LeBron James is determined to destroy the NBA.
He’s the “Collin Kaepernick” or the “Bubba Wallace” of basketball.
These egomaniacs get so full of themselves that they can’t see the forest through the trees anymore.
People like LeBron start out as superstar athletes and then they get a taste of the “activism bug” and it’s so much more delicious than the boring old “sports star,” so they gobble it up and turn into these insufferable political narcissists who believe they’re here to save humanity, not dunk a ball into a basket.
Meanwhile, America is flatly rejecting this agenda and behavior. The NBA, MLB, and NASCAR have seen their ratings go down the tubes.
But that doesn’t matter to people like LeBron. He’s enjoying the “so-called” importance of being a superstar athlete activist too much to care about something as silly as “ratings.”
LeBron thinks he and the NBA are too big to fall…and even if they do, they have Daddy China to pick them back up.
That’s the only reason LeBron would be (once again) spitting in the faces of half of America by mocking them with a MAGA-inspired activist hat. Not to mention, the t-shirts he’s been spotted sporting with the words, “By Any Means” written on them.
For the record “By Any Means Necessary” or “BAMN” is the name of a very violent Antifa communist group.

Tuesday night, prior to his first-round playoff series game against the Portland Trail Blazers, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James led some of his teammates in wearing mock Make America Great caps which had the “Great Again” crossed out and replaced by “Arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor.”
James also wore a t-shirt emblazoned with “By Any Means,” while writing on Instagram, “By Any Means‼ Lets Get It #JusticeForBreonnaTaylor.”
Some of the other members of the Lakers squad who donned the mock MAGA hats included Anthony Davis, Dwight Howard, Jared Dudley, Quinn Cook, Rajon Rondo, Danny Green, and JR Smith, as The Daily Mail reported.
After the game, James told reporters, “You know the situation that’s going on in Louisville, Kentucky. An innocent woman being killed, by the name of Breonna Taylor. A woman who had a bright future. Her life was taken away from her. There’s been no arrests, there’s been no justice, not only for her, but for her family … We want to continue to shed light on that situation because it’s just unjust. That’s what it’s about.”

Americans do not want to be bombarded by activism and politics in their sports or the products they buy.

People watch this stuff to escape the non-stop division and mob mentality, not dive deeper.
Sure, it’s a free country, and LeBron can say and do what he wants, but there will be ramifications for his actions…it’s already starting, but he’s just too narcissistic to realize it.
