?? When did this happen?


Game 1 after JR incident.
Between when game ended and OT.
Talk about a group who was clueless in that situation.
Coaches totally responsible to make sure players know if there are any timeouts left.
That explains why James didnt know what to do, and prob why ref ignored him.
If he calls it and they dont have, its a technical.

Thanks for clarifying. First time I saw this.... Though I never saw Lebron trying to call time out either. I just saw him partially making the TO sign but never went through with it totally... But wow, how do you not know how many time outs left? I thought they had 1 left as well. Guess not

I agree that the primary responsibility is on the coaches to communicate the TO situation.

That said, on a veteran team the players share that responsibilty. Someone should have asked. As bright and in tune as LeBron always is, I expect him to know the timeout situation at the end of a game.

Bob Myers explains how Klay Thompson practically 'talks the injury out of existence'

On Monday morning, Warriors GM Bob Myers shared a pretty funny story about Klay that will only add to his legend.

"His mind -- it's almost like he doesn't allow himself the option of not playing," Myers exlained on KNBR 680. "The whole time he keeps saying to himself, over and over again out loud, he goes, 'I'm playing, I'm playing. I'm not sitting out, I'm not sitting out.' And he's just talking to himself.

"It's almost like he talks the injury out of existence. It's unbelievable."

So, if Brad Stevens was coaching Cleveland, is the series tied right now? Food for thought. I think so, because he would at least know to prep his players during the FTs to call a goddamn time out on a miss and rebound. Yes, JR Smith fucked up, but Lue didn't do his job.

These people who try to claim that Lebron somehow "invented" super teams, crack me up.

The first super teams I remember were the Showtime Lakers, the Bird Celtics and the Dr. J Sixers.

They were built in a different way than Lebron's super teams, but they were still super teams.

Yep. They just weren't created by FA.
