LeBron James led the NBA’s far-left political movement this season and subsequently tanked its ratings to all-time lows.
In the key state of Pennsylvania, President Donald Trump dunked all over the social justice warrior. The crowd joined in by loudly chanting “LeBron James sucks.”
Here it is:

“I felt badly for LeBron,” Trump announces. “Down 71%. And that’s for the championship. I didn’t watch one shot. I get bored.”
He was far from the only person who tuned out the series. The LeBron-led Finals were so bad that LSC baseball and regular-season college football crushed it. Pathetic.
“Nobody wants to watch” the NBA. That is correct, Mr. Trump. Check these out:
Here is how the political 2020 NBA Finals rated game-by-game.

Trump is wrong, however, on the NFL. The NFL is holding up well against election coverage and the pandemic. Its ratings are on the rise.
Regardless of who wins the election, though, the damage LeBron did to the NBA cannot be undone. It was a self-inflicted, historical tank job, and LeBron has only himself to blame.

Wish I had been there. The crowd was right.
LeDouchebag had all the money he’d ever need a couple or three years ago…but he’ll NEVER GET what he really craves. The same thing DOC Rivers wants.
Michael Jordan is LOVED…he’s BELOVED by millions…because he was real.
They can grind their mental gears ’til eternity arrives…never gonna happen.
Sucks for them!!! Enjoy eternity, jackoffs.
Yeah watching the Last Dance reminded us who the real NBA star was…and it’s not LeFraud.
I haven’t been watching the national felon league but i can guarantee if players are kneeling and all that crap disrespecting our flag and police the ratings will follow the nba into the toilet
F u lebum
After destroying the NBA, King James of Woke says he’s voting for an old washed up segregationist who authored the 1994 Crime Bill. The crowd chant was well deserved,
truth.
It’s gonna be a long winter for LeBron.
The racist fake protesting communist coward bitch Drama Queen James has destroyed the NBA
Whether its taking out contracts on LA deputies or being a mouthpiece for the CCP, LBJ is not a POS — he’s the entire turd…
He said he didn’t care if entire segments of the country don’t watch the BLM/NBA failed experiment. He’s a very smart “businessman” after all. 🤡
LeBron may think he’s being brave being willing to alienate 1/2 to 3/4 of the viewing public but he’s being very selfish. did he think about all the other players that are not making life-changing money? I don’t know how much of his salary he’s willing to give up but those guys further down the bench they’re going to be making less and lessbecause those TV contracts are going to be renegotiated. I also want to comment on the selfish inconsiderate Mark Cuban. He actually commented when asked about the NBA and doing business with China and all the human rights abuses he said ” but there are customers.”. I would have hated him to be around in the late 1930s and have him say the same thing about the Nazis. And being Jewish, he should be even more sensitive to the Nazi evil of the CCP. Shame on you Mark Cuban.
