Stephen A. Smith seriously broke down Mewtwo vs. LeBron in a 1-on-1 game

Stephen A Smith

Stephen A. Smith is now devoting on-air time to absurd questions about Pokemon.

We saw it back in January when he was asked about with of three Pokemons he would pick, choosing Charmander over Squirtle and Bulbasaur because “it reminds me of me because of the forehead.”

And now, the ESPN personality was asked if Mewtwo could beat LeBron James in a game of one-on-one. Smith once again took the assignment seriously, thinking “maybe he could pull it off,” and it might not happen, but it could.

A totally reasonable take. And if this is going to continue to be a thing, I’m here for it.
