LeBron and Clarkson pulling their best KG rendition picking on the Euro

 

[rook]

I’m good on bron in philly.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Nance plays his role but does not affect a W or L

So much this. He just wants to stay out of the way

If Lebron Does in fact Go to Philly are they a good team yes, will they win a lot of games yes, are they anywhere near favorites to win a ring no, and will the development of the younger players be hurt 100% yes.

I get why Philly fans would be excited, but ya'll do realize that Lebron has never & will never play off ball right? Ya'll do realize that Embiid has one of the highest usage rates in the league & would be asked to essentially hinder his strengths. Ben Simmons will also see his usage drop & he will be much less effective getting the ball at the three & trying to score from those positions. Come playoff time Good teams will Stifle that squad.

Also the leader of your team is sending congratulatory messages the opposing players while your in the midst of trying to get to the playoffs.... but you know "leader of men"

 

[Cashflow]

But I thought Lebby makes ALL of his teammates better

IT Byke

Got his powers back.

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Lakers have a better offense than the celtics

 

[Moheezy]

I feel out buc em , but you can't make that comparison without taking into account Covington's usage and Lebron's usage. Covington isn't asked to play with the ball in his hands.

Lebron x Simmons would still make it work, but I don't think it would be as seamless as saying Bron is just a better Covington.

Co-sign Moheezy , they'd have to fire Brown and get the medical staff outta there. I also don't **** with Colangelo but I'm not sure how Bron feels about that.

Getting Colangelo out of there will be a huge win, but I don't think it will happen. Things are "good" right now and he's happily taking credit for it. I hate it.

The concern over Bron in philly is him stifling Simmons and Embiid. The team would win games but some of Simmons play making would vanish and I honestly can’t imagine Bron playing with a center that plays with his back to the basket a lot. Just don’t see embiid working out in the post while LeBron watches on.

 

[xxpizzo]

**** is so filthy, he does this move often in the same spot

 

[bballkid11]

NASTYYYYYY

 

[Moheezy]

**** is so filthy, he does this move often in the same spot

He does this almost nightly. It's just that it's against the Cavs that people take notice.

 

[bostoiah]

Embiid is nasty smh...

 

[buc em]

If LeBron is one of the top 3 players of all time then he should be able to make it work with any player no matter the fit, right?

The Raptors, Celtics or whoever else in the East is not beating this Sixers team in a playoff series with LeBron added to the roster.

Only a matter of time before we initiate you blood. You got one foot in already might as well gon head and hop in

If you think he's a top 3 of all time, sure I can see someone believing that.

I don't ...

Seems to me the Sixers are in the right path, why rush it at the expense of the future?

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Still can't get over Reggie calling towns Katmandu . His corniness is starting to win me over

Two things he isn't top 3 & we hear yearly that he improves all the players around him & somewhere around midseason that doesn't happen & those same players are exiled for not being good enough.

 

[jsindaa]

Covington is zero threat to do anything else on offense other than catch and shoot

This is literally the entire point and what people are saying. This is also exactly why you get clowned regularly. Put your shirt on. We know LeBron is better but this isn't 2K. LeBron being UNWILLING to play off the ball is the issue that SOME people see. Really not a difficult thing to understand.

Based on what?

This was the exact argument made this summer about why Harden and CP3 wouldn’t work and would be a complete failure.

Never!

ALA Forever!

Lonzo my dawg though.

[lynchpin33]

This throwing a bowl of soup that got JR suspended has got to be another thing that Bron is leaking out. Sounds far fetched tbh

 

[antidope]

Lol what.
