How many of you, when you hear the name “King James”, think of LeBron James?

Well, I’m assuming all of you who’ve been watching basketball for the past 10 years would think of LeBron.
The Houston Rockets took a little jab at LeBron on social media by calling their own James Harden, King James on Twitter.

Ouch.
If you saw Sunday’s game, then you know how this all started. The Rockets’ James Harden did his best karate impression when he kicked LeBron in the junk. A low blow (no pun intended) if Harden did it intentionally, but this little passive aggressive jab to James on social media, however, is funny.
Now lets see how far this goes. Do you think people will really start calling James Harden, “King James”?
Let the rivalry begin.
