    Good fucking grief Bron is an absolute monster with 32 points, 9 assists, 8 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 blocks with only 4 turnovers tonight in a win... how unreal is this dude? I bet he has five good years left in him.

    But the Jinx guy won’t shut up about how “OLD” he is. I’m confused.

    4 turnovers on 9 assists isn't a lot and especially when you get 4 steals as well. Come on man. If that line isn't impressive to you at any age, you're lying to yourself.

    I swear LeBron will be able to play until he's 47 if he wants. He might just want to. If him and Bronny get on the same team he might really love that. He'll put the points scored record out of reach, the games played record out of reach, the seasons played out of reach and oldest player to compete as well. Maybe at that point he'll be a lot more about facilitating and he'll creep up on Stockton for assists after passing Kareem for points.

    I bet Bron will wait to see who drafts his son, then he will join him. That would be the incentive for said team.

    Just like somehow Cleveland got the pick of him, somehow the Lakers will have the exact pick to get his son.

    No, you shut up. My tin foil hat makes me feel sexy.

    No no no, a little too much beer. Thought I was replying to @KSF-ERIC and his post about 4 turnovers being a lot in a game where a guy scores 32 points, gets 9 assists and steals the ball 4 times. So no, I did not realize who I was responding to and thank you for pointing that out.

    Or they got another win and helped our lottery odds... either way that was a good win for us by Indiana tonight... go Pacers.

    I just thought it was funny you said “only.” You must be watching too much Russell Westbrook.

    Or he’ll be out of the league in two years. Father Time is undefeated.

    I never liked LeBron style. It will never be as beautiful as Jordan's.
    But one thing makes him king in this league. He likes basketball and still have a hunger for winning.
    90% of the league is about money. As soon as players got it, they care more about things they like more.
    He seems to take basketball seriously and I respect that as a fan.

    What’s the intel on him? From what I’ve heard in passing, he isn’t even a first round talent. So how high is a team going to want to pick Bronny to get Bron? If you’re the Blazers and you have a mid-first, would it be worth wasting it on Bronny to get, say, two years of Lebron?

    I said we should have drafted him instead of Meyers Leonard but no one would listen to me.

    Or we could get some of Lebron's DNA and clone him.

    Do the same with Lillard.

    Can you imagine a lineup of 1 Lillard and 4 Lebrons?!?

    Yes but we'd have to wait 20+ years for the clones to grow up. I ain't waiting that long!
