Stephenson: LeBron is Showing Weakness

Indiana Pacers guard Lance Stephenson said LeBron James using trash talk against him in the Heat’s Game 3 conference finals victory was a sign of weakness.

It’s unusual for James to get involved in extensive on-court trash talk, but he engaged with Stephenson throughout the first half of the Heat’s 99-87 win.

“To me, it’s a sign of weakness,” Stephenson said after the Pacers’ practice Sunday. “[People] used to say that to me. I’m going to do something to get you mad. Now he’s trying to do it to me. I feel like there’s a weakness and I feel like I’m doing something right to get underneath his skin.”
