    He didn’t look good tonight. Maybe the knee is bugging him. Maybe he’s just feeling Father Time finally. He was missing chippies at the rim (oof that airball), turning the ball over down the stretch. Just looked tired and off.

    Much as you and @ADKOBE want that like months ago, it’s Dumb. You’re tripping if you don’t think we need him and he can still be a force in the playoffs THIS year.

    Happily spamming my “same as every team hopes for, IF HEALTHY”, for their best players. After this season whatever the H Walter wants to do … we should all be good with.

    Never said it was rational. I hate the way he plays at times. At least the chucking and LeEffIt 3s are at a relative minimum.

    Yesterday's game reminded me of pre Lebron this season when Luka and Austin were going off like the best 1 2 punch in basketball. It was exciting basketball to watch. They played loose and were having fun out there. It may not lead to a championship but at least we saw the potential for the future.

    When you get older it gets more difficult to play again after a break. Anyone above 30 can likely confirm that you feel better when you're playing regularly but if you miss a week or 2, the body doesn't respond so well.

    He still got to his spots and missed 3 or 4 at the rim or stepback mid J he usually makes.
    I think he will get better throughtout the rest of the season. And with Luka/AR we can actually manage his minutes. If we're healthy, I'm feeling good about Bron
