“Your Best Game of the Year”: LeBron James Hater Skip Bayless Makes a Massive U-Turn as He Praises the Lakers Star
LeBron James, who is currently 38 years old and in his 20th season of play, has a habit of acting inhumanely at times. On his birthday, he led the LA Lakers in a road comeback victory over the Atlanta Hawks by 15 points. On his 38th birthday, LeBron James set a season best with 47 points as the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Atlanta Hawks 130-121. At the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, he added 10 rebounds and 9 assists.
At halftime, the Hawks were up by 15 points, but James scored 13 points in the third quarter and 16 points in the fourth for a Lakers team playing without Anthony Davis. Before the game, James said he made a 40-point guarantee to his teammates.
Skip Bayles praises LeBron James
Skip opted to compliment LeBron, surprising everyone with a sight more uncommon than the crimson moon. Funny how time passes because the same person said Bron was done.
CONGRATS, LEBRON, ON YOUR BEST GAME OF THE YEAR BY FAR. 47/10/9! ROCKY START, SENSATIONAL EXPLOSION. NO CAPELLA, SO YOU WERE THE BIGGEST GUY ON THE FLOOR AND DID YOU EVER TAKE ADVANTAGE. WHAT A FINISH. EVERYBODY FOLLOWED AND CONTRIBUTED. NO REASON TO "GIVE UP" ON THE SEASON, BRON

At the Hawks on his 25th birthday in 2009, James scored 48 points. The Hawks are ninth in the Eastern Conference, and the Lakers are still last in the NBA’s Western Conference. Against athletes who were much younger than him, LeBron James shown both mastery and greatness. Additionally, he displayed such vigor and hustle that even the ostensibly hostile crowd could only shake their heads in stunned amazement. Skip could erect a temple to LeBron James if he and the Lakers are successful in making the playoffs at the conclusion of the season.
