Good. I actually want the Lakers to be the first team to have a player-coach. Lebron would be perfect for it. He will call a timeout, coach his teammates and tell himself what to do.

Bron has to be coached by a puppet..I think the next best candiate will be Jason Kidd..Kidd can work with Lonzo (if they keep him) and Lebron can do what he do..

you crazy??? Brendan malone has been a head coach 2 seasons, 1995-96 and 2004-05, total wins 29 total loses 71. Damn fine coach if you ask me. You thinkin about mike malone i think??? Blatt was so good he never coached an nba team after the CAVS.

only good one he had is spoelstra and he had just 2 years of experience as an headcoach. Argument could be made spoelstra wasnt nearly as good then as he is now.

You right. I was thinking of the guy who got messed over by Cousins.

Blatt got screwed and he never got run his system. When you have Bron Bron you are running it through him as a pg.

Blatt was Lebronned.


Blatt got fired mid season and they won the championship that year.. Pretty sure LBJ made the right choose.. Spo is an ok coach but what has he done since LBJ left miss playoffs or just make them they have also spent for that roster they have the highest payroll in the NBA and are a first round out.. Spo is not a good coach he is an average coach..


Spo is better than avg. he just is lacking talent. It’s unfortunate. You need a star to win and he is above avg players. Not many stars.

Kidd could help turn Ball into Michael Carter-Williams.

I thought Bill Russell (Celtics) was the first player-coach. :D

He was driven out of town by LeBron and his posse; the justification usually being a championship that, as every intelligent being was able to see, was more gifted both by the league (suspensions in one game, Curry tagged with 3! questionable fouls in the other) and the GSW than earned (and if anyone earned it, it was Kyrie).
- His ego is f**ked up beyond repair. To this day, he acts like he owns the league. Notice how he subtlety elevates himself over all team mates. He actually has a pillow that makes him sit even higher than his centers, did you notice that? Either he has hemoorrhoids, or its a pure ego/showman thing. He is not able to indulge any kind of criticism. Whenever faced with a critical question he resorts to "i have money and titles, i dont care for your opinion". He actually declared himself the G.O.A.T. to the amusement of 99.9% of the players.
- He is a terrible team mate. He frequently throws his team mates under the bus, now he even does it in public when begging for a trade of 9 young high potentials just to akquire AD. Kyrie had enough of his BS, Kawhi and KD publicly stated they are not interested in playing beside him ("under him" would be more appropriate).

You can continue to live in denial, its a common thing with fans. Just at some point dont forget to change your tune. I expect a lot more stories to break out in about 5 years and by that time, many guys on realgm will be busy deleting their posts from the past 15 years :lol:

You really have an obsession with bron.

Just as prediced, an ad hominem attack ("hater") instead of addressing the points i made. Maybe, just maybe, it is you who has an obsession with LeBron? Theres a funny word for such guys but i spare you the name calling.

As for your other claim ("Many ex players praise him"), what about Kyrie, IT, Jae Crowder, Kawhi, AD, KD and other star players who werent at all interested in playing with him? I didnt make that up so please explain THAT instead of name calling.

AD wanted to play with him what are you on about he wanted to be traded to the Lakers.. Kyrie was a child.. It's obvious why KD don't want to play with LeBron.. PG13 was happy to sign a couple of years with Cleveland if LeBron did he just ended up liking OKC once traded there.. Kwahi is strange I don't think he will end up playing with LBJ but I ain't ruled it out.. Jar Crowder IT are you kidding me IT has been so bad for Denver he is out of the rotation.. Crowder did not perform under pressure... LeBron won when Blatt was gone end of story.. He lead in every statistical category blocks rebounds assists steals and points never been done by any player ever and your going to say he was not the main reason they won.. Let's not forget they won by 4 points not three and LBJ sunk the sealing free throw making it impossible for GSW to the the game.. Let's also say 2015 when Kyrie and Love where injured a good chance LBJ would have won that series if he was crewed up.. GSW was also concerned enough that had to bring in KD to ensure they won the next year amd they were right.. LBJ has also only ever been favourite in 2 finals and one of those he lost so he also won 2 as the under dog.. MJ had the most stacked team of his era period so was always favourite... The reason the Mavs series was a disaster was because Lebron did differ he differed to wade he had to take control to make Miami a winner.. Also LBJ let Kyrie have a higher usuage than him take more shots close games even though last play offs we saw Lebron close a ton of games.. Pretty sure LBJ is a good team mate.. Kevin Love Wade Bosh all speak well of him and even now Kyrie does after doing some soul searching.. Does he try to control the narrative sure but so does KD with burner accounts and Kyrie talking about a private conversation.. Dude your hater plain and simple..

That's the way it's always been. Some people treat others like garbage while they're on top of the mountain, and the minute age takes away their talent, looks, strength, whatever it may be, all that negative energy explodes in their face.


I think Lebron is hated far more than others. He’ll always have his money, but I think he’ll leave the league with very few friends.



There was a lot of hate for him before his decline - his antics have always been the same.

It is also Rich Paul who is hated; Just ask Jeannie Buss as well as the Pelicans;

Very few want players to run the league and make demands;

Blatt was so good he never coached an NBA team again....
Kyrie hating him so much he called to apologies. Plus he said he wanted out because he knew lebron was going to leave and he didnt want to be in the dumpster fire that is the CAVS.
IT, Jae Crowder???? you serious???? they happy they even play.
AD requested an trade and wanted to go to LA, so no interest to play with lebron???
Kahwi wants to be the guy, so yeah next to lebron you never be the guy.
KD has never ever said anything about not willing to play with lebron, he choose the warrior like any player would have who wants to win.
Who are these other star players??? you mean with the CAVS??? who wants to be in CLE.

People said the same with Westbrook in OKC, yet PG13 signed a contract there. If no one wants to play with LBJ we will find out this summer when 30-40% of the nba is FA.

Blatt is an excellent coach. If you dont know this, then you just expose your limited knowledge within the basketball world (probably you havent seen anythgin other than NBA at all).
Many of the star players share the same agent. It is detrimental to their business to go on record with negative statements about other players, thats why there are "burner accounts" and "apologies". Kyrie spoke the truth when he went out of there originally, now he tries to stay relevant with half hearted apologies. IT and Jae are just as relevant when talking about the atmosphere around leBron as everyone else, they are seasoned vets. Who are you to diminish them just because they arent on your bedroom poster? They clearly spoke out about the toxic atmosphere surrounding lebron.

- Kyrie
- PG13 chose not to go to LA to join LeBron, instead stayed in OKC
- Kawhi went public about not wanting to join lebron
- KD went public about the toxic atmosphere surrounding lebron
- multiple former teammates report the same
- Coaches dont want to be around him either because it is obvious he is uncoachable.

Even Bleacher report, more or less the public platform for bron fanboy beat writers, has going on record about it (https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2808589-why-doesnt-anyone-want-to-play-with-lebron-anymore). ESPN slowly stop their sucking up and so does TNT. I'm curious for how much longer we'll see posts by "100% Bron" guys on here tbh.

so a good coach in europe makes an good coach in the NBA??? because both are played the same and offciated the same?!?!? Why does no team in the nba want him as a coach if he is so good???

Kyrie never left because of lebron.... He explained his thought process as he decided to ask for a trade last summer. "You come to a point in your career where you really just start taking responsibility for how you want to shape your career," Kyrie recalled. "It's going to take getting rid of some old habits, coming to terms with emotions that you have, being a young kid…it was coming to a point where I just had to let go. I had an unbelievable six years with Cleveland, I love them to death…then we do something historic like bring a championship to Cleveland. Then afterward, it's like, we part ways."

PG13 CHOOSE OKC, so he chose not go to the other 29 teams not only LA, he never said not willing to play with lebron, just that the lakers didnt grap him when they could. so it was decided the moment he got in OKC, before lebron went to LA.

Kahwi like i said, doesnt want to join a team with any all star, so yeah also not lebron, and still those are only rumors.

What former team mates??? even in the article you posted, only players who have never played with him have a opinion.

What coaches dont want to be around him????? this is what ty Lue said to walton lol. "I just told him about Bron, how easy he is. You've got to ask Luke about the stuff we talked about—I don't want to put that out there—but just [that] Bron's easy, man. It’s not what it seems. ... If he has a problem or disagrees with you, he's going to talk to you. He's not going to make a big scene or blow up. Occasionally you see him [upset] on the bench, but ... people blow it out of proportion, like it's something crazy. ... It's just the surrounding s--t that they try to make it hard."

KD was talkin about the toxic environment from the media that surrounds lebron, not lebron him self. Can you honostly say that KD him self doenst bring that aswell. It comes with being the best of the best.

Blatt was so good he never coached an NBA team again....
Kyrie hating him so much he called to apologies. Plus he said he wanted out because he knew lebron was going to leave and he didnt want to be in the dumpster fire that is the CAVS.
IT, Jae Crowder???? you serious???? they happy they even play.
AD requested an trade and wanted to go to LA, so no interest to play with lebron???
Kahwi wants to be the guy, so yeah next to lebron you never be the guy.
KD has never ever said anything about not willing to play with lebron, he choose the warrior like any player would have who wants to win.
Who are these other star players??? you mean with the CAVS??? who wants to be in CLE.

People said the same with Westbrook in OKC, yet PG13 signed a contract there. If no one wants to play with LBJ we will find out this summer when 30-40% of the nba is FA.

Blatt is an excellent coach. If you dont know this, then you just expose your limited knowledge within the basketball world (probably you havent seen anythgin other than NBA at all).
Many of the star players share the same agent. It is detrimental to their business to go on record with negative statements about other players, thats why there are "burner accounts" and "apologies". Kyrie spoke the truth when he went out of there originally, now he tries to stay relevant with half hearted apologies. IT and Jae are just as relevant when talking about the atmosphere around leBron as everyone else, they are seasoned vets. Who are you to diminish them just because they arent on your bedroom poster? They clearly spoke out about the toxic atmosphere surrounding lebron.

- Kyrie
- PG13 chose not to go to LA to join LeBron, instead stayed in OKC
- Kawhi went public about not wanting to join lebron
- KD went public about the toxic atmosphere surrounding lebron
- multiple former teammates report the same
- Coaches dont want to be around him either because it is obvious he is uncoachable.

Even Bleacher report, more or less the public platform for bron fanboy beat writers, has going on record about it (https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2808589-why-doesnt-anyone-want-to-play-with-lebron-anymore). ESPN slowly stop their sucking up and so does TNT. I'm curious for how much longer we'll see posts by "100% Bron" guys on here tbh.


so a good coach in europe makes an good coach in the NBA??? because both are played the same and offciated the same?!?!? Why does no team in the nba want him as a coach if he is so good???

Kyrie never left because of lebron.... He explained his thought process as he decided to ask for a trade last summer. "You come to a point in your career where you really just start taking responsibility for how you want to shape your career," Kyrie recalled. "It's going to take getting rid of some old habits, coming to terms with emotions that you have, being a young kid…it was coming to a point where I just had to let go. I had an unbelievable six years with Cleveland, I love them to death…then we do something historic like bring a championship to Cleveland. Then afterward, it's like, we part ways."

PG13 CHOOSE OKC, so he chose not go to the other 29 teams not only LA, he never said not willing to play with lebron, just that the lakers didnt grap him when they could. so it was decided the moment he got in OKC, before lebron went to LA.

Kahwi like i said, doesnt want to join a team with any all star, so yeah also not lebron, and still those are only rumors.

What former team mates??? even in the article you posted, only players who have never played with him have a opinion.

What coaches dont want to be around him????? this is what ty Lue said to walton lol. "I just told him about Bron, how easy he is. You've got to ask Luke about the stuff we talked about—I don't want to put that out there—but just [that] Bron's easy, man. It’s not what it seems. ... If he has a problem or disagrees with you, he's going to talk to you. He's not going to make a big scene or blow up. Occasionally you see him [upset] on the bench, but ... people blow it out of proportion, like it's something crazy. ... It's just the surrounding s--t that they try to make it hard."

KD was talkin about the toxic environment from the media that surrounds lebron, not lebron him self. Can you honostly say that KD him self doenst bring that aswell. It comes with being the best of the best.

Well this can obviously go on forever. For me this is excellent evidence for that first sentence in my first post. You will just deny whatever facts quotes or numbers anyone brings up. PG goes to LA, you'd have said "just because of Bron!". He does not want to go there, "it has nothing to do with Bron!". Kyrie has been on record for being annoyed with Bron disrespecting and "son"'ing him, later on they agreed on making up a story line that was a bit smoother. We all remember that off season, how noone talked to each other and so on, you cant just act like that never happened. I already mentioned the former team mates that talked about what it was like being on a team with him. You can continue to deny it, the harder the turnaround will become for you.

What facts am i denying? the fact Blat aint no NBA coach??? because FIBa is coached/played different?? i dont know basketball beyond nba, even though im european and i never watched nba until i got older??? PG saying for him self he choose to play with WB?? or him saying the lakers didnt grap me when they could??? The fact Kyrie came back on his own words??? But you are a private detective who came to the conclusion bron and kyrie decided on that????? IT, Crowder are you argument for the teammates who speak bad about him??? What about players who played for years with him??? were are those teammates who hated it for years to play with him??? why hasnt any player come out to say, its terrible to play with lebron???? were are his fromer coaching saying he is terrible to coach?? its non existing only in rumours in the media. even that bleacherreport article is full of assumptions and players who never played with him.

Sorry mate but you seem to have lost it. Look at your own post...you sound really like someone obsessed. And you seem to have forgotten what thread you are commenting on. "were are his fromer coaching" well look at the article, titled "Doc Rivers Warned About Chaching LeBron James". Slow down, take a deep breath, maybe go outside for a walk. You dont need to make it your life purpose to defend a guy who doesnt give two s**ts about you.
