Mavs are 13-2 at home and 2-10 on the road with losses to the Hawks and Sunsx2. How is that possible?

Browns have won 9 of the NFL's 14 Rookie of the Week awards this season -- 2 short of the record (2012 Redskins, 2017 Saints). Baker Mayfield got his 5th today http://brow.nz/Yzfxhx

Baker owns.......

seriously....I was split between him and Darnold.....but thank GOD the Browns took ole Baker.

Feeling pretty fucking dangerous indeed.

Young team I guess
Outside of Luka, Brunson, and DSJ they really only play guys 25 or older, it doesn't make sense. But those lopsided record splits should even out more as the season goes on.

Weren't Luke and LeBron in the same draft class?

LeBron's treatment of and unwillingness to listen to coaches has held his teams back at certain times, IMO. It is one of very few aspects of LeBron's legacy on and off the court that I think he could improved on.

That said, you have a GOAT caliber player being coached by someone who was in his own draft class?

That might be tough for a guy like LeBron to really take Luke seriously. How is Luke expected to actually challenge LeBron unless LeBron is completely willing to be coached by Luke?

It's about respect for him as a coach and his knowledge of the game. Spoelstra wasn't in anyone's draft class, but Lebron eventually learned to respect him and allowed himself to be coached by him.

Part of that, imo, was the number of years that he signed for and the fact that Riley made it clear that Spo wasn't going anywhere.

If Luke is making the right calls, and Lebron believes in what he's doing (so far, he seems to), then it really shouldn't be an issue.

I was watching the game last night and I remember thinking Webber sounded ridiculous on that one... obvious foul, not really close.

ESPN has Hubie Brown on the call tonight for Philly/Indiana and it is a breath of fresh air.

Hubie is the best play-by-play guy in all of sports.
