The media :lol:


wait..what? i'm trying to understand how this is logical math.

Kobe scored 33,643...there's is no math formula work up that allows for him not to have at least a thousand points vs a singular team. Hitting 30k alone allows for an average of 1k per team. Going over it guarantees that at least one team got 1k.
 
Let's be ******* clear ... Lebron has not won ... his style of play has gotten demolish by teams that play like teams. Hence his bad record in the finals.

Stop it.
 
Bron had 12 out of 18 team assist last night. Next closest assist man was Love with 2.

Ran across these Twitter threads last night....the lack of basic understanding of basketball is absurd. Peep the replies to the guys who rightfully criticize “Bron Ball”.





Doug Gotlieb is the first media member to call it what it is



Breh. That's wild. To give y'all insight on what I mean. I had a dude tell me today that Boston is immensely more talented than Cleveland and that Cleveland doesn't have the players to have a lot of ball movement. When I pressed him about Cleveland dismantling the Raps, as they are objectively as talented as Boston... Probably more, he said oh they're mental midgets. I mean, there's always something. And honestly, I'm not necessarily blaming just LeBron. Lue had been bad. They got rid of the two way players they did have. Management hasn't created a good culture. But at some point, you have to lay some of this blame at Brons feet. He's gotten what he wanted. He's being called the GOAT based on his amazing run this year. Yet he's got nothing to do with getting punched in the mouth by kids and responding by giving nothing on defense? I think they come back but if they go out this round... It's kind of a bad look on his legacy. Still all time great but this is just :smh:
 
I ask for 30 you post 31 and act like you went hella above and beyond wht i asked for

**** do yall watch games

im watching CLE get the brakes beat off them u watching that?
you asked if he's capable of dropping 30.
I answered the question.
If you saw the game yesterday you would see that love played well offensively. 22 and 15 on 50 percent shooting is good.
It's the defense that is soft.

You can’t eventually put the blame on Lebron, you put it on him NOW. The GOAT led by example and was able to galvanize his teammates. Lebron better learn how to do the same thing. The present will blame his teammates but history will say he was playing with an All-Star as well as one of the greatest 3 point shooters ever and went out to a rookie led team. Ironically Lebron is a basketball historian. Super nerd. He knows stats ain’t gonna save his *** in the grand scheme. LEBRON, DO MOARRRR!
 


Yea if This Continues this Series may be over in 5


in many of those clips, 3 to 4 houston defenders were standing around watching the ball handler dribble waiting to collapse on him. you couple this with the warriors' movement on offense and this lead to hella blown assignments and houston getting to shooters way too late. klay didn't even need to come off screens to get open. there's always talk about how the warriors utilize "illegal" off-ball screens to get shooters open and cause mismatches but you watch those clips (and a lot of the game) and they didnt even have to depend on picks. it's just porous team defense.

in that second to last clip, klay originally had capella and tucker defending him. when dray made that cut to the basket both dudes jumped on him and klay just leaked to the perimeter for an open 3. no reason why tucker had to collapse when capela is one of the better rim protectors in the league and was right there to contest. not sure why houston is getting so confused on assignments.

houston's gonna have to be disciplined with their defensive assignments if this gonna be a series

TBH, this has a lot of truth. Especially if the Dubs sweep the Celtics.

Im guessing that is for the playoffs
 
Boston would get smoked by GSW. Lets please stop it. Tatum, who i said was the best player in the draft during summer league, will be like a deer in headlights. Asking too much for him to play well.
 
There's no situation that any one player could go to that I can think could beat the Warriors.

It would have to be 2 all-star/all-nba players taking deep pay cuts to go to a team like Boston, Houston or San Antonio.

I think Lebron should just play where he'll be happy next season and give up on assembling a title contender.

Love 31 still got beat? They won that game. I don't get what you trying to say .

I dont mess with sports talk at all . And it probably was a reputation pick ain't even trying to do the comparison or bring it up for that reason.

Just showing what an awful defender LeBron has been all year . He plays no d unless it's a Chase down block. Total lack of effort . People kill Russ for not playing d but no one says a peep about LeBron because he's old / conserving energy etc.

I don't expect shut down , elite or for him to guard the best perimeter player but you got to at least give some effort.
 
fam...literally..you have to look in the mirror after this and be like...what makes me act this way man. CP needs therapy. This is unacceptable. Every time I see it it disgusts me. Bruh gotta still be haunted from his childhood. This aint hoops.
one of the most disgusting displays of manhood I've ever seen.
