James Harden on LeBron’s scoring record after Clippers beat Lakers: “Don’t even say Bron… nobody is ever catching that.”

The Clippers beat the Lakers 103–88 last night, and afterward James Harden had one of the most definitive takes you’ll hear about LeBron’s all-time scoring mark. When a reporter brought up Harden climbing the scoring list, Harden immediately shut down any “can you catch LeBron?” framing: “Don’t even say Bron in this conversation. That record, nobody is ever catching that.” Context matters here: Harden had 21 points and 10 assists in the win, while LeBron still dropped a season-high 36 in the loss—so the comment lands like respect from a peer who knows exactly how hard it is to stack points for that long. #NBA #Lakers #Clippers #LeBronJames #JamesHarden #NBAHistory #ScoringRecord #NBADiscussion

Charles Barkley says his friendship with MJ ended the night he called him a bad GM on TV

Charles Barkley revealed the exact moment his relationship with Michael Jordan basically stopped. Barkley says he criticized Jordan’s front-office track record on TV, and Jordan called him that night and “went ballistic.” According to Barkley, MJ was furious: “You supposed to be my best friend and you’re going to do that bullsht?”* Barkley’s response: “I have to do my job… and you haven’t been a good GM.” This isn’t even a new beef — Barkley has talked for years about how Jordan took it personally when Barkley questioned his management approach (notably the idea that MJ surrounded himself with “yes-men”). So what do you think: If you’re Barkley, do you tell the truth on-air no matter what… or do you protect the friendship when it’s Michael Jordan? #NBA #MichaelJordan #CharlesBarkley #NBAHistory #NBADiscussion #SportsMedia
