--------
Former NBA player Sebastian Telfair shared his thoughts on Stephen A. Smith's harsh criticism of Kawhi Leonard. Telfair agreed with Smith to some extent, stating that "to be a superstar, you got to want to be a superstar," and suggesting that Kawhi's lack of public presence and charisma indicates he may not aspire to that role. While acknowledging Kawhi’s humble demeanor, Telfair emphasized that superstar status requires more than just on-court excellence.

Man I use to think seabass was jealous and shit, But man, for someone that was on a magazine cover with bron bron is crazy . He actually handles this quite well, I’d be out my mind if I lost this life. He didn’t have the best ppl around him, was a star since a kid, very impressionable back then. His surroundings killed him. Still seems like a well minded person after his prison and anger. Idk how he feels whenever someone says something bout that cover. Being side to side with one of the best ever only at 5’9

Not now but 2011 to 2020… LeBron carried the whole league with basketball feats, historic accomplishments, and crazy storylines around simply the game not even drama on some hoe shit… As a highschool senior beating the Cavs team in a private practice.. most top ten all time stats that are out of his position and more and higher placements than who some try to call the GOAT. Anyone that say different is simply a hater. There was no one with his pedigree. Steph even got a name off LeBron creating a rivalry with him. You don’t hear Steph or a debate, without LeBron whose BEEN in it.
