Holy bejesus....

Baker Mayfield is petulant as fuck.
Think I know what you are talking about and for the most part agree. He was right the Q whether he was happy with the result was a dumb Q but the other Qs were fair.

Either way, needs to grow up.

Here's the thing with Lebron...I think he can still be the best player in the NBA when he wants/needs to.

But at 35, he can't be the best player in the NBA every game and expect to have anything left for the playoffs.

I don’t.

To me, the best player is a guy you can rely on to bring it every time he laces up.

And I don’t think LeBron’s playoff best is equal to Kawhi’s best at this point.

Didn't like the presser, but have no issues with those comments.

However, one thing to passionate and emotional in a game. Needs to be a little more mature in a presser.

His star wide receiver openly lusting after Brady probably doesn't help.

Brady seems a little more giddy, no?

How do you know? Last time he was in the playoffs he was every bit the player Kawhi was last year.

Yeah, I'm not 100% convinced he can still do it. But I'm also not convinced he can't.

We'll know a lot more late in the season and in the playoffs.

If he's not anymore, then he's not. But as I've heard a lot of commentators say: Not sure I want to bet against him in the playoffs. lol

Would it completely shock me if LeBron were the best player in the 2020 playoffs?

Yeah, it would shock me a little. But I agree you can’t rule out the possibility.

I would definitely bet against it though.

Eh.

Close.

But that was 2 years ago for a 35 year old who has been hurt and has not played at that level in LA.

hurt one time in his career though. And probably sat out longer than he needed, which had to help on the wear and tear.

Guess we'll find out in about 6 months.

Grossi can be a real dick at times, he goes at the players a lot. Tbh it was a very stupid question. Knowing the way Baker is and his attitude, not surprised he got upset. Baker seems pretty emotional which can be good but also can be bad. I don't think it affects his game but I think stupid shit bothers him way too much. Plain and simple, fat Kitchens needs to go for Baker to have a chance in this league imo.

Looking that way.

I think Baker actually cares about winning.

Cutler cared about his paycheck.

I see a not developed yet Favre...he has a lot to learn. A lot of great QB's had 2nd year struggles though and Favre was one of them.

Sure seems like it. dustin Fox just said Browns ran 12 personnel 8 times last game and it worked 7 times.

Earth to Freddie.........?

I just read something similar about that particular reporter.

The general consensus is he's a douche.

So, that puts the confrontation in a different context.

But, your QB is still pretty petulant.

Remember how he raged on the fired coach going to the Bengals?

Odell tried to woo Brady with gifts right in front of his face.....AFTER A LOSS.

Didn't say Shit.

He don't want that smoke.

And now he's two years older than that. As I said no way to prove any of this, but eventually the torch had to be passed and to many of us, this is the year
