Dan Dakich thoughts on LeBron resting.

[Tide Run This]

Woke up middle of the night and heard that whiny fukkface Greenberg crying about this I figured this would be a talking point today.

 

[L&HH]

I'd like to see a teacher go teach in one city, then fly across the country to teach in another city.. then fly out to another city, teach a class... i bet you start hearing complaints about jet lag... This argument is stupid. He plays a sport professionally. That alone is taxing on the body, not to mention the travel and other obligations he has. If he needs or wants to rest a game, fukk it, rest.

HE also didn't account for practice time as well

About what?

Because other professions work long hours, Bron can't be tired?

About resting. LeBron can rest, he has the right to do so if he wants to. But I understand what the CAC is saying

fukk outta here talking about he tired though

How you tired and the season aint even a month old?

I don't know what the coli consensus is on this, but I definitely don't think the best player in the world, who is only 31, needs to be resting for regular season games. It's not like he's some fragile older player.

He wants to be the GOAT though you'll never be that Lebron

@Big Boss Bron needs more help

 

[Bilz]

Comparing desk jobs to athletic careers? He has to be trolling.

I am working 5 consecutive days this week for a total of 42 hours. Why does Justin Verlander need 4 days rest between 3 hour work stints? Shouldn't he suck it up and work every day like me?

it's unfair for the fans I would like NBA to eliminate back 2 backs or maybe lessen games so this doesn't happen

 

[desjardins]

His specific argument is dumb but I think it is kind of suspect for healthy players to be "resting" in a non contact sport.

I think that's the biggest thing cause you never know he's resting until leading up to damn near a hour before the game THEY should have a rule that they should at least give a same day notice that they are resting a player people go to see superstars I go to Cavs games to see lebron I think fans deserve to know at least 24 hours prior you have people spending money to hoping the see the stars they like play

Because he's been in multiple finals straight not to mention been in the league since 2003. Dude rarely gets injured so he plays more plus Olympic games as well athletes go through a lot man. Traveling is why Chris Bosh can't plsy anymore because flying back n forth constantly like that can affect your body

The biggest issue with back to backs is that they almost always involve at least one road game and it seems to be both more often than not. So it combines lack of rest with traveling and it results in what some coaches refer to as "scheduled losses". I am sure it saves a ton of money in hotel costs so I dont see that changing.

Players will still take games off. It doesn't happen nearly as often as people act like. I think the Spurs do it 2 or 3 times a year and people act like they do it once a week.

His age belies all the miles he has on his body already.

LeBron is not necessarily tired. I'm sure if he had to he would suit up. They're just giving him an extra day to recover. LeBron is at the point of career where he needs to pace himself.

 

[David_TheMan]

teachers over paid for the work they put in, on top of that, unions taking care of them after a certain amount of years and nevermaking them constantly be on it for their job.

fukk a teacher.

When a teacher can generate 100s of millions in revenue then they can compare themselves to LeBron James.
