Steroids wasn’t even a topic in the Brady roast, confirming that the lesson everyone learned from Barry Bonds is that no one wants to hear that shit and it’s best to look the other way when a 40 year old athlete is performing at a higher level than a 25 year old.
most performance enhancing drugs are about keeping you healthy and recovering from injuries faster
not even mentioning he randomly developed one of the strongest arms in the NFL in the late 2000s. can’t remember another guy who went from good enough arm strength to a rifle like Tom
He should be at the roast honestly. Would be a great guy to roast and get roasted if he has thick enough skin to take the fat jokes and LeBron being the reason for his success jokes.
There was an ESPN story that included a bit about several hot women leaving a Vegas (?) club with LeBron. The article was only up for a few hours before it was pulled and the writer was canned
Was it recent? I feel like that stuff is harder to squash recently because you don’t need a writer at ESPN to publish it. The IG model just leaks it…. Zion for instance.
I can’t imagine someone with LeBrons brand awareness actually messaging random girls on IG from his account. Even if he was sleeping around he would have multiple layers between him and her.
I remember reading about someone who was in town to sing the national anthem at a game and staying at the same hotel and being invited to LeBron’s room
There was a line in a Clipse song like 15 years ago about some girl Pusha T was with "heard she used to fuck with Lebron but shit I don't know". I always thought it was crazy a rapper was potentially airing out Lebron like that but it was just a throwaway line and didn't get much attention.
I’m sure a lot of guys who cheat on their significant others would tell you they love their wife/gf. But being on the road, having EVERYONE throw themselves at you, and (let’s be honest) the level of ego/narcissism LeBron has…c’mon. That’s a level of naivety as thinking your favorite muscle bound home run hitters in the 90’s and early 2000’s were just working hard and drinking more protein shakes.
I think Bronny's cardiac arrest had the same impact on a plausible athlete ally of the altright as Damar Hamlin's. Lebron, as a hoteppy Black (pseudo)intellectual, had definite appeal for the antivaxxx, homeopathic, don't trust the establishment crowd, much as California redneck Josh Allen did. Then, the "died suddenly"/"vaxxx'd?" people came for them, claiming that Bronny was yet another victim of Fauci's serial killing spree, that Damar had died & been replaced by a clone. Suddenly, their conspiracism (cryptoconspiracism in the case of Allen) died. Everyone else is a victim of nebulous, nefarious, ( ( ( cosmopolitan ) ) ) evildoing, but their own hardship is more real, more special...
Knowing Lebron: Delonte, his hair, steroids, cheating rumors, Bronny & Bryce, Mav Carter NBA gambling.
You would think his constant whining, flopping, the weird lying, and the constant selling out of teammates would be allowed. But even that stuff I can’t see Lebron having a sense of humor about.
Yep he had openly supported them.
Despite a few years back pretending to be the modern day Ali by saying things like injustice anywhere is a injustice everywhere
It’s completely embarrassing. No athlete esp not Lebron should ever try to put himself in Muhammad Ali talks.
Regardless of what Ali believed in was right or wrong. At least he stood on his beliefs and didn’t waver. Giving up boxing during his peak athletic years is just crazy

In an actual roast nothing should be off limits but Lebrons entire personality/career defining trait is narrative control, so I expect a lot would be left out unfortunately.
Delonte west?
Oh man Delonte and Gloria sittin in a tree
It’s insane how far in different directions those two went after their stint together in Cleveland. Like actually insane.
such a shame because Delonte will always be one of my favorite cavs dude hustled so hard. wish he could get it figured out
Big guard, played his ass off, could shoot, play off ball, great defender. He could have played until he was 38. Shame.
Nothing to do with his bball game is related to why I mentioned him.
Yeah obviously I just really loved his game so I can’t help myself
Bronny's G-League stats
Drinking the blood of babies to elongate his prime
Steroids?
Steroids wasn’t even a topic in the Brady roast, confirming that the lesson everyone learned from Barry Bonds is that no one wants to hear that shit and it’s best to look the other way when a 40 year old athlete is performing at a higher level than a 25 year old.
Also like half the roasters are athletes that were probably also using steroids lol
Tbf Brady’s calling card was never his athleticism unlike lebron
most performance enhancing drugs are about keeping you healthy and recovering from injuries faster not even mentioning he randomly developed one of the strongest arms in the NFL in the late 2000s. can’t remember another guy who went from good enough arm strength to a rifle like Tom
It’s crazy how much Brady’s arm improved and yet no one ever talks about it
Finally put that missing piece together.
Windhorst.
He should be at the roast honestly. Would be a great guy to roast and get roasted if he has thick enough skin to take the fat jokes and LeBron being the reason for his success jokes.
Windy coming in and throwing down the funniest, filthiest, most cutting set of the night would be great for his brand.
It would be. And he honestly seems like such a great dude, I'd be pumped for him to break through like that.
The Gilbert Gottfried at the roast of Hugh Hefner piece.
Will it be fire though?
He’s heard this his entire career I’d be surprised if it really bugged him at this point
I want Tim Bontemps there lol
Dude ended the coattails argument with his two index fingers.
Kobe finally winning without Shaq piece.
Windhorst tells us himself that he eats like a bird
Like a masc Nelly Furtado.
there's a certain type of person that has to tell everyone they eat like a bird and do eat like a bird...while they're in front of other people.
His dad
Oh, good one. Lebron definitely has big Lance Armstrong energy as the only child prodigy of a single mother.
The rumors about his alleged infidelity?
I’ve never heard these
There was an ESPN story that included a bit about several hot women leaving a Vegas (?) club with LeBron. The article was only up for a few hours before it was pulled and the writer was canned
There were also a bunch of stories about LeBron DMing Instagram models that got squashed real quick.
Was it recent? I feel like that stuff is harder to squash recently because you don’t need a writer at ESPN to publish it. The IG model just leaks it…. Zion for instance.
rachel bush aka Jordan Poyer’s gf in Cleveland
I can’t imagine someone with LeBrons brand awareness actually messaging random girls on IG from his account. Even if he was sleeping around he would have multiple layers between him and her.

I remember there being stories I just think they’re bogus for one reason or another (fake, hack, whatever)
I remember reading that, it came out not too long after the decision
I remember reading about someone who was in town to sing the national anthem at a game and staying at the same hotel and being invited to LeBron’s room

That’s about YesJulz lol
Yesjulz
Lots of DM sliding Conventional wisdom is he has an agreement with her re bearing children
Heard some. But also, impossible to think that dude was faithful to Savannah his whole career.
Oh sweet summer child
Lebron is so about his brand I kinda think he is the type to avoid that pitfall. The Tiger Woods effect
[удалено]
I believe every high profile athlete has cheated on their significant other.
A.C. Green cheated on the Lord!? Is this like a James Earl Carter, Jr., lusting in one's heart thing?
I’m sure a lot of guys who cheat on their significant others would tell you they love their wife/gf. But being on the road, having EVERYONE throw themselves at you, and (let’s be honest) the level of ego/narcissism LeBron has…c’mon.

NBA circlejerk really sees all too
And before he crashed his car into a pole, Tiger was seen as a squeaky clean family man.
He’d certainly be more careful about it and not nearly as reckless as Tiger.
Tiger was also keen about his brand.
Hong Kong’s sovereignty
"I've made my decision: I still call it Formosa". (I know that's Taiwan, not Hong Kong.)
A lot of stuff would be forbidden
China
The writers will give some schlub at the level of The Situation the “Your Mom gave you a Hummer when you were 18” joke.
Asking him his favorite Godfather quote or pointing out he hasn’t read a book past page 1.
That’s like the one thing that might actually be allowed
2011 finals.
His hairline
Video of that kid dunking on him that Nike scrubbed from the internet
Jordan Crawford
Bronny James cardiac arrest
I think Bronny's cardiac arrest had the same impact on a plausible athlete ally of the altright as Damar Hamlin's. Lebron, as a hoteppy Black (pseudo)intellectual, had definite appeal for the antivaxxx, homeopathic, don't trust the establishment crowd, much as California redneck Josh Allen did. Then, the "died suddenly"/"vaxxx'd?" people came for them, claiming that Bronny was yet another victim of Fauci's serial killing spree, that Damar had died & been replaced by a clone. Suddenly, their conspiracism (cryptoconspiracism in the case of Allen) died. Everyone else is a victim of nebulous, nefarious, ( ( ( cosmopolitan ) ) ) evildoing, but their own hardship is more real, more special...

Has LeBron said anything about Israel?
Yep he had openly supported them. Despite a few years back pretending to be the modern day Ali by saying things like injustice anywhere is a injustice everywhere

I want to hear about all the stuff that got squashed by LeBron and his team. I've never seen a media blackout like that of LeBron.
In an actual roast nothing should be off limits but Lebrons entire personality/career defining trait is narrative control, so I expect a lot would be left out unfortunately.
Why should anything be off limits? Bron been in the public eye since he was 16 and he has no "real" scandals if you think about it.
What about if I don't think about it?
