    Whelp, there goes our ability to build a competitive team.
    I don’t mind LeBron extending, but since he only plays half the floor, he should be making $30 million per, instead of 60.
    Man, the Scouting Department will have to find another four Austin Reaves in order for us to be good.

    The Lakers only care about winning chips!

    Unless you can milk an aging star for sold out arenas and merch

    yeah, play-in year after year. like i've repeated--as long as he doesn't make us empty the chest of picks so that we can finish 8th instead of 10th, he can stick around and hoard the cash.

    Year 21. Can still dial it up and be the best player in the league.

    Bron in the 4th: 19
    Clipps in the 4th: 16

    Oh yeah and he picked up Kawhi on defense in the 4th.

    Biggest comeback of the year because Bron kicked the Clippers out of the arena.

    Biggest 4th Q comeback of his career.






    Maybe hold off on kicking him off the team.

    Sit him.

    Rui and Spencer should be able to complete the revenge matchup all by themselves. Wiz are not serious people.

    just amazing what he's still capable of with nearly 21 seasons under his belt along along with so many deep playoff runs and olympic appearances

    don't think we'll ever see anything else like it

    The Old Man really was amazing tonight.
    He gets respect from me for leading that comeback on BOTH ends of the floor.

    Man that was faaaantastic. Bombing three after three to bring us back and slowly close the gap took me back to the Kobe clutch days. In year 21 to do this is just insanity.

    Props to Lebron for a vintage performance. More impressed with how he defended Kawhi in the clutch.

    I always thought it was interesting how players get credit for coming back when they played crappy and gave away a big lead from the very beginning. I also noticed the last couple baskets did not come from LeBron. That last two minute squeeze really does get to some players, but at least he played defense.

    :Brows:

    nice way to send off the tenants from our building. Too bad they didn’t have PG or have excuses left in their mind. But it’s still a nice send off.

    Rui bricked an open 3: looked like it was going to be costly just like those open missed 3's against Phoenix. Lebron doesn't care and sets him up for another open 3: drills it and then Rui is confident and attacks the closeout the play after.

    Luka has basically copied prime Lebron offense but there's a reason so few guys can do this - the combination of multi-level scoring plus passing plus will is rare.
