It's a known fact that Skip Bayless is one of the biggest LeBron James critics out there. He's been spewing slander towards the Los Angeles Lakers superstar for pretty much LeBron's entire career, and at this point, it's become a bit of a norm for the renowned broadcaster.
Be that as it may, Bayless could not help but marvel at the prospect of LeBron reuniting with former Cleveland Cavaliers teammate Kyrie Irving. LeBron has reportedly been “putting some pressure” on the Lakers to make a Kyrie deal happen, and clearly, Skip is all for it:
“I want to see Kyrie and LeBron James reunited,” Bayless said, via UNDISPUTED on Twitter. “I think it would be the story of the year, I think it would be great theater.”
Bayless then talked about how he believes LeBron's relationship with Kyrie will be much different now as compared to their time together with the Cavs:
“I think Kyrie Irving would be on his best behavior with LeBron because he grew up and wised up and figured out, ‘I blew that. I had something that was pretty special — very special — and I blew it up because I thought I was that guy, and I'm not that guy. I can't do this by myself but I can do it with him,'” Bayless continued.
LeBron is reportedly pushing for a Kyrie reunion in LA 👀

He's not wrong here. So much has happened since Kyrie left LeBron in Cleveland to join the Boston Celtics. Surely, he's become a more mature individual now, which is likely another major reason why LeBron wants to play with him in LA.
