@ChasingGnosis @BenRitholtzNBA Along with some horrible defense

@cccdavision @MarzTalksSports @Gabriel93102995 @holoblick @EugeneK18134694 This really isn’t hard to understand, they were able to pack the paint and not allow lanes for LeBron to attack. If guys were able to hit open shots then typically lanes would open up. This is easy 1+1=2 basketball

[Jay @njay008]

@MarzTalksSports @Gabriel93102995 @holoblick @EugeneK18134694 Because strategy and matchups exist in sports. This is basic sports knowledge you gotta have, get that bball IQ and stop pretending to be dumb on the internet for engagement

@justTimThrasher @HeatCulture13 Rich is his own man. If you let the comments of Lebrons agent affect how you feel about Lebron as a basketball player that says more about you

[Jay @njay008]

@IceColdDQ @howintf This. Plus they have an insane amount of picks still in their war chest. 2 lottery level picks this year, potentially the same next year

@yahia05938894 @Relleon02 @sixringsofsteeI This. You gotta understand that most people aren’t looking at anything beside box score stats. There were large stretches where Wemby was invisible, while SGA was the entire engine for OKC

@KenHeLive People don’t remember Ahmad Rashad essentially being Jordan’s best friend while being the top NBA guy for decades?

@jtbucketsss @TheDunkCentral @HeatCulture13 They were a bad call in Game 7 away from going to the ECF without MJ. There’s a very real scenario where they end up winning a ring or 2

@Sanders7Royce @FireMooch @TheDunkCentral @HeatCulture13 1-9 for those who aren’t aware

@CiudadBBall So nearly half his min weren’t at the 5? Thanks for highlighting that

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall AD himself stated that he wanted a legit 5 instead of him being the 5.. how did it got when they actually had big depth with AD at the 4? Oh right they won a chip with McGee and Howard as the real 5’s

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall Yeah you’re highlighting you don’t know anything about ball when you mention Drummond and Harrell and Gasol when you think those guys are rim running/rim protecting bigs.

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall Not at all what they wanted. They wanted a rim protecting and rim running big.. and the FO said no to AD. Now what are they looking for? A rim running, rim protecting big for Luka lol

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall Nah the Lakers kept going with the “hope” that LeBron would be washed, and he kept being great. They’ve started this plan of saving their cap space and picks for THIS offseason, only to be met with a mid FA class and needing to replace 3 starters and 3-4 bench players

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall They only worked together in certain instances. They deliberately decided not to go with countless LeBron moves because they didn’t want to be seen as a “LeBron team”. Simply a fact and there are numerous well known examples

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall This is dumb because LeBron wanted Jason Kidd before Vogel after the Lakers mishandled Ty Lue. So not only did they botch his 1st choice but his 2nd choice also lol

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall Yaron said a lot of shit in his book that people didn’t agree with and stuff they felt he stretched the truth on. But one thing he stated on the Bomani show was that he was surprised how LITTLE influence LeBron had as “GM”

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall lol you are flip flopping all over. Bron and AD wanted Derozan but the Lakers FO didn’t wanna give him a 3rd year so they pivoted. You’re not too bright are you?

[Jay @njay008]

@CiudadBBall You’re an idiot
