The Lakers winning games where LeBron is average to poor and missing key rotational pieces? Sign me the fuck up. AD carried but the other 6 guys who played stepped for LeBron and Vando/Rui/Vincent too.

Refs slipping...

Its annoying as fuck, but its how it goes with him. He has a hip issue right now or something, idk. Maybe its an excuse maybe its truly bothering him on B2Bs. You can work with it because even without scoring he can still be a force on defense. And when he plays at his peak he is a top-5 player.

I've been saying this for years with this Lakers roster (AD and Bron plus role players) that the regular season just doesn't really matter. Last year tested that theory but they turned it on late after dealing with the Westbrook situation. If AD has to take games off (even when playing) and it means he will be able to function later in the season, I'll take some extra losses. The consequence is the player doesn't get his DPOY or MVP votes and people on reddit say he isn't top-10. Great, thats fair and fine but show me what he gives in the playoffs and I will judge that extremely critically.

The circle of suck! Classic sporting outcome in any given season. Haven’t seen it in the premier league yet but in American football you get it all the time within divisions at least.

Sengun does a great job using his left to clear out LeBron. Does it in a way that is not an obvious foul too. Not much the defender can do there except be taller.

I'm all aboard the shitting on the Warriors train. Can't get enough. And while Klay looks like dogshit, lets not forget Wiggins and the bench are garbage too. As suspect as the Lakers look right now, I'm 100% sure they'd easily win in 6 games again (probably quicker).

Yeah lets make players yeet themselves on their necks. This might be one of the dumbest calls in years and I've seen some shit watching this league.

I mostly agree with you, bro. I watch a lot of BuLi and Jude obviously stood out. But his ascendancy with Madrid is so incredible that its feels unsustainable. If its not then yes he is the best midfielder easily. And while I don’t think he is there yet, he has plenty of time.

Wilshere is a proper hobbit. What the fuck no way you were expecting him to score a bunch. If so it pretty much does explain why England hasn’t won shit since I’ve been alive (plus almost 30 other years). Jude might actually pull it off though!

It was meant to be a joke. I’ve been having fun this whole thread but now the vibe has changed and I need to sleep. Oh well.

Some jokes don’t hit, it is what it is.
