Dan Dakich thoughts on LeBron resting.

fukk this salty cac

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Espn aint payin him shyt and he's pissed because he set his fan duel lineup 8 hours before the game and forgot to look at his lineup to see that he was ruled out for the game

 

[resurrection]

Go sit your dumbass down somewhere breh.

I'm not the one you punk ass fakkit. If you wanna debate me, make a point. Otherwise, you sit the fukk down

He's been in the NBA since he was 19. He's made the playoffs damn near every year of his career. 6 straight finals appearances, Olympics. ....but you know what you're right. He has no reason to be tired.

I'm not saying he shouldn't be tired, come on breh that's clearly not what I was saying. Of course he's going to be tired given his workload. And I'm not going to bring in "regular" jobs into the discussion because it's a stupid argument. But there's hundreds of pro athletes in every sport that wouldn't miss a game unless they are hurt. I mean, I'm not saying he's not tired or doesn't have the "right" to rest if he wants to - of course he does. I just think it's a dikk move, that's all.

Are you only concerned about his age, or the amount of Games played since he was 18?????

Dude has played the most games the past 6 years than any player in a 6 year stretch in league history

Yeah his workload is insane. I don't think it's a matter of "he doesn't have the right" or "the team doesn't have the right" or "he owes it to the fans" or anything like they'd say on Mike & Mike or whatever. Of course he and the team can do what they want. I just think it's a little early in his life and career, even given his number of minutes, to think his body is in danger of breaking down if he doesn't sit the second game of a back to back or whatever. Basically it seems to me like it makes a small difference for him, but a HUGE difference to so many fans who wanted to come out just to see him.

I just think of it like it's not very considerate of the paying customer whose point of view should be respected. Them NBA tickets are pricey. But honestly to me it's not some grave injustice or worth droning on and debating about or anything because I definitely see where you guys are coming from. I'd personally just rather see the dude play and wait until deeper in his career to start taking random rests

Hasnt Lebron lobbied for the regular season to be shortened? Pretty obvious this is what he's trying to do by sitting out randomly.

Sorry friend.

Yeah his workload is insane. I don't think

You could have stopped here because it's pretty obvious.

He's not a robot.

 

[L. Deezy]

Did this mufukka call out Popavich who basically started this shyt? Pop would do it in marquee games.

Could have stopped there if I wanted to pretend as if only one factor exists in this discussion, but I didn't because there are plenty of other dimensions to the argument. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a thread or any discussion about this, we'd all just shrug our shoulders and say 'well of course he took a day off, his workload is crazy'

 

[mr. smoke weed]

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

What if LeHenny got the flu?

Nah. Sometimes shyt is as simple as putting a thought into a statement. You obviously didn't which is why your post is one of the more questioned and rightfully scrutinized posts in this thread.

 

[King Jove]

comparing being a professional athlete to working a regular job is almost always a bad look.

I bet bron is losing his mind he didn't consult you over whatever the fukk he did now

 

[JP_614]

What if LeHenny got the flu?

I would hope to know prior to tip off or at least 8 to 10 hours before the game

 

[GhostoftheMan]

Harpo, who this woman

 

[NYC Rebel]

@resurrection made being tired "a right".

That shyt is involuntary as a mug!!!
