He gained a new enemy is what he did. Very mentally weak and soft player with psychiatric and anger issues. Doesn’t deal well with losing. Herro is a cerebral assassin thank you Tyler

It took me a min to get over the decision and also him leaving the heat had to happen. But I really really fcked with his 2nd stint in Cleveland. Him beating that warriors team was some fun hoops to watch.

Plus he just plays the game beautifully and outside of that seems like a good family man which I fck with. Easy guy to root for.


If you mean by “plays the game beautifully” by ring chasing, constantly cries to stack his teams and cries like a baby for fouls, while publicly calling himself the goat being the most cringe worthy thing then nah. I don’t agree.


i'll bite since meLo is ducking me in this wemby vs randle match up.

must suck to be so emotional about one of the greatest to ever play the game you love but not be able to enjoy him perform. check out the roster he took to the finals in 2018 and tell me how stacked they were. and your goat jordan had the xman moved out west and did everything he could to get one of the greatest rebounders and defenders of his generation on his team. so miss me with that stacking teams bullchit. all the greats do it and will continue to do it.


He still got 3 rings before Rodman got there doe….. :roll:
I’m not emotional guano, just can’t wait for Lebum to leave the league, would be amazing to not have to hear about the constant media coverage year round about the dood that only won his rings by going to Miami. He has the longevity, I’ll give you that, but I’ve never seen a dood’s legacy be carried more by his teammates than lebum. One Brunson ring in NY >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any of Lebum’s rings.

Isn’t true? Let’s count the ways…
- He went to Miami to win because he couldn’t stay in Cleveland and win the way Giannis did … check
- He wanted to consistently play on LOADED teams because he could not do it himself. See his jumping ship to join a loaded MIA, then back to CLE where kyrie and love were… check
- He would not have made it to a game 7 if not for Ray Allen’s shot against the spurs… check
- He declared himself the greatest ever, after kyrie hit a game winning 3 in game 7 against the warriors… check
- He declared himself the greatest ever, who tf does that? It’s not up to you to decide that, it’s up to the fans, the media and players who have observed players over decades. You can think you’re the greatest at something, it doesn’t mean that you are. Such a cringe player …. Check
- He constantly joins teams that are loaded, or forces management to trade pieces out, unloading players as if he’s the GM. He went back to Cleveland, as kyrie’s star began to rise, and traded their number 1 overall pick for Love … Check
- He won in the bubble, one of the most asterisk’d finals appearances/wins the league has ever had, after he b*tched and moaned and complained to have the season restarted because he thought the had another chance to win with that team… check
- He has not been able to win a ring in LA since that bubble ring… check
- He had Nike pretty much delete all footage of him getting yammed on before it started to circulate on the internet in a gym run… check
- He had a cringe worthy appearance on stage to unveil him, bosh and wade where he declared the heat would win not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 championships… check
- He still lost in the finals not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5 but SIX TIMES… check

I could keep going and going and going, but it boils down to the fact that he is the most cringe worthy player I’ve ever seen on a court who cries, complains, and begs for attention he will never garner in true basketball heads as the greatest ever. Giannis’ 1 ring in MIL, Jokic’s 1 ring in DEN, and Brunson’ eventual 1 ring in NY will be worth more than any mercenary rings lebum’s “won”. Trust me, the league will be a lot more fun to watch when he’s gone, without him hijacking and having to control the narrative, but he will play until he’s 50 just to say he’s “earned” every record in the books… Check

Some of the reservations at the time may have been warranted but Cleveland's run shows that the Mitchell trade wouldn't have been the disaster some here claimed it would be. He's a brilliant basketball player and he and Garland are co-existing well with the defense behind them.

I prefer our current core as it has (in theory at least) a better balance, so I'm not lamenting that the trade collapsed. But I think we would have have had some exciting seasons with Mitchell similar (or close) to the relative success we've had in recent years.
