ESPN's Stephen A. Smith is one of the most prominent sports analysts in the world today. His trademark ferociousness and unbridled passion whenever he speaks is second to none, and more often than not, these are exactly the tools he utilizes to verbally outduel his opponent whenever he gets into a heated debate.

It has come to our attention, however, that the great Stephen A. Smith seems to have found his match. It comes in the form of none other than — drum roll, please — Stephen A. Smith himself.

We did not think it would have to come to this, but as it turns out, only Stephen A. Smith can out-debate Stephen A. Smith. We're not sure who won this war on words, though. Your thoughts on this, please? Did Stephen A. convince you that LeBron James is the best player in the NBA right now, or was Stephen A. able to persuade you that it is in fact Kevin Durant?

One thing we are sure of is that this was absolutely hilarious. This is the type of comedic relief we all need at this point. Social media has been filled with so much hatred and negativity of late — and to some extent, for good reason — so it's nice to take a bit of a break every now and again. It's not that we're taking our eyes off the ball, however, it's just that we're giving our hearts and minds a bit of a breather.

Props to whoever edited this video. We could watch this all day.
