The major portion of the beef is Stephen A. Smith randomly attacking LeBron as a father. Stephen A Smith ignorantly said on a recent segment “LeBron, I’m pleading to you as a father, stop this” in a condescending manner out of left field regarding Bronny getting minutes. LeBron’s team drafting Bronny at the end of the draft puts Bronny under the microscope to be incessantly criticized by tasteless media personalities like Stephen A. Smith who hates anything LeBron. But Stephen A Smith gaslights/changes the narrative to making LeBron’s response about LeBron is #2 alltime to him to avoid accountability and apologizing for personally attacking LeBron’s fatherhood for no reason. All Stephen A Smith does is attack LeBron and other players personally. He doesn’t provide basketball insight. He thinks as a media personality that he matters more than actual NBA players. He thinks he doesn’t have to show basic respect for players he’s covering because to him it’s a privilege that he’s speaking about them and not the other way around which is the reason he’s in that position. He plays the victim after he goes over the top with personal attacks disguised as basketball coverage.
