LeBron James Gives Incredible Response to Michael Malone's Trash Talk

Speaking with reporters on Saturday, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was asked when he chooses to respond to trash talk like what came from Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone. Taking the high road, James gave an incredible response, saying there will be a time when "everybody will get it."

Not yet ready to share his full thoughts on what Malone and others had to say about him last postseason, James is holding onto that until the right time. The Los Angeles Lakers will face the Denver Nuggets on opening night, which will be ring night for Denver. Having swept Los Angeles in the Western Conference Finals, the Nuggets did have some trash talk this summer, and it's something the Lakers have noted.

Several Lakers players spoke out about what Malone and others had to say about them and their team, which added intrigue to this opening night matchup. The Lakers seem to be using some of that as motivation, not only for opening night, but another possible series vs. the Nuggets.

While Los Angeles was swept by Denver, it was one of the more competitive sweeps there can be. This of course does not count for anything, but it does add some context to the current gap between LA and Denver not being as drastic as a 4-0 series would suggest.
