A-Smith talks about his grudges with James again: I only mentioned Brownie once, and he said I have been targeting him

NBA enters offseason. Earlier today, famous commentator A-Smith participated in the Dan Le Batard Show, and he once again talked about being confronted by James for criticizing Brownie and criticizing James. The cause of the incident was A-Smith's criticism of James' son Brownie. A-Smith questioned Brownie's compliance with the NBA and suggested that he develop in the G League first. James thought his remarks were inappropriate and walked directly to Smith on the sidelines after a game, emotionally demanding that he stop targeting his son. A-Smith said he understood James' reaction as a father, but believed that James's public standoff was inappropriate. Since then, both sides have continued to respond through different media platforms. A-Smith called James' remarks "weak and unfounded", while James criticized Smith's way of speaking on the show, emphasizing his position as a father to protect his son.

For this matter, A-Smith explained: "I want to say, go back and see the facts. Brownie's performance in high school, his performance in college, his selection, his experience with the Lakers, his performance in the opener. I never said a negative thing until he was sent to the court in the first quarter against the Sixers and then beaten up. That was the only time I made a negative comment about Brownie James. I believe he has the potential to be a player and one day he will become a very good NBA player."

A-Smith then continued "So James did it, and called me the kind of person targeting his son, and made other NBA players think the same, and so on. That's what he chose to do. I know it's fake, I know it's not fair, I don't appreciate it, but it won't stop me from continuing to live my life. He has his family, I have my family. He has his job, I have my job. When he does something amazing, I applaud him. When he doesn't do it, I will describe it truthfully. It's like that, it should be. I promise you that I won't have insomnia for a minute, and I will never."
