But let’s move man let’s let’s let’s move to Stephen A Smith uh uh you know yesterday when he talked about the podcast and we going to get into the podcast uh JJ reick and um and LeBron James on the next uh segment that podcast is called my uh mind the game

Right and this podcast is supposed to be them sitting down and having these two like minds they both think of themselves as sickos that’s JJ reddit’s favorite word for anybody who really loves basketball and who loves enough to study it and loves it enough to watch old games current games high school games

College games like if you really like basketball this is what he calls a sicko right and uh I guess this is something unique to I guess being a sicko is something new and now it’s not a lot of sickos out there there’s sickos who didn’t even

Make it the to to college for for whatever reason like it’s like it’s not only professionals that’s watching you know uh uh excessive amount of basketball right but he wants to be rewarded and uh and given his special title for he wants to be a savan sio but

You know now they get together for this podcast and uh we supposed to be impressed and um Stephen A Smith said something real interesting I’mma let y’all hear it but having said all of that let me be the first to say LeBron James was a little bit slick here too brilliantly slick I

Might add because he could have had that conversation on uninterrupted he could have been talking to mavick Carter he could have been talking to Rich Paul he could have been talking to his cruel boys but he chose to do this with JJ reck who is JJ reck one of the great

Shooters in the history of the game who had a 15year plus career in the NBA who is now a color commentator a part of the a team with Mike green and Daris Burke on ABC and ESPN games who’s also a contributor to my daytime job first tap

Along with other shows not to mention the fact he’s got his own podcast the old man in the three which is very popular so what happens is when you get with somebody like a JJ who knows the game who’s a brilliant basketball mind but could be a bit truculent or a seric

At times when somebody he believes is ignorant is in his face talking about the game to have a voice like that serves LeBron in a multitude of ways because it provides him cover from the regular discourse that would serve to criticize or Sully his name in any

Way because he don’t want to do it he believes that’s beneath him so he got with somebody that’ll do it for him not to say that’s what JJ signed on for not to say that’s what JJ is about I’m just saying that JJ knows the game and he is

Quick to check anybody who thinks they know stuff they don’t know about the game of basketball it’s a brilliant move on LeBron James part very slick and it will work like heaven against everybody except me it won’t work when you go out on that wing and you jacking

Up shots you don’t need to jack up or you hesitant about getting to the free throw line or you choosing to sh shoot a Fall Away jump shot instead of taking it to the hole and being that man amongst boys that you are JJ ain’t gonna be able to help you

There no matter what he says but it is a brilliant idea and everybody should want to watch JJ reick with LeBron James so he said that this was a brilliant move by LeBron James because he’s using JJ reick and he mentioned some things JJ

Reick is on the 18 for I don’t know what he call games for ESPN ABC one of those networks he’s calling games he’s up there with Doris Burke and all that stuff he’s rolls up the ranks right he has a regular spot on ESPN’s First Take

He has his own podcast and Media company so you know his voice is going to be out there his voice is going to be calling games his voice is going to be uh uh analyzing the game the next morning on ESPN First Take uh he’s going to be on the

Playoffs um and he’s got his own podcast the you know with millions of followers that also hear his voice so LeBron James the way he has gibber arenus somehow in his pocket you know uh he he’s friended giber Arenas now giber Arenas feels uh Fair indebted to him and

He won’t allow any LeBron slender to to go down like when they start when Rashad M was on uh G Arena’s podcast uh gills Arena a couple of a couple of days ago and they was talking about the EP stuff with LeBron James G arenus came out of nowhere and

Was like oh you don’t want to go there cuz we can bring up Michael Jordan and then he started accusing Michael Jordan of the same stuff like I don’t understand why when people uh bring up something or critique a player or bring up something that you hey look this is

This is a red flag the the go-to move for people especially people who are supporting LeBron is the let me find out what player you like and then let me put him under the same scrutiny somehow or misery loves company uh if if you say this player did this and you’re

Critiquing him let me find when the player that you might like did it and then let’s and let’s and let’s uh cow tie them together so when when they talked about the LeBron stuff Gib Ren was like nope we ain’t talking about we gonna talk about Jordan doing it I just

Don’t get that but this this is what you have when you have alliances with voices and platforms right and how do you get those alliances well in in the case of Nick Wright you just sign him to your your agency clutch Sports Nick Wright is forever indebted now he gets invited to

All the parties you know uh he gets all the you know free gear and all that stuff and what who who God knows what else he get there’s a rumor that Shannon sharp uh is affiliated with clutch Sports I don’t know if he signed to him

But uh uh we know he’s Affiliated so when you get when you get guys like that and we know the Ty K kid Perkins and Shannon sharp was arguing on on on first take earlier or late last week about who who supports LeBron the most that was

Arguing about who glazes this man the most I I I never forget when when I was a kid and I got three older sisters and my dad used to work uh from sun up to sun down he come home tired he work construction he come home

Tired 8:30 at night you know he been gone since 5 in the morning he come home 8:30 at night with these big boots on always had mud all on the boots and big old boots and he was so tired that he couldn’t even take his own boots off and

My sisters used to race to the living room because it’s three of them but it’s only two boots to take off and they used to fight over who get to take off dad’s boots right that’s that’s that’s how much they wanted to help my dad out you

Know and we appreciated what he did for us right but here you got two grown men on national TV fighting over who’s taking off LeBron’s boots they’re fighting over who takes his boots off the best I don’t understand that they was literally fighting Kendrick Perkin said

You just got on this LeBron train uh I’ve been here since we played a basketball together I’ve been here since 01 he was bragging about it these are the type of people that these are the type of people that we dealing with man bragging about it these are two grown

Men and you know Shannon talk with that lisp you know I mean I ain’t never seen no dude by this tongue like that when he say somebody name I seen some some girls do it you know I I know some girls that was sweet on me that bite their tongue

When they say my name you know you know but I ain’t never seen no dude by his tongue when he say LeBron name or when he say skip I’ve I’ve never seen that so I I mean I’m not saying there some funny business going on I’m just saying it’s very weird Behavior but

Nonetheless all of these dudes or voices for LeBron he’s got ties with them and what Stephen A Smith was implying is oh now he got JJ Reddit but it ain’t now he got JJ Reddit he’s been had JJ Reddit because they probably been talking about

This for a while anyway but JJ reick has been fighting for LeBron for about two or three years now fighting all his battles even the battles that JJ rdick fights about protecting this era of basketball and clowning the era of basketball before us right 70s 80s 90s you know Bob Koozie

Had to come out and cuss him out Dominique Wilkins had to come out and cuss him out uh Michael Cooper had to come out and cuss him out I’ve did videos on this y’all can just go search the videos of of uh Rick Barry Bob Koozie um Dominique Wilkins and uh

Michael kooper all had to come out and clown and and just put JJ rdick you know back in his place because he was clowning Larry Bird saying he wasn’t a great three-point shooter because his percentages was 33% we know R bird was a great three-point shooter what are you talking

About JJ R like you’re an idiot man so uh and but the only reason why he really protects this era of basketball because it further helps him protect LeBron so they’ve already been in Allegiance now it’s out in the opening they got a podcast together and all this podcast is

Doing is trying to show everyone how smart they both are right so I get to that part but uh I do want to say this one thing so Stephen A Smith was talking about now LeBron has a hug of voice because Perkins is not that smart Shannon sharp has already been

Singing to LeBron Tes for a long time but he’s a football player and he’s not going to be calling no basketball games right uh Nick Wright never played the sport so this is the best Alliance he could have formed he got JJ now ESPN put JJ up at the top

We’re going to be hearing JJ voice a lot this is the best guy he can get with to help push his agenda and to further keep talking about him and and and great respects and and LeBron deserved to be talked about in great respects don’t get

Me wrong uh but we know what we know what JJ Rd is about to do with this is this about to be a lot of meat glazing a lot of glazing right so um Stephen A Smith is spot on right but I do want to play this one thing uh uh

JJ Reddit was interviewing um what is my man name uh Austin Reeves y’all remember this meme when Austin Reeds was in the game you see the score down there it’s a blowout right two minutes left but this meme came from LeBron James telling him something in his ear and he made the

Craziest face in the world like he was confused and I remember the people out on in the post game saying that LeBron James must have told him a play in his ear that confused him like hell and and they just was bragging about how smart

LeBron was and how high his IQ was and all this stuff right and um that’s what everybody thought right it like you know we all thought that LeBron just confused this kid because he was a rookie that year we all thought that LeBron confused

This kid so bad that he just I mean he must have been shocked like man how the heck does this man have this much knowledge in his head that’s the look that he was given and that’s what we all assume but when JJ Reddit asked him and

This was JJ reddit’s opportunity to meet glaze LeBron a little bit more but he was shocked by what Austin re said man listen to this you’re a true sicko in all aspects um before we let you leave we we I I don’t know the answer to this you probably talked about this publicly

But the the gift the the video of uh Lebron and you where he said something in your ear and you have just the most incredible reaction what what did he what did he say to you uh so we were in we were in brookin and the game was over we were up

25 and Coach called a time out and Drew up a play and you know how it is you’re up 25 some people might not be listening some were staring somewhere else and uh especially that year it was my rookie year like I said I asked a million question so I

Never so I knew exactly what I was doing so he draws up the play and as I’m walking out I’m like Frank I’m I wasn’t doing anything I was standing on the left wing not literally not moving and I just had to make sure and so I’m walking on the court and me

Being me I asked Braun again I was like I ain’t doing am I like I’m just chilling he was like no you he I think he got mine and Russ’s spot backwards okay so he thought where I was supposed to be where Russ was supposed

To be and he was like no you’re coming over the top and then setting the back screen and I’m just looking at him like I don’t I don’t think so but I was just like oh God and then literally when I did it I was that’s gonna be I go get my

Phone after the game and my phone was fully charged and I look and it was on like 5% it was just blowing up I was like oh no that’s amazing uh Austin hey man he was so shocked man he just ended the show he a had no followup question he

Just no follow-up question let’s just end the show thank you for coming Austin River he really thought he was about to get a LeBron superhero story right there because that’s what we all thought even I thought that I was like man I don’t know what LeBron told that dude but he

Got spooked he must have was like he must have threw some dag on uh jargon at him he ain’t even heard before and now we find out no LeBron was confused LeBron LeBron was the one that was confused he got the play roong JJ r at backfire he thought he thought he was

About to meet glaze him and Austin Reed was like no I knew what I you know I was just trying to confirm hey man I’m just I’m just in the corner right n you BL now now you getting me mixed up with Russell and that’s not what I’m doing

That I’m over here right you know I mean so LeBron was wrong JJ Reddit didn’t he didn’t he didn’t really like that wasn’t what he was expecting right I go on the comment section and I just wanted to see what uh you know what the fans was

Saying right the the comment that JJ rdit pinned is hilarious now JJ rdit is a prick and a and and a borderline narcissist and and a condescending uh type of dude but he’s also funny and he’s a he’s a good guy I like if I met

Him I I think we we would hang out and we you know it would be a good conversation right but so when he pain this conversation or this comment I know it was in humor but this is how delusional the fans are he they didn’t even want to

Receive the fact that LeBron was wrong this man at the top of the look at the comment this pin he’s lying my L glorious King wouldn’t make such a mistake bro he said my look glorious king would not make such a mistake man I’m they only want to accept it when they when

It’s clear and like when people come out and say it they still don’t believe it like I I I refuse to believe that and it look it sounds like a joke but that’s how the fans are um you know uh Lebron tweeted today you know how did y’all

Like the first episode of the podcast you don’t even want to read those comments them things was X-rated I mean it was my king that’s how that’s how they started out my king these are men my king it was on some Coming to America type stuff the way they was talking to

Him in the comment section go look it go go on LeBron’s Twitter and look at the Tweet where he asked what y’all think about the podcast and read them joints I man man my phone almost uh exploded that’s how hot my phone it was xrated I look I tried to man I

Unfollowed them on face on uh on on Twitter that that I’m telling you the way they was in that comment section was Unreal it was unreal man but yeah uh that backfired on him so uh let’s get into the let’s get into the podcast and

I’m I’m I’m G say a couple more things and play another sound bike uh and then I’m open the fin F lines because I want to hear what y’all want to uh want to say about it
