Skip is a true hater.

If you know Skip Bayless, then you understand that he is a bit of a LeBron hater. Although he doesn't outright say the NBA star sucks, he still doesn't think he is the GOAT. In fact, Bayless has LeBron at number 9 on his all-time players list. That is disturbingly low when you consider what LeBron has accomplished. However, it appears as though this ranking will not change. LeBron could subsequently go off and win three titles in a row, and for Bayless, it would not matter. Regardless, the agenda marches forward.

Overall, Skip Bayless never tires of talking about LeBron. From Undisputed to his new podcast, The Skip Bayless Show, Skip always has reason to discuss the Kid From Akron. Of course, a lot of this hinges on the fact that the Lakers are currently in the Western Conference Finals. If LeBron leads the team to a title this year, it will be a miracle. However, that isn't forcing Skip to change his tone on the superstar. We know this thanks to the insane comments he made today on his podcast.

Skip Bayless Is Not Flattering

We say "insane" simply because it is wild what Bayless answers to the above question. When asked one word to describe LeBron, he says "flawed." Now, every player has flaws, but to immediately say that in relation to LeBron, is true hater stuff. Either way, Skip Bayless tries to plead his case by talking about all the times LeBron has fallen short. Ultimately, it is exactly what you would expect from Skip. Simply put, getting mad at this is like getting mad at a bear for defecating in the forest.

If LeBron and the Lakers do end up winning the title, then Skip Bayless will have to star re-thinking some things. Overall, he is a provocateur, and that is why he still talks like this. That said, there has to be something deep inside of him begging to just give LeBron his flowers one time. Let us know what you think of what Bayless said, in the comments section below.
