and don't forget, we are still learning the system. Lebron hinted at that after the game yesterday. Saying that his turnovers should subside after everyone learns the system better.
Lebron has always said a coach who holds both himself and the rest of the team accountable gets the best out of him and i think we are seeing a direct result of that. Imagine JJ as a coach for lebron 5-10 years ago. Yeesh
he's the all time leader in turnovers, so I call BS. Is that because all of his teammates never knew all of the plays like he did, and he just was always passing the ball where they should have been. hahahahahahahahaa. um no. still my favorite player But I want him to average a triple double for the benefit of the team this year and lead this team in rebounding. It''s what we need from him.
That is some rare company Surprising player that has done it 4 times https://www.landofbasketball.com/records/triple_double_seasons.htm
Is Ben Simmons still in the league? Who’s roster is he sitting on in street clothes pulling superstar salary this year?
Congrats on popping your T cherry! Not bad for a podcaster How'd i not know this existed? Move over Leo, JJ is coming the academy awards --- all of them.
Winning a b2b on the road without your starting PF, backup C, backup PF and backup of the backup PF is pretty amazing. Great job maximizing your other guys, Knecht, Max, Reddish, Koloko... 5 game winning streak. Type of example of how stupid is to argue in the internet (and I do it often). He was mocked and meme'd here, in Twitter and all over the web when he was hired. Doomsday narratives were created. He was defined as the worst coach in the NBA starting the season. Rob was considered a clown for hiring a podcaster. 13 games in and...crickets. Those people either disappeared from the boards (until we lose 3 in a row) or just focus on other stuff hoping no one noticed. And everyone moves on. Yet, if we started 4-9 they would be reminding us every day that they predicted this. Put this in repeat for any decision the FO does. Internet needs rankings. If you say stupid stuff, you should have a fixed signature with a warning saying "I was wrong about X, Y, Z" Even more relevant for writers and journalists. They should have a walk of shame. That's why I liked that thing NBA on TNT was doing, putting the big bets each one did in the board and get called out in the end of the season. At least they had to own their big takes and go through the shame of the missed ones. Like Irwin is a clown and should get fired for being so off on Lakers' prediction
He did not say the turnovers would go away completely. He has always had a lot of turnovers because he handled the ball so much and has been the focal point of all of his offensive systems. Heck, Magic used to have a fair amount of turnovers. For instance, Jokic gets more turnovers than Lebron. Magic career TO stats are higher than LBJ's. If you are going to hate on him, then hate on the others too.
He’s averaging 6pts, 6rebs and 7assists all while seemingly missing every other game. Crazy to think what he once was
I was never excited about JJ. I worried about him having Zero experience and I especially didn’t like the whole “abortion contract” thing he had with a previous girlfriend. So far, he’s shown to be twice the coach as Ham and surprised me with his solid rotations.
You mean, the “Superstar” who was infamously known as the dude who literally was scared to shoot? Yeah, that guy was awesome!
