American sports columnist Skip Bayless was seen taking a dig at Bronny James, son of NBA megastar and LA Lakers’ franchise player LeBron James. This is not the first time he has been involved with the James family. 17-year-old Bronny set the world on fire with his massive ‘right-handed’ dunk while playing for the California Club team in the AXE Euro Tour games in Paris.
Skip Bayless seems to have had a fierce rivalry with the 38-year-old Lakers star LeBron James for quite a long time. Many rumors have also been going around that James has not texted back to Bayless in 15 years. Well, is this a rumor or a fact that is yet to be decided. The amount of hatred Skip has towards James is beyond compare. And taking this rivalry to the next level, he was now seen commenting on his son, Bronny. After him tweeting out his reaction for the monstrous dunk, he was shocked to witness the criticism around it even though it was a compliment as he recently revealed it out on “UnDisputed” sitting alongside Shannon Sharpe.
Skip Bayless: “Hey, Bronny… impressive. But your dad would’ve dunked it left-handed. You sure got away with it, though”
In some way, he couldn’t understand the repercussions of his statement and was confounded for his fresh take. All the NBA fans across the globe have termed Skip to be the most extensive critique of Lebron James, and now it seems that he wants to continue this legacy with his 17-year-old son by becoming a generational hater. He was suggesting young Bronny to dunk left-handed just like his father does, when he fiercely dunked with his right hand in the tour games, just a few inches away from the teeth of his defender.
Skip Bayless: “When this took off, I look back, and I said I didn’t intend this as criticism; I intended it as a commentary on what I saw”
Skip Bayless is known for his commentary on the show ‘First Take’ on ESPN2 which he left in 2016 and is currently working for Fox Sports and has made his career and assets by criticizing the LA Lakers superstar stating that he is nowhere close to NBA G.O.A.T Michael Jordon and that James has only hampered the sport of basketball. So this time he again tried to shield himself down by trying to shut-down the criticism he is getting for his take on Bronny James. As he defended himself in the recent segment of his show.
