LeBron James disses Brian Windhorst for criticizing 'Mind the Game' podcast
LeBron James disses Brian Windhorst for criticizing 'Mind the Game' podcast And we're not done yet. — Mind the Game (@mindthegamepod) June 3, 2025 It seems like LeBron James and ESPN reporter Brian Windhorst have had a falling out of sorts lately. Windhorst had covered James ever since the superstar was in high school, but he has gotten a little too critical for James' liking recently. Windhorst pushed back on James when the latter defended Anthony Edwards for saying Edwards didn't want to be the new face of the NBA. James then had some harsh words for Windhorst during an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" in late March. Windhorst also criticized James' "Mind the Game" podcast, which recently returned for a second season with new co-host Steve Nash. The reporter claimed that people wouldn't like a podcast that is focused on the strategic breakdown of basketball, which is what the podcast caters to at a relatively advanced level. James took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to troll Windhorst in a video that includes several positive comments from fans who enjoy the fact that "Mind the Game" is all about the technical breakdown of basketball. Indeed, "Mind the Game" has remained a very popular podcast and has gotten high ratings from users. Unlike other podcasts which focus on news, opinions and what Windhorst called "drama," this one is solely about the Xs and Os and caters to basketball junkies.

Fans were convinced Cristiano Ronaldo was offside on goal even after VAR
Fans were convinced Cristiano Ronaldo was offside on goal even after VAR Cristiano Ronaldo is still featuring for the Portugal national team at 40 years old, and on Wednesday, he had yet another signature moment in his legendary career. And, of course, it came with some controversy. With Portugal taking on Germany in the UEFA Nations League semifinal at Allianz Arena in Munich, both Nuno Mendes and Ronaldo broke free behind the German defense in the 68th minute. Mendes made a decisive pass over to Ronaldo who tapped in the go-ahead goal. Immediately, we saw as Germany was pleading for an offside call. The flag remained down in real time, and replays suggested that Ronaldo may have been ahead of the ball in an offside position. Another look: The UEFA Nations League, though, was using the semi-automated VAR technology we saw in the World Cup. And in a matter of seconds, Ronaldo's goal was upheld. This was the digital mapping of the play that came in, showing Ronaldo was behind the ball at the time of the pass. Oddly enough, the VAR image looked awfully different from what fans were looking at on the broadcast. And sure, the camera positioning may have had Ronaldo looking offside when he wasn't. But that's the exact kind of goal we see ruled off in VAR with manually drawn lines all the time. The semi-automated system almost certainly got the call right, but that didn't convince everyone. This was how Twitter/X reacted Portugal will face the winner of Spain-France in Sunday's final.
