Even at 39, LeBron James’ career in the NBA seems far from over. His recent triumph with Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics has even left fans wondering if the Los Angeles Lakers star would retire anytime soon.
While there have been debates involving James about who is the best in the world, recently, something interesting resurfaced on the internet and has comments from former basketball player Scottie Pippen.
Hoops, a famous basketball update page on X, recently shared a post that had Pippen’s seemingly furious attack on James. The 59-year-old bashed the Lakers star for often saying that “he feels like the best is the world.” He said,
“If you’re the best player, why do you constantly need to say it?”
James’s NBA career is often considered one of the best in the world. However, Pippen’s words seemingly show his frustration with the Lakers star, who usually calls himself the same. Whatever the case, Pippen’s comments left the fans split on the X post.

“Reminds me of the famous Game of Thrones quote; “Any man who must say, “I am the King”, is no true king.””
Another fan questioned why Scottie Pippen has often been “salty” with his comments writing, “Why Scottie so salty all the time”
