Stephen A. Smith says LeBron James was lying his a** off when he was talking about thinking about retiring: “I don’t believe that for one second. That’s the only part of that statement that I think he’s full of it. I don’t believe it for one second. LeBron James... wants to play 25 years in the NBA. He wants to do a quarter century. That’s why he signed that two-year deal. Even though he got a player option, that’s why he signed a two-year deal. He wants to play 25 years. And he wants to win because if LeBron James win, A, he will have surpassed Steph Curry as a four-time champion. He will have tied Kobe Bryant and Tim Duncan with five. And we all know if he wins over the next two years who he will tie then if he pulls it off, right? It will be Michael Jordan.” (Via Stephen A Smith)show more

Stephen A. Smith says LeBron's goal is to play 25 seasons and get within one ring of Michael Jordan before he retires "The opportunity for him to catch Kobe and Tim Duncan to surpass Steph Curry to pull within one of capturing Jordan" "I believe LeBron entering his 24th season, his whole goal is to play a quarter century" "If he could position himself to be in the finals over the next two years and to possibly capture a sixth ring, definitely a fifth, but possibly a sixth, he can't stay out west" "It has to be Cleveland"

JR Smith says LeBron James is an 18-handicap golfer and will become a scratch golfer within 3 years of retiring “I would say the moment he hangs up that jersey, I give LeBron three years before he's a scratch. I’m taking that bet. Right now, he's probably an 18” “He has all of the gadgets. He has everything” “That's another thing, he’s not a gearhead. So he's going to be consistent with his clubs. And he's got every coach in the world who wants to coach him. He can play for the rest of his life if he wanted to”

Stephen A Smith says the biggest issue with LeBron going to Miami, is Pat Riley would get all the credit if they win a championship: “If LeBron James goes to Miami and helps them win in Miami, Pat Riley gets the credit. It’s Pat that went out and got Giannis and then LeBron… the champion is the executive that’s pulled it off again in his 80s.., LeBron is just the latest player he acquired to help elevate their franchise and the Pat Riley mystique. If you know anything about LeBron, he prides himself on being more than that.” (Via Stephen A Smith(

Earvin “Magic” Johnson says LeBron James has a little Michael Jordan, a lot of Magic, and carried Cleveland teams that had no business reaching the NBA Finals “He’s between both of us. He’s got a little Jordan and a lot of me.” “The great thing about LeBron, he brings it every single night for 20 years.” “Those Cleveland teams, he had to bring it.” “He put them on his back. That’s hard.” “He did that and took them to the Finals.” “They clearly didn’t have enough talent to be in the NBA Finals.” “They had no business in the NBA Finals.” “That’s why he’s remarkable. That’s why he’s special.”

Stephen A. Smith ranks the New York Knicks the best option for LeBron James next season: “Now, I understand that it’s emotional. I know that. But what I’m thinking about when it comes to the New York Knicks is two things. If you don’t win the title this year, again, you don’t have to give up anybody for LeBron James to join the squad. He can come there as a free agent. By the way, the money ain’t going to matter to him because that’s James Dolan he’d be playing for. That man going to make him an additional billion dollars. LeBron is not Kyrie Irving and KD. He ain’t passing up being associated with the Knick brand to be in Brooklyn, New York. He gonna be with the Knicks. That’s the brand that will easily enable LeBron to pocket an additional half a billion dollars. And the New York Knicks would be the favorites to come out the East their damn selves. And then you got LeBron with Brunson with OG with Karl-Anthony Towns. You got them in a position to be four games away from the chip.” (Via Stephen A Smith)

Pat Riley on LeBron James 👀 “As far as the 24 year veteran that is something that would happen organically. I hope I’m not talking out of both sides of my mouth here but you never know that you’re ever going to win a title until you win one. But you’ll never win one if you don’t have the talent and the coaching to do it… he knows what he wants. He knows what he has to do.”

Shannon Sharpe says this just goes to show you if LeBron James was on a team and he was the number one option, this is what he’d be doing: “Think about it, he gave you 27 and 6 as a third option. Imagine if he’s the first option or even the second option because remember last year as the second option he gave you 24. He gave you 24. He gave you 24.9, 7 or 24, 8 and 7 as the number two option. So just imagine if he’s the number one option, he still could do it.” (Via Nightcap)

Stephen A. Smith on what it does to LeBron James legacy if he loses this series after being up 3-0: “I don’t think it will happen. But what if LeBron James and his Lakers surrender this 3-0 lead and lose this series? What will we make of his legacy then? Do you believe it should even have an imprint on his legacy? Age 41, 23rd season in the NBA. No, Luka just got Austin Reaves back. Ain’t even supposed to be in this position. And at 41 years of age in his 23rd season, he’s been balling. He just looked flat last night. But what are we to make of it? Inquiring minds want to know. Because if you think for one second that’s not going to be held against his legacy, surrendering a 3-0 lead, y’all got your head in the sand.” (Via Stephen A Smith)
