Nothing makes Skip Bayless lose his mind than the subject of LeBron James. Whatever James does or says, expect Bayless to come up with a scathing comment attacking the four-time MVP right after.
On Tuesday, Bayless once again saw an opportunity to criticize James, as he absolutely went scorched earth on Twitter, metaphorically screaming at the top of his lungs on social media over the Cleveland Cavaliers superstar’s ejection during a game against the Miami Heat.
Skip Bayless, however, forgot to verify his facts, as James wasn’t ejected in the fourth quarter. Rather, he was thrown out in the third.
The “Skip and Shannon: Undisputed” show host also accused LeBron James of trying to pad his stats even when games are headed for a blowout finish. The problem with what Bayless was saying is that even if James made it a point not to be overly aggressive in the second half, Bayless would certainly find a way to dress down the former No. 1 overall pick for not being clutch enough. Essentially speaking, Bayless is trying to put James in a Catch-22 situation, though the latter certainly doesn’t care about the former’s opinion.
For those who didn’t catch it, LeBron James gave referee Kane Fitzgerald a little too much lip service after not getting a foul call in a driving play against the Heat, forcing Fitzgerald to send James out of the game. It was James’ first ejection in his NBA career.
