PLEASE explain to me what this proves? PLEASE......I'm begging you. You obviously searched for this specific clip to prove SOMETHING.
I never said LeBron was washed up. You read that into it. I was describing the Lakers and said they have AD, an old LeBron, etc. That is true. They don't have prime LeBron. It is what it is.
I would prefer us have a matchup that gave us a 30% chance of winning a series vs one that gave us 5% chance of winning a series. I prefer the easier path. I'd prefer only 2 series' where we're a heavy underdog than 3. Why would anyone who wants us to win a title prefer we have the most difficult road possible? It sounds like you want us to have the worst chance possible.
I guess, like all of your other incredibly biased takes we'll have to wait and see. I'm a Blazers fan but the Lakers are still a massive favorite in the West and overall if they have their whole roster healthy.
And no LeBron can't play for four more years if he wants to if he suffers a career ending injury. It happens to everyone. Ultimately, you're body gives out one way or another.
You're assuming the Clippers are the most difficult road possible. Clippers are weak mentally. The whole organization is cursed. Blazers are 1-0 vs Clippers in playoffs. Blazers have made it to the WCF 7 times. The Clippers have made it to the WCF 0 times despite having Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Kawhi Leonard, Wayoff P etc etc. Dame and I want to win the title. We see the big picture. We're good enough to get to WCF but he needs to not be exhausted when we get there. Last game against Clippers, we lost by 1 and we're playing much better now. Nurkic is rounding into form and our D is much better.
Kevin Durant is awful. Needs to join 73-9 win team to win title. Has had Harden and Kyrie and Griffin on his team this year and they don't even have a Top seed.
But their roster isn't healthy. Doesn't Schroeder have Covid-19? LeBron says he'll never be 100% again. THT missed the game last night.
Let's see if you really believe what you're saying. I propose two $50 bets: 1) If the Blazers play the Clippers, I get the mentally weak, no WCF Clippers to win the series, you get the Blazers. 2) I get the Lakers to win the title, you get the Nuggets, Mavs, and Blazers. If none of those 4 teams win, no money exchanges hands. You up for both bets?
Yeah, lol?!? His three point percentage is up, his per 36 in rebounds, assists and blocks are all up and his fouls are down. He's playing far more minutes against starters and he's playing better objectively. What's your boy Zach doing?
Easy. That clip I showed you is of LeBron playing last week. One of only two games we've seen the man play since March. blazerkor was saying that LeBron playing means they'll beat Suns and Knicks. I think he means pre-injury LeBron. Current LeBron can be seen clearly in the clip I posted. If you read the thread, you'd understand all of that.
Yep. Easy money. Have fun rooting for the Clippers to beat us. You do realize you just bet against your favorite team, right?
In the Lakers biggest game of the season, Kuzma shot 2 of 11, 0-6 from 3. All I needed to see. You know a player sucks when you have to cite his per36 numbers and not his actual numbers. Zach Lavine, Randolph, or Collins? LaVine just came back from injury and he'll do his best to get Bulls in playoffs but it's a long shot unless Pacers lose out. Randolph- have the Grizzlies retired his jersey yet? Collins- almost recovered from his injury, coaching defense from the bench for Blazers tonight. Looking forward to his return next season. We don't have a single player on our roster who matches Collins' skills.
