He called Mamdani a socialist wizard who gifts menstrual products across the city like a fairy, and then proceeded to go on a 7-minute rant on why he believed Mamdani was 4-time NBA Champion, LeBron James in disguise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe has a sense of style and an utterly disgraceful swagger that is befitting of LeBron,\u201d said Cuomo, wagging his finger at Mamdani.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuomo, a reported Michael Jordan fan, was adamant about his theory that Zohran Mamdani is, in fact, the NBA\u2019s all-time leading point scorer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it was difficult to tame Cuomo in his outspoken hatred for the accused LeBron James shapeshifter, the moderators were able to get him to stop and let Mamdani respond to the attack.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mamdani, who had been stone-faced the entire tirade, turned his head to face the camera, smirked, and simply said, \u201cYes, I\u2019m a baller.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He proceeded to step from behind his podium, take a basketball from one of the moderators, and shoot from his spot on the stage all the way to the other side of the room.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Debate attendants were stunned as the orange ball sank seamlessly into a net that magically appeared in the back of the studio.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A loud buzzer sounded as time ran out on Mamdani\u2019s reply. The crowd stood up from their seats and cheered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An exit poll was taken after the debate.
