LeBron James was a voracious Jalen Hurts cheerleader last night after the Philadelphia Eagles cruised past the New York Giants in their divisional-round playoff game. The 38-7 whitewashing of the Giants by the Birds put many doubters and haters out of words. And LBJ loved it.

However, fans were taken aback, given the Los Angeles Lakers forward and 4x NBA Champion has always been a fierce Dallas Cowboys fan since childhood. And with Micah Parsons’ recent dig at Jalen Hurts’ contributions to Philly’s success, Bron had to say something.

LeBron James shut the Jalen haters up and surprised some

Last month, Dallas Cowboys linebacker and Defensive Rookie of the Year (2021), Micah Parsons had some choice words for Jalen Hurts’ MVP-calibre season. Parsons appeared on ‘The Voncast’ with Von Miller and raised the question, “When you look at the Eagles, is it [Jalen] Hurts or the team?” Von Miller thought it was a bit of both. However, Parsons felt that “it’s the system and team!”

After Jalen Hurts put on a 2 passing, and 1 rushing touchdown night against the Big Blue, Bron had to direct some of the trash-talk toward Micah. “Yeah, like they were saying. Anybody would look great at QB for the Eagles. Yeah ok. HATERS MAN!! Jalen Hurts is SPECIAL,” King James tweeted followed by a clown emoji. Fans knew this was a shot at Parsons and found it strange considering James’ Dallas fanboy background.

Also, some fans had LeBron to 76ers chants going. However, that doesn’t look like a possibility right now.

LeBron’s Dallas love fading may have something to do with Jerry Jones

It’s one thing to switch allegiances in sports. It’s a whole other story to shift your support to your former team’s biggest and most bitter rivals. LeBron James’ jump from Cowboys Nation’s club to the Philly Birdgang is just that. And Bron’s drastic decision has its roots in the controversial Jerry Jones desegregation photo that made the rounds last year.

Also, Bron had publicly stated that he does not support the Cowboys anymore owing to owner Jerry’s stance after Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the national anthem. And Bron has picked a formidable side to support.

Some fans were right to point out that the Eagles are stacked in offense and defense. With AJ Brown in the mix this year, Philly was always a legitimate Super Bowl contender this season. And Jason Kelce’s star-studded offensive line makes things exponentially easier for Jalen Hurts.

Bron’s childhood team, the Dallas Cowboys, faces the San Francisco 49ers tonight for a seat at the NFC Championship game. And if Dak Prescott and Co can overcome the 49ers’ and the strongest defense in the league, fans can expect a decisive answer after the Micah Parsons-Jalen Hurts duel next week.
