    elephant bigger than the whole room. you can't play him and luka defensively. they need/want to play the same role (i continue to insist that lebron *could* play the 5 defensively but doesn't want to). until that's resolved by lebron's exit, we'll have these problems, imo.

    As @Slick2021 and I were discussing yesterday, we think he's gone. @Slick2021 is actually a really cool dude, too.

    I mean that. Nice guy.

    On topic, please retire LBJ.

    I think this is the last ride, unless we at least get to the Finals.

    Real, or creative editing?

    Some reason you had to post this melted gasbag with a video with him so close to the screen? The puke that comes out of his mouth is usually the worst part.

    There seems to be an uptick in in hate for my favorite player. They say if the hero sticks around long enough he becomes the villain.

    I’ve seen enough of the flopping- I’m not clicking on this one.
    Remember how fun this team was when LeFake was on the bench and Austin and Luka were lighting everyone up??

    There are to many chiefs and not enough Indians on this team. The king won't make the sacrifices. It's not your team anymore.

    You keep saying the same dumb stuff. He’s playing well and does play different positions on offense out there including on ball when needed and is scoring efficiently most of the time in this 12 or whatever game run since he got back into condition. With Reaves out especially. Luka sits too in case you hadn’t noticed. We need him on ball some of the time. And he’s making or trying to make the right passes when guys are open.

    Not sure that’s a fair take…

    I don’t remember this, but the real reason is he was breaking down and we got Doncic for him.

    Admittedly, it’s pretty frustrating to watch him play selective defense. He is still very capable when he wants to be.

    Man, they are really piling on my fav player these days. I hope this doesn’t affect his legacy as the GOAT.
