LABron James Discussion: Triple Triple Doubles

Did you just diss ZaZa?

But on a serious note, they have several solid role players I’d love to have. McCaw, Livingston, etc

 

Oh I f*** with this mentality! Screw this whole millennial mindset of how your home team needs to wait out till the big bad Dubs finish their reign...f*** that s***!

This soft a** version of the NBA is leading to fans getting soft a** mentalities (anti-MambaMentality). Gun for the champ or die trying.

All these 100 something to 100 something scores... Where's the f***ing D? Where's the hand checks? Where's the hard fouls? Where's bully ball?

Sorry to sound like an a** but Boogie is today's version of a tough guy. Yet he averaged 35+ minutes for the first time of his career this season and ends up going down at the tender age of 27. Meanwhile the Diesel got pummeled on a nightly basis (some his own doing of course) and at 27 he avg 40 minutes per game in a season that was capped off with a MVP and a title. Guess how many seasons he avg 35+ minutes per season before that MVP campaign? Six out of his first 7 seasons in the NBA! In his 19 years he didn't go down to a season ending injury till he was 37...All while dishing and receiving punishment in the paint and not doing this whole new big man fad of hovering around the 3 point line.

Then you got Kobe who was the youngest to reach 30K points before LaBron did. But did LaBron have to experience man on man defense like Kobe had to for his first 4 seasons? Players focused so much on offense that they needed a pass on mano y mano defense...So enter the zone defense. If Kobe had the entirity of his 20 year career scoring against a zone defense and not deferring to the MDE, his career scoring stats would pale LaBron's accolades. Add to that how every one wanted to be a "Kobe-stopper" during that era, but in today's league you ain't got but a handful of players that pride themselves on D. Soft!

The glory days are over and now we have this s***...So I guess go get me players that thrive in this soft a** version of the NBA...Get me LaBron and let's go get us a title against these supposed world beaters that are the Dubs...Smfh...these boys couldn't hold Shaq and Kobe's jock strap in the man's league of yesteryear. And holy s*** would they get punked in Jordan/Bird/Magic/Isiah's era (when hand-checking was allowed).

 

i'll be like trump and put some blame on the press. it wasn't until all the bloggers got credentials and started using their pulpits to influence the league office that we ended up with "efficiency masters" like harden and guys like dantoni being considered geniuses instead of gimmick artists.

but anyway, yes, let's compete: the "championship or don't try" line is super lame. that's a loser's mentality dressed as a winner's. this is too hard, let's give up--i mean...let's wait until the moment is right, then STRIKE! nevermind that that moment is in the ever-receding future. #theprocess

 

It's Cowturd so who knows?

 

Is this something worth me watching? Not a fan of Colin. But everyone knows how much I love a LeBron to the Lakers story.

 

It's worth your time.

 

So if he goes to the Clippers is it finally ok to wish for him an injury like Kobe and Boogie's achilles or something major like that? Clippers curse and all being what it is.

 

Well if Lebron goes to the Clips, he would be able to control coaching choice and probably bring in his players too.

 

Colin said moves are being made LOL, it's the Clips

 

Oh yeah, i'm sure Jerry will allow that. Haters

 

I doubt that he has a big interest in the Clippers ...

 

Will still be in LA. Be able to call himself the Clipper's savior. Can probably can Doc as coach, pick his next yes man. Less back bone in the front office, can bring in his guys.

 

You know Logo works for the tennants, right?

 

Do you really think the clips value him more than Bron? Wouldn't bet my money on that
