LeBron James isn’t ignoring the memes poking fun at his history of stretching the truth.
The Los Angeles Lakers star seemed to address the posts that circulated on Twitter earlier this month during Thursday’s broadcast of “TNF in The Shop,” which is an Amazon Prime telecast of “Thursday Night Football” that’s a crossover with James’ talk show “The Shop.”
Social media users have been invading every comment section with a picture of LeBron where he said he predicted a high-scoring outing from Kobe Bryant on the night of his historic 81-point game.
During one conversation, the crew was speaking about how LeRoy Butler made his first Lambeau Leap, and that’s when LeBron chimed in to say he spoke to the former NFL player before the game as everybody busted out laughing.
Social media has been flooded with memes calling out James for lying about various topics over the years, and Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey made sure he knew about it as well.
As soon as James started describing how he knew how to use Ramsey on Madden before the Rams knew how to use him, the entire panel started laughing.

“You know what they be saying on Twitter,” Ramsey said as the panel erupted. “They say you be capping,” Ramsey added.
James appears to be nearing a return after missing three straight games. If he returns Sunday, he may be on a minutes limit.
In 10 games this season, James is averaging 24.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game for the underwhelming Lakers.
