Generates buzz, which in turn becomes income for them, so why shouldn’t they do it? This is a business, have you forgotten about this part?👀

The longer he plays, the likelier the chance is that he’s gonna get on that poster. But who will it be? Anthony Edwards? Jeremy Grant?? Saddiq Bey?? Brandon Miller???

LeBron will either defend it because he’s there on time, foul the guy mid air, or not challenge for it. He avoids getting dunked on as much as possible. He once famously got dunked on by a high school player at one of his camps and together with Nike tried to get the tape scrubbed until they realised how that was more embarrassing than the dunk itself (which wasn’t even that bad).

@Matt G No, it came out after a lot of backlash for even trying to get it scrubbed

I bet many players are going to try & dunk on Victor Wembanyama and try to give him a “Welcome to the NBA” moment.

MJ will always be better than Lebron but these two examples aren’t good ones. (1) No one cares about dunking on a guard, and (2) that worked out terrible for that clown Dillon Brooks. I’m actually surprised they want to dunk on Lebron since half of the time he just watches the opposing player.

Casuals are so funny LeBron was literally top10 in playoff defensive win shares and defensive rating through the conference finals on a bad foot.

Legler ain’t lying, no way Lebron allows that, that’s he can only do chase down blocks coz the conventional one is too risky for his ego. Giannis is the only superstar who does not mind getting humiliated like that

LeBrick said he needed offseason surgery. Did the LeBrick of feet say different?

That would require him to play defense, which he stopped doing after 2016.

@Young King since you asked Jaylen Brown, JD, Victor Oladipo, Ja Morant, Evan Turner, Paul George, Malcolm Brogdon, KCP, Amar’e Stoudemire, Valencunas, Steven Adams, Jrue Holiday, Nic Claxton, Al Harrington, Melo, Caron Butler, Courtney Lee, Danny Granger, Jason Maxiell, Yao Ming, and Ramon Sessions. Do you need anymore ? geez I’m a NBA encyclopedia. LeBron has played 20 seasons in the NBA you’re going to get dunked on there’s no way around it.

Add this to the “GOAT” “conversation”.

Don’t you find it weird that draft prospects have never said they “look up to LeBron” even PG13 is the goat to Brandon Miller 😂 everybody hates Leflop even the younger generation

Do more research on who they have as the GOAT and trust me – it’s not Kobe.

June 28, 2023 at 4:29 pm
Is Lebron gonna have the tape confiscated again if it happens? 😂😂😂
Seriously though it’s weird to go after Lebron for a dunk. They should want to dunk on Wenbayama. Lebron is older now and isn’t even a rim protector like that. Put the big men on a poster!

Dunked on by a High school kid and confiscated the tape 🤡🤡🤡
