King James challenged that notion by tweeting out that some people still doubt Paul despite his countless victories. He's also engaged to singer Adele.

"And y'all still wanna question if Rich Paul is the HIM," James wrote. "It says a lot about you if you're not feeling us. I told him less is more, it's plenty of us."

James also shared a meme clip of a man laughing as he slowly walked back into his car, with the tweet saying that's Paul after the first day of free agency.
