younger (and even until now).
