"Basketball is bulls**it"- Released star Andrew Tate once had a scathing take on LeBron James and the NBA

Just some time ago, influencer Andrew Tate made comments about LeBron James and the NBA. Apparently, the ex-convict isn't a big fan of basketball. Tate previously had a conversation with famous streamer Adin Ross to talk about the sport of basketball. Adin was shocked to hear Andrew's brutally honest opinion about the sport.

Andrew Tate shared with Adin Ross that he despises basketball. Tate clearly expressed that he isn't fond of LeBron James or the NBA as a whole. The influencer doesn't see the fun in the game and thinks it's a waste of time. Andrew said:

"Basketball is bulls***. It's gay. Basketball is gay... It's just put the ball in the net, I mean, where's the fun in that?"

LeBron James has always been a polarizing figure in the NBA

For 20 years, LeBron James has been one of the most polarizing figures in NBA history. The reason behind this is that he has replicated the achievements of many legends before him. Fans have this bad habit of accepting change, especially if the change comes sooner rather than later.

Back in 2003, LeBron James was a newly drafted rookie who signed with his hometown team, the Cleveland Cavaliers. Before the NBA draft, everyone's hero, Michael Jordan, retired the same year. Imagine, arguably the best to ever play basketball just retired, and immediately comes another star in the making who already looks like someone who will surpass the great Jordan.

Under those circumstances, it's no wonder LeBron has had to deal with so many haters throughout his career. Fans still haven't moved on from MJ quitting basketball, and here comes LBJ, who's rapidly growing. As a result, salty Jordan fans tend to compare his accolades to James'.

But no matter how many times people try to bring LeBron down, he's overcome all the odds and has become arguably the greatest player of all time. James is a four-time NBA champion, a four-time Finals MVP, a four-time league MVP, and holds the record for appearing in the All-Star game 19 times. He also recently surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most points scored in league history.

Say what you want about LeBron James, whether you love or hate him, nobody can deny the greatness he's displayed throughout his entire career.
