Never find a way to fire up the “King” if you want a chance at beating the man.
Early on Wednesday, Brooklyn Nets forward Reggie Evans decided to – perhaps a bit foolishly – irritate LeBron James by saying some very unnecessary things, from Stefan Bondy of New York Daily News:
“It doesn’t prove nothing,” Evans told the Daily News when asked what it would mean to beat the defending champs. “That was a lockout season.”
“Our team is defending the Miami Heat. If our team has to defend one person, LeBron isn’t going to score nothing. …LeBron is no different from Joe Johnson or Andray Blatche. No different,” Brooklyn’s starting power forward said. “People need help (on defense). Some people don’t need help. Everybody has to be double-teamed, it doesn’t matter who you are. You just have to stop LeBron in transition.”
James didn’t take kindly to what Evans had to say. He first responded to the comments on twitter:
He then fired back at the hustle man after dismantling the Nets 105-85, from Brian Windhorst of ESPN:
“You can’t just come out and say something like that versus a champion,” James said. “No one knows what it takes unless you’ve done it. You can’t sit here and judge and talk about a team winning a championship unless you’ve done it. (Evans) hasn’t done it.”
Evans had six defensive rebounds and did not score in 20 minutes. James said he did not speak to Evans during the game.
“For what? I let my game do the talking,” James said. “I’m not going to sit here and give Reggie Evans a lot of press, because that is what is going to happen for the next couple days.”
James was apparently right, because Mavericks center Chris Kaman evidently heard what went down, based on the following tweet:
Good day! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I
