Can't believe the regular season starts tonight. Just seemed like the Finals ended a couple weeks ago.

Philly vs Celtics: 6:30PM CST TNT

GSW vs Lakers: 9:00PM CST TNT

LeBron with 31-14-8 on 12/25 shooting, playing like no one his age ever has. Well on his way to breaking the record.

Russell Westbrook said he “absolutely” believes that coming off the bench against Sacramento contributed to him tweaking his hamstring in that game. “I’ve been doing the same thing for 14 years straight,” he said. “Honestly I didn’t even know what to do pregame.”

This is pretty clearly going to end with him not being on the team before the end of the season.

Stat padding on a bad team. Congrats!

Empty stats. Basically, just stat padding at this point. They got their asses kicked. Nobody gives a shit about his stats.

They will when he breaks the scoring record. And inevitably every other individual record in the history of basketball.

The guy is 38 years old and playing with a team of absolute scrubs. Winning isn't gonna happen.

It is funny how badly KCC hates Tom Brady when currently that's all LeBron James is. A much, much less accomplished version of Brady.

And it's his fault.

Dude keeps putting his thumb on the scale and then people use it to make excuses for him.

Great player; all time guy without question. Shitty teammate and a toxic presence to any organization he's been in.

It's gonna be fun actively rooting against the Lakers this year. **** these guys so much.

Real Laker fans only care about winning championships. I hated the 2 year extension just so he can pad stats and live in LA.

ARROW2 · 10-19-2022, 09:41 AM

He is so good that he always needs more HAALLLP! Needs the deck stacked to win and when that HAALP produces, they get ZERO credit and ALL the blame when things go south. **** the LAKERS until he is gone and this is coming from Mr. Laker fan himself....Shit was boring last night, he is boring, team is boring, they suck and ain't winning shit. LeGM put the team together..

Debatable. It also really doesn’t matter at this point. The organization is a complete shit sandwich and he’s made the commitment to stick by it for whatever reasons he has. I’d love it if he left but he won’t.

The guy literally won them a championship basically singlehandedly 2 years ago when they had been a joke organization for the decade before that.

Tom Brady never once was the best player in his league. LeBron was the best player in his league for about 15 years. I see a significant distinction there.

Sassy Squatch · 10-19-2022, 09:54 AM

No, it's not debatable at all.

Pelinka seems to have a pretty nice gig right now not to be getting the blame for the state of that organization.
