Candace Owens Rips LeBron James, Says Kobe Bryant Was Smarter

Guess who is making headlines again… Candace Owens got everyone’s attention with her most recent comments on four-time NBA champion LeBron James. I guess this story won’t be brought to an end in the near future. Owens took another shot at the Los Angeles Lakers superstar and she is definitely facing serious backlash at the moment.

“LeBron never came after me,” Owens said. “I actually usually go after LeBron because I think it’s important for him with the platform that he has — and I think that, to be clear, LeBron is a well-meaning person. I don’t think LeBron means to do bad. Just don’t think he’s that smart. I really do. I think LeBron James is low IQ.”

Candace Owens blasts LeBron James for wrong reasons

LeBron didn’t strike back immediately. He didn’t say anything at all. I guess he doesn’t want to have anything to do with someone who puts their political views over logic. Owens and LeBron do not share the same political views. The conservative author stands with Donald Trump. Got the point? Rings a bell?

“I’ve heard him speak about issues, and he just is so wrong, but I think he carries with him an arrogance which isn’t hard when you’re being called a king,” Owens said. “Right? And he is an incredible talent. There is no doubt about that. He’s an incredible talent. It’s very hard to level yourself and to say, ‘Okay, I can be really talented but also not be educated on something.’ Right? And if you are not educated about something, you shouldn’t speak on it. I try to do very good about that. If I don’t know something, I try to listen.”

Yes, LeBron likes to talk about big issues, especially problems related to people in need. He likes to stand with poor people who have no one by their side. Why did Owens ignore all this? LeBron even opened a school for at-risk youth. Those kids will have a better future just because King James has their backs. Owens is not a fan though.

“I would rather him be quiet than tell his people that follow him a lie,” she said.

We all know someone who will blast Owens for making these comments. LeBron has helped so many people in his life and he won’t stop here. Owens can say whatever she wants, right?
