During half-time of the Golden State Warriors and Portland Trailblazers game, special guest Jamie Foxx joined the ESPN countdown panel to chat about the NBA. The typical ESPN cast included Chauncey Billups, Jalen Rose, Michelle Beadle, and Tracy McGrady.
Foxx was asked a question about a meme that surfaced on the internet. The meme listed six NBA players: Hakeem Olajuwon, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Tim Duncan, and Shaquille O’Neal. The question was “who would you take off this list.” Foxx quickly answered without any hesitation.
Well Twitter didn’t agree with Foxx at all! When it comes to popular figures in our country, there’s two people you don’t mess with, and that’s Beyonce and Kobe Bean Bryant.
Twitter let Jamie have it, and they didn’t hold back one bit.Ouch

I'm not caring about what Jamie Foxx just said about removing Kobe, its obvious you can't trust a man who has 7 different hairlines

Ouch! Why did he have to bring Jalen Rose into this? Next time Jamie Foxx should just pass on the question.
