    Yeah. Knew we were due for one of these shots. He’s not wrong though.

    james harden makes less than 2/3 of lebron's salary. this is a big part of our margin-for-error problem.

    clips also have 20 million in useless expiring money that they can use to upgrade at the deadline, too.

    I suppose he can always opt out of his contract if he’s so unhappy

    It’s been the same team for 2 1/2 years.The only pass I give Rob is I don’t know what J buss is telling him.Other than that he’s not good at his job

    Then the GM has to make better decisions on the other roster spots.

    That no look walk away after he pushed DLO was some cold blooded passive aggression.

    The passive aggressive s*** is my least favorite thing about LeBron. Even if it were true that LeBron bore no responsibility for the current state of the roster (which it isn't), this doesn't help anything.

    If he's not going to try on defense...nobdoy else will

    JJ has to make the difficult decision and not play LeBron as many minutes esp when he refuses to play defense

    he's needed to be under 30mpg for a couple years now, imo. i guess the past two years one could argue that we struggled when he sat, so it was hard to do that. but not anymore.

    Thought he set the tone with his energy. This one mattered to him. Reggie repeatedly pointed out the pep in his step.

    Then he brought the noise with these

    I agree, can’t be relying on a guy who hasn’t played in a year. Maybe he plays, maybe he plays well, maybe he stays healthy once he plays. Maybe he doesn’t.

    I'd be shocked if he missed a game against Steph. That's his favorite matchup in the league.

    "Games" being played for Silver's benefit with the load managing stuff? Next game (not looking) maybe he just takes a breather because it looks winnable without him? Same with AD and the plantar bleep? (not saying he doesn't have it). (I had it for like 14 months about 10 years ago and can't imagine playing basketball with it at his level .... so Huge Props) But don't see a whole lot of pain winces from him during games other than when someone whacks him with a 2x4 and the ref just swallows his whistle.
