LeBron James Takes Issue With Mavs Coach Jason Kidd After Redeem Team Confession at Hall of Fame

LeBron James didn’t hold back during a recent Hall of Fame interview when former teammate Jason Kidd downplayed his role on the Redeem Team. Kidd joked about being “more like the water boy, the towel boy,” claiming he was in charge of keeping track of time and making sure everyone had the right Gatorade.

LeBron’s reaction was immediate and sharp. “Stop it. Stop it. Stop it,” he interjected, cutting Kidd off mid-sentence. The host playfully added, “So now we know who said that,” further teasing the back-and-forth.

LeBron then doubled down on Kidd’s achievements, saying, “He’s the only one that’s never lost a game in international play ever. Ever.” His mix of admiration and humor made it clear he wasn’t letting Kidd downplay his accomplishments.

Kidd, meanwhile, continued his self-deprecating humor, adding, “Do you see this group? I’m riding their coattails. ” but the moment was lost in laughter and LeBron’s firm interruption.

The exchange offered a rare glimpse into the bond between two NBA legends, blending respect, humor, and competitive pride. It’s a reminder that even at the highest levels, playful jabs and camaraderie remain a part of the game. Fans loved seeing LeBron defend Kidd while also highlighting his impressive undefeated streak in international competition.
