**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[drewsone]

It's pretty funny that LeBron with a subpar team around him in the East was basically a lock for the Finals EVERY YEAR. Comes to the West with a subpar team around him and not even gonna make the playoffs

East teams are def weaker but his teams were 100% tailored to him

He needs shooting bad lol

To be fair, I’m pretty sure those repetitive questions after every game gotta be extremely annoying

You've been trying to make this connection for a couple of weeks now, and I'm just not seeing it.

What exactly is making you think these answers are similar to the answers L3-6ron gives the media?

Raymond Felton is in the game

Toss sweep or half back dive

When u come from a championship team anything else will annoy you. Kyrie is a professional though, but he’s always been emotional. Dude is gonna let his feelings out.

Not tryna cape for Kyrie, but whose Boston’s second option? Brown has been one of the most overrated young players out there, way too inconsistent. Tatum is only in his 2nd year, can’t lean on him. Gordon Hayward might as well play with one leg, production will be the same. Horford took a step back this year. The team is full of very very good role players at this point. No one you can just give the ball to and they’ll take over.

Kyrie has got the right to be frustrated. There is no true second option. He severely lacks in leadership qualities though. Brad Stevens is the leader of that team. They’ll go as far as he takes them.

But when LeBron does it... its pouting?

Lakers need to trade kuzma while he still has value. Ingram clearly is the better prospect.

Lonzo Ball being the glue that holds the lakers together is insane though

You crazy trade him and do what with the team, dude is going to inherit the team once LeBron leaves. Sigh keep both dudes first it is get rid of Ingram when Kuz went for 41 in 3 quarters, now Ingram having back to back games and it is get rid of Kuz. Dudes are fine just need to feed off each other better when one has the hot hand. Guys were going to be solid in 2/3 years without LeBron and patience, but wanting microwave success and LeBron screwed things up.

You really don’t think having lebron around didn’t accelerate the growth of ingram and kuzma?

You trade kuzma because dudes with a body like ingram are few and far between. If he becomes even 60% of what KD is you got a pretty decent player there.

Like I mentioned before, Magic is too narrow sighted where he's either getting an MVP candidate or its nothing. He's missed so many opportunities to grow the team organically.

Other than drafting Kuzma and Bron deciding to join the Lakers (which he would have done no matter the GM) what exactly has Magic done?

Give up Randle, Lopez and D'lo for cap relief? Is that even a good thing?

QUALITY guys were everywhere and he looked right past them, damn anti Mitch Kup. Pissed they had Harris next door and didn't even explore that avenue. I think with a new coach these guys will look a lot better, however in the Laker thread we keep coming up with nothing on a good replacement. Mark Jackson is better than Luke but hell a bottle of water is better than Luke.

Lebron is self labeled as the “GOAT”. So he deserves all the slander. When you give yourself that label, you damn sure better be spotless on the resume. Kyrie is a true 2nd/3rd option that’s tryna be THE guy. Which he obviously isn’t.
