Kevin Hart’s LeBron James impression had J.R. Smith cracking up
By Max Smith
Kevin Hart’s impression of LeBron James is perfect.
It looks like Kevin Hart has his LeBron James impression down to a tee. In a promo for his Laugh Out Loud Network, Hart sat down with Los Angeles Lakers teammate J.R. Smith and showed off his incredible impressions.
Hart perfectly captures LeBron’s competitive attitude. His gestures are hilarious, because we’ve all seen LeBron do the same thing a million times on the floor. It seems to be pretty accurate, because he had J.R. dying from laughter.
Hart recalls playing cards with LeBron, where he clearly brings the same attitude he has on the court. It’s not hard to believe, considering how much of a competitor he is.
Not many players know LeBron better than Smith. They spent four years together on the Cleveland Cavaliers, making four consecutive NBA Finals and winning the championship in 2016.
We all remember the moment when LeBron was most upset at J.R. during their time in Cleveland. It was Game 1 of the 2018 NBA Finals, when Smith grabbed a rebound with 4.7 seconds left and the game tied. It was a crucial rebound that gave them a chance to win. The only thing is, Smith forgot the game was tied. He dribbled out the clock, thinking that the Cavs were winning. They went on to lose the game in overtime.
J.R. Smith will look for redemption when he rejoins LeBron with the Lakers in Orlando.
