    Can someone tell me what the meaning of being the flag bearer in nba terms?

  2. The hed is incorrect. This is LBJ learning he’s been nominated by USAB, not that he’s been selected as the flagbearer by USOC.

  3. Next time someone argues with Nick Wright about MJ having more rings… “Well how many flags does Jordan have?! Bron has one where’s Jordan’s?!”

  4. Productpusher

    He better somehow throw the powder in the air before grabbing the flag pole

  5. I was really surprised when lebron announced he was playing for team USA , but I kinda get it now.

    Is there a chance Simone Biles is going to be the female Flag Bearer? Having two GOAT level athletes, competing long past the point most of their peers have retired as Flag Bearers would be pretty special.

    They really let the 40 year old do everything lmao

  8. chiangchilla

    He should embrace the white beard. Getting dunked on by an old man is just even more demoralizing

    “And that’s when I knew I was the GOAT.”

  10. AutographedSnorkel

    He’s the Bronny Jams of Olympic flag bearers

  11. Man freaking LeBron James… This is so inspirational. I try not to dickride billionaires too much but the guy’s story is just so cool. To keep hitting new milestones even after 20 years of utterly dominating your field is exceptional. Bow down.

  12. Nigel Hayes-Davis just being happy in the background >>>

  13. Really happy for him

    Love how as nba fans when the Olympics come along we can put aside team rivalries and really just cheer on our nation

    Lebron is easily one of the biggest US athletes from a global perspective and I’m glad he can carry the flag

    As a multi-decade hater, there is no one more deserving for his spectacular career achievements. Congratulations to a legend.

    This is the only way I could ever root for LeBron: in red, white, and blue. Go Team USA.

  15. Whether you love or hate LeBron, this guy very well may be the true GOAT out there. I mean, what has he NOT accomplished yet that any pro athlete would ever want in their careers and in life? Seriously. And he’s not even done with this NBA career yet lmao.

  16. Shit, after that South Sudan save, he deserves it.
