right, they don't even need to make that trade.

They're fine just the way they are.

Let another team get fox who would need him.
Exactly

Not as much as lusting after him, like the guy you quoted does.

Bron haters use homosexuality to shame his fans from promoting him during the season. But never use homosexuality to shame his haters who troll him everyday. Bron has been a loving marriage for 12 years, but Savannah so dark skinned, Fagstanza doesn't acknowledge her. It's why I don't mind @Amajorfucup stance towards Dwight. Gays are sick people that need to go.

Look around the NBA of some of the teams who are doing better under a white coach compared to a black coach because not a lot of black coaches last long in the NBA.

I want a black coach to be successful and win multiple championships.

Noticed I didn't say all, of course there and were black coaches who won a championship.

White men have bigger brains than Black men. That's why. :rolleyes:

This is why Phil Jackson gets so much credit as a coach. He worked magic with the Lakers by having success in spite of having two of the biggest malcontents in NBA history. (Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant)

Pay attention to how little credit Kobe stans give Phil today. He's almost never mentioned.

He is a losing mentality player. He is not dominant enough on the scoring end to make up for his defensive deficiencies, poor 3 pt average and lack of consistency with regards to per game assist average.

He needs a Draymond Green type big to run the offense, ala Curry.

That shit he pulled with Brown was seriously suspect. Give up a 4 point play to lose the game, get called out. Fuck it, send the only coach responsible for getting him to the playoffs to the unemployment line.

Some team will over pay for him, but he will end up like Beale and Dame. Super talented, but just not a driver towards a championship.

Not one team would trade Jrue Holiday for him, and Jrue is old.

Chandler parsons talking about "deserves" :lol: ... A mediocre cac that signed a $100 million deal and went on to average 15 games a season and 5ppg. :smh:
He's right though, bronny isn't helping the Lakers win basketball games.

Lakers did that to please bron. Whether people want to admit it or not. It's facts.

Pleasing Bron wasnt the determining factor. If that were the case they would have traded for Buddy Heild two years ago and made the roster moves Bron has requested including hiring Ty Lue 3 years ago. they signed Bronny mainly because hes a cash cow. And the continued discussion over him is beyond ridiculous. Who gives a fuck if hes called up for the 15th roster spot? Do you really think ANYONE they call in that slot would make a fucking difference? Do you even know the 15th man on the sixers team?

That wasn't reckless. You're taught to dive for the ball. It happens all the time on every level.

His teammates were taught the same things that he was taught, but none of them would have dove like that. Even if he didn't hurt Ivey, he still would have fouled him. You have to be aware of your surroundings.

Cole routinely does stupid/unnecessary shit in an effort to get more playing time. He knows that if he doesn't produce in his 5-10 minutes on the floor, he'll be on the bench the rest of game.

This causes him to jack threes, pick up silly fouls while trying to steal the ball or get a chase down block, etc.

Sometimes it works out well and it helps us. Other times it really hurts us.

What are you talking about?

I'm specifically talking about diving on the floor for a loose ball.

That's basketball 101 from rec league to hustle and dive on the floor for the ball. That's nothing unusual and you see it multiple times a game. The only difference is that Ivey was right there.

Take the emotion out of it from the injury, nothing was wrong with the play. this wasn't Beverly diving at Russ' leg trying to injure him.

Who cares what you recall.

Rude.

I pay enough attention that if I don’t recall it, it likely didn’t happen.

And why would you think that would be something they openly admit or discuss?

“They”? I wasn’t referring to the Lakers re: “talk”, I was referring to the general dialogue. If that really was a factor, the analysts should have picked up on it.

I would kill that big dumb muthafucka. And i dont mean that facetiously either.

People relentlessly denounce Draymond as toxic because one day he punched someone actively talking shit during training camp, but honestly, compare Draymond & Steph as locker room leaders to Shaq & Kobe.

On the court, Shaq/Kobe is arguably the greatest combo ever. But in the locker room, goddamn...

Herro deserves it way more than jimmy

I was trying to see if you would say that!

I did not have an opinion but I just looked up their comparative stats and it does seem pretty clear cut.

Herro is carrying the heat
Jimmy has missed 1/3 of the season and Bam has had a rough start offensively
