LeBron James Discussion: Not Returning To The Lakers

Time for trade

 

It IS early. Olympic hangover too I’d suspect with the legs. And all the young muscled bucks are teeing off on him.

 

If this is the version of Bron we should expect going forward, I'm not even sure I want any trades sacrificing the future for the present.

 

James seems to be hitting his annual 3pt shooting funk a bit early. 27 pts and 14 assits, doesn't exactly scream out washed by any means tho .

 

JJ needs to manage his minutes, and we need a valid backup.

Managing his final years we knew would never be a piece of cake. But if we are being objective, winning at the highest level is probably not very realistic.

 

Why not? We are only a couple of moves away right now. What we need to do, is lighten some of the regular season load on him, so he will still have gas left in the tank in the playoffs. AD too to a lesser extent.

 

3 ball went full Casper on him. He's basically doubling the attempts trying to fix it, so tonight we can expect 18 three point attempts from him.

Shots from inside there was much better tonight -- 63%.

Did a better, more focused job captaining the ship. Not nearly as sloppy as a few of the other recent games. 3 TOs. One of those was a no call kicked ball, so only 2 real TOs.

Speaking of officiating. That run of 4 awful no calls on him in a 2 minute span. Criminal! He shouldn't have quit on D , but that was unacceptable from the zebras.

 

ok

 

worst game of the season

time to start managing his minutes because it's obvious he's tired out there

 

He's not going to miss game at Miami
Maybe in Atlanta and it's not b2b

 

LeDecline.

 

The new Brick

 

4 last matches 0 out of 19 from 3. LeBron overtakes Korver...

 

Still my favorite player

 

He’s clearly struggling but I don’t think it should be a surprise to the team given his age. Definitely time to start managing his minutes and games played.

 

Kind of stupid to think he can play 82 games after he's successfully load manages for basically most of the last decade and after the Olympics. Frankly he looks both mentally and physically exhausted out there - just not seeing the game like he normally does.

Was really worried the Olympics were going to impact him and AD and looks like that is coming true.

 

offense isnt the only thing not good buddy but I guess if he never plays much defense anyways no need to mention it?
