Social Media Calls Out LeBron James For Blatantly Lying (VIDEO)

LeBron James is easily one of the best NBA players that has ever graced the Earth.

For as great as he is, he has always had a problem with stretching the truth. Some would even say that he lies quite a bit about things that aren’t even lie-worthy.

 

Such was the case on Sunday.

 

While speaking to reporters Sunday hours before the all-star game, LeBron stated how unsure he was that he wanted to end his career with a farewell tour.

 

“I’m 50-50,” he said. “I’m going to be honest. There are times I feel like I owe it to my fans who have been along this journey for two decades-plus, to be able to give them that moment, where it’s every city, and they give you your flowers or whatever the case may be. That seems cool, but the other side: I’ve never been that great with accepting praise. It’s a weird feeling for me. I’ve never really talked about it much.

“It’s just a weird feeling for me,” he added in a rare moment of vulnerability. “To go to each city, if that’s the case — I’ve seen Michael [Jordan]’s, I’ve seen Kobe [Bryant]’s, I’ve seen a lot of guys’ [farewell tour] — I just don’t know how I’d feel. I don’t know if I’d feel great about it. Maybe the only child in me. I don’t know.”

Fans immediately called him out for the praise part.

The 2024 NBA All-Star Game will take place in Indianapolis, Indiana. James will become the first player to ever play in 20 All-Star Games.

He can make history as he needs just three defensive rebounds to pass Hall of Famer Tim Duncan (98) for the most in All-Star Game history.

The 39-year-old has All-Star Game career averages of 22.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per contest.

Despite his age, James still remains a top-ten player in the NBA and is averaging 24.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, 7.8 assists, and 1.3 steals per contest while shooting 52.0% from the field.
