Lance Stephenson didn't follow in LeBron's footsteps, so he spent 6 years bugging him | Beef History
Спорт
Nobody would argue that LeBron James and Lance Stephenson have had anything closer to similar careers in pro basketball, but when they were high school phenoms, the possibility didn't seem all that impossible. Where LeBron met and even surpassed early expectations, Lance struggled, so once the two finally crossed paths in the NBA, it wasn't star vs. star. It was pest vs. pestered.

LeBron is my favourite player but I kinda respected Lance for all of this. So many times,specialy in the playoffs,players would show almost to mush respect to LeBron to the point where they played worse. Lance wasn't like that. He had some of his best games against LeBron and tried all the tactis he could to slow LBJ down. More players should be like that. Don't be dirty but try everything and anything when you are playing the best of the best. Don't get scared like others !
