'He's lying,' Stephen A. Smith goes hard on LeBron James' recent statement

The Los Angeles Lakers fans got excited and all pumped with one of the latest videos released by the organization and LeBron James that had the star at the gym with a powerful message.

LeBron James' message says "Don't mean nothing. Tired is only in the mind. You tell yourself you're tired, you're gonna be tired. I don't get tired." The statement goes alongside a video of LeBron James at the gym working out.

But now, ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith has said that LeBron James is lying in the video and that the Lakers star has gotten tired, not only in the physical sense but with his team and probably with Anthony Davis specifically.

"He's lying. He has gotten tired... It was a travesty that this man, in his 20th season, was in better shape than most of the league last year, including his teammate Anthony Davis." Said Smith on LeBron James' "I don't get tired" comment.

The reason why Smith believes LeBron is lying

For ESPN's commentator, LeBron James is tired of having to carry the team as Anthony Davis' injury record and inconsistency prevent him from lowering the load that James should have with the team.
