Roy Jones Jr. believes LeBron James belongs in the Magic Johnson conversation more than the Michael Jordan one 👀
The legendary boxer explains why he respects LeBron’s greatness, but his own killer mindset and approach in the ring have always mirrored MJ and Kobe’s style more.
@CSmoove_Sports The depth will now be tested without Luka and Reaves… im actually excited to see who steps up. I think carr and adou can show something in this stretch
Sad that some LeBron fans are blocking/saying I’m a fake fan for pointing out the obvious
Some people treat BronFC like it’s a cult and you can’t critique or say anything negative ever which is just weird
Ngl most of Bron FC ain’t even real basketball fans bc how you ain’t support a team. Don’t know nothing about a rebuild or bad years bc you jump ship whenever it gets to that point much like your “goat”
I think many people still think Lakers having best 10-2 record in the NBA is kind of a fluke and by product of weak schedule.
Another signal that they are good is that at 74.2% currently lead NBA in % of game time spent leading the game.
BOS 2nd at 73.6%. HOU 3rd at 73.1%.
