    LeBron put up 30 points on 12 shots, 8 assists with no turnovers and 5 boards all in just 23 minutes because he sat down with a 30 point lead at 5:44 left in the third and didn't have to go back in because the Lakers bench continued the blowout. Yikes! Dude has played more basketball games than anyone else in league history and he's still doing crazy shit like that.

    He was dominant in that game. He dominated the game vs Phoenix as well.

    I wonder if he’ll play long enough to play in Vegas before owning part of it.

    First player in the HISTORY of the game of basketball to put up those numbers in that amount of time……in his 21st season. We were told he was slowing down and looking old 5 years ago. Simply amazing.

    That production at that age makes me think I should declare for the draft.

    Honest question, do you have any years of eligibility left with the NCAA….. I think that would be your best bet. I can help you get an NIL for sure!

    sure, based upon what he's doing right now. Averaging 27 points and 12 assists with a 29.5 PER, a .674 TS%, and an 11.1 BPM is totally insane at 23 years old

    but at the time of the trade, he was averaging 14 points and 7 assists with a PER of 17.0, a .575 TS%, and a BPM of 2.6

    and it's quite possible that Indy demanded Haliburton as the price for Sabonis and wouldn't settle for Fox

    Sabonis isn't chopped liver either, averaging 19-12-7

    Oh I remember what haliburton was thought of before then. I won't argue for either as they are both high end talents, just preference really.

    Never understood the love for Fox but Indiana was smart to choose the other.

    If this is getting leaked by the team, this could get ugly. He’s good as gone. Wonder who is willing to take a chance on him?

    That the Blazers' replay guy can be bribed with a Snickers.
