If you don’t understand why he came back in, I got nothing for you.

How the Lakers doing?

The only person not understanding is you because I joked about Jokic.

Yes we know Giannis did attempt to stay pad to get a triple double, and we also heard about Jokic stat padding and saw him check into the game in the 4th up 17 points to get a triple double.

The Lakers are plagued by injuries and just bad all around play. They're just very inconsistent.

How's the Nuggets?

A team that was created in 1967 and been just good enough to never have won an NBA championship.

So is a simple joke about Jokic better, or should I about the history of the Nuggets as a franchise?

Thanks to you I'd rather do neither.

Good take overall but I feel like Bomani undervalued the importance of Andrew Wiggins on the court. The Warriors could not have won the championship last year without him and they need him to have any chance at succeeding this year.


What is Bomani insinuating about flu-like symptoms?

Anybody have an idea of the term he wouldn’t mention ahead of “personal reasons”?

Flu - Could be hangover or I just dont want to play.

And the other thing?

Is interesting.

Probably a Lebron dig.

I think it has more to do with Lebron's attitude\approach to the game which may have caused players not to "Fear" him.

I don't remember feeling of "Oh what's Lebron gonna do tonight" but I could be wrong.

Lebron was\is a dominant player and there was no stopping him in his prime. Teams game-planned against him, he was the man and the focal point of ever my team he's ever been on.

So it's kinda disrespectful to say that players didn't fear him but I can kinda get where Mario's coming from.

Because Lebron was always gonna do him and get the numbers needed to get the job done. Dammit it's just weird! :lol:

Its a bullsh*t lazy hot take sports talk topic

Go ask Indiana and the Raptors and the Celtics if they aint FEAR Lebron.

And what athlete is gonna ADMIT to being shook anyway?

Especially in 2023?

And WHO are the players claiming that no one was afraid of Lebron? (Mario soiled himself every time Bron barked at him)

Players RESPECTED Jordan there is a difference.

They HATED Jordan

that is a difference.

If you hated playing against an opponent? Would choose to NOT play that opponent?

Aint that fear ?

So trust me MANY players "feared" MJ, Lebron Kobe Shaq, Bird Magic Isiah etc etc etc

I hate modern sports media so f*cking much.

I really hope OKC gets in as the 8th seed. Def would be an Upset alert. SGA would average 40 that series.

No, but they're in fear of the matchup and what he can do on the court.

Similar to a boxer. If a boxer has knockout power. You don't fight in fear, but you do fear their knockout power and punch.

But you still go out and fight without looking.
