- On The Stephen A. Smith Show, Smith gives you his renowned point of view, breaking barriers beyond the world of sports, and tackling pertinent issues across entertainment, pop culture, society, business, and politics. Three times a week, you'll hear his LIVE unfiltered opinions on the day's biggest headlines as well as straight-shooting interviews with top celebrities, game-changers, and thought leaders across the societal arena.
The Stephen A. Smith Show is sure to entertain, inform, and motivate anyone who tunes in.
It's ironic that his first tech is because he was "complaining" about a foul call. And then his 2nd tech is him getting mad about Lebron "complaining" about a foul call.
I guess to Ime Udoka, he is the only one in the world who has the right to complain.
Did u watch the game?
@@justinezekwe4305did you?
His words was still ment for James even though he didn’t call his name come on man even a kid knows that to stop making excuses for this coach
@princemjbp695, you hit it right on the nail! 🙌👍👍
Bron would've been called soft either way. Had Bron folded him, he would've been soft for doing it lol.
Facts
Lol
Bron wouldn't have folded nothing
@@muhammedking3963 Udoko would've tanked it?
I love how y’all love to delusionally assume LeBron James can fight just because of his size when he’s probably never thrown a punch a day in his life. Plus he’s had a good boy image to uphold for the last 21 years. There’s nothing intimidating about him honestly…
We don’t want theater and drama in sports. We want fair and competitive games.
I love Unc’s pettiness I’m just like him
Unc stay petty so he doesn't have get petty
He got bars 😂
Bruh no real mans letting that word be attached to them in any way shape or form...unless you're an actual bitch.
Gay.
@@uncleb7821 That's for letting us know your preference...even though no one asked.🤷🏾♂️
Cap... that ain't no soft spot. If you gonna talk ish win the game. Also, is he going to say that to every team? His first statement was to the Lakers team because he said they were b-tchin about calls. Every single team and every player b-tches about calls including his team... that includes MJ, the Bulls and all of the old school teams. I am 50... I remember. That is what is so stupid about what he said. They all do it.
It's almost always cap with SAS whenever he talks about Lebron. Like how is he going to legit say who is Lebron to come over there to the coach, instead of saying who is this coach talking from the sidelines about the oposing teams players acting like bi**hes. As if this is normal coaching etiquette to just casually do that. It'd be almost weird not to directly address that especially as a true professional and the captian/leader the team. SAS oftentimes shows clownlike behavior when talking about players. And, then he wonders why so many players entered his lane in the media and have their own podcast now. The players don't respect that clownlike behavior and SAS twisting the narrative. His whole stance on the situation is the Lebron shouldn't of approached the coach to address that bs he was spewing from the sidelines. Great take SAS🙄
@@user-ce9hb1eh1h Excellent take especially like the coaching etiquette. It was definitely uncalled for. Bron went over there to say we are all men here you need to chill with calling us that. Coaches are never supposed to address the other teams players.
Soft as charmin
@uncleb7821 Soft as Charmin but a champion, one of the greatest of all time and leading scorer in NBA history. Some things are an impossibility and soft and those accomplishments are one of them.
MJ didn't need b-tchin, he had a golden spoon from the start
Everyone skipping over Ime saying “soft a*s boy” that’s disrespectful to a grown man. He gotta know better as a coach
Really!! “ Soft lil boy” is worse than the B**ch or P***y. Let’s stop acting like LeBron has never called anyone a B**ch! I’ll give you a free one Joakim Noah.
Chill bro it's just Coach talk
You obviously never played ball past high school... if you knew the talk that go on between coaches and players it would be techs every night
@@JamaalSTL he said past highschool goofy
SOFT
He said I go to the basement. Hahahaha
Lol Shay say sometime I go to hell LOL
😂
So wait.... we have been calling Bron soft for not going at people and not having a killer instinct but we STILL call him soft when someone directly or indirectly call him the B word. MJ went at Van Gundy for saying he cozies up to his friends before games just so he can get an edge over them when they play? Just dont make sense anymore to me.
So when LeBron use the B word it’s okay. And he has called other players the B word.
i found lebron james burner account.@@lyndaharris6263
@@lyndaharris6263 Never. Show the tape. He almost fought Draymond for calling him the B word
@@dlkc2000 bron never almost faught anyone. And he in yr 21. Stop with the bullshit
Jordan fans change the narrative so much they don't know what make sense anymore
Would this be the same energy if it was a white coach? Would they grill the coach if he was white?
Fanboys mad cause Udoka pulled his card
BIG FACTS
How is calling somebody soft while hundreds of cameras on, behind the refs and his players pulling somebody card ?
@@chuckEdopemovesSigh, it doesn’t change what is said is the point dude. There are ton of men in the same situations in sports, life in general etc where soft was never used. Calling a man soft is one of the worst things you can say to another male because it’s not what a male is. Therefore, if you’re called soft, it means it’s true. Geez dude, 🤦🏾♂️.
@@SonGoku-yb3zmSo judging by your point if someone was to pull up on you and call you soft then it has to be true that makes zero sense and you clearly put no thought behind that y'all really get on here and just say anything to fit your personal biases
@@tripbless2063. Missed the point entirely. 1, lol, saying it's a personal bias is a typical low IQ argument. I have no personal stake in this my guy. Ime and Lebron hold no weight in my life to be biased. 2, I was speaking objectively. So, I'll say this again and if you don't get it. Convo over. Soft is not a term that men throw around loosely because males biologically are the opposite of soft. Therefore, because males don't like to look stupid in a fight, use what most think. You not agreeing with Lbj being soft, Ime being on camera(besides the point) doesn't dispute fact but that's why you're not getting it. Going back to your first comment, you read and think with your feelings instead of you using actual thought processing, lol.
😂😂😂 I Feel you Shannon. To the basement I go ...
Hahaha did you all want LeBron to do? To punch him? Bron was just talking to the guy peacefully and Stephen a Smith still finds a problem with it. STEPHEN A SMITH will always find an issue with LeBron do. ALWAYS
Exactly to act like a black man can't approach a person calmly and speak with them is insulting but it's Stephen A. We don't expect much sense out of him anymore.
Stephen A the way you throw punches you need to stop talking greasy like you got hands.
The world just hate greatness it’s sickening 🙏🏾
😏 So, Udoka just became great 🤔
Stephen A you a soft a Boy.......How that feel.........
SAS is adding a whole lot of interpretation to what Ime Udoka said. There is a such thing as saying something the wrong thing. Didn't we recently go through a whole period of coach backlash because they are saying things they shouldn't be saying to grown men, even young men? I'm just saying...
Man up
sticks & stones
"Stop whining", "Stop crying", "Cry baby", all the same thing. "Stop btchn" same thing. Heck Sailors, Marines, soldiers, say worse things to each other.
@@DreamReleasesand to me you a b*tch if you let a man call you that 😂😂
Ime had no complaints when they blew the lakers out not to long ago lol bro was in his feelings 😂
Honestly, this is an L for SA. Calling someone a b-word and saying they're acting like a b-word is the same damn thing!!!
😂You wrong!
Shit said that to a woman it’s over with lol
2 different meaning😂
Shannon is such a gobbler for Lebron
Lebron soft as charmin...
Unless you would say that to his face with no security you shouldn't say it online
@@tripbless2063 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I agree he shouldn't have been tossed but simply separated by the refs.
Still, for Stephen A. to act like a guy should be able to use that language and not expect anyone to say anything to him is BS.
Also to act like a black man approaching you in a calm manner just talking to you is confrontational is horseshyt. Like a lot of people black and white Stephen A. should know that. He and Ime acting like it is is the opposite of tough.
The reason he was tossed, was because he had an earlier tech.
LeBron ain’t no Killa
No he’s not genius. He’s a billionaire dummy. Lmao 😂
What team WON THE GAME! Case closed.❤
Typical white boy response... taking the high road...you take the high road only till the shit hits your feet
It was just a little back n forth... the media wants to squeeze this lemon to the peel. Come on now!
SAS is becoming like Wendy Williams now.....messy and full of gossip? Thank GOD for Bob Costas 🙏
Yea for real,I don't like this setup i like the personal one on one with the mic on the table,This whole studio late night show thing,Dude got the big head like he gona be something outside of sports
He’s literally always been the Wendy Williams of sports talk, my guy. For fucks sake, the dude is on General Hospital
If he would have told us what he said ,people would have said he was snitching
Stephen needs to cut the BS coach was wild disrespectful! Always someone not being disrespected want to tell someone who's disrespected how to feel and act towards it when they would've done something similar or worse if it happened to them! Stephen A needs to cut the bs 💯
You need to be saying “WHO IS IME” not who is Lebron!
Omg SAS if it was Mj he would say you dont talk to a grown man like that. Thats killer mentality he is not afraid to talk to the coach an bla bla bla. It must fell so bad for the mj goat believers. What ever lebron does SAS and other will say its not the right thing.
lol exactly what the comment above said, MJ fans change the narrative so much they can’t keep up with their own bs 😂
Lebron did walk over to Ime. I like how Ime handle himself with Lebron. He shouldn't have been ejected.
That's was Ime standing his ground. If LeBron is too sensitive to handle Ime's words, then stay on the court and play the game. Come to the bench into a coaches domain, then you get what you get! Ime didn't go on the court, LeBron approached him. Ime's ejection is right up there with Tim Duncan's ejection for laughing and smiling. These referees ego's need to be checked.
@@seanswinton6242
Nothing wrong with walking over to a person to talk with them. To act like that action is confrontational is the opposite of tough.
He got rejected because that was his 2nd tech.
If someone is talking about me or referring to me, I also might be inclined to walk over to him or her so I can properly hear all they are saying. We both get to clap back at each other and I’d definitely go low if I need to.
@croweziec, Ime shouldn't have broke the rules. Even though it is sports entertainment, it is also a business. Not a back alley.
LBJ is a very good basketball player and man-enough….but If you looking for MJ like vibe, he looks soft & phony
2:54 is where the Key and Peele skit starts
If someone came up to SAS and said, “You be doing all that hollering on first take like a b****” every morning”, I wonder what his response would be
LeBron had no buiness checking Ime and I like how Ime stood on buiness
I will never put Lebron over Mike on the court but Lebron definitely has my respect for lasting as long as he has in the NBA and staying out of trouble the whole time. 🏀💯
Thank god ya opinion doesn’t matter
@@jaysmith61 My opinion matters to me and that's all I need. 🙂
Good one
@@CharlesEdmond79Jay sounds like an insecure little boy don't worry bout that
This is the reason why Lebron is better than Jordan, cuz of the same people keep telling that Jordan is better than Lebron.
when they go low I go to the basement 😂😂😂😂😂
When they go low, I go to the basement. Sometime I go to hell.
😂
Just like media not covering that Josh "under 18" Giddey issue... They are SOFT and they even are defending it
They did cover it a few days ago.
Dude you do know that a report came that the girl apparently lied about her age right?
Yeah the basement, that is where we will go.
Saying someone acts like a female dog is an insult any way you slice it. Wars hve been declared over less than that lol
After Ime called Lebron soft, Lebron called him a "f'ing puzzy" but Stephen A. will never tell you that.
No he didn't 😂😂😂 the audio is public 🤡
@@thehumannugakareemsupreme9484where did bro get that from?😭
Stop lying for your queen. Audio out,, lol 😂
@nagille6731 honestly lebron looks better by not going at udoka.
Stephen A one of the softest humans on earth, is now trying to tell adults they should just be ok with being called out their name. Wild.
You celebrities can do no wrong. Stop the celebrity worship. Shannon why didn't you go to the basement with Skip
Stephen a soft as hell 😂
go to the basement LOLOLOLOL
He said something else... check the reaction of the fans in the back
When they go low, I go to the basement....YEEEEEEAH
😂😂😂😂 That's vintage FS1 Unc right there.
JUST STOP IT!!!! I am from Chicago and Michael complained about calls just as much as Lebron.. Just Stop It!!!
Bruh Kobe called his own teammates bitches IN PRACTICE. He got 5 rings, 2 without Shaq. I love Bron but their mentality wasn’t the same. R.I.P KBB
I'm done!!! Steven A. Smith called Shay Shay, "brick house". I'm done!!! Brothers don't call each other "brick house". SMH
Bad look for Bron, he shouldn’t concern himself with nobodies
Who are you?
@@uncleb7821 Batman
At his age and with all his status in the league he shouldn’t even look Ime’s way. And that’s coming from a fan that can’t stand Lebron.
"He's a BRICKHOUSE!"
Question: What is "Pause"
I see what you did there…Boondocks, my man.
Hey Unc, just kiss your boy Lebron already.
Ime Udoka was in the right and he knows Lebron is soft, Lebron's muscle and attitude are fabricated and manufactured. Lebron telling someone to not use a word "loosely", he should follow his own words and stop using the word "GOAT" so loosely when describing himself.
He is the greatest nobody stopping him in the 90s
how are his muscles fabricated?, lol
I don't care what anyone says and this is why LeBron is blessed! His carried himself in away to not fit the stereo type, and he's being a positive roll model for his son's and a great example for his little girl as well he's focused on his game and not interested in trying to tear another blackman down or humiliate them. God's blessed him and his billionaire status and you guys keep calling him soft. I don't think LeBron wants to get angry he knows he's a big man and could really hurt someone.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nah
Lebron whines about every play that doesn’t go in his favor. His female dog nick name is warranted
Steven A made his career out of "BITCHIN"! Now that's a "SOFT" way to make millions!
He called him. B word first
The real soft one is the coach for cheating on Nia Long
Shannon Sharpe is Lebrons side piece 😂😂😂😂
The biggest bronsexual of them all.. even bigger than nick wright
Its not what you are called..its what you answer to💯💯
This should have way more likes.
Not true. You can fool some if the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all the time.
Sharp can’t debate with Smith. LBJ was looking for that, and got his feelings hurt!
Sthu bum
Stephen A full of it as usual. Coaches need to coach and Udoka team getting punked and will again 😂😂how about just coaching and keeping your mouth shut at the other teams player.
Refs ejecting players because they trash talked another player is ridiculous. Mind your business lol nobody is talking to the ref
STEPHEN A SMITH IS REALLY SOFT FOR NOT ADDRESSING GLORIA ALLRED REPRESENTING JOSH GIDDEY 'S " KIDDIE"
You Address It
@@Bhard510 I HAVE DONE IT CONTINUOUSLY SINCE I BECAME AWARE OF IT AND I WILL POST ITBON STEPHEN A SMITH"S PLATFORMS EVERYDAY UNTIL HE ADDRESSES IT. I WILL. OT TOLERATE STEPHEN A SMITH 'S RACIALLY DISPARATE TREATMENT OF BLACK ATHLETES AND WHITE ATHLETES/COACHES/OWNERS THAT BENEFITS WHITE PEOPLE IN SPORTS WHILE HE SUSTAINS HIMSELF AS THE #1 "BLACK CAREER KILLA" IN THE SPORTS COINTELPRO MEDIA ESTABLISHMENT
Stephen A Smith is the Wendy williams of sports
Who is Udoka to tell someone to stop "bitchin"?
Ime is lucky that he isn’t unemployed after getting fired from the Celtics! And how reveled why Dillion and others are on his team to become the new “Bad Boys” of the NBA. If it true that he wanted to become the new Head Coach of the Lakers then his comment about “having words with the player” instead of saying Lebron showed that he his bitter. Instead of checking the Laker team he should have focused on coaching his own. He did all that talking and name calling, got ejected, and his team still lose. He has poor character and he will never be the ounce of a man, husband, father, player, teammate, or legend that Lebron is. Lebron would never play for him so the only think Ima can do is bark from the opposing side!
Stephen can defend the trash talking and many will defend Lebron checking him!
Please. It's human nature to tell anyone to "Stop whining", "Stop btchn". You're going too deep into something so simple. Stop Btchn = Stop whining. It's not some new meaning. Or some new phrase.
Wait till ime has savannah "bent over" then u know what poor character really means....
Y'all playing with ime, Mr F yor wife😂😂😂😂 ime would prolly F savannah for the sake of it😂😂😂
Wait hold up did this man just call Shannon Sharpe a brick house wtf 😂
He told him to stop bitching! Lebron acting like he said something so derogatory or offensive, no big deal
This is whats the problem with our people. Why does bron need to be seen as a tough guy at his job . If more of our black men acted like lebron we wouldnt be in jail .
Lebron is soft😊
Unless you would say that to his face in an unsecured setting with nobody around and deal with the consequences then that makes you soft for saying that online level up so many men doing feminine shit these days
@tripbless2063 Why would anyone have to go to àn unsecured place? If you're a man, you don't have to hide. He ( Lebron) was called soft in front of everyone. Those are just words, right? I had a non-black person who thought that could talk to me any kind of way while I was at work. I didn't wait until I got off from work to handle the situation. I'm still working there ( 8 years )
@@ronaldmontgomery2079 Exactly he was called that in front of everybody the man is a billionaire he has too much to lose to be fighting in public so people feel brave like they can say whatever which is why I said unsecured place where he could react however he saw fit because no type of man would say something so disrespectful and not be willing to go toe to toe and back it up like a man should unless you are then you shouldn't talk that way
@tripbless2063 In other words, I don't have to be alone with a man who is just using words. I would verbally fire back at him.
@@ronaldmontgomery2079 So you saying you would do what LeBron basically did which is keep it verbal but you're online disrespecting and calling him soft you just hung yourself with your own words
Shannon wanna baps Lebron so bad!!!!!🤣🤣🤣
Ime is my new favorite coach!
For real 👍🏽😁
🤡s gotta stick together
Shannon and Stephen a are box office
Is that ESPN's studio lol
Why yu gas up you and Shannon like that 😂😂😂
typical ny dude still dont understands the streets..Bro you square as a pool table and twice as green..
Oh well
Van Gundy took shots at Jordan during the game in the 90s. So whats the point. Cant tell me that word isn’t used in street ball.
Stephen A English 101. How do I say stop being a Garbage Man, without calling someone a Garbage Man?...
Dude has no rings he needs to shut up and go win some gold 😂
What is Stephen A. talking about Lebron had no business walking up on Udoka?? He basically called him a Bitch!! Granted he could have just destroyed the rockets on the court in response but still...
Lebron is passive aggressive.
But James is a B. I don’t think he’s soft, just mentally fragile. He’s still in my top 5 all time though…
He couldn't be mentally fragile. He's been the most criticized and scrutinized player of all time and still succeeded. You can't be under the spotlight since 15 and be mentally fragile.
😂😂 yeah yeah
You obviously don’t know what mental fragility is. What you just said was mentally fragile.
Be careful of your words
mentally fragile lol, the man is still at the top of his game at this stage of his career. don't know how you define "mentally fragile" on your vocabulary
Referees giveing techs way too much for the softest reasons.
Lebron got offended like everybody doesn't already know he's SOFT. The world knows he's SOFT...😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😂😅
3:41 Ummmm, Steve A, who in the faukyn hell are you???
Stephen A I Love you my brotha 💯
The hatred for Bron is rooted in the fact that he's in the GOAT conversation w Jordan. So many ppl feel so threatened by that for whatever reason.
In goat conversation by who?? Media? Same media who keeps Lebron relevant?
"threatened"?? I think threatened is the wrong word, I don't think ppl fear him being in the conversation but more undeserved, many ppl feel he's not even better than Kobe and the fact ppl skip him past Kobe makes ppl feel the rumors are true that he brought and paid a few media analyst to force his name into the conversation but he hasn't earned the number 1 spot let alone the number 2 spot, he can be top 5 but he's certainly not top two. NBA players who played against both says Kobe was better, you can't override the opinions of professionals just to suit you unathletic weirdos
@@kevinmoore2820 First of his game & career put him past Kobe. He didn’t have to pay anyone off to do that. lol yall be talking like we don’t have a plethora of players who play in the NBA that say Bron is the best ever. He better than Kobe they even did a poll with past & present NBA players they still voted him above Kobe. He more than earn his place in conversation with MJ. The original poster was correct
@@FireAngelChris The original wasn't correct! nick wright and Shannon sharp are both under clutch sports. Why do you think they go so hard for lebron?? Because the game is more political than anything.... and they already did the polls on "who's better?" KD, Westbrook, Kawhi Leonard, Devin booker, Kyrie, Paul George all said Kobe.... And those are current players, the retired players chose Kobe too mainly MJ.... There are some choosing lebron moreso the younger ones (ja Morant and a few others) but they are young, impressionable and immature to the game itself so you can't take their opinions too seriously, they're still kids!
Listen, I played this game for a long time and the players who are more impactful to the game are the ones ppl fear. Shaq was feared, MJ was feared, Kobe was feared, Iverson was feared because of their "will" power and relentlessness to score and getting others involved while doing so. Scorers have a much bigger impact on the game than passers and "play makers", don't let these talking heads tell you different, As great as Magic was I could never see myself "worried" about him, but MJ, that's different. All eyes are always on the scorer
@@kevinmoore2820 Yes he was correct because you are acting like he doesn’t have a body of work that puts him here. We literally have polls,interviews & footage of countless players past,present & future saying LeBron. Idk why yall act like players don’t think he that good. We literally have players having podcast segments about how they were afraid of what LeBron did to them. Nick weight nor Shannon is paid by Kluth. Idk why yall think people can’t be fans of his without being paid. Were them people who Stan Kobe/Mj hating on Bron 24/7 paid by them ? Also it’s funny because nick weight nor Shannon been around 10+ years on Tv. That means prior to that it was nothing but people in the media on tv doing the opposite of what you claim. Until this day the still do it. How you going to say you played the game then say the players who are the more impactful are afraid. If this the criteria you using then Bron at the head of the list. We ain’t ever had a player impact the game in more ways than him. All those players you name outside of MJ Bron scorers more than them at.a better rate. That magic comparison don’t work in the scoring department because he better than Magic at practically everything. It’s a clear difference with them a scorers. Funny how you say they dont fear magic but he won big. Bron has a Higher career,playoff ,finals and elimination game averages than everyone you name outside of MJ with the most playoff buzzer beaters all time. He the all time leading scorer. He just so happen to also be one of the greatest passers/play makers ever. I don’t get this narrative yall have about him as a scorer.
So Shanon refers to woman as bitches,,,im waiting😮,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
That's what some females are it's harsh reality
Idk why he calling bron soft he go attack the rim stronger than anybody else besides geek freak 🤷🏾♂️
Unc crazy 😂😂😂😂
IF LEBRON HAD A TECH ALREADY, THE REF WOULDNT HAVE MADE THAT CALL
Lebron knew he he could get that man another tech😂 he played him like a fiddle. They may be men but one came out looking a box of rocks. Lebron dunked on him and Ime got played like the game
He was thrown out because the Ref obviously found it offensive too. Which means YOU, Stephen A, would be wrong on your opinion
Stephen A bugging over Lebron....
That ‘punk-butt ‘ referee, is getting a pass here. I agree with ya ,,,,,,,@Last1toBlast
Bro lebron took rookie coaches to the finals b4 as well are those good coaches?
Bron don't want to hear the B word instead he wants the F word bcoz that's what they usually use 😂
