News around the pseudo-sports world last week was all about Skip Bayless and his not-so-sincere retelling of his high school basketball days. He likened himself to Russell Westbrook in an attempt to give him some basketball cred, only the world found out that Skip wasn't exactly a threat on his high school basketball team, unless he was threatening to warm a cold bench.
ESPN has turned into more of an entertainment network these days, I'm well aware of this, but Skip gets so out of control sometimes that it's hard to imagine him as anything more than Glen Beck yelling about sports. All he's missing is a chalkboard and a few chubby tears.
Usually, I do my best to take what Skip is saying with a grain of salt, and then a spoonful of salt, and then another few spoonfuls and you'll get to the kernel of truth that is deep down in his insane-asylum rant of an argument.
Basically, his biggest NBA arguments go as follows; LeBron James shrinks in big situations, the new breed of point guards are just short shooting guards, LeBron James shrinks in big situations, Dwight Howard isn't quite as good as his numbers say and LeBron James shrinks in big situations. That's not completely insane sounding, right?
However, we are talking about Skip Bayless, and he'll spout off some nonsense from time to time that even I couldn't defend, and if I tried to, I'm pretty sure Stephen A. Smith would show up at my door and make this face at me.
Here I have the most ridiculous of those arguments, the most incredulous words to come out of that man's mouth, relating to the NBA (so that means no Tim Tebow talk!).
