Sure, he has some opinions that many people disagree with him. But atleast he provides great arguments and information to back up his statements instead of spewing crap just for entertainment like Charles Barkley, Shaq and a few others.
Is Skip Bayless a much better analyst that most people give him credit for?

Absolutely. Skip is one of the better analysts on television today. People act like he just says shit and doesn't explain himself. He gives detailed facts and examples for each and every one of his positions.
Now, do you wanna know who's terrible? Stephen A Smith doesn't know shit outside of basketball. HE'S a bad analyst, not Skip.

He does that everyday on ESPN First Take. They talk about the pathetic New York Jets every day just to so he can expressed some absurd unsupported conspiracy theory about how the Jets are trying to ruin the career of a mediocre back up QB.

He just says things he shouldn't even be saying sometimes.
"LeBron can't do this" "LeBron can't do that" "Durant is better than LeBron"
seriously stfu

No. He is a shock jock, and most of his arguments are total garbage.

Hell no.
He's a complete idiot. The only people who think Skip is right are Tebow lovers and LeBron haters.

You would think that huh. There's a difference between 'criticism' and hating. Seeing LeBron choke against Dallas is justified. But Seeing LeBron drop 45-15 in an elimination game, and still trying to nit-pick crap is not. Proof that you have no idea what you are talking about.

Right or wrong. As long as he's arguing with Steven A. Smith, makes it something worth watching.

When you have KD talking down on you, you know you're a terrible analyst. And that's supposed to be his favorite player.

They have reason to be as well. It's ridiculous and he immensely ruins his credibility when talking about other subjects just because of it. And I'm pretty sure it's not only LeBron fans.Honestly, most of the people who dislike him are LeBrpn fans. Too sensitive to criticism.

He's judging LeBron on a higher standard than any other player. Thats not hating.

Stating your opinion on a debate show is not a reason to hate someone though. Skip is very critical of Cam Newton but I'm not going to rage because he's talking about my player. I feel as though it's objective criticism that isn't without merit.
His credibility is questioned mostly by those who don't know his background. I'm all for people disagreeing with opinions that's fine. but to hate someone for stating what they believe with facts is not very fair.

Panthers pls. Cmon bruh. Even when judging LeBron on a standard of MJ's level, 45/15/5 is amazing. Point blank period.He's judging LeBron on a higher standard than most other players. Thats not hating.

And why is it that he's judging LeBron on a higher level than other players if (according to Skip) he's not even a top 5 player? I'm pretty sure he spent more time discussing LeBron's flaws than Melo's pro's last season (his MVP season). I wonder why.
Are you beginning to see the inconsistency here? I'm 100% sure it doesn't take a LeBron fan to see this mediocrity.

You are correct sir. I am not a Lebron fan, but I think Skip's criticism of him is way over the top

Skip is a good analyst. People just don't like his views, and a lot of his views are different than most people. That is fine. He doesn't just make shit up for the cameras like some people believe. He researches each topic and makes his own view on it. Would be nice to see people on H-N do the same. Yeah know.... Learn about a topic before debating it, and making their own opinion on it, without listening to anyone else.
He criticizes lebron james a lot, but Lebron James is the center of media. First Take is media. I think we can connect the dots.
