Serious Q. Is this LeBron's worst team ever?

Its between this Lakers team and the 04 Cavs.

Yeah they were both pretty pathetic, but least Westbrick has already let us know this what he is

At the end of the day people gonna be like Lebron is top 5 right now because of the points he’s scoring but this is what they fail to see. He’s not a two way player anymore and is a poor leader. No top 5 player would lead his team to this horrendous record. He’s around like 15-20 imo

Happens all the time. Giannis is low key a dirty player who is as babied as anyone in the NBA.

You could hear Rox announcers earlier talking about how weird of a game it was and how some Lakers weren't running back on defense. That was the second quarter, btw.

Rockets totally wiped the floor with those threes! bang! Green so fun to watch. What an elite team.

You think?

True sign of a bad team is when they can’t win any games convincingly.

Lakers always either get blown out, get completely outplayed down the stretch or narrowly escape miraculously.

Well, well, well.

It’d be nice if the Nuggets bench can be consistent. Kinda sucks the starters have to come in with their lead dwindled down

EDIT: I thought you meant just from three. :lol:

Rockets strategy was to attack Melo lol. This is a young man’s league.

Sure you can discuss that all you want but this might be the worst versio of LeBron in NBA. He is huge liability defensively and just free layup line if he plays as center. On top of that he absolutely kills offense by holding ball half the possession and then 5s left throws it to someone like Johnson. LeBron at this point is a bit like Melo 4-5 years ago. Huge ball stopper who disturbs offensive flow like nobody else. Sure he gets his but yikes the offense looks bad when he runs it and Lakers aren't lucking out on 3 pointers.

This is a generational draft class potentially

Not a lot of assist or TO for Luka - such a weird game

Everyone else combined 3/27 3s (11%) might be the reason, also most of them were wide open...

Just saying it’s weird to have a da where everyone but one guy falls apart

NY is the team Mavs lose to twice a year. Two Mavs wins in the past four years, maybe to reward the only team likes to trade with Mavs, from Porzingis THJ to Bullock...

Nah, Atlanta is just bad at defense. They weren't set and were still moving.

Who wins the following games?
