ESPN been having this same debate since i was 14. I turn 31 in July
Only ESPN could take ONE SENTENCE from a multi page article and stretch that into two different segments lol
He has a problem with LeBron saying that he gets negatively talked about more than MJ but then he immediately starts to speak negatively about LeBron lol
Man I wish Unc was still on First Take, just for this segment.😑
Three people with the same viewpoint doesn’t make for an objective conversation
The first mistake is asking SAS. 😂
Max Kellerman was right. These guys just wanna disagree just to disagree for the sake of nothing.
Stephen A literally never fails to prove someone's point
“…until that last line…” No, you aint even have an issue with that last line, but you gotta find something to critique, huh Steven A. Yall are ridiculous…
Stephen A says Lebron is insulted when he says Lebrons #2 but Stephen A takes it more personal when someone has MJ #2
My BIGGEST issue with Stephen A is that he himself acts like he never takes things a step to far and personal. Not even just with Lebron but multiple athletes as well and he's often obtuse on purpose
Are we really gonna pretend that LBJ hasn't been more unfairly criticized than any other athlete ever? Really?
Did SA actually say “💩” on TV?🤣🤣🤣🤣
We got curse words on ESPN before GTA 🎉
Stephen A Smith: "It was never about his son, because I'm not the one that was talking about him." “I am pleading with LeBron James as a father: Stop this,” Smith said on “First Take” the following day. “Stop this. We all know that Bronny James is in the NBA because of his dad.” - March 10, 2025
This comment section finna prove Bron’s point in 3 2 1 ….
The irony. The ones arguing why 2, 3, or 4 all time isn’t a bad thing are the same ones calling it blasphemous to speak of mj as anything less. 😅
You ever notice that nobody gets emotional if you say someone like Kareem or Magic is the GOAT? Interesting.
Bron literally said "i hope made him proud...wearing no. 23." And all yall can talk about is the one sentence yall chose to turn into a negative. Man o man.
U realize 6 rings takes more than 1 player although he did a lot of contributing u need to win as a team
