I consider labeling people as incel for thinking nothing is wrong with this and making it an attack on women in general is textbook woke. Unfounded claims of sexism (including incel), racism, Xenophobia, homophobia and any major areas of social justice that are lobbied against people with zero evidence are WOKE.

Or... he's just an idiot? Does he have to fall under a vague socio-political spectrum according to you because he doesnt know what he's talking about? Also, the guy tweeted Clay Travis ffs, read the room :lol:

In fairness they don't even know what they mean when they say "woke", so it's as valid here as anywhere else.

I'm not saying it wasn't wild that a 6'8 tank athlete flexed on a woman, cause it kinda is, but these fans have gotten way too comfortable for my liking and I like when they catch a stray back. Maybe we need another Metta World Peace to remind fans things can go left if they get too out of pocket.

Btw, lets stop and appreciate how angry Bron must have been at the time for him to shed his precious company boy, good guy, face of the league persona for a second, and react with pure instinct to do something that could have really got him in some trouble.

The Nuggets had that man in his FEELINGS.

Sad because he doesnt even realize calling a guy who shares CT tweets "woke" is basically calling out your own :lol:

It was much more of a gift to his critics. Imagine doing something that pathetic on the biggest stage at the tail end of your career. This is always going to be brought up against him. Let’s paint the stage and try to picture any of the all time greats doing that. In a game in which the Lakers got 20 more free throw attempts than the nuggets, a rare call goes against LeBron, he throws a tantrum and starts saying these refs sucks, he gets owned by a woman who makes a crying gesture towards him, to which he responds by making a threatening gesture to her, and for the cherry on top he brags about making her flinch and then gets dissed by everyone around him :x People like to talk about how his bball iq is but his actual iq must be super low

Damn what is wrong with this guy? In all my years watching sports I’ve never seen anything like this before. I love seeing Gordon ignore LeBron when he’s trying to flex about how he just made a woman instinctively react with fear at the idea of physical violence. Just retire already dude


Automatic L for posting Clay Travis
and this was funny as hell


Please keep political opinions off RGM. You might think that is an L, but others don't.


Clay Travis is a massive moron regardless of his politics. Like I said posting this dumbass’ tweet like Lebron was serious is a L

Funny? Is he 4 or 40? I guess he probably already quit the game.

Oh yeah, the notorious wife beater LeBron James brutally attacking yet another innocent victim...dude, the idea of physical violance is only in your head.


Too bad the real world isn’t like matrix and you can’t just freeze frame and thoughtfully analyze the moment. She got scared because she instinctively thought he was going to hit her, hence her reaction. LeBron saw her get scared and laughed because that’s how he wanted her to feel.

One's got nothing to do with the other....not that serious, & she doesn't know you my guy....no need to white knight.

And leave it to a ***stain like Clay Travis to blow up something like this. Threaten? Spare me haha.

Pro tip: don’t ever respond to accusations of being a woman hater by calling the person a “white knight”. As if the idea of coming to the defense of a woman you’re not romantically involved with makes you some kind of sucker. Only incels think that way

Just disagree then. I think the crying face thing pretty innocuous and at worst lame. Calling what LeBron did a "lunge" is excessive. He was far away from her and he moved like 5 inches. It wasn't a lunge or an attempt to intimidate.

And yes, considering how harmless the whole thing was, the gender of the fan makes no difference. If we're talking about a player getting into a fan's face, or about anything physical, then yes, different story.



Yeah that's why I called it a "weird lunging thing," because it wasn't some overt threat or anything like that, and like I think we all know LeBron's the last guy to so much as overtly threaten someone, which of course is one of the big reasons why this interaction is so strange!

BUT we're playing dumb if we're pretending the "made you flinch" thing isn't all about invoking a largely involuntary fight or flight response to possible harm, and like of course she flinched! A man twice her size just did a weird lunging thing at her!

So yes, I am indeed disagreeing here lmao.

Please do me a favor and define "physical violence".


Do yourself a favor and look up the word threat
