Is LeBron James Frankenstein or the monster? On a special episode of "Fearless," Jason takes a deep dive into identifying the root of the NBA’s issues. When did the league start to decline? What is the reason for its downfall? In a recent postgame interview, LeBron James critiqued the media for being so critical that young and upcoming stars shy away from becoming the face of the NBA, fearing relentless scrutiny. While sports pundits across America had a meltdown over his comments, many new media members — mostly former NBA players — defended LeBron’s take. After hearing both sides, Jason concludes that LeBron’s distrust of the media stems from one person: Skip Bayless. The former ESPN and Fox Sports talk show host made a career out of relentlessly criticizing LeBron — on and off the court — since 2006. Imagine being a 21-year-old kid facing constant opposition; anyone would become jaded. Skip is the mad scientist, and LeBron is his monster. Tune in for honest sports talk you won’t find anywhere else.
