This whole season is a throwaway for them, this season is all about finding which of their guys can play with LeBron and which ones can't, next year they'll be in position to add a guy to pair with LeBron and the team will look much different than this yearLook who they've played, all playoff teams, yet still there with a chance to win all three late. It's not easy playing with LeBron. 5 preseason
and 3 regular season games not enough time to see who fits.
The guy's a genetic freak, most athletes at his age are either retired or on their last legs, LeBron has shown a little slippage the past year or two, but he's still able to play at an extremely high level and probably has another few years left before father time catches himLeBron turns 34 in december
he might have a year left... this could be it at the high level
most of LA hates his guts, not many players want to play with him including KawhiThe guy's a genetic freak, most athletes at his age are either retired or on their last legs, LeBron has shown a little slippage the past year or two, but he's still able to play at an extremely high level and probably has another few years left before father time catches him
Bump
LeBron Raymone James is the best player in basketball, you guys can annoint a new guy every 2 weeks but ain't a damn thing changed. Kashiw 10-pts better than Derozan? Well LBJ has probably had about 7 to 8 better playoff runs than Kawhi just had and his last one, last year, was arguably his best (according to VORP, the best ever).
truealso looks like lakers still suck with lebron
bad price, but great betmy lakers miss playoff bet ay +375 looking good
When Kawhi met Lebron in Finals, Kawhi had ownership on him. made james basically disappear
LOL. The year Kawhi won his faux Finals MVP? LBJ deserved that but it was tough to give it to him because I think the series went 5?
Kawhi played like 70 fucking games in 2 years and LBJ played 100+ on AVG for 8 years and had a Playoff run Kawhi could only dream of at the end of it. I literally just checks, LBJ, at least by VORP standards, had 7 better playoff runs than Kawhi's most recent... Who's the best?
Fuck the numbers. I saw him play, he ain't LBJ, he just isn't. If he was, I would Christen him, "Kawhi the Usurper," but I can't in good conscience do that because it's not true, at least to my eyes and mind.
"Kawhi the Usurper" does not roll off the tongue well.
Interesting to note: Kawhi's Raptors were 58-24 during the regular season while DeMar's Raptors in the 2017-18 season were 59-23.
Against the spread, Kawhi's team was only 38-44 while DeMar's last squad was 44-38.
Point differential: Kawhi's team was +6.0; DeMar's team was 7.8.
