LeBron James Wants His “Damn Respect” After Leading Lakers To 17th NBA Championship

Source: Mike Ehrmann / Getty Job finished. The Los Angeles Lakers won their record-tieing 17th NBA championship. After completing the task, LeBron James had something to say. Love him or hate him, LeBron James is the world’s greatest basketball player right now in his 17th season, which is a testament to his greatness. The man has lived in the playoffs and NBA Finals consistently, yet we still take what he does yearly for granted. The fact that people consistently hate on him (looking at you, Skip Bayless) doesn’t elude him at all due to him rarely addressing his naysayers. He usually just waits for the perfect moment to give them the attention they beg for. Following securing his fourth NBA championship and NBA Finals MVP, Bron didn’t hold no punches during his speech and demand respect f...

Source: AAron Ontiveroz/MediaNews Group/The Denver Post via Getty Images / Getty LeBron James is just like the rest of us, fed the f*ck up and frustrated following Wednesday’s (Sept.24) horrendous decision in the Breonna Taylor case.
