JJ Redick Calls Out Stephen A. For Claiming LeBron Has ‘Never Been Feared’ By NBA Players
LeBron James and Isaiah Stewart’s altercation during the Pistons vs Lakers game was the talk of town in these past few days.
Even in year 19, LeBron remains the center of attraction for NBA media. So when Steven A. Smith talked about the situation on ESPN’s First Take, he revealed that he believes James has never been feared by NBA players.
In my estimation, from the people that I’ve spoken to covering the league, [LeBron] has never been feared. … With LeBron, you believe you can take him. You believe he can be had.”

This led to JJ Redick call out Smith, as he was not having it one bit, while letting Stephen A. know that he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
“I don’t know whether to believe that you believe what you’re saying. That’s crazy. That’s crazy…When has there been a situation, if you’re talking physical confrontation…Nobody has ever challenged LeBron.”
JJ Reddick just told @stephenasmith, “I dont know if you actually believe what you are saying!” Then SAS tried to say, when you watch the game.. JJ said, No, I played the game, Im telling you that you are wrong”
They gonna get rid of him like Max Kellerman. #FirstTake pic.twitter.com/0wydLfKPVQ
