Since being drafted as the first overall pick by the Cleveland Cavaliers, LeBron James has instilled fear into the hearts of his opponents. Former NBA star Jeff Teague knows this all too well, as he never managed to secure a win against James in the NBA playoffs.
On a recent episode of the ‘Club 502 Podcast,’ Teague opened up about his experiences facing LeBron. During the discussion, Teague shared a memorable 2015 NBA All-Star Weekend story. At that time, he played for the Atlanta Hawks, and LeBron played for the Cavaliers. Despite the Hawks sweeping the Cavaliers in the regular season, James had a chilling message for Teague.
“I swear to God, All-Star, he told me—we swept them in the regular season, beat them by 25 every game. He came to me, and he was like, ‘I figured y’all out.’… I said, ‘You figured us out?’ Man, all he did was run a 3-1 pick-and-roll. He bring me up there, set it again, back me down, get to the free throw line, and shoot over me,” Teague said.
“If somebody helped, throw it top J.R Smith or Kevin Love, three. I was like, ‘Yeah, it’s over. He figured this out.’ There’s no way I can guard Bron. What the f**k are we gonna do?” he added.
Jeff Teague Admits LeBron James Is The GOAT After Winless Playoff Record Against Him
Over their careers, James holds a 21-5 career record against Jeff Teague, including a perfect 12-0 in the playoffs. On the ‘Club 502 Podcast,’ Teague couldn’t help but acknowledge James’ greatness. He even referred to him as the GOAT because of their one-sided rivalry.
“My fault, GOAT. GOAT James. We was losing; sh*t I’m a sore loser. I ain’t win a playoff game against that n****, ever,” Teague said.
“I was sick of this sh*t. Motherf***ing fans in Atlanta will cheer for him, he running down the court. I say, ‘You know what b**ch, I got something for you!’ Shoulder checked the sh*t outta that n****, he went to the stands,” he added.
While Teague is now enjoying his post-career life, the Los Angeles Lakers star is entering his 22nd season. He will be in the NBA for at least two more seasons, as he has recently signed a two-year contract extension with the Lakers despite considering a pay cut.
