LeBron James is definitely one of the most polarizing figures in sports today. While no one could deny his extraordinary abilities on a basketball court, fans, members of the media and players constantly debate over his tactics on and off the court.
Some point to LeBron's incredible strength, others point to his egregious flops. Some commend LeBron's leadership skills, others believe he's a complainer full of excuses. Thursday, Shaquille O'Neal and Charles Barkley got pulled into the seemingly binary debate, taking aim at LeBron's recent attempts to play the role of GM during the Cavs' recent slump. The TNT crew usually keeps things pretty cool, but this argument between Shaq and Sir Charles had teeth.
There is no real right answer in the great LeBron debate, as proven by the fact that even the TNT panel seemed to be split down the middle on the issue. However, the clear winner of that debate was Shaq who absolutely went in on Charles with his cheeky 'back-to-back' comment.
Shaq's burn did not go unnoticed by the internet...
