rewrite this title LeBron James disses two more American cities after profane rant about Memphis

LeBron James is fully embracing his “get off my lawn” era.

The Los Angeles Lakers star James made waves this week with some shady comments about the city of Memphis. During an appearance on the “Bob Does Sports” YouTube page, James went on a profane monologue about how he did not like playing in Memphis. He then went on to suggest that the Grizzlies should move to nearby Nashville instead.

James received a bit of backlash over his remarks. Speaking with reporters on Saturday, James was asked about the comments and proceeded to double down (while also dissing two other cities in the process).

“I’m 41 years old,” said James, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN. “There’s two cities I do not like playing in right now. That’s Milwaukee, and that’s Memphis. What is the problem with that? I don’t like going home [to Cleveland] either. S–t, and I’m from there. People are ridiculous.”

In his 24th NBA season, James has spent extended time in every single NBA city. While James only has to travel to Eastern Conference cities once a year these days (including Milwaukee and Cleveland), he still clearly has his likes and dislikes at this point.

What is most interesting about James’ latest comments however is the mention of Cleveland. James is a native of Akron, Ohio, and played 11 total seasons with the Cavaliers spanning two separate stints. There has also been some widespread speculation in recent weeks that James could potentially return to Cleveland for a grand farewell tour in 2026-27.
