Skip Bayless’ Twitter is not the place sensitive NBA fans should visit. The "Undisputed" host has more than 3.2 million followers on his Twitter account, despite being very controversial.
Bayless is a well-known critic of LeBron James, but the LA Lakers forward is not the only NBA player he has talked about in a negative light. In fact, another Lakers player, Russell Westbrook, was a frequent topic on Skip Bayless’ Twitter.
This article will list the five times Skip's Twitter profile caused a storm in the NBA. Bayless loves to stir the pot, which is why it's not surprising that he's caused so much controversy.
#5. Skip Bayless’ Twitter was all about Russell Westbrook at one point
Skip Bayless is not a big fan of Russell Westbrook. While the LA Lakers guard has flaws in his game, the sports personality may have gone too far on several occasions.
Bayless loves calling the former MVP "Russell Westbrick", which has caused him a lot of problems.
As you can see in the tweet above, Skip Bayless calls him "Westbrick" even when he has something nice to say about the point guard.
Both Russell and his wife have talked about Skip and his inappropriate comments but to no avail. Skip Bayless’ Twitter has too many posts about Westbrook and it's unlikely that this will change anytime soon.
#4. Bayless loves criticizing LeBron James
Ever since LeBron James became a superstar, Skip Bayless has had him in his sights. Whether he is in Cleveland, Miami, or Los Angeles, the 4-time NBA champion has always been criticized by the sports personality.

While it's hard to calculate how many mentions of LeBron James Skip Bayless’ Twitter profile has, it's safe to say that at least 5% of his tweets are about the Lakers forward.
Like with Westbrook, Bayless has a new name for James — LeBrick.
#3. Bayless does not like Damian Lillard
Damian Lillard is one of the best guards in the NBA. He's also one of the most loyal players as he wants to stay with the Portland Trail Blazers, even if that means that he won't win a championship with them.
Dame is a fantastic player that any NBA team would love to have, yet Skip Bayless is not a big fan of him.
One of the most ridiculous statements on Skip Bayless’ Twitter is the one that claims that Lillard is not a superstar.
Even when the Trail Blazers point guard had a great game, but his team lost, Bayless had no praise for him. Instead, he simply mocked him for a great individual performance.
#2. Luka Doncic is not that great, according to Skip Bayless
Ever since he entered the NBA, Luka Doncic has been amazing. He leads the league in scoring this year and could finally win the MVP award. Unfortunately, Skip Bayless’ Twitter doesn't have too many nice things to say about the guard.

Bayless even claimed that he would take Jimmy Butler over the Dallas Mavericks guard. While Butler is a fantastic player, he is nowhere near as good as Luka. Furthermore, Doncic is only 23 and only sky is the limit for him.
#1. Steph Curry vs. Skip Bayless
Steph Curry is one of the most popular and successful NBA players. The Golden State Warriors point guard has won four championship rings in the last eight years, which is impressive.
Besides his success with rings, Curry has also revolutionized the league with his 3-point shooting. Unfortunately, this isn't enough for Bayless to like him.
Bayless loves talking about Curry's lack of defense or about his collapse in the 2016 NBA Finals. He even called the Warriors' guard a flopper several times. Naturally, he doesn't think that the 4-time NBA champion is one of the top 10 players of all time.
Guess the Lakers players!
