A lot of people saw that and can't believe it. Doesn't feel right, but at the same time totally believable.

Nuggets have some nice young players on the bench. Bones Hyland is pretty good.

I know Westbook is cheeks this season, but you can watch the game and see he's giving effort.

What Lebron is doing is bad for the NBA if he's the face of it. You can tell he's there to get some cheap assists, free-throws, or leak out dunks.

Lol this is so dumb

Dude it's 30 point lead and scrubs playing from Denver and LeBron there every play trying to score or get assist while not playing lick of defense.
Agreed. It's not dumb at all. What's dumb was LeBron still being out there. It was too obvious why.

Going to be? Have you missed the tik Tok zoomers going crazy on the LeBrOn SmAsHeS jOrDaN posts or the other 100 Lebron fap posts every week.

This has become the worst place to discuss basketball in the last 12 months

Gotta watch Denver more. Fun team and they don't even have all of their main pieces. Crazy to think about.

This Lakers season reminds of the last few years of Kobe's career. The team was going nowhere and the highlight of each game was him passing someone on an all-time list like LeBron has been. Other than that it was just awful basketball. Rough for Lakers fans.

You definitely caught them at the right time. It's been brutal at times :(

I know we have enough of those, but Lakers losing by 40 is kinda thread worthy.

Is a Cavs trade revolving around Love + Picks for LeBron realistic for both parties?

Bones has been in the dog house the last couple of weeks. This is easily the best game he's had all season.

Again...during this time, there was a sense of urgency from Kobe and the players on the roster. Dude sacrificed his career to will that team to the playoffs. If they had a sizable lead on teams, starters would rest and get ready for the next game.

Lebron has thrown in the towel for playoffs and just going for acontextual stat-lines for casuals.
