Former No. 1 overall pick Kwame Brown blasted LeBron James in a bizarre rant following the Lakers’ season-ending loss to the Denver Nuggets on Monday.
Brown’s diatribe centered around James’ inability to get a shot up on the final possession of Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals Monday. LeBron drove to the basket with his team down two in the final seconds, only to be turned away by Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon, who executed a perfect double team and blocked James’ last attempt.
“I have never seen a guy of your caliber, supposed caliber, you don’t even get a shot off?” Brown said. “You’re probably the best scorer in the game, you got all these points. But you were looking for a bailout, again.”
“Throughout history, the little nerds are gonna look up your statline and say ‘He’s gotta be the greatest player to ever play the game’. And people who actually play are gonna know that is bulls**t”

Brown called James a “stat-sheet junkie” also said if he owned a LeBron jersey, it would be “on fire right now.” He later contended that Kobe Bryant would have won the game.
NBA fans don’t seem to be taking Brown’s opinion too seriously though.
“Kwame got a little taste of attention a few years ago and since then he been shooting videos from inside his truck every day. You just gotta let him howl and the moon and not pay him no mind,” one commenter said.

“It has been said and is worth saying again. Kwame Brown is a bona fide scrub a dub dub. He should be the last one to speak on LeBron,” another user asserted.

“Kwame Brown giving a lecture to LeBron James on greatness with “Ether” playing in the background is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on this website,” said former Lost Lettermen founder Jim Weber.

Despite the criticism from fans, we know Kwame will be back with some more takes in the future.
We also know whatever he had to say about LeBron does not matter one bit.
