LeBron after hearing he’s played against 37% of all NBA players in history:
“You think that makes me feel good? It made me feel worse… I played against 25 father-son duos.”
25 father-son duos..
Does that include Luka and Devin
Make that 26
27 because Jokic stepped up for Booker
If you include the Raptors he probably doubles the number.

What level of cope is this?
Nephew cope 😂
Wild
I wonder how many brothers he’s played with/against
Not sure but definitely his fair share of nephews.
After a quick look at his early Cleveland seasons, I can confirm that he once shared the court with the D’Antoni and Tony Brothers.
Does Lebron know he can stop playing?
Lmao, the amount of content farmed from one Bob Does Sports video
Who are these guys…? Why is Lebron golfing with them
They’re YouTube golfers and they’re fuckin hilarious
Their first video with Josh Allen & the QBs is genuinely one of the funniest YT videos I’ve ever seen
FP pissing on himself when he goes to pee in the bushes is a top 5 YT golf clip of all time
FPee
He’s Bob, and he does sports
Also love the Feed Bob episodes, and Bob Does Paige for two obvious reasons.
YouTube golf channel. In an interview earlier this year, when asked about some current event, LeBron said something along the lines of, “I don’t know about all that. I just watch YouTube golf now.” In this video, he even said he had just finished watching the Internet Invitational, which was like a 5 or 6 part YouTube series from last summer that totaled something like 15+ hours. He’s legitimately a fan of these goofballs who are very average at golf. It was fun to watch. Gave access to a side of LeBron that we don’t typically see. Seemed like he had a blast though and he’ll probably do more in the future.
LeBron is also average (at best) at golf so it makes sense for them to be playing together
I believe beats by dre and nike are doing a collab with LeBron and golfing
Yeah he was on trackstar promoting beats aswell
There’s no one better for golf content. Bob is just a wholesome lovable goof. Look up when he hits a hole in one, they are all losing their minds. Then the very next hole he tees off with that ball and loses it.
Maybe the biggest rookie error I’ve ever seen.
Lebron loves golf youtube, he was probably just as stoked for this as they were
Lebron is pretty clearly leaning towards doing golf content when he retires all the Lakers have been doing it. Honestly smart, travel to nice courses for work film rounds and play with cool people
Lethird of the League
Le37%
He should change his number to the most up to date % each season lmfao

If only ot was 1% lower, smh.

Bron was speaking with white voice, wild to hear that
He’s playing golf bro, what do you expect?
LeCode switching
Lenunciation
Name some billionaire black men who don’t code switch.
Most people code switch more than they realize. Usually unintentionally
Chances are you’re not acting the same way around your friends as you would with your grandparents, for example
Not most people. Literally everyone does it
tarantino does it
So cringe, Sam Jackson was like wtf are you doing
ahaha
Haha I’d never seen this. I’ve never heard him sound like that
Not everyone.
Looking at you, autism
Shit I do. Young old ugly fat it doesn’t matter.
/s
Are you young or old which one is it. I don’t question the other things about you.
People don’t notice? I do it intentionally depending on who I’m talking to. Hell, if I’m having a conversation with two different people I’ll change how I’m saying something depending on who it’s directed at in the conversation. I’ll talk to the same person in different ways depending on the seriousness of the situation.
I code switch when I talk to literally every person, context always demands a different approach
My phone voice code switch is I for some reason turn into an 80 year old going deaf and so speak loudly.
Politicians do it all the time. It’s ridiculous when they do it though.
They code switch to the point where it’s completely performative and excessive
The focus on code switching and black men is so weird… Literally everyone does it. I’m white as it gets and I sound totally different talking with one group of friends vs another. Same with talking to people from work vs friends in a casual setting. It’s just a normal thing that people do. Of course he’s going to talk differently on a YouTube golf channel with a bunch of dorky 30-40 year old white guys vs an NBA locker room full of 24 year old millionaire NBA Players
Tbf, “code switching” applies specifically towards black people who historically had to do this out of necessity in a very white world; that said, you’re not wrong either that people of every race/ethnicity often do this as well, especially if they’re from an urban environment - however, the term you’re looking for is “code meshing” as the one that applies to everyone
The term code-switching did not originate as something specific to black people, it was more about languange, it was popularized as being assosiated with a switch from AAVE but that’s not the origin and regardless nothing about it is exclusive to black people.
And code meashing, as its name implies, is related but distinct concept from code-switching that has more to do with multiple systems blending, rather than shifting between them based on context (switching).
Sweet child, the question at hand regarding black people is forced code switching
Who is forcing anyone to code switch lol. You think these streamers give af about the way he talks?
You think we aren’t talking about not only this little video?
lebron is bigger than any of these guys combined more than 4x over. No one is “forcing” him to do anything.
I unmuted after this expecting some minor code switching but he sounds straight out of sorry to bother you lmfaoo
He didn’t even sound this white in Trainwreck
Patton Oswalt or David Cross?
Where does he speak with black voice? Feel like he heard him a decent amount and he doesn’t sound that different here.
Whenever he’s just chilling in the locker room shirt off after a game or talking to former players it comes out
The barbershop/roundtable-style talk show he did. Go back and listen to that and then listen to this
EDIT: THE SHOP, I’m dumb
“It don’t make no sense” with the “black voice” when he’s laser focused on the court.
In a country with lots of successful immigrants, it’s hard to to be immersed in other accents, cultures, and ways of thinking and speaking let’s just say that xD
I mean, I’m not a native English speaker, even though I’m fluent, and whenever I watch any interview from lebron, I can barely understand a thing he says. However, in this video here I could understand him 100%.
It actually sounds like a different person, like someone is dubbing him lmao
I mean none of them are speaking the way they normally would lol its a youtube video meant to be consumed by as wide an audience as possible.
Also literally everyone code switches.
Yep. Depending on who I’m talking to and how much alcohol I’ve had, I range anywhere from “This dude could be from Portland” to “This is Blake Shelton’s more redneck cousin”.
He sounds like lebron always does man. Are we hating on him because hes well spoken?
“Oh my goodness!”
I talk alot different with my friends than to my parents and then I talk alot different again in work.Very normal behaviour
He’s mocking the stat. Doing a bit.
LeCodeSwitch
Next one Boozer, who played for Cleveland when Lebron was a rookie.
Shit he may wind up playin with Kiyan Anthony and Alijah Arenas if he decides to play another 2 years to wait for Bryce
Kiyan at least right now is not league bound
Bron gonna be pulling favors for melo. Imagine a Lakers bench of kiyan, Bryce and Bronny. And melo.
Tickets would sell themselves. They’d be competitive as hell to prove they belong. Bronnie now is just happy to be there lol. No pressure. Make that happen and suddenly he’s the guy. Merch branding and campaigns commercials galore.
Adam silver is salivating.
2003 draft sons
A third stringer of Kiyan, Bryce, and Bronny with 43 years old Bron starting might genuinely make Luka and JJ request for a trade.
I said melo too. Both of them
Plantain Boat?
And he got “lucky” Dwyane’s kid didn’t make it.
About Boozer I remember one quote by him after they got bounced by LeBron in 2011?
“We’ve won the most games in the RS and that’s all that matters yo”
In hindsight it’s just a coping quote but young me put this massive competitive loser stamp on Boozer from that day on lol. It’s pretty unfair from me actually, but it just stuck with me for some reason. Boozer was a pretty good player tbf
As you can probably guess from my tag i got a soft spot for Boozer, but that’s a pretty idiotic statement.
I’m sure Carlos knows it’s dumb too, he was just salty(so was i).
It’s giving “Ima focus on the positives so I don’t crash out right now” to me lol
That has to be taken out of context as it’d be a meme forever if not. Supposedly happened in the interviews after game 6 vs 76ers but I can’t find it.
Nah I’ve seen the entire post game interview live, it was literally that statement after they lost the series. It didn’t turn into a huge meme because social media just wasn’t like that yet. It was still mostly bleacher report trolls entirely focused on LeQueen and anybody losing to Bron just made them pile on him harder opposed to making fun of a good role player like boozer
He stole from a blind man, fuck Carlos Boozer. I have nothing against his kid though.
Stojaković too
Lebrunc
“You think that makes me feel good? It made me feel worse.”
Well, dang, Mr. James. It’s not like anyone is forcing you to continue.
He will be ready to retire when his career earnings are able to pay for Pandora without ads.
Bron still uses LeVanced
It’s not like anyone is forcing you to continue.
He probably needs the health insurance, 1.4 billion net worth isn’t enough to retire in America these days
He’s got a kid in college too, gotta be burning cash like crazy and another getting up there in age. It’s pretty sad he still has to work at this age while players younger then him are retired and enjoying their lives.
Doesn’t he eat out a lot too? Like tacos every Tuesday. In this economy?
Now that you mention it, he hasn’t done that in a while, he’s gotta be really struggling financially, that was like a ritual to him, damn
Just once I need LeBron to bust out a “Hey there Delilah….”
Waiting for bryce
I’m 42 and every day the internet likes to remind me that I’m ancient
Older than LeBron? Time to quit
Society says I’m ancient but also that I have to work for 25 more years. Instructions unclear.
What up unc
didn’t realize folks your age knew how to get online wow
Shiiiii I was ink jetting pics of Carmen Electra when you were swimming around in your papis ballsack blud
I was there when it was written!
Enjoy it while you can, because after 45? 📉 ↘️ 🛝
Damn
DomiNANT…. jfc
Yeah, its astounding how many ppl dont even know there is a difference.
If that mistake bothers you, do yourself a favor and don’t seek out the “Ask Bob” segment on the Brilliantly Dumb show. The guy’s lack of general knowledge is actually baffling.
Seems like an awesome guy to hang out/be friends with, though.
Ok got it don’t watch the ask bob segment of the brilliantly dumb show
Bob is dumb but that struck me more as a genuine misspeak than not knowing the word dominant. Lebron’s aura had them tongue-tied all day lol
I actually thought he was making fun of people that do that with the way he said it but reading the comments apparently not
some of yall are so fucking serious, dude’s having a good time playing golf and yall gotta over analyze everything lol. damn
Ok
25 father son duos is mind bending
Is it actually a real/validated stat? It kinda sounds like he was just making up an example
I’m guessing it’s bro-math.
Ninja Edit: 10-12 father/son duos according to Google AI overview, which can be trusted about as much as bro-math.
I mean it might be true lebron has a really good memory.
Sounded like an obvious comedic over exaggeration in the video
Not really, right now there are like 20 brother pairs in the league, too. Genetics plays a huge role in athleticism, and basketball is a super athletic heavy sport. So there are also going to be a ton of father-son pairs as well, you just have to play long enough to span the generations.
[deleted]
Yall are miserable.
lmao completely. Im a private chauffeur and have driven countless of celebrities and its hard to not be a lil more excited than usual
That’s just kinda how Bob Does Sports is though. They’re really really all about “keeping the vibes high”. Especially since LeBron is apparently genuinely not very good at golf, just keeping the laughs going and having a good time. Plus Bob was already drinking before they finished the first hole
Yeah especially on their first interaction with the athletes. They give the group of NFL QBs a bunch of shit now that they’ve had 2-3 videos.
I think Lebron gets used to it. He’s been glazed by people/media for more than half his life.
Watching the video now, they do glaze him the entire video even though half his shots are pretty bad (not usable). There is absolutely no way he is a 20-25 handicap like he claims. He’s closer to 30+, the first 3 holes all of his drives were OB (only watched 3 holes so far).
Tbf its freaking lebron i would be giddy asf around him tbh hes been in the league since i was a child
I really doubt he could complete 18 holes at his skill level. Looks like he’d be shooting 130+ which is really in the “don’t play golf by yourself yet” range.
But also he’s a beginner and if you think a bunch of youtube golfers are going to roast the world’s most famous athlete for being a shitty beginner, I don’t know what to tell people. It’s basically a work function, and god knows if your CEO shows up on the course you’d probably laugh at his jokes and say nice try.
I understand this is just content.
I read that Lebron claimed he was 20-25 handicap. 20-25 handicap sounds bad, but in reality is someone who can hit good shots most of the time (can break 100 on most courses, but has a flaw in their game).
Lebron hasn’t hit a single good shot for 4 holes.
No I agree with you…I legitimately don’t think he’s capable of keeping a handicap at his skill level.
Is that the Windows XP background
Where is this from?

Poor Bron lmao
Gramps is grumps
LeSad
Bros code switching 😭
Bobby fairways is inevitable now
LeBum stans really jerking themselves off today
This shit is what’ll retire him, not the actual game.
Nothing brings on an existential crisis quite like a round of golf. Someone give this man a hug!
In the future, LeBron will sound like a mythical beast who transcended time in the NBA
Hates playing against father-son duos. Is currently making all players against the Lakers play against him and Bronny.
LeHypocrite.
Lebron got his work voice going lol
Who are the 25 father-son duos?
Rick/Jalen Brunson
Anthony/Devin Carter
Dale/Trayce Davis
Adrian/AJ Griffin
Juwan/Jett Howard
Kenyon Martin Sr. and Jr.
Gary Payton Sr. and Jr.
Scottie Pippen Sr. and Jr.
Glen Rice Sr. and Jr.
Jason/Jace Richardson
Glenn Robinson II and III
Jabari Smith Sr. and Jr.
Gary Trent Sr. and Jr.
Samaki/Jabari Walker
so “only” 14
Thanks some of these I had no idea were related.
I wonder are they just looking at all NBA players since LeBron first entered, or are they actually only counting ones he was on the court against.
LeBron barely 40 and already giving “please just let me die” energy
Lebron isn’t old, he’s just old for the NBA. It’s always kinda weird to me when people say old jokes about him like he’s 80+
Will be a sad memorable time when he retires. A great face of a sport. Whoever is your GOAT, we should remember we are lucky to be watching him
What YouTube video is this from?
Then retire dude, stop complaining that you keep getting to play in the NBA at your advanced age and you keep getting paid more money than your worth.
he also played again his own father, Jimmy Butler
That’s a genuinely insane stat.
I know he said it in the moment as a joke, but does anyone know the real amount of father son duos? I’m curious.
Fucking idiots are saying ‘dominate’ instead of ‘dominant’ now? RIP American education levels.
LoL.
A great example of a pre-arranged “interview”.
Most doesn’t know that Klutch Sports screens out reporters before a post-game interview. They actually asks what kind of questions they’re going to field and make “suggestions”.
Good, fuck yourself old cunt
You’d think being a billionaire would allow you the freedom to talk in your normal voice, but hyper-capitalism forces you to capitulate anyway I guess
Are you being sarcastic? If you watch the video he speaks with his normal voice and cadence the entire episode. Even in high school LeBron has always been articulate. Just because he doesn’t speak the way you expect him to doesn’t mean its not his real voice.
Please touch grass
This is the most reddit comment I think I’ve ever seen
“It makes me feel worse”
As he’s doing moronic “major announcements” and setting up the next drama of where he’ll play next.
You could always just retire man…..
Retire because he doesn’t like a comment? How stupid is that?
Yes, he should retire because he played a round of golf with someone who asked him something he didn’t like. That’s exactly my point, yes.
Stupid, as I thought.
This was peak
Haha what a sad individual to feel any anger toward this video 🤣
