    Who has, days before turning 37, a 30-point trip-dub with 3 blocks, hunting down layups for a block from behind still.... that just days after another trip-dub and another 30 pt performance. In the top 6 on scoring, still taking it to the rim with strength and force. Despite the injuries we've seen over the past couple of years he's still nothing short of a physical marvel.

    You guys don't know what a crab dribble is?.

    When I play basketball, my main move is the crab dribble.

    It's how I score most of my points.

    Nobody @ my local rec center can stop my crab dribble.

    They even call it out, and say, " he's going to do his crab dribble!", but I still score.

    Gary Payton and Chris Webber on the crab dribble, classic moment. Someone needs to put these 2 back in the studio again. Plus bonus Pau footage at the end.

    they both are by the rules as i understood them growing up, but neither is now.

    the sidestep three is more egregious because the player doesn't even release on the second step.

    I think the league simply decided to let some things slide. There's no way the stepback 3 isn't a travel if we're going to go strictly by the rules.

    Well...they let Jordan slide for years on switching his pivot foot on post ups.

    Well Lebron travels on that spin move to the basket every single time. Both feet shift when he does the spin. I'm shocked it hasn't been called yet.

    I know that's what I said too right up top when it was noted he hasn't done that move yet to show he's 100% back. Was joking but also serious. But what the hell .... he's our crab dribbler now ... smoking fools at the rim. :rock:

    I always wince when he does those in traffic though, afraid he's going to step on someone's foot.

    Do we know who will be starting tonight now that Dwight, THT, and Malik may be out? Do we know if they WILL be out? Safety protocols do not mean positive test, apparently, as we saw last time with LeBron.

    If those 3 have to stay isolated, LeBron will have to pull out 2018 version of himself tonight and take it over from the get-go. But with him almost being 37, it's scary to ask that of him coming off these injuries. Wondering how all this is going to fall before we hit the heavier teams coming up

    assuming the entire roster is vaccinated, they'll be out because they tested positive. only unvaxxed players get put into the protocol for being close contacts
