Lebron was going to get that record, now he has it.

And hasn't played a minute since.

And hasn't played a minute since.

He may have tweaked something against the Thunder, we will see how it works out.

lol , while the superstar studded douches load mgmt themselves, a team like the Knicks led by a real baller , Julius Randle , hasn’t missed a game, gonna surprise!!

Go Knicks

Or maybe Ham shouldn’t be playing him 40 mins a night. He shouldn’t have to suffer on a bad roster and playing that many minutes just to win games or still lose. Nobody ever is playing this kind of minutes at his age. Gotta expect his body will need stretches to take off games at this point

Do you honestly think Ham has control over how many minutes Lebron plays?

 

[shopson67]

Agree…

Last night tho, the home crowd, fallin in love with Hart, Breen commented durin game that Hart would be gettin more time, and he said it was Barrets time he would be gettin.

they were Crakin on Barret often, he even walked off court directly to locker room with no apparent injury late in game .

‘ Barret had a bad game , but he usually bounces back…yes he has but havin a 30 pt game in between 5 bad ones is going to hold this team back from going deep if they get in.

Not being delusional here, the East is all F’ed up now, and if they get Robinson back healthy, it could get interesting.

I definitely thought the extension was a bad decision. I never saw what other people see in Barrett.

Love Hart though, good get there.

Boston has a very bigly game tonight.

Does the Greek Freak have a valid passport?

Go Celtics!

He wanted that record THAT night, pushed too hard I guess. Weird that there wasn't a limp or anything until he wanted to sit.

Celtics gonna have some guys out... but they might have a ton of guys out...

... all of Tatum, RWIII, Grant Williams and Brogdon are game-time decisions.

Smart and Brown will definitely be out, of course.

Thanks for the update.

If those four don't play it'll get ugly quick.

Nah... Sam Hauser will just hit 15 3's... AND put the glove of Giannis on the defensive end.

Ironically the sixers with Harris contract are a solid match

Harris is an untradeable asset until trade deadline next season or possibly this off season at the earliest. Even if a team likes his fit and his game, they can’t justify taking on that contract number. That flips this summer. Honestly, if this year of Embiid Harden doesn’t work, I think it’s time for the Sixers to do the same thing. Embiid will never have more value in a trade. You want to explore it before he gets in his feels and makes it a public pronouncement dooching his value. You let Harden walk. You build around Maxey and another tank with a heavy lean on what comes back in an Embiid trade.

Well....

That was a bit of a clusterfuck last night!

I agree

You should trade embiid to Boston

 

[fightinfunbags]

Jaylen Brown, RWIII, Grant Williams, 4 first round picks. You in?

Slightly exaggerated, but not by a lot...

I think everyone knows Embiid is not getting traded

 

[fightinfunbags]

This is if the Embiid/Harden group yet again can’t get to at least an ECF. How many more times do you need to do the same thing over and over again expecting a different result? You can’t wait too long to deal an asset or it will be seriously diminished. Look at the Nets. They didn’t close to value for Harden, Kyrie, or KD. That’s three deals where they took less on a diminished asset.

 

[fightinfunbags]

I don’t think it is. He’s under contract for the next 3 years with a player option in year 4. 1 All Star caliber player. 2 role players. 4 firsts which would likely be 20 or later seems about right.
