Response to Being Left Off Lebron James’ Basketball Mt. Rushmore Lyrics

Given Presidents' Day coming up after the NBA All Star Break Weekend Lebron James was asked who would be on his basketball Mount Rushmore to which he responded with Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Oscar Robertson.

Bill Russell seems to have taken some issue with being left off the list, which can be seen in his passive aggressive response.

"Hey, thank you for leaving me off your Mount Rushmore. I’m glad you did. Basketball is a team game, it’s not for individual honors. I won back-to-back state championships in high school, back-to-back NCAA championships in college, I won an NBA championship my first year in the league, an NBA championship in my last year, and nine in between. That, Mr. James, is etched in stone."

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
