How Big Of A Loser Is This Grown Man That Got LeBron Jr's AAU Game Canceled Because Of Heckling?
[CBS Sports ] - The hopeful masses never got the chance. LeBron James Jr.’s game was canceled on account of security concerns before the ball could be tipped at 9:30 p.m. Thanks to an adult in a Michael Jordan jersey, who was jeering LeBron James — and a scuffle that broke out between adults before the game could even start — the biggest news to come out of Las Vegas’ basketball scene on Wednesday night was the fact that a 13-and-under game was scrapped.
It was, almost certainly, the most anticipated 13U game in the history of Las Vegas summer basketball.
“This was our first cancellation ever,” Joe Orukotan, who coaches Bronny James’ North Coast Blue Chips team, told CBS Sports. “A couple of adults decided to get into it, and we decided it was best to stop the game.”
Listen, I don’t care what you think of LeBron, but this guy in the Jordan jersey is a fucking loser. That’s the only way to put this. If you have to start an altercation at a u13 AAU tournament, you got some serious problems, the first being you probably just suck.
This perfectly sums up the Internet though. This is a Twitter fight in real life. A Jordan fan yelling about LeBron, which I’m sure included ‘rings’ and ‘superteam’ at some point during the yelling. But, imagine being tin the scuffle here? We don’t know who got into it just that some adults did and LeBron snuck out of the gym.
This is AAU hoops though, especially in Vegas. Last year the tournament saw Zion Williamson vs LaMelo Ball where Zion’s head coach was holding a baby while coaching. It’s magnificent and why AAU is great. You actually do have some incredible programs and coaches (looking at Keith Stevens and Team Takeover) where it’s better than high school hoops. But you also have craziness like holding a baby and then a scuffle like this.
Bronny’s team is the current national champs for the U13 AAU, so it’s no surprise that they draw a lot of attention – again, it’s LeBron’s kid. But, again, if you start a scuffle at an event like this you are just an overall gigantic loser.
