ReysonDrabek:
LOL You used his regular season averages you slowpoke! When people are soo stupid they just make assumptions based on what other people say this is what happens. He averaged over 11 points in the first round including 15 and 24 points in game 4 and 5. Whats that word you like to use again? OLODO!

Lmaooo what a clown!!

What happened to the first 3 games where Pippen dropped. Wait for it.... 0, 6 and 8 points and the Bulls still picked up 2 wins. Quoting half ass information like a halfwit

ReysonDrabek:
Yeah and your man needed an all time great coach and teammate(s) so yeah i'm yet to see who has won without a good team, Nowitzky included.

Ok Captain Obvious. What are we supposed to do with this new piece of information

ReysonDrabek:
The differences is they arent fawning over him, for every "bronsexual" theres an even louder hater, a bayless for the sharpe, a smith for the kellerman etc. No one was calling him black jesus. Some people just hate him cause hes better than that bald byum.

Everybody knows the average Bronsexuals are the most insufferable set of sports fans known to man. Never mind the Super nuisances with platforms like Sharpe and Nick Wright who is the leader of your Dravidianesque cult

Larry Bird called him Jesus in Sneakers. The GOAT was very well respected and feared among his peers

ReysonDrabek:
LOL! Keep denying it all you want. And PS, Kobe is barley top ten, not in the same convo than bron, every ration person knows this.

The players don't agree with you. I take their opinion over codeine slurping hermits who never stepped on a basketball court

ReysonDrabek:
LOL, When did i ever claim that? Now you're lying SMH! Lose the argument in peace you b-tch as punk!

[quote author=ReysonDrabek post=77509032]LOL And what did they do when lebron was absent, kuzma was bricking shots and the lakers fa.g base were asking for ingram to get traded. Somehow even without lebron playing thats lebrons fault too yes? if his arrival disrupts growth, why didnt it [b]disrupt kyrie since he was averaging similar numbers as ingram? [/b]why did kyrie continue to grow with lebron? maybe the young guys arent as good as they thought, maybe the lakers just cant improve them.

What is wrong with this Internet DMX?

I can see your Multiple Personality disorder is at work again. Who wrote this? Your alter ego?

Lmaooo why do I even bother with someone that is neck deep in identity crisis

ReysonDrabek:
But didnt you say lebron disrupts development and "throws it out the window"? LMAO! The dunce doesnt even know what hes arguing about.

Your comprehension skills are pathetic. Half the roster of young players almost got traded, Zubac was traded and you're still disputing that development is not a priority when you land a LeNomad. Comparing Kyrie Irving who was already an all-star and all-star game MVP to Lonzo Ball, Ingram and Kuzma.

No wonder you were equating Ingram to Kyrie, because you process information like a donkey

ReysonDrabek:
You mean trade talks is what did the lakers not injuries and suspensions. Why were they in a position where they needed him to make another push if not injuries and suspensions? what kind of daft logic are you using?

Suspensions? From the first week of the season? Lmao this boy is on crack.

LeNomad went down with 48 games left, returned with 32 games left and the Lakers were only 2 games out of contention. In that crucial time window their only major absentee was Lonzo Ball. You're out of excuses

ReysonDrabek:
So i'm supposed to take a list that has kevin durant kobe and iverson in the top five with kobe ahead of kareem and mj ahead of lebron seriously, LMAO! Not everyone is a naive plonker like you.

Your opinion counts for fückall!! What part of this do you not understand?

ReysonDrabek:
Right because when lebron went to cleveland he knew he was facing GSW in the finals. How can lebron be afraid of a notorious choker? LMAO

Who cares? LeNomad's choking history is well documented

ReysonDrabek:
Yeah shooting 41% from the field and 20% from three

What's the average FG percentage of 40 year olds in league history.

ReysonDrabek:
We've seen how derozan performs, we know how he will perform.

The GOAT has no history of choking. DeRozan has more in common with LeNomad than the GOAT

ReysonDrabek:
Oh wow lebron was blocked in a regular season game by a white 6'8 dude on a team not making the playoffs

When some of MJs best opponents in the playoffs were Jeff hornacek and mugsy bogues

A 14 win team at that. Where he went on an epic brickfest in the 4th. You should be ashamed

And yeah Hornacek was a key part of the team that beat Olajuwon, Drexler and Barkley. TWICE!! and once swept Shaq, Eddie Jones, Van Exel and a baby Kobe. Also beat them how many times overall? You guessed it. TWICE!!! Put some respeck on his name

SmooshCHN:
You sure sey that movie get morals so?

Well it will probably make you give your life to Christ

ReysonDrabek:
Because i'm not raving about a simplistic facile show that glorifies sex nudity and violence? Its just tits and dragons mate.

If you want to watch a show on morals go and watch Agbara nla by Mountain of Zion Ministries and stop the bloodclart crying

ReysonDrabek:
Fvck Game of Thrones! the most overrated TV show of all time. Trash!!

Smh. Why do you have such poor taste?

steady986:
I'm very sure you listened to Shannon's argument on this so I'm not even going to comment

What's my business with Shannon's argument? He's just another notorious Bronsexual for all I know

ReysonDrabek:
You claim you're being facetious yet you post a dumb picture. And if pippen contributed to MJs playoff success why not use his playoff numbers? Right because then pippen would have 4 categories and hughes would have 3. Thats assuming were working under the empty headed assumption that a player that played less than 45% of regular season games is why a team made the playoffs. Bunch of disingenuous schlemiels.

I did use his playoff numbers but you can barely read so I'm not surprised.

The purpose of the image was to show how little Pippen contributed to the GOAT advancing the first round Captain Pedantic. 7pts, 10pts the issue is highlighting how infinitesimal Pippen's contributions were and reminding the world of Bronsexuals and their stewpid tendencies and burying the myth pushed for eons

ReysonDrabek:
Theres a difference between seeing someone and the nostalgia and mystique that allowed MJ to dupe everyone into thinking hes some god. There were no skip bayless's to sh-t on a mans legacy, every game wasnt available so his stinkers were swept under a rock. The NBA did a great job marketing him though i'll tell ya that. I have 27 year old friends who say MJ is the goat, i ask them why and they cant elaborate, all they know is that hes the GOAT. Same reason casuals believe Ali is the GOAT, not to speak ill of a dead man but on boxing terms only, i can name three or boxers better than him.

There were also no active Bronsexuals like Nick Wright who inundate us with fake hype and noise about a player who has always needed two all-stars to win a ring

The NBA and ESPN has done an arguably better job hyping LeNomad but people are not fooled. The OG's like Ray Allen who was teammates with LeNomad and faced the GOAT in his latter years has on numerous occasions pointed Jordan as the GOAT, Larry Bird called him Jesus in Sneakers. The players of today have unanimously voted Jordan the GOAT but some codeine slurping hermit who has never stepped foot on a basketball court and couldn't dribble out of a wet brown paper bag thinks otherwise

ReysonDrabek:
My point is the gulf is closing and the narrative will change. Certain demographics think kareem/wilt is the goat. Its the cycle of life, its irrelevant.

The gulf is closing? Yes I agree. The perceived gulf between Kobe and LeNomad. Lmaooooo. What a joker! Even with LeNomad's most recent achievements fresh in memory what we are seeing is LeNomad is closer to Kobe than LeNomad is closer to the GOAT

ReysonDrabek:
Again which other instance has he played with young player(s) except cleveland act ii and LA?

You claimed literally the exact opposite. You said lebron impedes the growth of young players.

Shut up!

You claimed Kyrie was doing Ingram numbers which was a bold faced lie else he would not have been a two time all-star before LeNomad came.

What I then said was arrival of LeNomad means no time for player development, which isn't even an indictment on LeNomad per se when you consider the circumstances critically but then the overzealous Bronsexual in you kicked in

A player that's already at all-star level by his 2nd and 3rd year. You need a seance to tell you he would keep improving by his 4th, 5th and 6th season when he would be entering his prime? Smh

ReysonDrabek:
But lebron didnt ask for him to be fired. Its like saying your boss doesnt like you and wants to fire you, then someone else comes on the ship and you get fired then you blame the person not the boss who has been trying to fire you in the first place.

It's not about asking, it's about enabling a toxic environment that makes it easier for the fall guy to get the axe. The fall guy being Walton.

ReysonDrabek:
Many reasons why the team imploded, that was far from the nail on the coffin. when your best starting 5 plays less than 30 games together you are in deep.

Many teams are dealing with adversity all over the league. The Nuggets lost 3 of their starting 5 for long stretches too. The issue is there was a critical stage the season could have been salvaged and that was from LeNomad's return to the trade deadline. Anybody pining on another reason is just clutching to excuses

ReysonDrabek:
Like i said, kobe ahead of kareem, durant and iverson at number 5. Very credible indeed.

No list will ever be 100% satisfactory so migrate with your straw clutching. What we're telling you is that in every GOAT debate whether among analysts, casuals and the people who actually played the sport in these different eras, the only GOAT that has been constant whether via eye test or even analytics (despite playing in a non analytics era) is Jordan

ReysonDrabek:
next time when you're using the word GOAT try being more specific, your goat comes with a silent p which stands for pseudo. a bald athletic demar derozan who will never compare to the real GOAT, King James, the slayer of 73 win teams not the rider of 72 win teams. Destroyer of athletic freaks not the bully of white accountants and stockbrokers.

The difference between the GOAT and that nomadic migrant imposter is that while LeNomad was gathering help from Kyrie and others to try and barely beat a jump shooting team whose best player was 6ft 3 and barely 180 pounds the GOAT was the Dragon.

The Cohiba smoking GOAT at 40 came back to the league in 02 and still dropped 23-6-5. I can only imagine how badly he would destroy this era of floppers where you can't even hand check ball handlers and guys like James Harden flop their way to the line every night

Karma is when you swear the GOAT played with plumbers only for LeNomad to get blocked at the buzzer by a European named Mario. Tough scene

NPComplete:
Hahahaha. I swear. Jon Jones will rape his ass. The guy couldn't even finish the 44-year-old spider who has been out of practice for about 2 years. He needs to calm down and learn how to wrestle before even talking about Jones.

Let him test himself against Joel Romero and Whitaker first. If he can beat Yoel Romero with his head still attached to his shoulders then I will root for him against Jones.

Jones is a big problem for anyone.

Lool Anderson Silva is a tough nigga though. For you to finish am you go try. For me Izzy and Jones is a bad mismatch

I want Izzy to keep dominating in Middleweight. He should fight the pullout merchant Whittaker first. 'New Zealand' vs Australia things

Jon Jones should go to Heavyweight and fight the likes of Cigano and Ngannou. I don't know what else he wants to prove at LH

jidobaba:
Miocic wants a rematch with DC or nothing.

Lol he needs to go to the back of the line. He's not fought in 8 months

Running out of excuses for Vettel at this point. Smh

tobianthony:
Man I ain't gone lie , I was so scared , Gastellum's boxing is something else . Izzy had to go all out in the 5th .

I couldn't quite call round 3 .

Gastellum gave him a very tough fight.

Congrats boys .

Woohoo

I thought Gastellum had him in the 4th. I'm very surprised he didn't finish him off.

Izzy needs to work on his defense a bit.

And all that Jon Jones talk. Lmaooo I beg make e just be for bants. He doesn't want that smoke at all

Take a Bow!! And newwww interim middleweight champion of the world. Style bender!!

Fight of the Year already. And we're only in April.

Izzy should win this 3-2 unless them wan do ojoro. Though them kpokpo him face small sha

Gastellum dropped again. This fight is mental

Gastellum has stones though. Didn't think this would get to 5

Izzy for the WIN!! Spinning elbow aye!

This man is Jon Bones in Middleweight I swear. Easy money

Lmaooooo KD and Patrick Beverley ejected

ReysonDrabek:
Oh so now you were being sarcastic

You wouldn't know cos you don't pay attention

ReysonDrabek:
Quit it man, you tried to push a narrative and i decimated it. This whole ruse wont help you save face. You meant it when you said it. Just admit it was a dumb thing to say.

You don't learn you just like to think you're teaching. Look at the image posted below. That was the reason for the narrative I brought on here.

ReysonDrabek:
LMAO The same players who voted iverson in the top 5, same players who voted kevin durant in the top five, same players who voted kobe more than kareem. Yeah they seem like real geniuses.

I don't have time to nitpick irrelevant aspects of the list. The message is clear for anyone who cares to listen. I would take the opinions of the players who have probably faced both players over yours and other unrepentant Bronsexuals like Nick Wright

ReysonDrabek:
Of course of the players in the league today grew up watching MJ, ask the players in the next ten years. I think this rookie class was asked the same question. Go check the result.

The average age in the league is probably 25 if not less. There is a higher likelihood anyone drafted after 2006 has seen more LeNomad than MJ

Sorry I'm more interested in an expansive survey like this one. The gulf screams loudly.

ReysonDrabek:
Which other young player has he played with that you can base your argument on? There are two instances you can point to with lebron and young talents. BTW, ingrams scoring numbers have also gone up from last year so he IS progressing in his own way. Miss me with that dumb narrative.

If you can't bring out any young player doesn't this buttress my point?

This was my point ab initio so shut up

ReysonDrabek:
His job was under threat long before lebron signed.

And LeNomad's arrival was the coup de grace

ReysonDrabek:
LMAO Youre changing the goal post again. From it killed them to it didnt help.

What's the difference? Did it help? Did the team not implode?

ReysonDrabek:
Yeah like i said, real geniuses

Yes. They actually play the sport so their opinion is credible unlike most talking heads that cannot dribble their way out of a paper bag or identify a pick and roll set

ReysonDrabek:
LOL! Yeah phil actually won the Nba championship in his first FULL season in charge.

Pat didnt just win in his first season he made the showtime lakers who they were.

So coaching lebron plus kyrie and k love is starting from the bottom?

"Showed more competence" ty lue won in his first season after going 3-1 down and would have won more if it wasnt for that skinny prick what the hell are you even talking about man?

89/90 was his first full season. FFS what are you smoking nigga?? You initially claimed Phil Jackson led the Bulls last the first round, I've shown that as false yet you're typing more fallacies

Yes. But he had zero head coaching accolades before he took over. He was not a made man either and owes his success to the talents he had at his disposal as well

No one said Blatt started from the bottom but the fact is injuries to Kyrie and Love mean we would never really know what happens if they were healthy. In their second season he had won 30 games at the midway point of the season. He was sacked with a .73 record FFS

Who cares if Ty Lue went 3-0 down? Last I checked the series started 0-0.

ReysonDrabek:
You prove yourself first by showing you have potential. This bampot really expected david blatt or mike brown to turn into pantheon great coaches. News flash nyarf, these guys just dont have it. [b]Phil carried the bulls out of the first round in his first season, a feat they couldnt achieve consecutive years prior, [/b]pat won a title in his first season. This dolt thinks david blatt who has still not coached an nba team since and mike brown were going to become great coaches. daftness at its peak

I thought you were being deliberately obtuse but it's apparent to me now that you're actually obtuse obtuse

The Bulls had gotten to the Eastern Conference Finals before Phil Jackson was head coach you lying crazeman. Pat Riley took over a team that had won the title in 1980.

Don't come here and spin lies like these coaches came and started from the bottom.

I never claimed Blatt would be great or not but he showed more competence than his replacement considering the circumstances. Some people never get more than one chance. That's just how life works

ReysonDrabek:
Dude, this dimwit claimed larry hughes played 36 games and hes the one that got the cavs into the playoffs and im the clown!

Helped the Cavs get into the playoffs. Helped. I'm applying the same logic Bronsexuals use when they claim Scottie Pippen helped the GOAT get past the first round

ReysonDrabek:
Let me do the math for you since you are too stupid to see the gaffe you just committed. It means the cavs were 27 19 without him and still on pace for the playoffs without him. Legendary levels of foolishness here, you cant make this shit

because larry hughes 36 games got the cavs into the playoffs LMAO! I dont know what you do now but you will make a spectacular jester.

This does nothing to refute the point that based on Bronsexual logic Larry Hughes got the Cavs in the playoffs. I don't have time for the rest of your 'On pace' megedefegede. It does not disprove the point

If Pippen and his 10ppg on 40% shooting got the GOAT past the first round, then Larry Hughes most certainly got LeNomad into the playoffs.

ReysonDrabek:
Again when did i ever claim pippen is why phil jackson made the playoffs? Stop applying your foolishness to me.

Lol this clown is being deliberately obtuse. What does Phil Jackson have to do with the argument? The Bulls had crossed the first round before he became coach.

You're in denial. 73% of players in the league think MJ is the GOAT. But skinny jeans wearing hermit LeNomad fanboys are frothing in the mouth all over cyberspace like a camel in heat

ReysonDrabek:
LOL! Now its trajectory, but didnt you say lebron stunts young players growth? So ingram and co dont have a trajectory? the man is turning into a statistician to defend his foolishness

Are you not ashamed that in how many seasons you can only point to one player who was already a surefire star (2 All-star appearances and an All star MVP) that was already doing 21-5 as proof that LeNomad grows players. Lmaooo smh at this desperate crazeman

ReysonDrabek:
But you said lebron is why he got fired, come and explain.

But you also claimed lukes firing was lebrons fault

Stop chatting like a simp! Whose arrival put Luke Walton's job under threat?

ReysonDrabek:
There a difference between winning in the regular season and winning a ring. Go ask D'antoni.

What does this have to do with Blatt? Would Lue have won without Love and Kyrie?

ReysonDrabek:
What kind of dumb logic is this? appreciate it or not its part of the game and you need to learn to live with it. Stop trying to claim its the reason the lakers were losing!

It's common sense. We've seen numerous athletes sign deals with no trade clauses. Just the other day we saw Harrison Barnes and Derrick Rose and their reactions to getting traded. It's a far from ideal scenario and can hurt a player's performance

No one said it's the reason why they were losing. But it surely didn't help their cause. Jeeeeez why are your comprehension skills so poor?

ReysonDrabek:
Thank God Phil was in fact the GOAT, plus he had jordan. So what are you talking about? its not all about pippen.

You're desperately confused

ReysonDrabek:
Yeah thats awful but punching your team mate is great leadership. I had a mediocre day but you're cheering me up, clown!

Boohoo. Players fight in practice all the time. Beats your teammate questioning your commitment to basketball in public.

The players know who the GOAT is

donlittle25:
person wey just hear about NBA phew

Ignore the clown. What were Phil Jackson, Greg Pop and Pat Riley's head coaching achievements before coaching these greats? Talking as if they were proven commodities

Kyle Lowry. 0-7. Smh! DeRozan's playoff choking partner

ReysonDrabek:
Have you stopped to think that all these all time greats had all time great coaches?

Magic got Pat Riley, MJ had Phil and so did kobe and shaq, timmy had pop. who did lebron get?


That last part is how i confirm you're a pathological liar. Most people blamed lebron calling him a choker and rightfully so. If anyone was blaming spoelstra hed be gone! Stop spinning narratives to suit this dumb agenda. You have the chance to get pat riley to coach you and he shouldnt jump at it? LMAO! Clown!

I know this is an oxymoron since you don't think but have you stopped to think that most of these all-time great coaches had zero pedigree and titles but allowed themselves to be coached by these would be all-time great coaches?

Greg Pop, Phil Jackson, Pat Riley all had zero championships and in some cases zero head coaching experience. Maybe if they had to coach in today's generation with a coach Killer like LeNomad who knows how their careers would have ended?

If David Blatt and Spoelstra had their asses on fire and Blatt got the axe even with a 30-11 record the year after the Cavs lost the finals in unfortunate circumstances. Who says those greats would have gotten a chance to shine?

You're a Muppet else you would always apply context when dropping analogies

Coach Spoelstra was under some heat as well not just LeNomad. Don't come here and try to revise history. The Heat were under intense scrutiny all season long because of their average start which led to them finishing second in the East behind the Bulls.

These lower seed teams are not here for games

ReysonDrabek:
welp, the lakers have nothing to do with this wager. its about how the kings perform. we'll see.

They have everything to do with it. Some tools will at least get to see that in a less chaotic setting perhaps Luke wasn't the problem

ReysonDrabek:
Because non of these star players are called Lecoach killer or LeGm etc. None of the stars are treated like theyre responsible for all the bad decisions their front office makes. Lebron is.

Lebron obviously didnt want spoelstra, he wanted Pat and rightfully so.

LeNomad is not the first superstar to have that Coach Killer tag on him. Magic was kind of a coach Killer too.

The point with LeNomad is with all his stops he is the only player that has had this drama across 3 different franchises. Different people, different tradition from a history standpoint. Only one constant. LeNomad

That's the problem. Even in the first season that LeNomad shat the bed against Dallas it was still Spoelstra feeling the heat. Why would Pat want to come back and coach? He had been doing so for over two decades!! His unwillingness to give Spo a fair audience says it all really

ReysonDrabek:
LMAO! Marc Gasol was also dpoy at some point, doesnt mean hes the mark gasol you get today. The larry hughes the cavs got was half the player dion waiters was. And BTW, Larry Hughes played 36 games for the cavs that season. GTFOH with that dumb narrative.

Lmaooo what a clown!! Are you comparing Marc Gasol's example to a guy that went into the Cavs team as an all-defense first teamer?

We have already established you know zilch about hoops when you compare a certified brick mason like Dion Waiters to Larry Hughes who scored and defended better and actually helped teams make the playoffs.

Yes and in those 36 games the Cavs were 23-13. Olodo

ReysonDrabek:
No one credits the pippen alone with the GOATs success, the triangle offense plus MJ played a role too.

This is a well parroted narrative. Don't feign ignorance

Bronsexuals think Pippen's 10ppg got the GOAT past the first round. So we can apply the same rule to Larry Hughes

ReysonDrabek:
LMAO Stop dancing around the bush, polished or not you claimed young players dont improve with lebron. Heres proof that its another stupid narrative because kyrie improved even with lebron. Im not necessarily saying its because of him, but you saying that is just stupid.

Kyrie's trajectory was set without LeNomad. In fact if you look closely his numbers were more or less the same as he was averaging before barring the Warriors series where he exploded. Kyrie was a bonafide star before he came to Cleveland so that example is fa fa fa foul!!

ReysonDrabek:
Im sorry didnt this guy just claim its lebrons fault magic is gone? so its because of lebron magic is incompetent

You're still not paying attention. Nobody ever said Magic didn't display incompetence at different stretches

ReysonDrabek:
LOL but if he had been fired then knowing what you know now about magic wanting to fire him long ago, how is that lebrons fault? and griffin admitted blatt was a tank coach becayse they didnt know lebron was coming otherwise they wouldnt have hired him. How is blatts firing lebrons fault?

Nobody talked about Luke getting fired till this season started going awry. Firing Luke was a cop out and Magic's mea culpa for his own gaffes. I think I said it here.

Lmaooo. You're telling me a coach that was fired despite a 30-11 record off a season he got to the NBA Finals was just about correcting some hiring mistake?

ReysonDrabek:
So all the NBA players that deal with trade talks and hostile crowds and still perform arent human beings? LOL! Funny thing is ingram and kuzma noticeably took their game up a notch during this period but with lebron and others injured there was only so much they could do. Some were saying they were playing well cause they didnt want to be traded.

Exactly. The players performing despite trade talks is the exception and not the norm and speaks to their talent. No professional athlete appreciates being traded without their consent. It's absurd to expect that young players in their second year won't have their feelings hurt in some way. It's not an excuse but it's a pretty plausible explanation if they struggle

ReysonDrabek:
There was only so much phil could do, pippen was destined for greatness. Lebron tried his best and all his teammates have attested to that. In the end so many things happened outside his control from injuries to suspensions. It is what it is. All they can do is move on, get a FA and possibly trade for another star. They werent going to win the chip anyway.

Lmaooo did you see Pippen's early numbers? He was very far from a sure thing

What a leader wouldn't do is publicly question their commitment to basketball like LeNomad did. With his body language, with his words this was one of the worst displays of leadership I've ever seen from a vet

ReysonDrabek:
Your comment has been archived.

I daresay if both teams stand pat Luke Walton finishes with a better record than the Lakers

Khanben:
His poor scouting culture wasted a 2nd pick on lonzo when better players were still available in the 2017 draft. Tatum, d Mitch, and even fox who dropped 30 something on Lonzo.
The funniest thing about the blame Lebron camp is that you guys have made him into a god who controls all that there is around him. So Magic was not interested in accelerating the Lakers timeline when he called a 15 year veteran's agent during free agency.
Stop with these nonsense and let's talk basketball if not objectively but at least like someone who has followed the league long enough.
So what you want people to somehow believe is that lebron comes from Cleveland, and starts calling the shots with Jeannie and co watching in awe at his intellect. Please bring up plausible arguments and I might drink whatever coolaid you are trying to sell

You don't get it. No one has said Magic is not to blame. Everybody here has been flogging Magic on this thread since last year

But if you think a player that calls himself King doesn't want to have hands on control wherever he finds himself then you're not paying attention. Whether he gets it is another thing. But don't tell me he's never played a part in any coach losing their jobs or trying to get them to lose their jobs. He wouldn't be the first star to pull that stunt so I don't know why people are so defensive

There is a difference between having the final say and suggesting he has no say, which is what you're trying to say. Mike Spoelstra so far is the only guy who LeNomad didn't want that somehow managed to keep his job because Pat Riley stood his ground. Being on the wrong side of LeNomad will cost you your job. It's happened not once, not twice

SmooshCHN:
Lue was frustrated and that's the frustration talking. I'm just surprised if the Lakers are just stupid at this point. Lue was a foot mat on the Cavs. Cavs fans and the LeStans in the media used him as an excuse when the Cavs failed. We heard about how he didn't know how to draw plays or make use of the rotations (same thing with Luke Walton) but he's now the front runner for the Lakers job. This either means he's a genius all of a sudden or he's coming because he's LeBron's guy. Same way he took over from David Blatt. A40 point makes sense now. I'm not saying Bron got Luke fired. I'm just saying his presence definitely is so strong not to make a connection to what is going on right now. You'd have to be a LeStans to not think his presence, actions or body language is not a big factor here. Cos I don't see any reason Ty Lue should be the front runner for the job if it had nothing to do with Bron. Maybe both of them are padi but Lue would be foolish to want to experience what he experienced on the Cavs.

Death, Taxes and being the scapegoat should everything go wrong when working with LeBron are constant in life. Might not be his fault but history has shown that you'd definitely be the scapegoat thanks to LeStans.

If not to make LeNomad happy why would Lue be in the running for Lakers coach. Lol

etidy:
Walton joining the kings, good for him

Just the team he needed. Watch him work Magic with these bunch (pun intended)

ReysonDrabek:
Larry Hughes. LOOOOOOOOOL! The dion waiters you are making fun off is better than larry hughes. Dont compare lebrons ascendance with kyries, its not fair. Theyre not in the same league. Lebron averaged 27 7 7 in his second year then went on to average 30+ his 3rd year when they made the playoffs. Kyrie won like 30 games in his third year.

Larry hughes

Dion Waiters better than Larry Hughes? You must be smoking something dangerous

Larry Hughes was first team all defense and led the league in steals the season before he came to help LeNomad. That's who you're comparing to Dion Waiters. #facepalm

You don't want to give Larry Hughes credit yet you Bronsexuals are quick to credit Scottie Pippen and his 7.9 points per game for the GOAT getting past the First round

ReysonDrabek:
But didnt you just literally say that young players cant grow with lebron why did kyrie grow? ooh theyre going to grow, just not now and its not lebrons fault again? stop contradicting yourself.

Kyrie was a more polished product. It's irresponsible of you to attribute credit to LeNomad for a player already in his 4th season and was averaging 20ppg before he came

ReysonDrabek:
So why is it lebrons fault he got resigned not his incompetence?

Where did anyone say Magic's incompetence didn't play a role in his firing?

ReysonDrabek:
So lukes exit is not lebrons fault like you said again? Again, stop contradicting yourself.

What is this one saying? If not for Jeanie Luke would have been gone by the all-star break. You would have kuku told us LeNomad didn't have a hand in David Blatt and Paul Silas's firing as well

ReysonDrabek:
The story was already out there. Pretending you didnt want AD would just be stupid.

Why couldn't they pretend? You mean LeNomad was forced to talk? He couldn't politely decline?
