Skip Bayless is known as one of the biggest LeBron James haters of all time. He doesn't give any credit to James' success on his NBA career.

Last night, Skip posted a tweet on his account reacting to Russell Westbrook trade to Los Angeles Lakers.

He pointed out that LeBron wanted to show Kevin Durant that he can win with Westbrook but also said that LeBron will regret the trade because Westbrook was "Too Ball Dominant"

"LeBron knows full well Kevin Durant, Best Player on the Planet, decided he couldn't win a championship w Russell Westbrook as his primary decision-maker. Now LeBron obviously wants to say, "Watch ME win w Russ." He WILL REGRET letting Russ be his point guard. Too ball-dominant."



Skip also uploaded a video of him talking to LeBron.

«No. No, no, no, no, no LeBron. You just blew it. Russell Westbrook no more fits with you than I would fit with you. This will turn into a desperate disaster. I know you want to show the NBA world you can win with Russ when KD failed to. Not happening. You will come to regret signing off on this deal. You will come to see your Lakers, tonight, just got worse.»


The trio of Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Kevin Durant failed to win a championship in OKC. When Harden was traded to Houston Rockets, the duo of Westbrook and Durant can't even reach the Western Conference Finals.

When Westbrook and Harden were reunited in Houston, they failed to get out of the first round. Many says that Westbrook being too ball dominant and his shot selection are the reasons for those failures.

Do you think Skip has a point on this? Or he's just hating the fact that LeBron will get another help for another shot at the championship?
