LeBron is the greatest player I have ever seen but he helped stop a strike this season. https://twitter.com/nba/status/1335644099739791363
LeBron is a great player and does good things in his community - but even geniuses can be held accountable.
Y’all love Bron. He’s cool. Don’t think he handled the work stoppage correctly. He voted to leave and then him and other older players called President Obama and then decided to come back. He’s great but makes decisions that a rich person would make.

Those don’t lead movements.
Obama comes on The Shop, Bron’s TV show in case you didn’t know, and he talks about “plans of action.”

Which is cool, but the plan of action that Obama would say, isn’t the one that hold the NBA owners and Adam Silver accountable, it’s the one that would offend people the least.
Whether Bron knows that or is just genuinely calling a “friend” is something that we don’t know, but I think you are lying to yourselves if you think he handled that moment with the same level of action that the moment could have called for.
