LeBron James has a message for critics after latest title: ‘Bring it on please’

It seems like the latest angle LeBron James wants to take on how he’s being viewed is all about respect.

He said as much after his Los Angeles Lakers won the 2020 NBA title in the bubble, and his latest Instagram post is all about respect.

“WHAT THEY GONE SAY NOW?!?!” he wrote in an Instagram post published on Tuesday. “I know they’ll make up another criteria that nobody else has ever had in the history of the game. But Guess what though, bring it on please!! Heavy is the head that holds the [crown] they say. Let’s get it!”

The funny thing is I think everyone’s in awe of what he was able to do this season given everything going on AND his age. But I guess he doesn’t feel respected.

Clearly, this is what’s motivating James these days: he doesn’t feel like he’s getting the respect he deserves.
