Lebron should give it 3 more days and go on the 29th

 

[Shanemansj13]

That sounds like limited minutes

 

[Wamu]

No in a recent interview when asked who he liked growing up he said Kobe not Lebron. Then he went on to say why he didn’t like Lebrons game because he wasn’t strong and uber athletic like Lebron so basically he couldn’t relate to his game. All it was.

Thanks for the explanation.

 

[thunderc]

He loves the Thunder Organization.

He likely doesn’t love that it’s in Oklahoma.

Dude has 3 kids.

He isn’t leaving his wife, mom, business, young daughter to play in OKC.

Fine with me lol. I’m just saying Lebron isn’t one to throw around praise to things he isn’t involved with. I do thing he was probably dissing Pelinka a bit at the time.

Yeah seems like the smart move but every game is so crucial. If GS loses and LA wins, they are 1/2 game back from the 6 seed.

 

[Wamu]

He said it like a week ago.

He didn’t like Lebron’s game because he doesn’t have the same skill set, athleticism.

So, he paid more attention to guys who played the way he was capable of playing.

That’s the quote.

Bronsexuals took that as a diss.

Well those LeBron nut-huggers are a goofy bunch anyway.

Probably some of the same people that worshiped him for 7 years. Then hated him for 4 years. Then worshiped him again for 4 year. Only to hate him again.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I don’t think Presti would want Lebron the sideshow.

Lebron the basketball player and mind, sure.

But, you can’t have one without the other.

Why would he want his franchise to be held hostage like that?

Thunder are a Grass Roots organization, compared to the big business machine of the Lakers.

They are trying to build something sustainable.

Having the 1 year Lebron circus come to town is counterproductive in nature.

Fans would show up in droves to see Lebron and his mini me.

What is going to happen when Bronny’s ass is glued to the bench in favor of Isiah Joe or Lindy Waters?

With all that being said….

100% agree that James himself would not want to go to OKC.

Not even for a season.

Everything he loves is in LA….

Family, friends, business.

Yeah I never thought he would go to OKC so very hypothetical from the start. His home is LA now

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Yeah seems like the smart move but every game is so crucial. If GS loses and LA wins, they are. 1/2 game back from the 6 seed.

No doubt.

Just feel like having a chance with a 2 day layoff between games is a nice opportunity go get the last bit of rest.

 

[Shanemansj13]

You are ridiculous.

Did @DJ start all this? LOL

 

[Mecca]

Dunno…only went back 1 page…lol

Yeah, that’s my reasons for Lebron, business.

For the Thunder?

Can’t have a guy on the roster that has a name bigger than the one on the front of the Jersey.

Would they want Lebron the basketball player, absolutely.

It’s the clown car that comes with him that’s the problem.

 

[thunderc]

Dunno…only went back 1 page…lol

Well you know it wasn’t me lol!

 

[Mecca]

Fine with me lol. I’m just saying Lebron isn’t one to throw around praise to things he isn’t involved with. I do thing he was probably dissing Pelinka a bit at the time.

Both an be true.

What Presti did in the Durant era was magnificent.

What he’s doing now is special.

 

[Mecca]

That sounds like limited minutes

I just don’t want him to get hurt again.

I need the Lakers to snuff Denver…lol

 

[thunderc]

Both an be true.

Just need Chet to pan out and this last draft is extremely special.

 

[Mecca]

No doubt.

Just feel like having a chance with a 2 day layoff between games is a nice opportunity go get the last bit of rest.

This whole thing is another reason why it’s hard to have Lebron on your roster.

What was the point of him throwing piss water on the report saying he was returning, only to return SOONER?

He just loves the drama….lol

 

[msgkings322]

Also as long as giddey & sga are still on the team, drafting bronny wouldn't make much sense as he isn't a need for them

Drafting Bronny fills a different need...

Yes
