Netizens in stitches as Kai Cenat takes on Stephen A. Smith for hating LeBron James: "Finally found someone louder than him"

Kai Cenat has recently accused Stephen A. Smith of hating LeBron James in a recent stream. In a recent episode of 'First Take,' Kai Cenat got into a heated argument with pundit Stephen A. Smith, where the former extended his support for LeBron James.

The debate followed conflicting notions where Smith tried to establish his bias against the NBA player. Cenat, on the other hand, felt that the argument was personal and drew comparisons with Michael Jordan, one of the greatest players of all time. He even called Smith out for 'hating' unnecessarily. The latter was reportedly triggered and even said, 'Don't you even think about coming on the show again, Kai.'

The argument escalated with both parties yelling at one another, trying to win.

When it comes to LeBron James, you start hating. That’s how I feel. Because I feel like you’re more of an older generation type of dude. You like Michael Jordan, cool. Listen, every time when there’s a debate going on with Michael Jordan and LeBron James you’ve always got something to say about LBJ. I’m here to say LeBron is better than Jordan, I said it. ~ Kai Cenat to Stephen A. Smith.

Fans were quick to react to this interaction, with one user stating

"Stephen A finally found someone louder than him"

"why he hoppin up and down like that..."
