A large part of Skip Bayless’s brand is to bash LeBron James at any given opportunity. So it’s not surprise that the outspoken and controversial FS1 host was vocal following the veteran’s actions on Sunday night.

During the game against the Pistons, LeBron James appeared to throw his elbow into Detroit’s Isaiah Stewart during a rebound attempt. Stewart was left bloodied, and a lot of extra-curricular activities ensued.

LeBron was hit with a flagrant 2, and would be ejecting from the game.

Almost immediately, Skip Bayless took to social media to speak on what LeBron James just did to his legacy by injuring Isaiah Stewart.

“Never seen anything remotely that dirty from LeBron James. It was the equivalent of hitting Stewart with his fist,” Skip Bayless continued. “Lotta blood. Just a shocking reaction by LeBron, who then spread his hands, moved toward Stewart like he didn’t mean it. Stewart wasn’t having it. Can’t blame him.”

Skip Bayless would go on to call for LeBron James to be suspended during his show on Monday morning.

For the first time in a while, people actually agreed with Bayless’s take on social media.

But it remains to be seen if the league will actually suspend their biggest icon for any period of time.
