Skip Bayless will find anyway to hate.

Skip Bayless is someone who has consistently been known as a hater. Although he has been on TV for a very long time, he has never laid off his hating ways. Overall, this is something that has rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. However, he has yet to actually change up. If you watch Bayless, you know his main target has always been LeBron James. He refuses to truly acknowledge LeBron's greatness, even if it makes him look like a complete idiot.

That said, Skip Bayless was pretty critical of LeBron for getting swept by the Denver Nuggets. To be fair, the Nuggets were a fantastic team. They made it to the NBA Finals and ultimately beat the Miami Heat in five games. Overall, this is a series that could have very easily been a sweep. That said, with the Nuggets winning it all last night, Bayless took the opportunity to take some shots at LeBron James.

Skip Bayless Speaks

"REMEMBER: LeBron had four late chances to beat the Nuggets," Skip Bayless began. "And in those 4th quarters, he shot 7 of 23 and 1 of 10 from 3 - and failed to hit the rim with two late shots in Game 4. LeBron's Lakers got swept. The Lakers obviously would've beaten the Heat." Skip loves to do this thing where he sets the expectation high but claims that this is exactly what should happen. That way, when LeBron doesn't meet expectations, he can make fun of him for it. It's a pretty obvious tactic, and he continues to do it.

However, Skip Bayless and his show Undisputed are about to undergo some big changes. Shannon Sharpe is officially leaving the show, although it remains to be seen when that will happen. Now that the NBA Finals are over, it could be as soon as the end of the week, or maybe even today. Let us know who you think should be his next co-host, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.
