Lol cause he didn't know why. It's not really our business why but he was making noise because the reasons weren't disclosed. Then it turns out he was resting his foot.
He does this every week... and ya'll point it out in the comments every week. And engage every week. As much as he is a "Clown" so are ya'll. It is what it is. Everybody is a clown.

Him and Perkins fell out
@@snagginbirdies1006ur gosh retired mode season multiple Times bro he had way less miles on him bro took no years off since he was 18 and half is career was going to nba finals as well
Michael Jordan said in 2003 that he was determined to play every single game in his last season…he did. Lebron said the same thing and he’s missed multiple games by christmas. Jordan the goat.
If there’s any player in the league who deserves time off it’s lebron. I don’t even gotta name all his accomplishments. I don’t even need to mention him being the oldest or the load he has at his age. We just know lebron can take a break if he wants to
This is nonsense. lol For one, SAS has always been this way. But he has also said crazier stuff about LeBron while Shannon was present. Ya'll project and assume so much, with no evidence. lol If I was to also assume then I would be more willing to bet he got some phone calls from Klutch Sports. People don't really talk about it, but LeBron has an insane amount of influence within sports media. Just in the past year a lot of sports analysts have signed to Klutch. LeBron will be able to spin whatever narratives he wants post career, even more than he already has. Which he has a lot. So that is FAR more plausible than SAS simply being afraid of Shannon. lol
And exhausted from what? Half his games been at home playing the same teams multiple times and it's not like he's playing defense. If the dude is tired already in December, he just needs to retire, so the fans can get their league back.
By saying he's deserved the right in cuddling these players.. you're just enabling them to continue to do the same thing that's killing the ratings. Check up 3-pointers don't play defense and don't play back-to-backs is basically saying F you to the fans. What do I know.. my opinion doesn't matter apparently anymore
Well how many players have the deserved the right their is only two players and that’s LeBron and Steph curry two faces of the NBA multiple championships between them both But they are still not better than MJ 😂😂
sas so phony man. he literally pressed shams about it being more to it cause they called it personal reasons now he acting like he wasnt making it a big deal
Stop acting like that’s funny. That’s been said a million times before and is inaccurate. The Lakers will make a trade and it will be a big one. Mark my words!
Why compare?....No one will miss that old meat in the sandwich.Anyway, We need something fresh, mayo with a little herbs, or Nutella with the brown bread for a change.
Even if MJ did take two weeks off during the holiday for example he is and would still be ranked number one but don’t you think the second greatest basketball player of all time (LeBron) has won championships multiple MVP has the right and earned that privilege of taking time off Steph could do the same No one else in the league could take time off accept for those two
Yeah cuz he took whole year breaks in his career there reason he only has 15 seasons In his Miles lebron in year 21 in high pace era in the hard conf dude deserve a break he took advtange of the nba cup off and like 2 or 3 games
Molly comparing herself to the second greatest basketball player of all time is disgustingly disrespectful Their two players in the league who could take two weeks off and no should say a word and that’s LeBron and Steph curry everyone else has not earned that right
@@sybilwalker3058 Haven't been watching basketball, been watching Lebron who does a staggering amount of not playing basketball while he's on the court.

Doctor B.O. Stankenbreff here. First and foremost, congrats to Stephen A. on taking down Kenna Smiff (Barkley pronunciation) at the charity stripe. Next up. Lebron's rest cycle is like taking anti-cholesterol pills: you can take a little bit now, or a lot later.
@ so for drama not actual reasons for losing or winning basketball games, if ingram recorded Dejontae Murray talking about his cheating and it went public (not saying it happened) they’d get coverage to🤷♂️🤣🤣🤣
The Lakers were relevant BEFORE and will be AFTER LeBron. This isn't CLEVELAND. The Lakers are one of the most popular teams not just in the NBA but in sports period. They are one of the oldest teams in the league, one of biggest markets and have won the 2nd most championships after Boston. They're always going to be talked about. LeBron went over there for that exact reason, to ride on the Lakers legacy because he's a frontrunner and wanted be like his boy Diddy "all up in the videos", riding on others talents and name. Ya'll still don't know how LeBron operate. It's so obvious. The Lakers will be fine without LeBron, it's LeBron who will have the problem not being in the limelight outside the NBA. That's why he still hanging around the league and the longer the stays, the more he will wear out his welcome.
Steven A can’t decide if he wants to criticise LeBron or not. Can’t help but wonder if a certain Rich Paul gives him a call after broadcasts to set him straight and achieve a complete turnaround
“It doesn’t set the right precedent “ Molly “ He deserves it” Molly… 🤦🏾 so basically the lakers lied about why LeBron was out., so he just needed time off but as usual make an excuse for the REAL REASON., “ we can’t really tell them why., bc it might not look right” soo if it don’t look right then why are you doing it? That’s the question..,
This is why viewership is down in the NBA because the media is ok with LeBron taking time off and not others, what’s good for the geese is good for the gander, if he can’t play all the games then retire the Lakers are not winning no championship he’s just stat padding, and he wasn’t injured at all.
You're delusional. So the viewership wasnt down when he was playing? He only missed the last 2 games. What's the difference between LeBron missing games for whatever er reason compared to COUNTLESS other stars and players being out due to injury? What of Embiid saying no back to backs for the rest of his career ? You just have a thing about putting things solely on LeBron. You're a secret fan 😂
The difference is they’re saying it’s ok for him to do it did you read anything I said, if your going to say it’s ok for him to cherry pick games then it’s good for everyone else, just because your 40 years old doesn’t give you a pass to miss games if that’s the case then retire instead of padding your stats, because the Lakers are not winning anything. Nobody wants to watch a league were this type of behavior is excepted.
AD had a blow out game but they're talking about LeBron!!! If im AD I'm asking for a trade! Stephen A. changes side like he changes drawers! LeBron can take "time off" if he publicly admits that he's not in the GOAT conversation.
Customers pay for tickets to possibly see him play. What about them? MJ and Kobe had fansin mind every time they played. I saw Kobe play only once in his career in Indianapolis on the road. I bought the ticket to see HIM. Just before that game he had a SEVERE ankle injury. Guess what he did? He played the entire first quarter. Training staff suggested he sit out, but he felt the obligation to let us fans see him play in person. If it’s an age thing, nobody is asking you to stay dude. The team isn’t benefitting from him being there. His stats aren’t leading to wins, he is a huge liability on defense, turns the ball over more than anyone EVER and his presence has always taken away from teammates using their own gifts and developing. PLEASE RETIRE LEBRON!
Did Molly just compare herself to LeBron James? Delusional. If she takes a break off from this show, I guarantee you people would actually be OK with that.
Omg! SAS needs to be ashamed of himself. The other day, he was alluding to LBJ taking time off due to the Jay Z situation. This dude has zero credibility.
Why does he deserve it (the break)? This is THE JOB. This is what he signed up for this past offseason with this roster as-is. Being 40 is no excuse when signing for that kind of money. You adjust your minutes or come off the bench to compensate that's ego though. He can still go but he can no longer compete; this is all wasted motion. LBJ can't be gone soon enough.
That's like saying the old man who been working at the company for 40 years says he needs a little rest . you gon have a problem with that ? It's a shame that the most conditioned and in shape player on the team is that same old man so yea he does deserve it, when you devote that much time into something ppl won't bat an eye if you were to take a break cmon now its level to this you gotta understand
I'm a Lakers fan and I have to ask why are we talking about Bron and not AD? If we're going to talk about lebron let's talk about his turnovers and his trashbag defense.
Stephen A was alluding to LeBrons absence being suspicious. If you watch the podcast, he covers the P.diddy case. He wants people to connect LeBron to Diddy subtly.
LOL........ It's so stupid how y'all get so mad that he might believe he is better than MJ. Like y'all really be MAD!!! LIKE YOU KNOW THESE PEOPLE!!! Why shouldn't he feel HE IS THE BEST EVER!!! You are telling a Man how he should feel about HIMSELF!!! BYTCH PLEASE!!!
I’m confused just last week dude was grilling Shams now he acknowledges that maybe the 40 year old he’s done more for the game than anybody outside of MJ, deserves to take a lil time.
AD had 40 points 16 rebounds But we not gone talk about that lol

His stats aren’t leading to wins, he is a huge liability on defense, turns the ball over more than anyone EVER and his presence has always taken away from teammates using their own gifts and developing. PLEASE RETIRE LEBRON!
Did Molly just compare herself to LeBron James? Delusional. If she takes a break off from this show, I guarantee you people would actually be OK with that.
Yes 😂 women never understand how crazy they sound
i can safely say that we wont be a making a big deal if Molly was to take a few days off work. she won’t be missed
steph, KD, and Bron have earned the right to take time off
And this is why the NBA is losing viewers. People go to see the stars ply. NBA needs give refunds back if stars decide not to play.
...again talking about the same thing. No wonder the NBA is losing viewership.
Stephen A is a fanboy ridiculous he was bitching he disappeared! Now he needs rest! How many years when he was young did he play 82! 2 Lechumps!
Omg! SAS needs to be ashamed of himself. The other day, he was alluding to LBJ taking time off due to the Jay Z situation. This dude has zero credibility.
Why does he deserve it (the break)? This is THE JOB. This is what he signed up for this past offseason with this roster as-is. Being 40 is no excuse when signing for that kind of money. You adjust your minutes or come off the bench to compensate that's ego though. He can still go but he can no longer compete; this is all wasted motion. LBJ can't be gone soon enough.
Stop pocket watching
Same way mj took years off because of his gambling addiction
🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
That's like saying the old man who been working at the company for 40 years says he needs a little rest . you gon have a problem with that ? It's a shame that the most conditioned and in shape player on the team is that same old man so yea he does deserve it, when you devote that much time into something ppl won't bat an eye if you were to take a break cmon now its level to this you gotta understand
@ If he gets three chips on the other side of his break, I’ll completely understand.🤷🏽♂️
Molly needs to be moe aware of the stuff she says, why is she even comparing herself to Lebrons situation
Laker fans want Bron to take a more permanent break
Molly kilt this dress!
I'm a Lakers fan and I have to ask why are we talking about Bron and not AD? If we're going to talk about lebron let's talk about his turnovers and his trashbag defense.
Hey MJ took YEARS off. Why can’t LeBron take a few games off?
molly on her place in side bets on both parties 😂😂😂
Covington called bron out, that’s why he’s silent and not playing js..
Stephen A look like he investigating the YSL Rico
Molly please retire from First Take 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Stephen A was alluding to LeBrons absence being suspicious. If you watch the podcast, he covers the P.diddy case. He wants people to connect LeBron to Diddy subtly.
KD also came back and scored 30 and 8 assists 🤷🏽♂️
This lebum will never ever get close to touch MJ SHOE LACES ❗️he should retire already if he wants out of LA that he forced take his son
LOL........
It's so stupid how y'all get so mad that he might believe he is better than MJ. Like y'all really be MAD!!! LIKE YOU KNOW THESE PEOPLE!!!
Why shouldn't he feel HE IS THE BEST EVER!!!
You are telling a Man how he should feel about HIMSELF!!!
BYTCH PLEASE!!!
I’m confused just last week dude was grilling Shams now he acknowledges that maybe the 40 year old he’s done more for the game than anybody outside of MJ, deserves to take a lil time.
