Recently, celebrity speaker Stephen A. Smith called out James on the podcast "7PM in Brooklyn with Carmelo Anthony."

A-Smith said: "I just see you unhappy, and you hate me, and we know each other well. This is how we will get along in the future. I will not take the initiative to talk to you, and you don't need to pay attention to me. But I will still comment on you on the show. After all, you are still a superstar now, but when you retire, I will not even mention your name."

"But as a man, if the other party takes the initiative to communicate with me, , I will naturally give him due respect. If he wants to resolve the matter, of course I will resolve it. But my bottom line is that since he chose to openly provoke me now, don’t contact me privately, don’t come to this private meeting, that’s not what I want. The publicity I ask for does not mean talking in front of the camera, but asking him to stand in front of me publicly and say, ‘Brother, we have to talk’, don’t hide in the dark.”
