If nobody cares about past history, why the hell did the best player on earth got to the Lakers? Cos he wants to play for the best franchise, as simple as that. They will play with Lebron and the Lakers whether they like it or not.

The root of the Suns problem is their owner...he needs to sell the team to a competent group.

Re: The NBA Begins by Killrhymz: 5:45am On Mar 10, 2019

Despite another #1 pick (by drafting Zion), the Suns will likely still stink.

Steph's dad is also an analyst and color commentator with the Hornets. Maybe he would demand a trade home when Klay and KD leaves

lmao!!! He might o. Just pull an AD and ask for it grin

Lol, if you put Klay and AD for any coach in the NBA, they all take AD. Let's not even go there. Who shooting help? Can Klay lead a franchise? Why are we even arguing this, its embarrassing. AD is top five in the league. Klay? I say top 20. Lol, now I know you just came here to troll.

can't you read and understand? undecided

I said it was not about skill level to even start with. Who is arguing Abt AD and Klay like this? Are you just being contentious on purpose or what? I only talked Abt putting respect on Klay name. He's no joke at all. P.s who shooting help? Lolz. sheer ignorance of that statement? Chai! SMH

Forget ranking and physical ability. If you ask LBJ right now to pick between AD and Klay to play alongside him, he's definitely going for Klay for his shooting and ability to play good D. The same shooting wey no help is what LBJ needs most right now.

I am not a fan of LBJ tho, but as great as he is, he should not have come to the West. All top 3 teams from the West would have beaten the Cavs in the last couples of finals GSW won. Last last we will all just see LBJ as a great player who played in the era when the East was at its weakest.

You need to hold your dictionary and stop arguing blindly, isn't it embarrassing? If someone started playing in 1985 and ended in 1998, isn't his era the 80s and 90s? Will you say his era is 1985 to 1998?

Bahahahahaha. You're actually moonwalking on your original Sakamanje. Progress

Jordan's era started in 85 and ended in 98.

The 80's span 1980-1989. So mentioning the 80's is reasonable. No credible analyst will start counting from 5 years before he even entered the league never mind becoming a dominant player which the era thing implies

That is more acceptable than the blatant lie you told claiming Jordan's era went from 1980-2005. What kind of hellfire lie is that?

Bare facts.

They were gassing him that he can carry any team yen yen yen. Some of us that are long in the tooth reminded people that that shyte can only fly in the East where teams 4 games below .500 are in playoff position.

Let me remind people that the Lakers were only 2 games out of the postseason with 31 games still to play when he returned. Bear in mind that even before his injury the Lakers were only 2 games ahead of 10th place. Surely if he was so great they will not have waved the white flag with 16 games left.

Go ahead and pour out your excuses. No team on earth was anywhere as good as GS that year, so don't even give me that bs.

That's your problem not mine. When the second best player on one team is capable of averaging 5 more pts per game than the best player on the GS team in a series, it's easy to see where the B.S is coming from.

No mind these our LBJ family. During the series of finals between GSW and the Cavs, I remember vividly on this thread when some LBJ fans were busy arguing and winning on how the Cavs are favorite and have the best casts. It was even worse when that werey arrived on this thread (the one wey claim to be God of the IQ's), that one when went on to compare players by their positions and guess who won? Cavs because to him/them Bron>Durant, Kyrie playing better than Curry, TT better than Draymond, J.R = Klay, then K.Love is an advantage abi na how he talk am sef grin

After finals; GSW is a cheat team with 4 all stars, KD is a snake, Bron has no help.... Here on this same thread o. It was only the last finals that warriors were clear favorites o, and still to LBJ's fans last year "It will be a close finals" until end of game 2.

In what universe is TT better than Draymond, and to compare JR to Klay is blasphemy.

The way he put it, it sounded as if Klay was a far better player than AD since he refused to come to LA as opposed to AD who wanted to come.

You forgot to tell us that the Lakers were 20-14 and 4th in the west when he got injured. The whole world knows that his injury and the trade palaba was what slowed the team down. But of course, the Lebron haters will never see this.

But truth be said, if you looked at the fixtures, you should have seen this coming. The early season fixtures was against the better teams, towards the mid season was much lighter but the last 25 or so was heavy fixtures. Some people will tell you they saw this coming, go through this season's fixtures again and you will see it. And I do not agree with that injure excuse o, he's healthy now, isn't he? We all know LBJ is a beast, but he is human and sometimes his fans (you inclusive o grin

) exaggerate about what he can do. That is what A40 is pointing out

How about JVG suggesting the Lakers keep all options open, including trading Lebum James? grin

Re: The NBA Begins by donlittle25: 5:25pm On Mar 10, 2019

fam, I was like shocked

It's the truth tho, if with this roster, you can't get the Lakers into the playoffs, then it doesn't bode well.

As a leader, he seems to have lost the locker room.

It doesn't get better in the western conference, teams get better and better, and the Lakers seems not to be able to land a star to play with him.

Honestly, I will say trade LeBron, keep those young guys, and hope they develop.

Especially if you can't get mid-level and top tier talent to come play with him.

Shey you can see the team in 10th??

Where were the Lakers when he returned? How many games left? So you mean your LeNomad cannot lead the Lakers to the playoffs without all-stars? If the Clippers and Jazz were waiting for all-stars would they make the playoffs?

They always shape shift and change colors like chameleon.

My own is this season has emphatically buttressed what I have been stressing since the Fall of Man. LeNomad owes his career to playing in a weaker conference. He is going to need that Miami Heat level roster just to make it past the first round in the West never mind getting to the Finals

lmao. Smh. You really don't like the guy very much Sha ...and speaking of juju, double coverages everywhere o. Cornerbacks with safeties on top? That sounds like a dicey situation all around. And a 37 year old qb who has never being great(good, not great) would put you over the top? Defense has been the calling card for the last 2 Superbowls wins, so maybe they would go back to it. P.s James Washington is going to be the WR2 grin
