[Saba Sports News] LeBron James’ photographic memory apparently extends to talk radio slights, too.
On Monday, the Los Angeles Lakers star took to his X page to take a petty jab at Doug Gottlieb, the longtime sports radio host-turned-head coach at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay.
James quoted a post detailing Gottlieb’s disastrous coaching record—just 3-24 on the season, including a brutal three-month winless stretch—and couldn’t resist piling on.
“Earned 2 Not Given! Gotta give him credit though!” James wrote, sprinkling in plenty of laughing and poop emojis for good measure.
James’ shot wasn’t exactly unprovoked. Over the past year, Gottlieb has taken multiple digs at both LeBron and his son, Bronny. Among other things, he questioned LeBron’s parenting as a basketball father and claimed that Bronny—currently on the Lakers—wouldn’t even be a guaranteed starter on his Green Bay squad.
Clearly, James didn’t forget. And now that the moment presented itself, he seized the opportunity to fire back in classic LeBron fashion.
For what it’s worth, Gottlieb and Green Bay finally snapped their losing streak over the weekend with a 79-68 win over Wright State. But that didn’t stop James—who’s well known for his petty social media antics—from getting in his digs while he could.
