    Why does the media always come up with the stupidest stats. :KobewaitingTW:

    “The only player in NBA history to pass the ball with his left hand while running at 18mph with a headband on and a dark colored arm sleeve on a Tuesday night in Dallas...

    Trying anything to keep fabricating this goat narrative. :Kobepuking:

    What an immature a** and poor veteran example for our developing young players.

    anti-clutch

    thankfully we had Kuzma to bail him out tonight. We need another scorer. I hope BI comes back with a vengeance and sees/learns something by watching.

    I don’t love the iso stuff to end games, but that’s his game, always has been, guys need to move and he’ll find them. Aside from that he was big when it mattered again, deep clutch threes, dunking on fools all game, 28/12/9, missed the triple double by one board. The poor free throw shooting I’m just coming to accept, at least he hit the last 2.

    I liked a few hustle plays he made. Left a few guys WIDE OPEN for 3's again, but I guess that's the norm now too.

    good with the bad

    Yeah we're lucky Olynyk sucks , Bron doesn't ever bother to contest ....

    Made enough offensive plays to win the game as usual.

    He wanted the game to be close against his buddy Wade though , felt like an exhibition game .

    We won it so no big deal

    That's exactly what it felt like. An exhibition game. Fart around with your fancy careless passes until the 4th quarter and try to make a run. Luckily it fell in our favor tonight.

    I didn't see this, but I'm perfectly ok with that. Maybe he's not so bad. I'll let myself out.



    :Laugh: :Lebronsmoking:

    On the real side, I'm glad I decided to cope and deal with his crap. I love ya'all and would miss you all if I was gone too long. efamily FTW!

    Pretty standard game from Bron but honestly I was kinda expecting him to s*** the bed. Since him and Wade separated, I always got the feeling Bron was taking it easy on him because of their friendship. I think Wade’s teams have usually won and Bron never looked too engaged.

    Luckily, he was at least engaged for the 4th quarter of this one and didn’t let Wade get a chance to tie just because they’re boys in and out of b-ball.

    The 2 free throws he made at the end though were highlight reel worthy the way he’s been choking those this season lol.

    I keep seeing people saying they never thought they would like him and even you seem to be slowly coming along. It makes me wonder if part of Bron coming to LA was him wanting to win over the fan base that pretty much hated him the most. Lakers have a huge fan base and they’ve always hated him because him and Kobe are always compared.

    That’s just a fact. I know a lot of you guys have other reasons for disliking him but all those reasons are secondary and when you choose to dislike someone the bias brings out all of the negative and hides the positive. I’m saying this as someone who felt it on the exact opposite side with Kobe. I hated him because legacy wise he was LeBrons direct competition and it altered my perception to want to focus on all his negatives and downplay the positives.

    Once I realized this I started being more objective and not let emotion and bias get in the way, I started really respecting Kobe. By the time he retired I was sad as hell and still wish to this day I never let dumb sports hate get in the way of greatness. I could’ve enjoyed a lot more of Kobe’s career.

    Present day, I have the same problem with KD and I want to enjoy what he does but it’s so f***ing hard. The guy is undeniably one of the best scorers ever but his choice to go to GS has made me do what I did with Kobe and choose to relish in his failures and ignore his positives.

    The KD situation is just something idk if I can ever get over though because it’s sooooo ridiculous and unheard of in any sport. I wonder if I’ll come around on him like I did with Kobe but idk.

    Another amazing game last night, sealed the deal (for the first time this season!) with two clutch free throws... too bad he missed that triple double.

    Feel like he's looked faster lately. Was he hurt before?

    Haha, too bad this didn't happen to CP3 or Harden.





    (shake head) wow. The consistency is what's most impressive.



    Yes! Please
