Kendrick Perkins owns Stephen A. Smith over LeBron James in the GOAT debate

Former NBA star and current ESPN First Take analyst, Kendrick Perkins, has been at odds with host Stephen A. Smith following LeBron James' performance against the LA Clippers.

Despite Stephen A. Smith's assertion that Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and company were the better team, the Lakers emerged victorious over the Clippers. LeBron James, at 38 years old, continued to achieve the seemingly impossible and led the purple and gold to the win.

Now, Perkins has offered a reality check to Stephen A. Smith, who is famously known for having Michael Jordan as his choice for the greatest of all time (GOAT) in the debate.

"This is why LeBron James is the GOAT. Because your GOAT wasn't doing this at 38 years of age. ... We have been searching and trying to find a new person to take over the throne of being the face of the league, and we can't put a finger on that yet." Said Kendrick to a speechless Stephen A. Smith.

Nick Wright believes what LeBron James is doing is impossible

Fox Sports NBA analyst Nick Wright reacted to LeBron James' game vs. the Clippers not believing what he's seeing: "What LeBron is doing right now is just without precedent in sports history. Just impossible to still be this athletic, this productive & this good at this stage. Just impossible."
