LeBron’s Lament: ‘I Wish I Could Do Normal Things’

NBA superstar LeBron James He is used to doing incredible things on the basketball court, but recently confessed that he wishes he could do more. “regular people” Do this when you’re not on the hardwood.

James, who is on the verge of breaking the all-time career record for points scored and has been outspoken on social issues, told The New York Times that being one of the most recognizable athletes in the world has a price.

“I don’t want to say it ever becomes too much, but there are times when I wish I could do normal things,” James said. “I wish I could just walk outside. I wish I could just, like, walk into a movie theater and sit down and go to the concession stand and get popcorn. I wish I could just go to an amusement park just like regular people. I wish I could go to Target sometimes and walk into Starbucks and have my name on the cup just like regular people.”

James, whose net wealth has been estimated to be over $1 billion, seemed open to the possibility that self-pity might not be a good look for a star, especially one who’s received almost as many jeers for his woken hectoring than cheers for what he did with his talents.

“I’m not sitting here complaining about it, of course not,” He stated. “But it can be challenging at times.”

After a Washington Post article, James warned Elon Musk, Twitter CEO, that he was being abused by James. Report Musk claimed that the number of people using the n word has increased by 500% since Musk assumed control of Twitter. “I dont know Elon Musk and, tbh, I could care less who owns twitter. But I will say that if this is true, I hope he and his people take this very seriously because this is scary AF. So many damn unfit people saying hate speech is free speech,” James tweets

I don’t know Elon Musk. I also have no interest in who controls Twitter. However, I will state that I believe this to be true. This is frightening stuff. There are so many people who think hate speech is okay. https://t.co/Sy0jvXIBnC

Musk responded by quoting Yoel Roth, Twitter’s Head of Safety & Integrity, who revealed, “Nearly all of these accounts are inauthentic. We’ve taken action to ban the users involved in this trolling campaign — and are going to continue working to address this in the days to come to make Twitter safe and welcoming for everyone.”

James’ outspokenness has included posting a photograph on social media of the police officer who  shot and killed a 16-year-old girl who was about to stab another child in Columbus, Ohio, according to police. He wrote, “YOU’RE NEXT. #ACCOUNTABILITY.” The image was accompanied by an emoji that looked like an hourglass. This apparently indicated that the time was running out.

James last July called Boston sports fans “racist as f***.” In the same month, he stated that Brittney griner, WNBA star, was being held in Russia and should rethink whether or not she wants to return to America. “Now, how can she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, ‘Do I even want to go back to America?’”
