Los Angeles Lakers news: Enes Kanter is at it again. The former NBA big man, who now goes by Enes Freedom, has been one of the biggest LeBron James critics over the past couple of years, and he’s now taken the opportunity to take another shot at the NBA’s all-time leading scorer.
In a recent dig, the former Boston Celtics center labelled James as “the dictator of the NBA” — a slight that has prompted some major backlash on X, formerly Twitter.
Los Angeles Lakers News: Enes Kanter Trolled Hard for Latest LeBron James Attack
For starters, here’s Kanter’s quote on LeBron:
“No other player wants to go play with LeBron,” said the 6-foot-10 big man (h/t Legion Hoops on X). “… When I see a dictator, I know it – LeBron is literally like the dictator of the NBA. He controls the media, he controls his narrative, if you go against his agenda, you get traded, everybody knows it.”
When it comes to criticizing James, Kanter does not hold back.
A lot of fans have grown tired of Kanter’s relentless criticism of James. While some folks out there believe that the former NBA player is ultimately fighting for a proper cause, a lot of other supporters have lashed out on Freedom for his naysaying:

Really hate the fact it’s a common trait among right-wingers (I am one) to hate LeBron over his political ideology.
Hes the greatest basketball player of all time. Let’s accept it.

He's like an ex who you broke up with 10 years ago that has nothing going on in his life and still talks about you lol.

The mean streets of X just gave Kanter a does of his own medicine here. Be that as it may, you can be sure that the outspoken 32-year-old will relentlessly carry on with his anti-LeBron propaganda for the foreseeable future.
