No.

That’s my point.

There needs to be a happy medium with him.

Clearly his pain threshold is as super human as the rest of him.

Someone needs to be able to save him from himself in these types of situations.

Im not blaming Ham.

Yeah, with the situation the way it is, they were in a bit of a Catch-22.

Lebron's too old to worry about saving him for future seasons and with AD out for 20 games and the rest of the roster being below average, the only way to stay within shouting distance of the playoffs was for Lebron to do what he did.

If he hadn't done what he did and the Lakers collapsed with AD out, then maybe they decide to punt the season and those trades don't get made.

Worst case, Lebron is out too long, they miss the playoffs and go into the off-season looking to make a couple of tweaks to a roster with a real chance to contend and not having to lean on AD and Lebron so much. Would love to see what this roster could do with a full training camp under its belt. Bet they'd start better than 2-10. lol

Without James they need to slow down the pace and play a lot more of a defensive game.

Which they can with Vanderbilt, Bamba and co. They have been playing better defense since the trades.

LOL...you should text your "suggestions & ideas" to Darvin Hamm.

I do it all the time to Kerr & Thibs.
They usually text back thanking me for the innovations and strategy insights.

Brogdon was such a huge trade pickup for Boston.

Celtics got him and white for 2 picks in the last 17% of the first round

No Adams tonight.

AD could go for 40 and 20.
