    Looney and Green may be the worst offensive starting frontcourt of all time .

    Looney might struggle to finish over some of us at the rim and I'm just slightly exaggerating it.

    Green has an opinion on every single subject but he's averaging 5.9pts in 29.6 minutes and earns big bucks

    He's reaching the stage in his career, where it doesn't really make sense him taking guys off the dribble anymore.
    From my perspective, he looks much more comfortable in the post now going to those Dirk fadeaways rather than trying to beat people off his first step which isn't as quick as it used to be.

    An offensive tweek I've liked the last two games as he's either in the post for critical possessions or they're letting Schroeder attack 1v1 with Lebron setting screens and off ball. As long as Schroeder doesn't go crazy with the passes it works out well almost all the time

    Those Dirk fadeaways are money though.

    He really did not seem to break a sweat in either game, lol! Love seeing Lebron destroy the other team while barely trying.

    It feels like LeBron has unlocked the secret Trez code now. He could get 10 assists a game just setting Trez up.

    I love Trez in the paint. He is so strong and so quick. Plus he picks up a ton of fouls on the oppositions big men, rendering them almost useless. If I was running this team, my goal would be to use him and AD super strong in the first half, in the hope of getting the other team in foul trouble. Then AD and Bron clean up in the second half.

    The efficiency and ease Bron had pouring it on in the 2nd half was entertaining.


    Nasty!



    He does it so easily that it's almost easy to overlook, not register and fully appreciate

    It doesn't even seem he's playing that hard, actually. Like... 75% of what he can do in the playoffs.

    Yeah I’ve marveled at the fact that he didn’t even seem to break a sweat in these last two games where he’s got back to back triple doubles in back to back nights no less!

    His defense has been great this season , even better than last season .

    Should get DPOY consideration since we are the best in this area with a wide margin .

    He’s playing some of the smartest and best basketball I’ve ever seen right now. It’s just such a joy to watch. The efficiency is something to marvel at. 37 points in 37 minutes while shooting over 60% and still dishing out some of the sickest passes, swatting shots and grabbing boards. At 36 years old? It’s just unreal. He really should win MVP this year although Embiid has a great case as well.

    Shooting % night in and night out is impossibly consistently efficient. Unreal to score as many points as he does with as few shots as he typically takes.

    I thought he was going to be the MVP when the season started but man, if he can end up getting points for being in the DPOY consideration, that would be insane for a player in his 18th season. He's probably a lock for All-NBA defense teams which raises the question... the other MVP candidates are likely Harden, Embiid, and Jokic. If LeBron is a top defensive player as well, why shouldn't he be the MVP? Embiid is going to miss too many games and Harden should be disqualified from MVP for throwing a temper tantrum with the Rockets.

    Truly a freak of nature, but nobody beats Father Time. Got to enjoy special athletes and what they can do before it’s gone. Hopefully we can get a couple more deep playoff runs out of those old wheels.

    We’ve had in a row...

    Shaq
    Kobe
    Lebron

    has to fall off a cliff from here right? Definitely not sustainable to keep getting top 5 all time scorers in the league. That’s crazy.
