Perennial BGOL “Coon of the Year” Jason Whitlock compares LeBron James to a drug junkie

[cnc]

This dude is fucking pathetic beyond a reasonable measure. It’s sick. Fat ass who couldn’t hack it as an athlete at the next level (never had a shot because he didn’t have the talent) so he’s shits on the ones who did make it as a way of making himself “relevant”.

Fox Sports commentator Jason Whitlock is not a fan of LeBron James acting exuberant at his son’s AAU basketball games. On Monday the veteran journalist compared the Los Angeles Lakers star’s parenting to LaVar Ball and correlated James’ “thirst for fame” to cocaine addiction.

In a segment of “Speak for Yourself,” Whitlock didn’t hold back in criticizing James, who was recently seen dunking in his son Bronny’s pre-game lay-up line and cheering loudly at his son’s championship-sealing dunk.





Whitlock accused James of making a “spectacle” and “circus” of his son’s games and using subsequent viral videos as a “platform to build the LeBron social media brand.”

“It’s inappropriate,” Whitlock said. “It points to how much fame has inevitably changed LeBron over the past decade. Fame is a drug more potent and dangerous than cocaine. LeBron is a fame and social media junkie. He moved to Los Angeles looking for a better high.”

Having fun at your son’s AAU game is now the equivalent of being addicted to cocaine, according to Jason Whitlock. pic.twitter.com/xUQrxKEjeV

In his spiel, Whitlock said he once defended James in the 2008 NBA playoffs when James’ mother, Gloria, grew angry with Boston Celtics forward Paul Pierce for getting feisty with her son. James told his mother to “sit yo ass down.”

“Making herself a spectacle during his game — Gloria James needed to control and conduct herself with (dignity). That’s what parents, no matter how famous, should do,” Whitlock said. “They should not allow their thirst for fame to distract from or exaggerate their child’s performance. LeBron needs to follow advice he gave his mom: Sit yo ass down.”

James’ teammate Kyle Kuzma was critical of Whitlock’s comments on Twitter and Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum defended James by tweeting, “with so many fathers not supporting their kids we get upset because he is genuinely happy for his son!”

I agree with Kuzma and Tatum. Maybe Lebron is giving his son, what his father never gave him.

 

[zod16]

Arguably one of the top five most famous people in the world is seeking "attention" at his son's games? Come on...Whitlock has been a clown but his fat ass is really jumping the shark with this. This is the problem with 24/7 news channels and sports networks; they have to fill the time with something and often its bullshit.

Jason Whitlock big chunky ass stay low key hatin' on LeBron James

 

[RUDY RAYYY MO]

Why don't Marcus Wiley and brothas on the show ever call him out on his coonery,or why do they show up at all

 

[CoTtOnMoUf]

Jason Whitlock big chunky ass stay low key hatin' on LeBron James

Low key???

 

[34real]

[a1rimrocka]

Prolly gonna have something to say about this tomorrow too

 

[LordSinister]

Sometimes I hate that fat ninja. Does Lebron attention whore? Yeah, but other than that he seems like a great father and Husband.

Bitchlock needs to stick to snacks

He played D1 football

 

[Shaka54]

Fuck that fat muhfucka.

[Rembrandt Brown]

The amount of fat hate tied to Whitlock is a bit off-putting since that's not what the problem with him is. Why can't people criticize without attacking that (and all fat people by extension)?

He played D1 football

He was on the team; big difference.

 

[YoungSinister]

I get what you’re trying to do
But he was a D1 scholarship football player
Let’s not talk crazy

Context of the initial commitment I made was he didn’t have the chops to make it to the big show. And Ball State in the 80s was as low D1 as you could get and would have gotten SMOKED by any of the upper tier HBCUs at the time (FAMU, Jackson St, Grambling). Trust me fam; I’ve followed them since I was a kid and have homeboys who played their in the 90s when their profile was way up compared to Whitlock’s time there.

 

[ansatsusha_gouki]

Was over the top,probably(even though I really didnt have a problem with it),but to compare it to being a junkie is fucking ridiculous...

This is not the first time this piece of shit said something out of pocket.

Where was this piece of shit outrage when a white mother put her hands on a black boy,who was kicking her son's ass in wrestling....I find what she did more egregious.

This dude is a miserable human being.

 

[doggish_098]

I agree with Kuzma and Tatum. Maybe Lebron is giving his son, what his father never gave him.

I agree but the celebration on the court was a little over the top. One of the most known athlete in the world doing that. I understand it’s his kid but we have to remember sportsmanship and that there was another kid on the other side of the move bronie did.

With all that being said I probably would have acted the same way if it was mine kid

You killed it

Excellent reply

Thanks

He leaves himself open by talking shit

The irony of a guy on television accusing somebody of being addicted to attention is just to rich.

 

[jasonblacc]

Is there’s a difference between a coon and sell out I think Whitlock is sellout. He seems to have no problem helping black people advance and get jobs. His is 90% black I respect that.

I think bron is being over the top but he’s great father. He’s famous as fuck and knows it’s going to garner attention and over take his son and the team but he still does it. Shit Shaq, dwade, melo don’t act ass like bron. If it wasn’t bron most people would have a problem with it but everyone parents different.

He is a corroded sack of human waste

He timed this to the anniversary of the I Promise public school Lebron opened.

You know...

I do not know of thats true.

The media may not follow those dudes kids the same.

 

[doe moe]

Black man can't be proud of his son. Black man can't share in the joy of playing a sport together with his son?

This fool can't even run up and down the court. How can this fuck face be judgemental?

 

[Soul On Ice]

Death to all coons past,present, and future.

So you're saying to all fat people "You talk shit, you leave yourself open" to being attacked based on your weight.

If you want to be openly hateful to all fat people, I've engaged in enough internet arguments to know I'm not going to change that. But I don't think people even understand what they're doing when they target people they hate who are fat, among hundreds of other things (brown-haired, tall, etc), as "fat pieces of shit," "fat motherfuckers," etc. You're putting all fat people on notice that you quietly scorn them.

The money must be Great, cause there is no way I could be Marcellus Wiley and have to sit with this fuck all day

Maybe true, but that lends to my point. If you know the spot lights on you MORE why not down play it. I’ve watched my nephew play with Mike Tomlin kids in little as Pittsburgh mike does everything to deflect attention and route it to his son, who’s not as good as Bronny. Imagine if bron was the dude who never made it, I guarantee you every ones response would be different . Question: do you know the score of that game? Can you name players from that game?
Unless you follow high school hope you can’t only reason we know of this is because Lebron. That’s can be seen as wrong.

You make a great point

He is a sellout but not a coon. I like that distinction

I can see that.

But Lebron is never disrespectful to his son, his son's team, opposing teams, officials or parents and i never hear complaints.

So i hear you but its much ado about nothing.

There is WAY more positive for black parents especially fathers than negative

And to compare anything Lebron does to cocaine abuse is a suspendable borderline fire able offense.

You aren't wrong at all.

Fat/overweight people can say whatever they want about anyone but you can't say shit about them.

They swear slim in shape women are always hungry. They claim that women that are in shape aren't "real women".

Fat dudes are usually just like Jason. Always talking shit about those they feel are in better shape. They are jealous as fuck for the most part.

Are you fat?

I guess you forgot or wasn't aware of Whitlock calling Serena Williams over weight and out of shape, even through she was winning championships left and right.

I'm a big nicca (not nearly as big as Whitcock, but i digress.) FOH with that stupid azz stereotype about fat people. Stop generalizing. And for the record, fuck Whitcock, he's a joke, a washed up former athlete who cant go 20 minutes without mentioning his former teammate Jeff George (at least thats how it was when i used to listen to him). His fat azz probably knows a thing or two about addiction. And as a person who's struggled at times with weight, i can relate without all the hate.
