LABron James Discussion: The Final Year?

That would be disastrous. If Lebron is not the 2nd best player on this team this year, the Lakers will not win the title.

 

He isn't but they will. We have MVP Austin. LeBron just needs to play his role. Defend, rebound and pass. Good to see him be legitimately happy for Rui. Austin's team ball is rubbing off on him. Nice work LJ.

 

I was going to come up here and tear him a new one, but he passed to Rui. So... gets a pass for me, but that was a rough rough night of basketball for Bron.

 

Offense isn't there nor is the lift. BUT he's ancient and has never missed a training camp, pre season and start to the season. If he still looks washed middle of next month, then it's a different conversation. But regardless of that, he's not the first or second option on this team. He is third, maybe a 2b to Austin's 2a if he gets back to last season Bron but he's going to be more the rebounder, right-play maker, and on the court coordinator than scorer on this iteration of this team.

Also think he got a poor whistle this game that could've easily swung his night to an 17-18 point game.

Glad the storyline is over. Glad he made the right play to kill the storyline of what's more important.


This is a guy who doesn't give a damn about 10 points.


Some crazy stats about last time this happened though
