What LeBron James is doing off the basketball court is incredible

in sports •  8 years ago 

We all saw LeBron and 3 of his closest NBA guys open up this years ESPYs with an inspirational speech. In that speech LeBron seemed to make it personal. Asking what we are doing to create change and also stating that together we need to help better our communities. We've all heard LeBron tell us hes just a kid from the inner-city of Akron, Ohio. Rachel Nichols did a one-on-one interview with LBJ about his foundation and what they are doing to help kids in the city of Akron.

I never ask people why they bash LeBron because I know the answer isnt worthy of my time. How could someone hate on a guy that has so much impact not only on the court but off the court as well? LBJ could very easily sit in his big house and enjoy all the luxury Kia's he has in his garage. But he doesnt. He gets back out in the community that raised him and sheds light on so many kids of all ages. We need more people like LeBron James and not the basketball player LeBron James but the LBJ you see in Rachel Nichols interview.
