Los Angeles Lakers v Phoenix Suns Analyst Skip Bayless has often criticized since the latter's arrival in the in 2003. While Bayless has claimed that he does not hate "The King," he has continued to call him out on a regular basis. The superstar made headlines earlier this week by playing in the Drew League. James put up 42 points, 16 rebounds, three assists and four steals. He shot 18-for-36 from the field, but was just 2-for-13 from beyond the arc. After the game, Bayless took the opportunity to criticize James' performance in the famed pro-am league. "Love it that LeBron played in the Drew League today. But: he shot only 2-13 from three??? He missed the late free throw that would've at least clinched overtime? Some things never change." Love it that LeBron played in the Drew League today. But: he shot only 2-13 from three???

Bayless' comments were one of the topics discussed by Chris Brockman, TJ Jefferson and Adam Chudwin on a recent episode of "The Rich Eisen Show." Jefferson was particularly impressed with how James has completely ignored Bayless for his entire career. "Let's give LeBron props for not even acknowledging this jerk for like your entire career," Jefferson said. "It's probably ... Skip doesn't stop, he keeps doing it." Despite calling Bayless a jerk, Jefferson did give him props for being one of the highest-paid sports personalities on television. "Skip Bayless makes $8 million a year doing that and I don't. So maybe I should apply it and use maybe what works for him because I'd like to make $8 million a year at some point."
