A player cracks: “LeBron will have to show me that he is better than me”

Often challenged by his most daring opponents, LeBron James generally delivers a muscular response to them on the field. That didn’t stop… a rookie from giving him an appointment for their first match in the league!

It is not because he is slowly approaching his forties that he now represents a threat to be taken lightly. LeBron James has indeed reminded himself of this in recent months. In the midst of the sad spectacle offered by the Lakers, the King somewhat saved the furniture with stratospheric performances for a player of his age. He even came very close to the title of top scorer in the league (30.3 points per game).

And to believe his declarations full of impatience, or even his summer body that he recently unveiled, he does not intend to stop there. As he turns 38 in December, the four-time MVP is still hungry, and will certainly not let up next season. However, it must be believed that not all his adversaries have received the message.

The ultra-daring declaration of the Pacers rookie on LeBron

Like every year, LeBron heard his name mentioned several times on the sidelines of the Draft. Youth hero of the prospects who are about to land in the NBA, he is both a model and a prestigious rival for them. Including for the Frenchman Hugo Besson, rave about him. Conversely, Bennedict Mathurin, 6th pick and future Pacer interviewed by the Washington Postrequest to see concerning the level of LBJ!

A lot of people say it’s huge. So I want to see how huge it is. Until proven otherwise, I think I’m better than anyone. So he’s going to have to show me that he’s better than me.

In any case, it is not the confidence that is lacking in the new rear of Indiana. Or madness, depending on one’s point of view.

Knowing LeBron’s past against the Pacers in recent years, and the many disappointments he has offered to the franchise, this statement may worry more than one fan of the Indianapolis side. By discovering these words, Internet users were quick to predict a butchery during the next Lakers-Pacers match, as well as a Jordan-esque rematch of the Chosen One!

…and I made it personal.

Bennedict Mathurin is obviously not coldhearted, and is waiting to measure himself against LeBron James to consider him superior to him. Something tells us that the King may mark the date of their first duel on his calendar!
