“LeBron James Hasn’t Replied to Skip Bayless in 15 years for a Good Reason!”: NBA Twitter Responds as the War Between Draymond Green’s New Media and Old Media Heats Up

The folks on Twitter are at it again. This time the topic is LeBron James and how he has never given Skip Bayless even a shade of attention.  

The folks on Twitter are at it again. This time the topic is LeBron James and how he has never given Skip Bayless even a shade of attention.  

If there is anyone who has made a career living off of LeBron James, we reckon even Nike cannot hold a candle to this man. Yes, Skip Bayless has perhaps lived off of his vitriol for LeBron more than even Nike has with all of James’ success.

The sheer amount of unwarranted hate that Skip Bayless throws at LeBron is unmatched. But to his credit, LeBron has never once responded to Skip. We think there is a reason for that and so does this Twitter user.

As another user sums it up, it is beneath him. LeBron does not want media controversy, to go on a war of words, or even entertain someone like Skip.

Twitter makes valid points in the New and Old Media debates and pushes LeBron James on the agenda

As Another user points out, it is a waste of energy for LeBron.

One more says, LeBron is aware of his existence, in fact, he probably even watches him. But LeBron will publically never acknowledge Skip.


Draymond Green has given his take and we already know he doesn’t like Skip too much.


So, there seems to be a good reason why LeBron doesn’t respond to Bayless. Will he do so in the future? We don’t think so. Will Skip mention his name in the next day or two? We are almost certain he will.
