“LeBron James Doesn’t Get Held Accountable?”: Former NBA Star Dumbfounded By Kwame Brown’s “Stupid” Take

LeBron James has been a topic of controversy for over two decades now. A litany of narratives have been built up against him over the years with the most recent being he isn’t held ‘accountable’ for leaving the game worse than he found it. This was propagated by Kwame Brown which was immediately laughed at by Theo Pinson and Raymond Felton.

“He’s just a hater,” said Pinson. “All I saw was a guy stuck on ‘stupid’. Because that just made no sense whatsoever. LeBron James doesn’t get held accountable?” continued the former Nets star. Clearly, he was dumbfounded by this take as he flat out rejected any part of what Brown said.

“Talking about the most- the person that people talk crazy about the most on all outlets that I’ve seen. They kill this man [James] all the time,” said Felton.

James has been able to dominate NBA defenses simply off of his own merit. Whether it was 25 straight points against the ‘suffocating’ Pistons defense in the Playoffs back in 2007 or him notching 30-point triple doubles in 2024 as a 39-year-old, James has adapted to what the game has demanded from him.

Kwame has gone at LeBron before

This isn’t the first time Kwame has gone at James. Prior to the start of the 2024-25 season, he called him out for not developing parts of his game.

“The old school players wouldn’t have any trouble with LeBron because, at 39, he should have developed a mid-range and a post-game, and he still hasn’t yet.”
