    He was great the last two games and I've already stated he just hasn't been the same player since the C Bags game. In particular the explosion and jumper is noticeably different. And yes they had a lot of rest but you can't run Lebron into the ground JJ particularly one that is clearly not a 100% and not expect a decline at this age.

    Luka getting sick cost us maybe both of those games and AR not being a third star I think is accentuating Lebron not playing well yesterday. At least I was hoping that AR would have been able to win you a game when Lebron and Luka were off but he wasn't even a top 5 player in the series at the end of the day.

    Next year hopefully the Lakers with a full Luka year and I'm still a big AR fan and a modified roster the Lakers can do what the C Bags have done the last two years. They keep Horford and Porzingis on ice for most of the regular season and then other teams are shocked when they do play them big minutes they are fresh and healthy.

    Yeah and so the **** what Rob? HE may have wanted Kieff to remain on the roaster for whatever non basketball reasons … but f*** them (Shake’s) “miniscule asset values” this summer or worse all the way to next deadline. We had no size down low and Jemison (if JJ would have held his nose like he did every time he used Hayes) …. and actually used him it would have HELPED!
